-## Backend selection
+## Task backends
 
 By default, the extension auto-detects the first applicable backend. If none are applicable, it falls back to `todo-md`.
 
-Set `PI_TASKS_BACKEND` to explicitly choose a backend implementation.
-Currently supported values:
+For most setups, `sq` is recommended as the default backend. It is lightweight, works well in brand new directories, and can create its local data on demand. Install it from the [`sq` installation guide](https://github.com/DerekStride/sq?tab=readme-ov-file#installation).

-- `sq`
-- `todo-md`
+### Supported backends:
 
-### Sift Queue (`sq`) backend
+- [sq](https://github.com/DerekStride/sq) - Uses the `sq` cli to manage tasks in a `.sift` directory via a `issues.jsonl` file. No initialization necessary.
+- [beads](https://github.com/steveyegge/beads) - Uses the `bd` cli to manage tasks into a `.beads` directory containing multiple files.
+- `todo-md` - Creates or reads a `TODO.md` file with different sections to emulate priority.
 
-The `sq` backend integrates with [sift-queue](https://github.com/shopify-playground/sift) and reads/writes tasks through the `sq` CLI.
+## Optional env vars:
 
-### TODO.md backend
-
-The `todo-md` backend reads/writes a markdown task file (default: `TODO.md`; if `todo.md` already exists, it is used).
