Batch-process a backlog of unread articles into a decision list

The prompt
I have a backlog of saved articles/links I never got to, here are the titles and one-line summaries: article_backlog. My current priorities are: current_priorities.
Sort the whole backlog into exactly four buckets: Read This Week (directly relevant to a current priority, genuinely worth the time), Skim Only (extract the key takeaway from the title/summary alone rather than reading in full, and write that takeaway for me), Archive for Reference (not urgent but might matter later, tag with a topic), and Delete (no longer relevant, say why). For every Skim Only item, actually write the 1-2 sentence takeaway you'd expect based on the summary given, so I get value without reading it. Be decisive, don't put more than 3 items in Read This Week or the exercise defeats its purpose.

Example output
Out of 20 saved articles, Read This Week keeps exactly 3 tied directly to a stated priority of "evaluating a new CRM," including a comparison piece. Skim Only holds 9 items, each with a written takeaway, e.g. an article on remote team culture gets "core claim: async standups outperform live ones past 8 team members, worth remembering but not reading in full now." Archive for Reference tags 5 items under topics like "pricing-strategy" and "hiring." Delete removes 3 outdated items, one explicitly noted as "about a product feature that shipped differently than described, no longer accurate."
