SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables teams to manage multi-session tasks with a persistent, three-file state machine, ensuring tasks are paused between sessions until user permission.

Core Features & Use Cases

Stateful task tracking across sessions using .claude/tasks.md, .claude/requirements.md, .claude/session.md
NO auto-advancement or automatic commits; user controls pacing
Supports continuity across sessions and recovery after interruptions

Quick Start

Describe your tasks, outline requirements, and I will initialize .claude/tasks.md, .claude/requirements.md, and .claude/session.md in your project root. Then say "continue" to resume and the system will read .claude/session.md and route based on Status.

FAQPage Schema

How do I maintain task management state across multiple Claude sessions?▼

Multi-session task management requires a persistent state machine using files like .claude/tasks.md, .claude/requirements.md, and .claude/session.md to save checklists, specs, and routing data for recovery.

How do I set up persistent checklists for project workflow in Claude?▼

To set up persistent checklists, describe your tasks and outline requirements to initialize .claude/tasks.md and .claude/requirements.md in your project root, then use a session file to track execution status.

Can I pause task execution between sessions and resume later?▼

Yes, session persistence pauses task execution between sessions without auto-advancement, requiring explicit user permission to advance so you maintain full control over the project workflow pacing.

What is the best way to recover an interrupted multi-session project workflow?▼

Recovering an interrupted project workflow involves reading the .claude/session.md file to route the state machine back to the correct phase, ensuring task continuity after unexpected interruptions.

Does this task management state machine automatically commit my progress?▼

No, the task management workflow enforces strict rules with no auto-advancement and no automatic commits, ensuring tasks are paused between sessions until explicit user permission is granted.

When should I not use a state-driven multi-session task workflow?▼

A state-driven task workflow is unnecessary for single-session tasks or simple projects that do not require strict execution verification, session recovery, or persistent requirement tracking across interruptions.
