SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps manage complex, multi-step tasks by using persistent markdown files as a structured "working memory," preventing information loss and ensuring progress tracking.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured Planning: Creates task_plan.md to outline phases, goals, and decisions.
  • Information Capture: Uses findings.md to store research and discoveries, and progress.md for session logs.
  • Session Recovery: Includes mechanisms to resume work after interruptions.
  • Use Case: When tackling a large software development project, use this Skill to break down the work into phases, track decisions made, log encountered errors, and ensure all research findings are saved, providing a clear roadmap and history.

Quick Start

Use the planning-with-files skill to create task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md in the current directory.

FAQPage Schema
How do I track progress for complex multi-step tasks using markdown files?

Structured planning with markdown files breaks down complex tasks into phases, goals, and decisions using task_plan.md. It serves as a persistent working memory that prevents information loss during multi-step software development or research projects.

How do I recover an agentic workflow session after an interruption?

You can recover agentic sessions by reading the progress.md and findings.md files generated during previous work. These markdown files log session history and store research, enabling seamless resumption of interrupted multi-step tasks.

What is the best way to organize task breakdown and decisions for large projects?

Organizing task breakdown and decisions for large projects is best handled by a file-based planning system that creates task_plan.md to outline phases, goals, and decisions. This provides a clear roadmap and ensures all project decisions are documented.

Does file-based task management work for capturing research findings during development?

Yes, file-based task management captures research findings using a dedicated findings.md file. This stores all research and discoveries alongside your task plan, ensuring that information encountered during complex development is persisted and easily referenced.
