planning-with-files

Recover your project planning state after session resets by using persistent planning files like task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md. These artifacts automatically restore centralized phase tracking and task context without manual reconstruction.

File-based planning is a structured approach that organizes complex tasks by creating and managing task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md artifacts. It tracks project phases deterministically to maintain focus throughout long-running workflows.

Track progress across long-running research phases by maintaining dedicated planning files. A defined task_plan.md lifecycle combined with findings.md and progress.md provides centralized phase tracking and organizes work deterministically across many tool calls.

Yes, file-based planning is designed for tasks requiring many tool calls. It maintains task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md to provide deterministic planning and centralized phase tracking, ensuring continuity across complex workflows.

Use persistent planning files for long-running projects, multi-step research, or complex tasks requiring session recovery. This approach satisfies deterministic planning requirements and maintains centralized phase tracking through a defined task_plan.md lifecycle.

Deterministic planning for complex tasks is best structured using a defined task_plan.md lifecycle alongside findings.md and progress.md artifacts. This method ensures automatic session recovery and centralized phase tracking across long-running workflows.
