SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a robust, persistent planning system for AI coding agents, ensuring that work survives context loss and clear commands. It's ideal for complex tasks requiring multiple steps and tool calls.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent Planning: Utilizes markdown files to maintain context across clear commands, enabling continuous progress on complex tasks.
  • File-based Session Management: Saves task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md on disk, allowing for seamless session recovery.
  • Automated Session Recovery: Automatically recovers unsynced context from previous sessions to ensure continuity.
  • Parallel Task Workflow: Supports parallel task workflows with isolated plan directories for each session.
  • Use Case: When developing a software project that involves multiple steps, use this Skill to keep track of each phase, research findings, and progress.

Quick Start

Initialize a new planning session with the command ./scripts/init-session.sh "Project Name".

FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain AI coding agent context across clear commands?

To maintain AI coding agent context across clear commands, use a persistent file-based planning system that saves session state in markdown files on disk, ensuring continuous progress on complex tasks without losing prior context.

How do I recover an interrupted AI coding session?

Recover an interrupted AI coding session using automated session recovery, which reads unsynced context from previously saved planning files like task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md to seamlessly restore workflow continuity.

Can I run parallel AI coding tasks with isolated planning contexts?

Yes, you can run parallel AI coding tasks by using isolated plan directories for each session, allowing multiple complex software development workflows to operate simultaneously without overwriting each other's findings and progress.

What is file-based session management for software development workflows?

File-based session management for software development workflows is a technique that stores task plans, research findings, and progress tracking as markdown files, enabling persistent state management and context preservation for multi-step coding agents.

How do I initialize a new planning session for a complex coding task?

Initialize a new planning session for a complex coding task by running the initialization script with your project name as an argument, which sets up the required markdown files and directory structure for context preservation.
