SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

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

What problem does it solve?

Persistent planning artifacts and a structured, on-disk workflow help teams organize and track complex tasks across sessions. It provides a Manus-style approach to break down work, maintain goals, and recover context after interruptions by using task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md as the external memory.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent planning artifacts: task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md act as the working memory, goals, and session logs.
  • Phase-based tracking: predefined phases with status, allowing clear progress visibility and recovery after sessions.
  • Context refresh and recovery: re-read the plan before decisions and support automatic session recovery.

Quick Start

Create task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md in your project root to begin outlining phases and tracking progress.

What is a markdown-driven workflow for breaking down complex multi-step tasks?▼

A markdown-driven workflow breaks down complex multi-step tasks by creating and maintaining task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md files to track phases, status, and session recovery.

How do I set up persistent plan files to track project progress and phases?▼

To set up persistent plan files, create task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md in your project root to begin outlining predefined phases, logging sessions, and tracking status.

Can I automatically recover context after an interruption using markdown planning files?▼

Yes, context recovery after interruptions is supported by re-reading the markdown planning files before decisions, allowing the workflow to automatically restore the previous session state.

Does this task planning workflow require any external dependencies or libraries?▼

No external dependencies or libraries are required to run this task planning workflow, as it relies entirely on markdown files and internal scripts to manage the planning lifecycle.

When should I use persistent planning files for project management instead of standard task lists?▼

Persistent planning files should be used for complex projects, research, or tasks requiring many tool interactions where standard task lists fail to maintain context across sessions.
