Planning with Files

Saves an AI coding agent's plan in files, so it can resume where it left off after its memory resets.

Fast-rising

What it does

AI coding agents have a limited working memory, called the context window. When it fills up or is cleared, the agent can lose track of what it was doing.

This skill keeps three plain files in your project: a task plan, a findings log and a progress log. It reminds the agent of the plan on every turn, and can stop the agent from finishing before the plan is marked complete.

Its makers say it works with many agents, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and GitHub Copilot.

Who it's for

Developers who run long tasks with AI coding agents and want them to stay on track.

Can I use it without coding?

Developers only. Installed into a coding agent with a terminal command or plug-in marketplace. New to this? Start here.

Try it

  1. Install the skill into your AI coding agent, such as Claude Code or Cursor, using the README's install guide.
  2. The agent then keeps its plan, notes and progress in three files in your project.
