planning-with-files
65 / 100 · Review before installing
Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a productivity skill usually connects to your mail, calendar or notes.
Manus-style persistent file-based planning for AI coding agents: keeps task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md on disk so work survives context loss and /clear. Use when asked to plan out, break down, or organize a multi-step project, research task, or any work requiring 5+ tool calls. Supports automatic session recovery after /clear.

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'planning-with-files' ~/.claude/skills/'planning-with-files' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
