  <strong>Your agent's context window dies. The plan does not.</strong>

Persistent file-based planning for AI coding agents and long-running agent tasks: the skill keeps <code>task_plan.md</code>, <code>findings.md</code>, and <code>progress.md</code> on disk and re-injects them every turn, so the plan survives context loss, <code>/clear</code>, crashes, and compaction. Manus-style working memory on disk, with an opt-in completion gate. Installs across 60+ agents via the Agent Skills standard.
