About
The Planning with Files skill implements a high-performance 'Manus-style' workflow that uses your project's filesystem as external working memory. By maintaining persistent task plans, research findings, and progress logs directly in your working directory, this skill overcomes the limitations of LLM context windows and ensures Claude remains focused during long-running or multi-step tasks. It enforces strict protocols like the '2-action rule' for saving findings and a '3-strike' error handling strategy, making it indispensable for deep research, complex code migrations, and any task requiring high reliability across multiple tool calls.
