Does this skill integrate with documentation?

Yes, it includes documentation coordination triggers that delegate updates to a docs-manager whenever major milestones or architectural changes occur.

What metadata is required for project tracking?

Plans must include YAML frontmatter containing the title, status (pending, in-progress, completed), priority, effort, and relevant tags.

How does this skill handle session continuity?

It uses a unique 'hydration' pattern that reads persistent .md plan files and recreates session-scoped tasks, allowing Claude to resume work exactly where it left off.

What is the Mandatory Sync-Back Guard?

The Sync-Back Guard ensures that when a plan is updated, every phase file is reconciled and checkboxes are updated to prevent stale data in the project history.

Coordinates project progress by syncing persistent plans with ephemeral Claude tasks and generating detailed status reports.

The Project Management skill provides a robust framework for project oversight and coordination within Claude Code. It bridges the gap between persistent Markdown plan files and session-scoped Claude Tasks using a specialized 'hydration' pattern, allowing for seamless cross-session continuity. By automating task tracking, progress reconciliation, and documentation triggers, this skill ensures that project statuses remain accurate and that implementation always aligns with the underlying requirements and acceptance criteria.
