Where are the planning files stored?

Planning files like task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md are stored directly in your project root for persistence, while the skill's templates remain in the skill directory.

Why use file-based planning instead of just talking to Claude?

Standard context windows are volatile and limited. Writing plans and findings to disk ensures that goals and discoveries are never lost, even during long sessions or after using the /clear command.

How does the 3-Strike Error Protocol work?

It provides a structured path for handling errors: Attempt 1 is for Diagnosis & Fix, Attempt 2 for an Alternative Approach, and Attempt 3 for a Broader Rethink, followed by user escalation if all three fail.

What is the 2-Action Rule in this skill?

The 2-Action Rule is a protocol that requires Claude to save key findings to text files after every two search, view, or browser operations to prevent information loss from the context window.

生产力与工作流

Implements a persistent, file-based workflow to manage complex projects and prevent context loss in Claude sessions.

This skill equips Claude with a robust project management framework inspired by Manus, utilizing standardized Markdown files—task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md—as persistent 'working memory' on disk. By enforcing strict protocols like the 2-Action Rule and a 3-Strike Error Protocol, it enables Claude to handle multi-step development tasks, deep research, and complex debugging with high reliability, ensuring that critical information survives session resets and context window limitations.

主要功能
