planning-with-files

planning-with-files is a skill for Claude Code from LuizEduPP/Rememb. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,861 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of planning-with-files, MIT.

A file-based planning method for complex, multi-step work. It stores plans, discoveries, and progress in Markdown files so the work can continue across long sessions.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for breaking projects or research into tasks, recording findings, restoring context, and tracking progress across tool calls or sessions.
Why use it?
It reduces the risk of losing decisions, research findings, or unfinished steps when the conversation becomes long or the session stops.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

planning-with-files scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/check-complete.ps1, scripts/check-complete.sh, scripts/init-session.ps1, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 244 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Planning with Files

Work like Manus: Use persistent markdown files as your "working memory on disk."

Overview

Use persistent project files to store task state, discoveries, and progress so long-running work survives context limits and session resets.

Optional Host Integration

Some AI hosts support hooks, tool restrictions, or lifecycle automation. Treat those as optional enhancements, not required behavior. The core workflow in this document should still work in any IDE, editor, CLI, or chat app.

First: Restore Context

Before doing anything else, check if planning files exist and read them:

  1. If task_plan.md exists, read task_plan.md, progress.md, and findings.md immediately.
  2. Then check for unsynced context from a previous session:
# Linux/macOS
$(command -v python3 || command -v python) <skill-root>/scripts/session-catchup.py "$(pwd)"
# Windows PowerShell
& (Get-Command python -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Source "<skill-root>/scripts/session-catchup.py" (Get-Location)

If catchup report shows unsynced context:

  1. Run git diff --stat to see actual code changes
  2. Read current planning files
  3. Update planning files based on catchup + git diff
  4. Then proceed with task

Where Files Go

  • Templates are in <skill-root>/templates/
  • Your planning files go in your project directory
Location What Goes There
Skill directory (<skill-root>/) Templates, scripts, reference docs
Your project directory task_plan.md, findings.md, progress.md

Quick Start

Before ANY complex task:

  1. Create task_plan.md — Use templates/task_plan.md as reference
  2. Create findings.md — Use templates/findings.md as reference
  3. Create progress.md — Use templates/progress.md as reference
  4. Re-read plan before decisions — Refreshes goals in attention window
  5. Update after each phase — Mark complete, log errors

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
