planning-with-files

Quick Review

Excellent skill that teaches AI agents to use persistent markdown files for complex task management. The description clearly indicates when to invoke this skill (complex tasks, multi-step projects, planning mentions). SKILL.md provides comprehensive knowledge including templates, workflows, critical rules, and anti-patterns. Structure is well-organized with clear sections and references to examples.md and reference.md for deeper patterns. Novelty is solid—while file-based planning isn't revolutionary, the systematic 3-file pattern with attention window management and explicit workflow loops meaningfully reduces token costs for multi-step tasks. Minor deduction on structure as SKILL.md is somewhat dense (could be more concise with more delegated to reference files), and novelty isn't maximum since experienced agents might already use similar patterns. Overall, this is a high-quality skill that would substantially improve agent efficiency on complex workflows.
