Organize Complex Work with Planning Files
Complex AI work can lose goals, decisions, and research details across long sessions. This skill uses persistent Markdown files to keep planning, notes, and deliverables visible.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "planning-with-files" from https://skillstore.io/skills/ammarcodes-planning-with-files.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/ammarcodes-planning-with-files/manifest.

- A notes file with source names and synthesized findings.
- A final summary file that references the saved notes.
Using "planning-with-files". Fix a login defect in an application.
Expected outcome:
- A plan showing investigation, root cause, implementation, and test phases.

- A completion summary with verification results and remaining risks.
Security Audit
SafeI found no evidence of executable commands, prompt injection, data exfiltration, or host reconnaissance in the reviewed files. The static command findings are Markdown filenames, code fences, and pseudo agent steps that document a planning workflow. Some pseudo steps are labeled as bash, which may trigger scanners.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: HighWhat You Can Build
Coordinate a Bug Fix
Developers can map investigation, root cause notes, implementation steps, and verification before editing code.
Organize Research
Analysts can store sources, compare findings, and convert notes into a structured summary.
Manage Long Deliverables
Writers can track drafts, decisions, blockers, and final sections across a multi-stage document.
Try These Prompts
Use planning-with-files for this task. Create a task_plan.md with the goal, phases, key questions, and current status.
Use the three-file pattern for this research task. Keep sources and findings in notes.md, then create a concise final deliverable.
Plan this implementation with task_plan.md. Record decisions, errors, files investigated, and verification steps before delivering the result.
Read the existing task_plan.md and notes.md. Reconstruct the current state, update the plan, then continue from the next incomplete phase.
Best Practices
- Use the pattern only when a task has several phases or needs saved context.
- Read the plan before major decisions and update it after completed phases.
- Keep sensitive details out of planning files unless the workspace is trusted.
Avoid
- Creating planning files for simple questions or quick one-step tasks.
- Storing large notes without linking them to the task goal.
- Leaving status, errors, or decisions stale after important changes.
