Implements Manus-style workflow using persistent markdown files for task planning, progress tracking, notes, and deliverables in multi-step tasks, research, or organization.

> "Work like Manus" — Uses persistent markdown files for planning, progress tracking, and knowledge storage.
Uses persistent markdown files (task_plan.md, findings.md, progress.md) in project directories as working memory for planning and tracking complex tasks.
Organizes complex tasks with persistent Markdown files (task_plan.md, findings.md, progress.md) for planning, analysis, progress tracking, and multi-step projects. Auto-recovers sessions post-/clear.
Sets up persistent 3-file markdown workflow (task_plan.md, findings.md, progress.md) for planning phases, tracking progress, and logging findings across AI coding sessions.
Share bugs, ideas, or general feedback.
"Work like Manus" — Uses persistent markdown files for planning, progress tracking, and knowledge storage.
A Claude Code skill that transforms your workflow to use persistent markdown files for planning and progress tracking — the pattern that made Manus AI worth billions.
Claude Code (and most AI agents) suffer from:
For every complex task, create THREE files:
task_plan.md → Track phases and progress
notes.md → Store research and findings
[deliverable].md → Final output
1. Create task_plan.md with goal and phases
2. Research → save to notes.md → update task_plan.md
3. Read notes.md → create deliverable → update task_plan.md
4. Deliver final output

| Principle | Implementation |
|---|---|
| Filesystem as memory | Store in files, not context |
| Attention manipulation | Re-read plan before decisions |
| Error persistence | Log failures in plan file |
| Goal tracking | Checkboxes show progress |
| Append-only context | Never modify history |
