planning-with-files

What it does

Long agent tasks fall apart when the conversation context is lost. This keeps the plan, the findings and the progress in three files on disk and re-injects them each turn, so work continues across clears, crashes and compaction, and it installs into sixty-plus agent tools as a skill. It does not reduce the underlying risk of letting an agent change files - back things up, and keep it to a dedicated folder since the agent rewrites those three files.
