# Planning with Files
|
||||
|
||||
Work like Manus: Use persistent markdown files as your "working memory on disk."
|
||||
|
||||
## FIRST: Check for Previous Session (v2.2.0)
|
||||
|
||||
**Before starting work**, check for unsynced context from a previous session:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/session-catchup.py "$(pwd)"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
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
|
||||
|
||||
## Important: Where Files Go
|
||||
|
||||
- **Templates** are in `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/`
|
||||
- **Your planning files** go in **your project directory**
|
||||
|
||||
| Location | What Goes There |
|
||||
|----------|-----------------|
|
||||
| Skill directory (`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_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](templates/task_plan.md) as reference
|
||||
2. **Create `findings.md`** — Use [templates/findings.md](templates/findings.md) as reference
|
||||
3. **Create `progress.md`** — Use [templates/progress.md](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
|
||||
|
||||
> **Note:** Planning files go in your project root, not the skill installation folder.
|
||||
|
||||
## The Core Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Context Window = RAM (volatile, limited)
|
||||
Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited)
|
||||
|
||||
→ Anything important gets written to disk.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## File Purposes
|
||||
|
||||
| File | Purpose | When to Update |
|
||||
|------|---------|----------------|
|
||||
| `task_plan.md` | Phases, progress, decisions | After each phase |
|
||||
| `findings.md` | Research, discoveries | After ANY discovery |
|
||||
| `progress.md` | Session log, test results | Throughout session |
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical Rules
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Create Plan First
|
||||
Never start a complex task without `task_plan.md`. Non-negotiable.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. The 2-Action Rule
|
||||
> "After every 2 view/browser/search operations, IMMEDIATELY save key findings to text files."
|
||||
|
||||
This prevents visual/multimodal information from being lost.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Read Before Decide
|
||||
Before major decisions, read the plan file. This keeps goals in your attention window.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Update After Act
|
||||
After completing any phase:
|
||||
- Mark phase status: `in_progress` → `complete`
|
||||
- Log any errors encountered
|
||||
- Note files created/modified
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Log ALL Errors
|
||||
Every error goes in the plan file. This builds knowledge and prevents repetition.
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Errors Encountered
|
||||
| Error | Attempt | Resolution |
|
||||
|-------|---------|------------|
|
||||
| FileNotFoundError | 1 | Created default config |
|
||||
| API timeout | 2 | Added retry logic |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Never Repeat Failures
|
||||
```
|
||||
if action_failed:
|
||||
next_action != same_action
|
||||
```
|
||||
Track what you tried. Mutate the approach.
|
||||
|
||||
## The 3-Strike Error Protocol
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
ATTEMPT 1: Diagnose & Fix
|
||||
→ Read error carefully
|
||||
→ Identify root cause
|
||||
→ Apply targeted fix
|
||||
|
||||
ATTEMPT 2: Alternative Approach
|
||||
→ Same error? Try different method
|
||||
→ Different tool? Different library?
|
||||
→ NEVER repeat exact same failing action
|
||||
|
||||
ATTEMPT 3: Broader Rethink
|
||||
→ Question assumptions
|
||||
→ Search for solutions
|
||||
→ Consider updating the plan
|
||||
|
||||
AFTER 3 FAILURES: Escalate to User
|
||||
→ Explain what you tried
|
||||
→ Share the specific error
|
||||
→ Ask for guidance
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Read vs Write Decision Matrix
|
||||
|
||||
| Situation | Action | Reason |
|
||||
|-----------|--------|--------|
|
||||
| Just wrote a file | DON'T read | Content still in context |
|
||||
| Viewed image/PDF | Write findings NOW | Multimodal → text before lost |
|
||||
| Browser returned data | Write to file | Screenshots don't persist |
|
||||
| Starting new phase | Read plan/findings | Re-orient if context stale |
|
||||
| Error occurred | Read relevant file | Need current state to fix |
|
||||
| Resuming after gap | Read all planning files | Recover state |
|
||||
|
||||
## The 5-Question Reboot Test
|
||||
|
||||
If you can answer these, your context management is solid:
|
||||
|
||||
| Question | Answer Source |
|
||||
|----------|---------------|
|
||||
| Where am I? | Current phase in task_plan.md |
|
||||
| Where am I going? | Remaining phases |
|
||||
| What's the goal? | Goal statement in plan |
|
||||
| What have I learned? | findings.md |
|
||||
| What have I done? | progress.md |
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use This Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
**Use for:**
|
||||
- Multi-step tasks (3+ steps)
|
||||
- Research tasks
|
||||
- Building/creating projects
|
||||
- Tasks spanning many tool calls
|
||||
- Anything requiring organization
|
||||
|
||||
**Skip for:**
|
||||
- Simple questions
|
||||
- Single-file edits
|
||||
- Quick lookups
|
||||
|
||||
## Templates
|
||||
|
||||
Copy these templates to start:
|
||||
|
||||
- [templates/task_plan.md](templates/task_plan.md) — Phase tracking
|
||||
- [templates/findings.md](templates/findings.md) — Research storage
|
||||
- [templates/progress.md](templates/progress.md) — Session logging
|
||||
|
||||
## Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
Helper scripts for automation:
|
||||
|
||||
- `scripts/init-session.sh` — Initialize all planning files
|
||||
- `scripts/check-complete.sh` — Verify all phases complete
|
||||
- `scripts/session-catchup.py` — Recover context from previous session (v2.2.0)
|
||||
|
||||
## Advanced Topics
|
||||
|
||||
- **Manus Principles:** See [reference.md](reference.md)
|
||||
- **Real Examples:** See [examples.md](examples.md)
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
| Don't | Do Instead |
|
||||
|-------|------------|
|
||||
| Use TodoWrite for persistence | Create task_plan.md file |
|
||||
| State goals once and forget | Re-read plan before decisions |
|
||||
| Hide errors and retry silently | Log errors to plan file |
|
||||
| Stuff everything in context | Store large content in files |
|
||||
| Start executing immediately | Create plan file FIRST |
|
||||
| Repeat failed actions | Track attempts, mutate approach |
|
||||
| Create files in skill directory | Create files in your project |

||||
|
||||
## Example 1: Research Task
|
||||
|
||||
**User Request:** "Research the benefits of morning exercise and write a summary"
|
||||
|
||||
### Loop 1: Create Plan
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Write task_plan.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Task Plan: Morning Exercise Benefits Research
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
Create a research summary on the benefits of morning exercise.
|
||||
|
||||
## Phases
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 1: Create this plan ✓
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 2: Search and gather sources
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 3: Synthesize findings
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 4: Deliver summary
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Questions
|
||||
1. What are the physical health benefits?
|
||||
2. What are the mental health benefits?
|
||||
3. What scientific studies support this?
|
||||
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
**Currently in Phase 1** - Creating plan
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Loop 2: Research
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Read task_plan.md # Refresh goals
|
||||
WebSearch "morning exercise benefits"
|
||||
Write notes.md # Store findings
|
||||
Edit task_plan.md # Mark Phase 2 complete
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Loop 3: Synthesize
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Read task_plan.md # Refresh goals
|
||||
Read notes.md # Get findings
|
||||
Write morning_exercise_summary.md
|
||||
Edit task_plan.md # Mark Phase 3 complete
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Loop 4: Deliver
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
Read task_plan.md # Verify complete

|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Example 2: Bug Fix Task
|
||||
|
||||
**User Request:** "Fix the login bug in the authentication module"
|
||||
|
||||
### task_plan.md
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Task Plan: Fix Login Bug
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
Identify and fix the bug preventing successful login.
|
||||
|
||||
## Phases
|
||||
- [x] Phase 1: Understand the bug report ✓
|
||||
- [x] Phase 2: Locate relevant code ✓
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 3: Identify root cause (CURRENT)
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 4: Implement fix
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 5: Test and verify
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Questions
|
||||
1. What error message appears?
|
||||
2. Which file handles authentication?
|
||||
3. What changed recently?
|
||||
|
||||
## Decisions Made
|
||||
- Auth handler is in src/auth/login.ts
|
||||
- Error occurs in validateToken() function
|
||||
|
||||
## Errors Encountered
|
||||
- [Initial] TypeError: Cannot read property 'token' of undefined
|
||||
→ Root cause: user object not awaited properly
|
||||
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
**Currently in Phase 3** - Found root cause, preparing fix
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Example 3: Feature Development
|
||||
|
||||
**User Request:** "Add a dark mode toggle to the settings page"
|
||||
|
||||
### The 3-File Pattern in Action
|
||||
|
||||
**task_plan.md:**
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Task Plan: Dark Mode Toggle
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
Add functional dark mode toggle to settings.
|
||||
|
||||
## Phases
|
||||
- [x] Phase 1: Research existing theme system ✓
|
||||
- [x] Phase 2: Design implementation approach ✓
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 3: Implement toggle component (CURRENT)
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 4: Add theme switching logic
|
||||
- [ ] Phase 5: Test and polish
|
||||
|
||||
## Decisions Made
|
||||
- Using CSS custom properties for theme
|
||||
- Storing preference in localStorage
|
||||
- Toggle component in SettingsPage.tsx
|
||||
|
||||
## Status
|
||||
**Currently in Phase 3** - Building toggle component
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**notes.md:**
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Notes: Dark Mode Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
## Existing Theme System
|
||||
- Located in: src/styles/theme.ts
|
||||
- Uses: CSS custom properties
|
||||
- Current themes: light only
|
||||
|
||||
## Files to Modify
|
||||
1. src/styles/theme.ts - Add dark theme colors
|
||||
2. src/components/SettingsPage.tsx - Add toggle
|
||||
3. src/hooks/useTheme.ts - Create new hook
|
||||
4. src/App.tsx - Wrap with ThemeProvider
|
||||
|
||||
## Color Decisions
|
||||
- Dark background: #1a1a2e
|
||||
- Dark surface: #16213e
|
||||
- Dark text: #eaeaea
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**dark_mode_implementation.md:** (deliverable)
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
# Dark Mode Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
## Changes Made
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Added dark theme colors
|
||||
File: src/styles/theme.ts
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Created useTheme hook
|
||||
File: src/hooks/useTheme.ts
|
||||
...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Example 4: Error Recovery Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
When something fails, DON'T hide it:
|
||||
|
||||
### Before (Wrong)
|
||||
```
|
||||
Action: Read config.json
|
||||
Error: File not found
|
||||
Action: Read config.json # Silent retry
|
||||
Action: Read config.json # Another retry
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### After (Correct)
|
||||
```
|
||||
Action: Read config.json
|
||||
Error: File not found
|
||||
|
||||
# Update task_plan.md:
|
||||
## Errors Encountered
|
||||
- config.json not found → Will create default config
|
||||
|
||||
Action: Write config.json (default config)
|
||||
Action: Read config.json
|
||||
Success!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Read-Before-Decide Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
**Always read your plan before major decisions:**
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[Many tool calls have happened...]
|
||||
[Context is getting long...]
|
||||
[Original goal might be forgotten...]
|
||||
|
||||
→ Read task_plan.md # This brings goals back into attention!
|
||||
→ Now make the decision # Goals are fresh in context
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This is why Manus can handle ~50 tool calls without losing track. The plan file acts as a "goal refresh" mechanism.

# Reference: Manus Context Engineering Principles
|
||||
|
||||
This skill is based on context engineering principles from Manus, the AI agent company acquired by Meta for $2 billion in December 2025.
|
||||
|
||||
## The 6 Manus Principles
|
||||
|
||||
### Principle 1: Design Around KV-Cache
|
||||
|
||||
> "KV-cache hit rate is THE single most important metric for production AI agents."
|
||||
|
||||
**Statistics:**
|
||||
- ~100:1 input-to-output token ratio
|
||||
- Cached tokens: $0.30/MTok vs Uncached: $3/MTok
|
||||
- 10x cost difference!
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation:**
|
||||
- Keep prompt prefixes STABLE (single-token change invalidates cache)
|
||||
- NO timestamps in system prompts
|
||||
- Make context APPEND-ONLY with deterministic serialization
|
||||
|
||||
### Principle 2: Mask, Don't Remove
|
||||
|
||||
Don't dynamically remove tools (breaks KV-cache). Use logit masking instead.
|
||||
|
||||
**Best Practice:** Use consistent action prefixes (e.g., `browser_`, `shell_`, `file_`) for easier masking.
|
||||
|
||||
### Principle 3: Filesystem as External Memory
|
||||
|
||||
> "Markdown is my 'working memory' on disk."
|
||||
|
||||
**The Formula:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Context Window = RAM (volatile, limited)
|
||||
Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Compression Must Be Restorable:**
|
||||
- Keep URLs even if web content is dropped
|
||||
- Keep file paths when dropping document contents
|
||||
- Never lose the pointer to full data
|
||||
|
||||
### Principle 4: Manipulate Attention Through Recitation
|
||||
|
||||
> "Creates and updates todo.md throughout tasks to push global plan into model's recent attention span."
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** After ~50 tool calls, models forget original goals ("lost in the middle" effect).
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Re-read `task_plan.md` before each decision. Goals appear in the attention window.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Start of context: [Original goal - far away, forgotten]
|
||||
...many tool calls...
|
||||
End of context: [Recently read task_plan.md - gets ATTENTION!]
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Principle 5: Keep the Wrong Stuff In
|
||||
|
||||
> "Leave the wrong turns in the context."
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:**
|
||||
- Failed actions with stack traces let model implicitly update beliefs
|
||||
- Reduces mistake repetition
|
||||
- Error recovery is "one of the clearest signals of TRUE agentic behavior"
|
||||
|
||||
### Principle 6: Don't Get Few-Shotted
|
||||
|
||||
> "Uniformity breeds fragility."
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** Repetitive action-observation pairs cause drift and hallucination.
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Introduce controlled variation:
|
||||
- Vary phrasings slightly
|
||||
- Don't copy-paste patterns blindly
|
||||
- Recalibrate on repetitive tasks
|
||||

|
||||
## The 3 Context Engineering Strategies
|
||||
|
||||
Based on Lance Martin's analysis of Manus architecture.
|
||||
|
||||
### Strategy 1: Context Reduction
|
||||
|
||||
**Compaction:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Tool calls have TWO representations:
|
||||
├── FULL: Raw tool content (stored in filesystem)
|
||||
└── COMPACT: Reference/file path only
|
||||
|
||||
RULES:
|
||||
- Apply compaction to STALE (older) tool results
|
||||
- Keep RECENT results FULL (to guide next decision)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Summarization:**
|
||||
- Applied when compaction reaches diminishing returns
|
||||
- Generated using full tool results
|
||||
- Creates standardized summary objects

### Strategy 2: Context Isolation (Multi-Agent)
|
||||
|
||||
**Architecture:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
┌─────────────────────────────────┐
|
||||
│ PLANNER AGENT │
|
||||
│ └─ Assigns tasks to sub-agents │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ KNOWLEDGE MANAGER │
|
||||
│ └─ Reviews conversations │
|
||||
│ └─ Determines filesystem store │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ EXECUTOR SUB-AGENTS │
|
||||
│ └─ Perform assigned tasks │
|
||||
│ └─ Have own context windows │
|
||||
└─────────────────────────────────┘
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Insight:** Manus originally used `todo.md` for task planning but found ~33% of actions were spent updating it. Shifted to dedicated planner agent calling executor sub-agents.
|
||||
|
||||
### Strategy 3: Context Offloading
|
||||
|
||||
**Tool Design:**
|
||||
- Use <20 atomic functions total
|
||||
- Store full results in filesystem, not context
|
||||
- Use `glob` and `grep` for searching
|
||||
- Progressive disclosure: load information only as needed
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## The Agent Loop
|
||||
|
||||
Manus operates in a continuous 7-step loop:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
|
||||
│ 1. ANALYZE CONTEXT │
|
||||
│ - Understand user intent │
|
||||
│ - Assess current state │
|
||||
│ - Review recent observations │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ 2. THINK │
|
||||
│ - Should I update the plan? │
|
||||
│ - What's the next logical action? │
|
||||
│ - Are there blockers? │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ 3. SELECT TOOL │
|
||||
│ - Choose ONE tool │
|
||||
│ - Ensure parameters available │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ 4. EXECUTE ACTION │
|
||||
│ - Tool runs in sandbox │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ 5. RECEIVE OBSERVATION │
|
||||
│ - Result appended to context │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ 6. ITERATE │
|
||||
│ - Return to step 1 │
|
||||
│ - Continue until complete │
|
||||
├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
|
||||
│ 7. DELIVER OUTCOME │
|
||||
│ - Send results to user │
|
||||
│ - Attach all relevant files │
|
||||
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
|
||||
```

||||

## File Types Manus Creates
|
||||
|
||||
| File | Purpose | When Created | When Updated |
|
||||
|------|---------|--------------|--------------|
|
||||
| `task_plan.md` | Phase tracking, progress | Task start | After completing phases |
|
||||
| `findings.md` | Discoveries, decisions | After ANY discovery | After viewing images/PDFs |
|
||||
| `progress.md` | Session log, what's done | At breakpoints | Throughout session |
|
||||
| Code files | Implementation | Before execution | After errors |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Critical Constraints
|
||||
|
||||
- **Single-Action Execution:** ONE tool call per turn. No parallel execution.
|
||||
- **Plan is Required:** Agent must ALWAYS know: goal, current phase, remaining phases
|
||||
- **Files are Memory:** Context = volatile. Filesystem = persistent.
|
||||
- **Never Repeat Failures:** If action failed, next action MUST be different
|
||||
- **Communication is a Tool:** Message types: `info` (progress), `ask` (blocking), `result` (terminal)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Manus Statistics
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Value |
|
||||
|--------|-------|
|
||||
| Average tool calls per task | ~50 |
|
||||
| Input-to-output token ratio | 100:1 |
|
||||
| Acquisition price | $2 billion |
|
||||
| Time to $100M revenue | 8 months |
|
||||
| Framework refactors since launch | 5 times |
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Key Quotes
|
||||
|
||||
> "Context window = RAM (volatile, limited). Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited). Anything important gets written to disk."
|
||||
|
||||
> "if action_failed: next_action != same_action. Track what you tried. Mutate the approach."
|
||||
|
||||
> "Error recovery is one of the clearest signals of TRUE agentic behavior."
|
||||
|
||||
> "KV-cache hit rate is the single most important metric for a production-stage AI agent."
|
||||
|
||||
> "Leave the wrong turns in the context."

# Findings & Decisions
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: Your knowledge base for the task. Stores everything you discover and decide.
|
||||
WHY: Context windows are limited. This file is your "external memory" - persistent and unlimited.
|
||||
WHEN: Update after ANY discovery, especially after 2 view/browser/search operations (2-Action Rule).
|
||||
-->
|
||||
|
||||
## Requirements
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: What the user asked for, broken down into specific requirements.
|
||||
WHY: Keeps requirements visible so you don't forget what you're building.
|
||||
WHEN: Fill this in during Phase 1 (Requirements & Discovery).
|
||||
EXAMPLE:
|
||||
- Command-line interface
|
||||
- Add tasks
|
||||
- List all tasks
|
||||
- Delete tasks
|
||||
- Python implementation
|
||||
-->
|
||||
<!-- Captured from user request -->
|
||||
-
|
||||
|
||||
## Research Findings
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: Key discoveries from web searches, documentation reading, or exploration.
|
||||
WHY: Multimodal content (images, browser results) doesn't persist. Write it down immediately.
|
||||
WHEN: After EVERY 2 view/browser/search operations, update this section (2-Action Rule).
|
||||
EXAMPLE:
|
||||
- Python's argparse module supports subcommands for clean CLI design
|
||||
- JSON module handles file persistence easily
|
||||
- Standard pattern: python script.py <command> [args]
|
||||
-->
|
||||
<!-- Key discoveries during exploration -->
|
||||
-
|
||||
|
||||
## Technical Decisions
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: Architecture and implementation choices you've made, with reasoning.
|
||||
WHY: You'll forget why you chose a technology or approach. This table preserves that knowledge.
|
||||
WHEN: Update whenever you make a significant technical choice.
|
||||
EXAMPLE:
|
||||
| Use JSON for storage | Simple, human-readable, built-in Python support |
|
||||
| argparse with subcommands | Clean CLI: python todo.py add "task" |
|
||||
-->

<!-- Decisions made with rationale -->

|
||||
## Issues Encountered
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: Problems you ran into and how you solved them.
|
||||
WHY: Similar to errors in task_plan.md, but focused on broader issues (not just code errors).
|
||||
WHEN: Document when you encounter blockers or unexpected challenges.
|
||||
EXAMPLE:
|
||||
| Empty file causes JSONDecodeError | Added explicit empty file check before json.load() |
|
||||
-->

|

## Resources
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: URLs, file paths, API references, documentation links you've found useful.
|
||||
WHY: Easy reference for later. Don't lose important links in context.
|
||||
WHEN: Add as you discover useful resources.
|
||||
EXAMPLE:
|
||||
- Python argparse docs: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html
|
||||
- Project structure: src/main.py, src/utils.py
|
||||
-->
|
||||
<!-- URLs, file paths, API references -->
|
||||
-
|
||||
|
||||
## Visual/Browser Findings
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
WHAT: Information you learned from viewing images, PDFs, or browser results.
|
||||
WHY: CRITICAL - Visual/multimodal content doesn't persist in context. Must be captured as text.
|
||||
WHEN: IMMEDIATELY after viewing images or browser results. Don't wait!
|
||||
EXAMPLE:
|
||||
- Screenshot shows login form has email and password fields
|
||||
- Browser shows API returns JSON with "status" and "data" keys
|
||||
-->
|
||||
<!-- CRITICAL: Update after every 2 view/browser operations -->

||||
<!-- Multimodal content must be captured as text immediately -->
|

|

<!--
|

REMINDER: The 2-Action Rule
|

After every 2 view/browser/search operations, you MUST update this file.
