AI Agent Skill Stele: Efficient Project & Task Management

AI Agent Skill Stele: Efficient Project & Task Management

The "AI Agent Skill Stele" is designed to support project and task management for users of AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. It maintains a durable state of projects and tasks using markdown files within a repository. This ensures that progress and context are preserved even if a session is interrupted.

What this skill does

• Stores project and task states in plain markdown files, ensuring persistence of project context and task details.
• Creates a PROJECT_CONTEXT.md file to document current states, decisions, invariants, and deferred defects.
• Generates a TASKS.md file which features a census of tasks, intended to be read-only by users.
• Maintains individual task files within a tasks/ directory, each capturing detailed goals, current state, failed attempts, and progress steps.
• Writes records before executing steps, thereby preserving work even in case of session crashes or rate limit issues.
• Activates upon user command to manage, resume, or continue project tasks when specified by a project instruction file or a direct user request.

Who it is for

This skill is aimed at developers and project teams leveraging AI coding agents, particularly those using Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex. It is beneficial for individuals and teams requiring consistent task documentation and management across project cycles.

Use cases

• Facilitates task continuity in environments with frequent interruptions due to rate limits or unexpected session terminations.
• Supports structured documentation and review processes during software development, facilitating collaboration across distributed teams.
• Enables clear state management for long-term projects needing reliable state preservation without manual intervention.

Technical details

• Utilises markdown for all project and task state documentation.
• Operates based on user commands or specified project instruction files pointing to a stele/ directory.
• Designed to work seamlessly with AI agent frameworks like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
