왜 쓰나요

핵심 기능

Automatic creation of task_plan.md, findings.md, progress.md at start of complex work
PreToolUse hook nudges Claude to re-read the plan before major decisions
Persistent failure log so the agent stops repeating the same mistakes
Recovers prior session state when context fills up or resumes
Won 3/3 blind A/B comparisons vs an unskilled baseline

Cursor는 Claude Desktop과 동일한 mcpServers 스키마 사용. 프로젝트 설정이 전역보다 우선.

사용 사례

실전 활용법: planning-with-files

Run a multi-day refactor without losing the thread

👤 Engineers doing migrations or large refactors with Claude Code ⏱ ~30 min intermediate

언제 쓸까: You're breaking apart a monolith, migrating a framework, or doing anything that takes more than one session.

사전 조건

Skill cloned to ~/.claude/skills/planning-with-files — git clone https://github.com/OthmanAdi/planning-with-files ~/.claude/skills/planning-with-files

흐름

Kick off the work with the skill explicitly

We're migrating the auth module from JWT to session cookies. Use the planning-with-files skill to map this out before you start.✓ 복사됨

→ Claude writes task_plan.md with phases before touching code
Let Claude run; pause and resume across days

Pick up where we left off — read progress.md and continue.✓ 복사됨

→ Claude re-reads the plan and knows exactly which phase is next
Review findings.md for surprises

Summarize findings.md — anything that changed the original plan?✓ 복사됨

→ List of discoveries that would otherwise be lost

결과: A refactor that survives context resets with an audit trail you can actually review.

함정

Skill invoked for trivial one-line edits, adding overhead — Tell Claude 'skip planning-with-files, this is a one-shot fix'

함께 쓰기: filesystem · git

Conduct a research investigation with a durable findings doc

👤 Anyone using Claude for multi-source research ⏱ ~45 min beginner

언제 쓸까: You'll be asking Claude to gather information from many sources and synthesize.

흐름

Start with a research question

Research how modern rate-limiters handle burst traffic. Use planning-with-files — I want findings.md to build up over the session.✓ 복사됨

→ Claude writes findings.md incrementally as it searches
Ask for a synthesis at the end

Now synthesize findings.md into a 1-page brief.✓ 복사됨

→ Brief grounded in the durable notes, not hallucinated

결과: A findings doc you can re-use and a brief backed by it.

함정

findings.md balloons with noise — Instruct Claude to trim to signal-only at phase boundaries

조합

다른 MCP와 조합해 10배 효율

planning-with-files-skill + filesystem

Skill writes the markdown files; filesystem MCP lets Claude also edit code in the same session

Use planning-with-files to plan, then apply the fixes to the repo via filesystem.✓ 복사됨

planning-with-files-skill + git

Commit progress.md and findings.md at phase boundaries so you have a durable trail across machines

End of phase — commit the 3 planning files with a message summarizing what's done.✓ 복사됨

도구

이 MCP가 노출하는 것

도구	입력	언제 호출	비용
create_plan	task description	Beginning of any task with 3+ steps	0 — local file write
log_finding	discovery text	Each time research turns up something worth remembering	0
update_progress	step completed	After each significant tool call or phase	0
resume_session	none	Start of any follow-up session in same working directory	0

비용 및 제한

운영 비용

API 쿼터: None
호출당 토큰: Modest — the 3 files consume tokens on re-reads, usually under 2k each
금액: Free — skill is pure prompts and hook scripts
팁: Let Claude trim progress.md periodically so it doesn't grow unbounded across long projects.

보안

권한, 시크릿, 파급범위

자격 증명 저장: No credentials — skill is pure prompts and local file operations

데이터 외부 송신: None — all state stays on your disk in the working directory

The 3 files are written to your working directory — add them to .gitignore if you don't want them committed.

문제 해결

자주 발생하는 오류와 해결

Claude ignores the skill and doesn't create task_plan.md

Reference it by name in your prompt: 'use the planning-with-files skill'. Confirm the clone landed in ~/.claude/skills/planning-with-files.

확인: ls ~/.claude/skills/planning-with-files/SKILL.md

Hooks not firing between tool calls

Check SKILL.md's frontmatter is intact; reinstall if the clone was partial.

확인: head ~/.claude/skills/planning-with-files/SKILL.md

The 3 files get committed to git accidentally

Add task_plan.md, findings.md, progress.md to .gitignore.

확인: git check-ignore task_plan.md

대안

대안	언제 쓰나	단점/장점
skillforge	You want a skill to create other skills, not just planning	Different goal — skillforge builds skills; planning-with-files runs tasks
Native TodoWrite tool	Lightweight in-context todos are enough and you don't need cross-session persistence	Free but evaporates when context resets
