For every complex task, create THREE files:

task_plan.md → Track phases and progress notes.md → Store research and findings [deliverable].md → Final output

The Loop

  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

Key insight: By reading task_plan.md before each decision, goals stay in the attention window. This is how Manus handles ~50 tool calls without losing track.
