Detects stale project plans and suggests session commands. An agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace.

What it does

Project Planner is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Detects stale project plans and suggests session commands. Triggers on: sync plan, update plan, check status, plan is stale, track progress, project planning.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts, reference files and assets (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Project management. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Project planning
  • Tasks that involve Project management

Example prompts

  • “Use the project-planner skill to detect stale project plans and suggests session commands. An agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace”
  • “/project-planner”

Requirements

  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Glob, TaskList, TaskCreate

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4ac52da. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Glob
    • TaskList
    • TaskCreate

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Project Planner loads about 504 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 163 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~504

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Project Planner Skill

Lightweight awareness layer for docs/PLAN.md. Detects when plans need attention and points to /save and /sync commands.

Purpose

This skill does NOT manage plans directly. It:

  • Detects when docs/PLAN.md exists or is missing
  • Identifies stale plans (no recent updates vs git activity)
  • Suggests appropriate session commands

All plan operations go through /save (persist) and /sync (restore/status).

Detection Logic

Plan Missing
No docs/PLAN.md found
-> Suggest: /save to create initial plan from conversation
Plan Stale
docs/PLAN.md last modified: 5 days ago
git log shows: 12 commits since then
-> Suggest: /sync --git to update from commits
Uncommitted Work
git status shows: 5 modified files
docs/PLAN.md "In Progress" section outdated
-> Suggest: /sync --status to review
Session Start
Resuming work on project with docs/PLAN.md
-> Suggest: /sync to restore state

Quick Reference

SituationSuggestion
No plan exists/save after discussing goals
Plan is stale/sync --git
Need to see plan/sync --status
Update progress/save "notes"
Start fresh/save --archive

Staleness Heuristics

A plan is considered stale when:

  • Last modified > 3 days ago AND
  • Git shows commits since last modification AND
  • Commits relate to plan topics (feat:, fix:, refactor:)

A plan needs review when:

  • Session just started
  • Significant uncommitted changes exist
  • User mentions progress or completion

Notes

  • This skill only suggests, never modifies
  • /sync reads state, /save writes state
  • Single source of truth: docs/PLAN.md
