Manage plans, TODO/PROJ items, deadlines, notes, and summaries in the central project Org file resolved by `(+org-project-current-file)` or `(+org-project-file-dwim)`. Use only when the user explicitly invokes `$project-plan`; never trigger implicitly from planning language, the presence of a plan or project Org file, or a request to create, review, or update a plan. If invoked without any follow-up prompt, switch to plan mode, list the current active plans, and ask the user which one to execute or review.

Manage plans, TODO/PROJ items, deadlines, notes, and summaries in the central project Org file resolved by `(+org-project-current-file)` or `(+org-project-file-dwim)`. Use only when the user explicitly invokes `$project-plan`; never trigger implicitly from planning language, the presence of a plan or project Org file, or a request to create, review, or update a plan. If invoked without any follow-up prompt, switch to plan mode, list the current active plans, and ask the user which one to execute or review.
Project Plan
Treat the project's helper-resolved central Org file as the source of truth for project plans, deadlines, notes, and summaries.
Working Rules
Run this workflow only after the user explicitly invokes $project-plan. Do not infer invocation from planning language or project context.
Resolve the active project root first. Prefer the live Emacs project context over guessing from filesystem paths.
Resolve the central project Org file through (+org-project-current-file) or (+org-project-file-dwim). Require at least one of these helpers: try (+org-project-current-file) first when it exists, then use (+org-project-file-dwim) when needed and available. Do not guess a file from the filesystem.
If neither resolver helper exists, stop before reading or writing a plan and ask whether the user permits creating project.org in the active project root. Create it only after explicit approval; if the user declines, leave the project unchanged.
When the resolved or user-approved file is project.org, detect whether the project root uses version control. If it does, add the project-relative file to the backend's standard ignore file before creating or writing it. Preserve existing ignore rules, avoid duplicate entries, and verify that the backend reports the file as ignored.
If project.org is already tracked, an ignore rule is insufficient. Stop tracking it with the backend-specific operation that preserves the working copy (for Git, git rm --cached -- project.org), never delete the local Org file, and verify the resulting state.
Read before writing. For planning or review work, inspect the active task headings plus * Note and any active project subtree. For note-only requests, read * Note first and ignore task sections unless they are directly relevant.
Treat an explicit $project-plan invocation with no follow-up prompt as a request to enter plan mode. Enumerate the active PROJ, TODO, WAIT, and imminent deadline items from the project Org file, then ask the user which item to execute, continue, or review.
Treat an explicit $project-plan invocation with follow-up text as an update request. Classify the content before editing: actionable work belongs in plan/task headings, while non-actionable facts, notes, and summaries belong under * Note.
Write agreed plans into the project Org file instead of leaving them only in chat. When the user asks to make or refine a plan, convert the outcome into Org entries that match the existing file structure.
Represent multi-step efforts as PROJ entries with child TODO or WAIT items when that matches the existing file. Add DEADLINE: when a due date is known.
Update the corresponding Org entries after technical discussion changes the plan. Adjust task state, wording, order, deadlines, or notes so the file stays current after review.
Mark completed work as DONE when execution finishes. Do not leave finished plan items open unless the user explicitly wants to defer that update.
Keep remembered facts, design notes, meeting notes, and summaries under * Note unless they are actionable tasks. Do not silently convert note content into TODO items.
Preserve human-authored task wording when possible. Apply the authorship-tag invariant below to every actionable heading created or substantially rewritten by the agent.
Do not silently delete human-captured tasks. Close, rewrite, or archive them only when the conversation or the existing Org workflow supports that change.
Authorship-Tag Invariant
Add the Org tag :agent: when creating a PROJ, TODO, or WAIT heading whose wording or decomposition the agent generated, even when it implements a user-requested plan.
Add :agent: during the initial write and preserve every existing tag. Do not wait for the user to identify a missing tag.
For a generated PROJ subtree, place :agent: on the parent and rely on inheritance only after verifying org-use-tag-inheritance is enabled. Otherwise add :agent: to each generated actionable child.
Treat verbatim user-captured task wording as human-authored and follow the file's existing human-authorship convention instead of adding :agent: automatically.
Before reporting a plan update complete, re-read the affected subtree and verify that every generated actionable heading has an explicit or effective inherited :agent: tag.
Required File Resolvers and Preferred Helpers
Depend on at least one of these Emacs helpers to resolve the central project Org file:
(+org-project-current-file) to locate the current project's central file
(+org-project-file-dwim) to detect or choose a project file
Check whether each resolver exists before calling it. If neither exists, ask for explicit permission to create project.org as described above instead of silently falling back to it.
After resolving the file, prefer these helpers over hand-editing headings when they are available:
(+org-project-append-log FILE TEXT) to append project log entries
(+org-project-archive-done-task) when the user explicitly asks to archive completed work
(vc-responsible-backend PROJECT-ROOT) to detect whether a VC backend manages the project
vc-ignore with default-directory bound to PROJECT-ROOT, passing the project-relative file, to add the central file to that backend's ignore rules
When no dedicated helper exists for plan maintenance, edit the relevant subtree directly and keep the surrounding structure intact.
Content Conventions
Treat the helper-resolved project Org file as the system of record for plans, deadlines, notes, and summaries
Use project.org as a no-resolver fallback only after the user explicitly authorizes creating it
Prefer updating the existing heading layout over inventing a new schema
Use PROJ for multi-step efforts and child TODO or WAIT items for concrete next actions
Use DEADLINE: for due dates
Use * Note for non-actionable notes and end-of-task summaries
Use * Log for agent-generated status updates only when that section already exists or the workflow clearly expects it
Use :agent: for agent-generated actionable headings, following the authorship-tag invariant
Keep human-captured tasks tagged as human-authored when the file already uses those tags or properties
Core Workflow
Resolve the central file with (+org-project-current-file) or (+org-project-file-dwim). If neither helper exists, ask whether the user permits creating project.org and stop until permission is explicit.
When the resolved or approved file is project.org in a version-controlled project, ensure it is ignored and untracked without removing the working copy.
If the skill is invoked without follow-up text, enter plan mode, summarize the active plans, and ask the user to choose one path before making changes.
If the skill is invoked with follow-up text, classify the request as plan/task work or note/summary work and update the correct section of the project Org file.
Write or revise the plan in the project Org file after the user and agent agree on the work, adding :agent: to generated actionable headings as they are created.
Reflect technical review outcomes back into the matching Org entries instead of keeping updated intent only in chat.
Mark completed items as DONE when the implementation or investigation finishes.
Re-read the affected subtree and verify effective authorship tags before reporting the update complete.
Append a short summary or note under * Note when the result is worth remembering but is not itself a task.
Good Patterns
Call $project-plan alone, list the current active plans from the project org file, and let the user choose which one to execute next
Turn a chat-level implementation plan into a PROJ ... :agent: subtree with concrete child tasks in the project file before or while starting the work
Update an existing PROJ subtree after scope, sequencing, or deadlines change during discussion
Mark the finished TODO or PROJ entry as DONE after the work lands
Add a short post-work summary under * Note when the user wants a durable record of the outcome
Ask before creating project.org when neither required resolver helper exists
Keep Archive folded and out of the active working set unless the task is explicitly about cleanup or review
