fix(mastra): add hooks.json, fix SKILL.md path var, correct docs

Mastra Code reads hooks from .mastracode/hooks.json, not SKILL.md
frontmatter. All three hooks (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop) were
silently non-functional. Added hooks.json with proper Mastra format
including matchers and timeouts. Fixed MASTRACODE_SKILL_ROOT env var
(does not exist in Mastra Code). Corrected docs/mastra.md to accurately
describe the hooks.json system and fixed personal install instructions
to include the hooks file.

+# Findings & Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Your knowledge base for the task. Stores everything you discover and decide.
+  WHY: Context windows are limited. This file is your "external memory" - persistent and unlimited.
+  WHEN: Update after ANY discovery, especially after 2 view/browser/search operations (2-Action Rule).
+-->
+
+## Requirements
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: What the user asked for, broken down into specific requirements.
+  WHY: Keeps requirements visible so you don't forget what you're building.
+  WHEN: Fill this in during Phase 1 (Requirements & Discovery).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Command-line interface
+    - Add tasks
+    - List all tasks
+    - Delete tasks
+    - Python implementation
+-->
+<!-- Captured from user request -->
+-
+
+## Research Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Key discoveries from web searches, documentation reading, or exploration.
+  WHY: Multimodal content (images, browser results) doesn't persist. Write it down immediately.
+  WHEN: After EVERY 2 view/browser/search operations, update this section (2-Action Rule).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python's argparse module supports subcommands for clean CLI design
+    - JSON module handles file persistence easily
+    - Standard pattern: python script.py <command> [args]
+-->
+<!-- Key discoveries during exploration -->
+-
+
+## Technical Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Architecture and implementation choices you've made, with reasoning.
+  WHY: You'll forget why you chose a technology or approach. This table preserves that knowledge.
+  WHEN: Update whenever you make a significant technical choice.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Use JSON for storage | Simple, human-readable, built-in Python support |
+    | argparse with subcommands | Clean CLI: python todo.py add "task" |
+-->
+<!-- Decisions made with rationale -->
+| Decision | Rationale |
+|----------|-----------|
+|          |           |
+
+## Issues Encountered
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Problems you ran into and how you solved them.
+  WHY: Similar to errors in task_plan.md, but focused on broader issues (not just code errors).
+  WHEN: Document when you encounter blockers or unexpected challenges.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Empty file causes JSONDecodeError | Added explicit empty file check before json.load() |
+-->
+<!-- Errors and how they were resolved -->
+| Issue | Resolution |
+|-------|------------|
+|       |            |
+
+## Resources
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: URLs, file paths, API references, documentation links you've found useful.
+  WHY: Easy reference for later. Don't lose important links in context.
+  WHEN: Add as you discover useful resources.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python argparse docs: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html
+    - Project structure: src/main.py, src/utils.py
+-->
+<!-- URLs, file paths, API references -->
+-
+
+## Visual/Browser Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Information you learned from viewing images, PDFs, or browser results.
+  WHY: CRITICAL - Visual/multimodal content doesn't persist in context. Must be captured as text.
+  WHEN: IMMEDIATELY after viewing images or browser results. Don't wait!
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Screenshot shows login form has email and password fields
+    - Browser shows API returns JSON with "status" and "data" keys

+# Planning with Files
+
+Work like Manus: Use persistent markdown files as your "working memory on disk."
+
+## FIRST: Check for Previous Session (v2.2.0)
+
+**Before starting work**, check for unsynced context from a previous session:
+
+```bash
+# Linux/macOS
+$(command -v python3 || command -v python) ~/.mastracode/skills/planning-with-files/scripts/session-catchup.py "$(pwd)"
+```
+
+```powershell
+# Windows PowerShell
+& (Get-Command python -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).Source "$env:USERPROFILE\.mastracode\skills\planning-with-files\scripts\session-catchup.py" (Get-Location)
+```
+
+If catchup report shows unsynced context:
+1. Run `git diff --stat` to see actual code changes
+2. Read current planning files
+3. Update planning files based on catchup + git diff
+4. Then proceed with task
+
+## Important: Where Files Go
+
+- **Templates** are in this skill's `templates/` folder
+- **Your planning files** go in **your project directory**
+
+| Location | What Goes There |
+|----------|-----------------|
+| Skill directory | Templates, scripts, reference docs |
+| Your project directory | `task_plan.md`, `findings.md`, `progress.md` |
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Before ANY complex task:
+
+1. **Create `task_plan.md`** — Use [templates/task_plan.md](templates/task_plan.md) as reference
+2. **Create `findings.md`** — Use [templates/findings.md](templates/findings.md) as reference
+3. **Create `progress.md`** — Use [templates/progress.md](templates/progress.md) as reference
+4. **Re-read plan before decisions** — Refreshes goals in attention window
+5. **Update after each phase** — Mark complete, log errors
+
+> **Note:** Planning files go in your project root, not the skill installation folder.
+
+## The Core Pattern
+
+```
+Context Window = RAM (volatile, limited)
+Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited)
+
+→ Anything important gets written to disk.
+```
+
+## File Purposes
+
+| File | Purpose | When to Update |
+|------|---------|----------------|
+| `task_plan.md` | Phases, progress, decisions | After each phase |
+| `findings.md` | Research, discoveries | After ANY discovery |
+| `progress.md` | Session log, test results | Throughout session |
+
+## Critical Rules
+
+### 1. Create Plan First
+Never start a complex task without `task_plan.md`. Non-negotiable.
+
+### 2. The 2-Action Rule
+> "After every 2 view/browser/search operations, IMMEDIATELY save key findings to text files."
+
+This prevents visual/multimodal information from being lost.
+
+### 3. Read Before Decide
+Before major decisions, read the plan file. This keeps goals in your attention window.
+
+### 4. Update After Act
+After completing any phase:
+- Mark phase status: `in_progress` → `complete`
+- Log any errors encountered
+- Note files created/modified
+
+### 5. Log ALL Errors
+Every error goes in the plan file. This builds knowledge and prevents repetition.
+
+```markdown
+## Errors Encountered
+| Error | Attempt | Resolution |
+|-------|---------|------------|
+| FileNotFoundError | 1 | Created default config |
+| API timeout | 2 | Added retry logic |
+```
+
+### 6. Never Repeat Failures
+```
+if action_failed:
+    next_action != same_action
+```
+Track what you tried. Mutate the approach.
+
+## The 3-Strike Error Protocol
+
+```
+ATTEMPT 1: Diagnose & Fix
+  → Read error carefully
+  → Identify root cause
+  → Apply targeted fix
+
+ATTEMPT 2: Alternative Approach
+  → Same error? Try different method
+  → Different tool? Different library?
+  → NEVER repeat exact same failing action
+
+ATTEMPT 3: Broader Rethink
+  → Question assumptions
+  → Search for solutions
+  → Consider updating the plan
+
+AFTER 3 FAILURES: Escalate to User
+  → Explain what you tried
+  → Share the specific error
+  → Ask for guidance
+```
+
+## Read vs Write Decision Matrix
+
+| Situation | Action | Reason |
+|-----------|--------|--------|
+| Just wrote a file | DON'T read | Content still in context |
+| Viewed image/PDF | Write findings NOW | Multimodal → text before lost |
+| Browser returned data | Write to file | Screenshots don't persist |
+| Starting new phase | Read plan/findings | Re-orient if context stale |
+| Error occurred | Read relevant file | Need current state to fix |
+| Resuming after gap | Read all planning files | Recover state |
+
+## The 5-Question Reboot Test
+
+If you can answer these, your context management is solid:
+
+| Question | Answer Source |
+|----------|---------------|
+| Where am I? | Current phase in task_plan.md |
+| Where am I going? | Remaining phases |
+| What's the goal? | Goal statement in plan |
+| What have I learned? | findings.md |
+| What have I done? | progress.md |
+
+## When to Use This Pattern
+
+**Use for:**
+- Multi-step tasks (3+ steps)
+- Research tasks
+- Building/creating projects
+- Tasks spanning many tool calls
+- Anything requiring organization
+
+**Skip for:**
+- Simple questions
+- Single-file edits
+- Quick lookups
+
+## Templates
+
+Copy these templates to start:
+
+- [templates/task_plan.md](templates/task_plan.md) — Phase tracking
+- [templates/findings.md](templates/findings.md) — Research storage
+- [templates/progress.md](templates/progress.md) — Session logging
+
+## Scripts
+
+Helper scripts for automation:
+
+- `scripts/init-session.sh` — Initialize all planning files
+- `scripts/check-complete.sh` — Verify all phases complete
+- `scripts/session-catchup.py` — Recover context from previous session (v2.2.0)
+
+## Advanced Topics
+
+- **Manus Principles:** See [references/reference.md](references/reference.md)
+- **Real Examples:** See [references/examples.md](references/examples.md)
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| Don't | Do Instead |
+|-------|------------|
+| Use TodoWrite for persistence | Create task_plan.md file |
+| State goals once and forget | Re-read plan before decisions |
+| Hide errors and retry silently | Log errors to plan file |
+| Stuff everything in context | Store large content in files |
+| Start executing immediately | Create plan file FIRST |
+| Repeat failed actions | Track attempts, mutate approach |
+| Create files in skill directory | Create files in your project |

+# Findings & Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Your knowledge base for the task. Stores everything you discover and decide.
+  WHY: Context windows are limited. This file is your "external memory" - persistent and unlimited.
+  WHEN: Update after ANY discovery, especially after 2 view/browser/search operations (2-Action Rule).
+-->
+
+## Requirements
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: What the user asked for, broken down into specific requirements.
+  WHY: Keeps requirements visible so you don't forget what you're building.
+  WHEN: Fill this in during Phase 1 (Requirements & Discovery).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Command-line interface
+    - Add tasks
+    - List all tasks
+    - Delete tasks
+    - Python implementation
+-->
+<!-- Captured from user request -->
+-
+
+## Research Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Key discoveries from web searches, documentation reading, or exploration.
+  WHY: Multimodal content (images, browser results) doesn't persist. Write it down immediately.
+  WHEN: After EVERY 2 view/browser/search operations, update this section (2-Action Rule).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python's argparse module supports subcommands for clean CLI design
+    - JSON module handles file persistence easily
+    - Standard pattern: python script.py <command> [args]
+-->
+<!-- Key discoveries during exploration -->
+-
+
+## Technical Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Architecture and implementation choices you've made, with reasoning.
+  WHY: You'll forget why you chose a technology or approach. This table preserves that knowledge.
+  WHEN: Update whenever you make a significant technical choice.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Use JSON for storage | Simple, human-readable, built-in Python support |
+    | argparse with subcommands | Clean CLI: python todo.py add "task" |
+-->
+<!-- Decisions made with rationale -->
+| Decision | Rationale |
+|----------|-----------|
+|          |           |
+
+## Issues Encountered
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Problems you ran into and how you solved them.
+  WHY: Similar to errors in task_plan.md, but focused on broader issues (not just code errors).
+  WHEN: Document when you encounter blockers or unexpected challenges.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Empty file causes JSONDecodeError | Added explicit empty file check before json.load() |
+-->
+<!-- Errors and how they were resolved -->
+| Issue | Resolution |
+|-------|------------|
+|       |            |
+
+## Resources
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: URLs, file paths, API references, documentation links you've found useful.
+  WHY: Easy reference for later. Don't lose important links in context.
+  WHEN: Add as you discover useful resources.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python argparse docs: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html
+    - Project structure: src/main.py, src/utils.py
+-->
+<!-- URLs, file paths, API references -->
+-
+
+## Visual/Browser Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Information you learned from viewing images, PDFs, or browser results.
+  WHY: CRITICAL - Visual/multimodal content doesn't persist in context. Must be captured as text.
+  WHEN: IMMEDIATELY after viewing images or browser results. Don't wait!
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Screenshot shows login form has email and password fields
+    - Browser shows API returns JSON with "status" and "data" keys
+-->

+**User Request:** "Add a dark mode toggle to the settings page"
+
+### The 3-File Pattern in Action
+
+**task_plan.md:**
+```markdown
+# Task Plan: Dark Mode Toggle
+
+## Goal
+Add functional dark mode toggle to settings.
+
+## Phases
+- [x] Phase 1: Research existing theme system ✓
+- [x] Phase 2: Design implementation approach ✓
+- [ ] Phase 3: Implement toggle component (CURRENT)
+- [ ] Phase 4: Add theme switching logic
+- [ ] Phase 5: Test and polish
+
+## Decisions Made
+- Using CSS custom properties for theme
+- Storing preference in localStorage
+- Toggle component in SettingsPage.tsx
+
+## Status
+**Currently in Phase 3** - Building toggle component
+```
+
+**notes.md:**
+```markdown
+# Notes: Dark Mode Implementation
+
+## Existing Theme System
+- Located in: src/styles/theme.ts
+- Uses: CSS custom properties
+- Current themes: light only
+
+## Files to Modify
+1. src/styles/theme.ts - Add dark theme colors
+2. src/components/SettingsPage.tsx - Add toggle
+3. src/hooks/useTheme.ts - Create new hook
+4. src/App.tsx - Wrap with ThemeProvider
+
+## Color Decisions
+- Dark background: #1a1a2e
+- Dark surface: #16213e
+- Dark text: #eaeaea
+```
+
+**dark_mode_implementation.md:** (deliverable)
+```markdown
+# Dark Mode Implementation
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. Added dark theme colors
+File: src/styles/theme.ts
+...
+
+### 2. Created useTheme hook
+File: src/hooks/useTheme.ts
+...
+```
+
+---
+
+## Example 4: Error Recovery Pattern
+
+When something fails, DON'T hide it:
+
+### Before (Wrong)
+```
+Action: Read config.json
+Error: File not found
+Action: Read config.json  # Silent retry
+Action: Read config.json  # Another retry
+```
+
+### After (Correct)
+```
+Action: Read config.json
+Error: File not found
+
+# Update task_plan.md:
+## Errors Encountered
+- config.json not found → Will create default config
+
+Action: Write config.json (default config)
+Action: Read config.json
+Success!
+```
+
+---
+
+## The Read-Before-Decide Pattern
+
+**Always read your plan before major decisions:**
+
+```
+[Many tool calls have happened...]
+[Context is getting long...]
+[Original goal might be forgotten...]
+
+→ Read task_plan.md          # This brings goals back into attention!
+→ Now make the decision       # Goals are fresh in context
+```
+
+This is why Manus can handle ~50 tool calls without losing track. The plan file acts as a "goal refresh" mechanism.

+# Reference: Manus Context Engineering Principles
+
+This skill is based on context engineering principles from Manus, the AI agent company acquired by Meta for $2 billion in December 2025.
+
+## The 6 Manus Principles
+
+### Principle 1: Design Around KV-Cache
+
+> "KV-cache hit rate is THE single most important metric for production AI agents."
+
+**Statistics:**
+- ~100:1 input-to-output token ratio
+- Cached tokens: $0.30/MTok vs Uncached: $3/MTok
+- 10x cost difference!
+
+**Implementation:**
+- Keep prompt prefixes STABLE (single-token change invalidates cache)
+- NO timestamps in system prompts
+- Make context APPEND-ONLY with deterministic serialization
+
+### Principle 2: Mask, Don't Remove
+
+Don't dynamically remove tools (breaks KV-cache). Use logit masking instead.
+
+**Best Practice:** Use consistent action prefixes (e.g., `browser_`, `shell_`, `file_`) for easier masking.
+
+### Principle 3: Filesystem as External Memory
+
+> "Markdown is my 'working memory' on disk."
+
+**The Formula:**
+```
+Context Window = RAM (volatile, limited)
+Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited)
+```
+
+**Compression Must Be Restorable:**
+- Keep URLs even if web content is dropped
+- Keep file paths when dropping document contents
+- Never lose the pointer to full data
+
+### Principle 4: Manipulate Attention Through Recitation
+
+> "Creates and updates todo.md throughout tasks to push global plan into model's recent attention span."
+
+**Problem:** After ~50 tool calls, models forget original goals ("lost in the middle" effect).
+
+**Solution:** Re-read `task_plan.md` before each decision. Goals appear in the attention window.
+
+```
+Start of context: [Original goal - far away, forgotten]
+...many tool calls...
+End of context: [Recently read task_plan.md - gets ATTENTION!]
+```
+
+### Principle 5: Keep the Wrong Stuff In
+
+> "Leave the wrong turns in the context."
+
+**Why:**
+- Failed actions with stack traces let model implicitly update beliefs
+- Reduces mistake repetition
+- Error recovery is "one of the clearest signals of TRUE agentic behavior"
+
+### Principle 6: Don't Get Few-Shotted
+
+> "Uniformity breeds fragility."
+
+**Problem:** Repetitive action-observation pairs cause drift and hallucination.
+
+**Solution:** Introduce controlled variation:
+- Vary phrasings slightly
+- Don't copy-paste patterns blindly
+- Recalibrate on repetitive tasks
+
+---
+
+## The 3 Context Engineering Strategies
+
+Based on Lance Martin's analysis of Manus architecture.
+
+### Strategy 1: Context Reduction
+
+**Compaction:**
+```
+Tool calls have TWO representations:
+├── FULL: Raw tool content (stored in filesystem)
+└── COMPACT: Reference/file path only
+
+RULES:
+- Apply compaction to STALE (older) tool results
+- Keep RECENT results FULL (to guide next decision)
+```
+
+**Summarization:**
+- Applied when compaction reaches diminishing returns
+- Generated using full tool results
+- Creates standardized summary objects
+
+### Strategy 2: Context Isolation (Multi-Agent)
+
+**Architecture:**
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────┐
+│         PLANNER AGENT           │
+│  └─ Assigns tasks to sub-agents │
+├─────────────────────────────────┤
+│       KNOWLEDGE MANAGER         │
+│  └─ Reviews conversations       │
+│  └─ Determines filesystem store │
+├─────────────────────────────────┤
+│      EXECUTOR SUB-AGENTS        │
+│  └─ Perform assigned tasks      │
+│  └─ Have own context windows    │
+└─────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Key Insight:** Manus originally used `todo.md` for task planning but found ~33% of actions were spent updating it. Shifted to dedicated planner agent calling executor sub-agents.
+
+### Strategy 3: Context Offloading
+
+**Tool Design:**
+- Use <20 atomic functions total
+- Store full results in filesystem, not context
+- Use `glob` and `grep` for searching
+- Progressive disclosure: load information only as needed
+
+---
+
+## The Agent Loop
+
+Manus operates in a continuous 7-step loop:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│  1. ANALYZE CONTEXT                      │
+│     - Understand user intent             │
+│     - Assess current state               │
+│     - Review recent observations         │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  2. THINK                                │
+│     - Should I update the plan?          │
+│     - What's the next logical action?    │
+│     - Are there blockers?                │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  3. SELECT TOOL                          │
+│     - Choose ONE tool                    │
+│     - Ensure parameters available        │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  4. EXECUTE ACTION                       │
+│     - Tool runs in sandbox               │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  5. RECEIVE OBSERVATION                  │
+│     - Result appended to context         │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  6. ITERATE                              │
+│     - Return to step 1                   │
+│     - Continue until complete            │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  7. DELIVER OUTCOME                      │
+│     - Send results to user               │
+│     - Attach all relevant files          │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```

+## File Types Manus Creates
+
+| File | Purpose | When Created | When Updated |
+|------|---------|--------------|--------------|
+| `task_plan.md` | Phase tracking, progress | Task start | After completing phases |
+| `findings.md` | Discoveries, decisions | After ANY discovery | After viewing images/PDFs |
+| `progress.md` | Session log, what's done | At breakpoints | Throughout session |
+| Code files | Implementation | Before execution | After errors |
+
+---
+
+## Critical Constraints
+
+- **Single-Action Execution:** ONE tool call per turn. No parallel execution.
+- **Plan is Required:** Agent must ALWAYS know: goal, current phase, remaining phases
+- **Files are Memory:** Context = volatile. Filesystem = persistent.
+- **Never Repeat Failures:** If action failed, next action MUST be different
+- **Communication is a Tool:** Message types: `info` (progress), `ask` (blocking), `result` (terminal)
+
+---
+
+## Manus Statistics
+
+| Metric | Value |
+|--------|-------|
+| Average tool calls per task | ~50 |
+| Input-to-output token ratio | 100:1 |
+| Acquisition price | $2 billion |
+| Time to $100M revenue | 8 months |
+| Framework refactors since launch | 5 times |
+
+---
+
+## Key Quotes
+
+> "Context window = RAM (volatile, limited). Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited). Anything important gets written to disk."
+
+> "if action_failed: next_action != same_action. Track what you tried. Mutate the approach."
+
+> "Error recovery is one of the clearest signals of TRUE agentic behavior."
+
+> "KV-cache hit rate is the single most important metric for a production-stage AI agent."
+
+> "Leave the wrong turns in the context."

+# Findings & Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Your knowledge base for the task. Stores everything you discover and decide.
+  WHY: Context windows are limited. This file is your "external memory" - persistent and unlimited.
+  WHEN: Update after ANY discovery, especially after 2 view/browser/search operations (2-Action Rule).
+-->
+
+## Requirements
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: What the user asked for, broken down into specific requirements.
+  WHY: Keeps requirements visible so you don't forget what you're building.
+  WHEN: Fill this in during Phase 1 (Requirements & Discovery).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Command-line interface
+    - Add tasks
+    - List all tasks
+    - Delete tasks
+    - Python implementation
+-->
+<!-- Captured from user request -->
+-
+
+## Research Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Key discoveries from web searches, documentation reading, or exploration.
+  WHY: Multimodal content (images, browser results) doesn't persist. Write it down immediately.
+  WHEN: After EVERY 2 view/browser/search operations, update this section (2-Action Rule).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python's argparse module supports subcommands for clean CLI design
+    - JSON module handles file persistence easily
+    - Standard pattern: python script.py <command> [args]
+-->
+<!-- Key discoveries during exploration -->
+-
+
+## Technical Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Architecture and implementation choices you've made, with reasoning.
+  WHY: You'll forget why you chose a technology or approach. This table preserves that knowledge.
+  WHEN: Update whenever you make a significant technical choice.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Use JSON for storage | Simple, human-readable, built-in Python support |
+    | argparse with subcommands | Clean CLI: python todo.py add "task" |
+-->
+<!-- Decisions made with rationale -->
+| Decision | Rationale |
+|----------|-----------|
+|          |           |
+
+## Issues Encountered
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Problems you ran into and how you solved them.
+  WHY: Similar to errors in task_plan.md, but focused on broader issues (not just code errors).
+  WHEN: Document when you encounter blockers or unexpected challenges.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Empty file causes JSONDecodeError | Added explicit empty file check before json.load() |
+-->
+<!-- Errors and how they were resolved -->
+| Issue | Resolution |
+|-------|------------|
+|       |            |
+
+## Resources
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: URLs, file paths, API references, documentation links you've found useful.
+  WHY: Easy reference for later. Don't lose important links in context.
+  WHEN: Add as you discover useful resources.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python argparse docs: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html
+    - Project structure: src/main.py, src/utils.py
+-->
+<!-- URLs, file paths, API references -->
+-
+
+## Visual/Browser Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Information you learned from viewing images, PDFs, or browser results.
+  WHY: CRITICAL - Visual/multimodal content doesn't persist in context. Must be captured as text.
+  WHEN: IMMEDIATELY after viewing images or browser results. Don't wait!
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Screenshot shows login form has email and password fields
+    - Browser shows API returns JSON with "status" and "data" keys
+-->

+# Pi Planning With Files
+
+> **Work like Manus** — Use persistent markdown files as your "working memory on disk."
+
+A [Pi Coding Agent](https://pi.dev) skill that transforms your workflow to use persistent markdown files for planning, progress tracking, and knowledge storage.
+
+## The Problem
+
+Most AI agents suffer from:
+- **Volatile memory** — Context resets lose history
+- **Goal drift** — Long tasks lose focus
+- **Hidden errors** — Failures aren't tracked
+
+## The Solution
+
+For every complex task, create THREE files:
+- `task_plan.md` (Phases & Progress)
+- `findings.md` (Research & Notes)
+- `progress.md` (Session Log)
+
+---
+
+## Installation
+
+### Pi Install
+
+```bash
+pi install npm:pi-planning-with-files
+```
+
+### Manual Install
+
+1. Navigate to your project root.
+2. Create the `.pi/skills` directory if it doesn't exist.
+3. Copy the `planning-with-files` skill folder into `.pi/skills/`.
+
+---
+
+## Usage
+
+Pi Agent automatically discovers skills in `.pi/skills` or installed via NPM.
+
+### Start Planning
+
+Ask Pi:
+```
+Use the planning-with-files skill to help me with this task.
+```
+Or:
+```
+Start by creating task_plan.md.
+```
+
+## Important Limitations
+
+> **Note:** Hooks (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop) are **Claude Code specific** and are not currently supported in Pi Agent.
+
+### What works in Pi Agent:
+- Core 3-file planning pattern

+description: Implements Manus-style file-based planning to organize and track progress on complex tasks. Creates task_plan.md, findings.md, and progress.md. Use when asked to plan out, break down, or organize a multi-step project, research task, or any work requiring >5 tool calls. Supports automatic session recovery after /clear.
+---
+
+# Planning with Files
+
+Work like Manus: Use persistent markdown files as your "working memory on disk."
+
+## FIRST: Check for Previous Session
+
+**Before starting work**, check for unsynced context from a previous session:
+
+> **Note:** The `scripts/` directory is inside this skill's installation folder.
+
+```bash
+# Linux/macOS
+python scripts/session-catchup.py "$(pwd)"
+```
+
+```powershell
+# Windows PowerShell
+python scripts\session-catchup.py" (Get-Location)
+```
+
+**If you cannot find the script:**
+Ask Pi to locate it for you:
+`Run the session-catchup.py script from the planning-with-files skill`
+
+If catchup report shows unsynced context:
+1. Run `git diff --stat` to see actual code changes
+2. Read current planning files
+3. Update planning files based on catchup + git diff
+4. Then proceed with task
+
+## Important: Where Files Go
+
+- **Templates** are in `templates/` inside this skill
+- **Your planning files** go in **your project directory**
+
+| Location | What Goes There |
+|----------|-----------------|
+| Skill directory | Templates, scripts, reference docs |
+| Your project directory | `task_plan.md`, `findings.md`, `progress.md` |
+
+## Quick Start
+
+Before ANY complex task:
+
+1. **Create `task_plan.md`** — Use [templates/task_plan.md](templates/task_plan.md) as reference
+2. **Create `findings.md`** — Use [templates/findings.md](templates/findings.md) as reference
+3. **Create `progress.md`** — Use [templates/progress.md](templates/progress.md) as reference
+4. **Re-read plan before decisions** — Refreshes goals in attention window
+5. **Update after each phase** — Mark complete, log errors
+
+> **Note:** Planning files go in your project root, not the skill installation folder.
+
+## The Core Pattern
+
+```
+Context Window = RAM (volatile, limited)
+Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited)
+
+→ Anything important gets written to disk.
+```
+
+## File Purposes
+
+| File | Purpose | When to Update |
+|------|---------|----------------|
+| `task_plan.md` | Phases, progress, decisions | After each phase |
+| `findings.md` | Research, discoveries | After ANY discovery |
+| `progress.md` | Session log, test results | Throughout session |
+
+## Critical Rules
+
+### 1. Create Plan First
+Never start a complex task without `task_plan.md`. Non-negotiable.
+
+### 2. The 2-Action Rule
+> "After every 2 view/browser/search operations, IMMEDIATELY save key findings to text files."
+
+This prevents visual/multimodal information from being lost.
+
+### 3. Read Before Decide
+Before major decisions, read the plan file. This keeps goals in your attention window.
+
+### 4. Update After Act
+After completing any phase:
+- Mark phase status: `in_progress` → `complete`
+- Log any errors encountered
+- Note files created/modified
+
+### 5. Log ALL Errors
+Every error goes in the plan file. This builds knowledge and prevents repetition.
+
+```markdown
+## Errors Encountered
+| Error | Attempt | Resolution |
+|-------|---------|------------|
+| FileNotFoundError | 1 | Created default config |
+| API timeout | 2 | Added retry logic |
+```
+
+### 6. Never Repeat Failures
+```
+if action_failed:
+    next_action != same_action
+```
+Track what you tried. Mutate the approach.
+
+## The 3-Strike Error Protocol
+
+```
+ATTEMPT 1: Diagnose & Fix
+  → Read error carefully
+  → Identify root cause
+  → Apply targeted fix
+
+ATTEMPT 2: Alternative Approach
+  → Same error? Try different method
+  → Different tool? Different library?
+  → NEVER repeat exact same failing action
+
+ATTEMPT 3: Broader Rethink
+  → Question assumptions
+  → Search for solutions
+  → Consider updating the plan
+
+AFTER 3 FAILURES: Escalate to User
+  → Explain what you tried
+  → Share the specific error
+  → Ask for guidance
+```
+
+## Read vs Write Decision Matrix
+
+| Situation | Action | Reason |
+|-----------|--------|--------|
+| Just wrote a file | DON'T read | Content still in context |
+| Viewed image/PDF | Write findings NOW | Multimodal → text before lost |
+| Browser returned data | Write to file | Screenshots don't persist |
+| Starting new phase | Read plan/findings | Re-orient if context stale |
+| Error occurred | Read relevant file | Need current state to fix |
+| Resuming after gap | Read all planning files | Recover state |
+
+## The 5-Question Reboot Test
+
+If you can answer these, your context management is solid:
+
+| Question | Answer Source |
+|----------|---------------|
+| Where am I? | Current phase in task_plan.md |
+| Where am I going? | Remaining phases |
+| What's the goal? | Goal statement in plan |
+| What have I learned? | findings.md |
+| What have I done? | progress.md |
+
+## When to Use This Pattern
+
+**Use for:**
+- Multi-step tasks (3+ steps)
+- Research tasks
+- Building/creating projects
+- Tasks spanning many tool calls
+- Anything requiring organization
+
+**Skip for:**
+- Simple questions
+- Single-file edits
+- Quick lookups
+
+## Templates
+
+Copy these templates to start:
+
+- [templates/task_plan.md](templates/task_plan.md) — Phase tracking
+- [templates/findings.md](templates/findings.md) — Research storage
+- [templates/progress.md](templates/progress.md) — Session logging
+
+## Scripts
+
+Helper scripts for automation:
+
+- `scripts/init-session.sh` — Initialize all planning files
+- `scripts/check-complete.sh` — Verify all phases complete
+- `scripts/session-catchup.py` — Recover context from previous session (v2.2.0)
+
+## Advanced Topics
+
+- **Manus Principles:** See [reference.md](reference.md)
+- **Real Examples:** See [examples.md](examples.md)
+
+## Anti-Patterns
+
+| Don't | Do Instead |
+|-------|------------|
+| Use TodoWrite for persistence | Create task_plan.md file |
+| State goals once and forget | Re-read plan before decisions |
+| Hide errors and retry silently | Log errors to plan file |
+| Stuff everything in context | Store large content in files |
+| Start executing immediately | Create plan file FIRST |
+| Repeat failed actions | Track attempts, mutate approach |
+| Create files in skill directory | Create files in your project |

+# Examples: Planning with Files in Action
+
+## Example 1: Research Task
+
+**User Request:** "Research the benefits of morning exercise and write a summary"
+
+### Loop 1: Create Plan
+```bash
+Write task_plan.md
+```
+
+```markdown
+# Task Plan: Morning Exercise Benefits Research
+
+## Goal
+Create a research summary on the benefits of morning exercise.
+
+## Phases
+- [ ] Phase 1: Create this plan ✓
+- [ ] Phase 2: Search and gather sources
+- [ ] Phase 3: Synthesize findings
+- [ ] Phase 4: Deliver summary
+
+## Key Questions
+1. What are the physical health benefits?
+2. What are the mental health benefits?
+3. What scientific studies support this?
+
+## Status
+**Currently in Phase 1** - Creating plan
+```
+
+### Loop 2: Research
+```bash
+Read task_plan.md           # Refresh goals
+WebSearch "morning exercise benefits"
+Write notes.md              # Store findings
+Edit task_plan.md           # Mark Phase 2 complete
+```
+
+### Loop 3: Synthesize
+```bash
+Read task_plan.md           # Refresh goals
+Read notes.md               # Get findings
+Write morning_exercise_summary.md
+Edit task_plan.md           # Mark Phase 3 complete
+```
+
+### Loop 4: Deliver
+```bash
+Read task_plan.md           # Verify complete
+Deliver morning_exercise_summary.md
+```
+
+---
+
+## Example 2: Bug Fix Task
+
+**User Request:** "Fix the login bug in the authentication module"
+
+### task_plan.md
+```markdown
+# Task Plan: Fix Login Bug
+
+## Goal
+Identify and fix the bug preventing successful login.
+
+## Phases
+- [x] Phase 1: Understand the bug report ✓
+- [x] Phase 2: Locate relevant code ✓
+- [ ] Phase 3: Identify root cause (CURRENT)
+- [ ] Phase 4: Implement fix
+- [ ] Phase 5: Test and verify
+
+## Key Questions
+1. What error message appears?
+2. Which file handles authentication?
+3. What changed recently?
+
+## Decisions Made
+- Auth handler is in src/auth/login.ts
+- Error occurs in validateToken() function
+
+## Errors Encountered
+- [Initial] TypeError: Cannot read property 'token' of undefined
+  → Root cause: user object not awaited properly
+
+## Status
+**Currently in Phase 3** - Found root cause, preparing fix
+```
+
+---
+
+## Example 3: Feature Development
+
+**User Request:** "Add a dark mode toggle to the settings page"
+
+### The 3-File Pattern in Action
+
+**task_plan.md:**
+```markdown
+# Task Plan: Dark Mode Toggle
+
+## Goal
+Add functional dark mode toggle to settings.
+
+## Phases
+- [x] Phase 1: Research existing theme system ✓
+- [x] Phase 2: Design implementation approach ✓
+- [ ] Phase 3: Implement toggle component (CURRENT)
+- [ ] Phase 4: Add theme switching logic
+- [ ] Phase 5: Test and polish
+
+## Decisions Made
+- Using CSS custom properties for theme
+- Storing preference in localStorage
+- Toggle component in SettingsPage.tsx
+
+## Status
+**Currently in Phase 3** - Building toggle component
+```
+
+**notes.md:**
+```markdown
+# Notes: Dark Mode Implementation
+
+## Existing Theme System
+- Located in: src/styles/theme.ts
+- Uses: CSS custom properties
+- Current themes: light only
+
+## Files to Modify
+1. src/styles/theme.ts - Add dark theme colors
+2. src/components/SettingsPage.tsx - Add toggle
+3. src/hooks/useTheme.ts - Create new hook
+4. src/App.tsx - Wrap with ThemeProvider
+
+## Color Decisions
+- Dark background: #1a1a2e
+- Dark surface: #16213e
+- Dark text: #eaeaea
+```
+
+**dark_mode_implementation.md:** (deliverable)
+```markdown
+# Dark Mode Implementation
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. Added dark theme colors
+File: src/styles/theme.ts
+...
+
+### 2. Created useTheme hook
+File: src/hooks/useTheme.ts
+...
+```
+
+---
+
+## Example 4: Error Recovery Pattern
+
+When something fails, DON'T hide it:
+
+### Before (Wrong)
+```
+Action: Read config.json
+Error: File not found
+Action: Read config.json  # Silent retry
+Action: Read config.json  # Another retry
+```
+
+### After (Correct)
+```
+Action: Read config.json
+Error: File not found
+
+# Update task_plan.md:
+## Errors Encountered
+- config.json not found → Will create default config
+
+Action: Write config.json (default config)
+Action: Read config.json
+Success!
+```
+
+---
+
+## The Read-Before-Decide Pattern
+
+**Always read your plan before major decisions:**
+
+```
+[Many tool calls have happened...]
+[Context is getting long...]
+[Original goal might be forgotten...]
+
+→ Read task_plan.md          # This brings goals back into attention!
+→ Now make the decision       # Goals are fresh in context
+```
+
+This is why Manus can handle ~50 tool calls without losing track. The plan file acts as a "goal refresh" mechanism.

+# Reference: Manus Context Engineering Principles
+
+This skill is based on context engineering principles from Manus, the AI agent company acquired by Meta for $2 billion in December 2025.
+
+## The 6 Manus Principles
+
+### Principle 1: Design Around KV-Cache
+
+> "KV-cache hit rate is THE single most important metric for production AI agents."
+
+**Statistics:**
+- ~100:1 input-to-output token ratio
+- Cached tokens: $0.30/MTok vs Uncached: $3/MTok
+- 10x cost difference!
+
+**Implementation:**
+- Keep prompt prefixes STABLE (single-token change invalidates cache)
+- NO timestamps in system prompts
+- Make context APPEND-ONLY with deterministic serialization
+
+### Principle 2: Mask, Don't Remove
+
+Don't dynamically remove tools (breaks KV-cache). Use logit masking instead.
+
+**Best Practice:** Use consistent action prefixes (e.g., `browser_`, `shell_`, `file_`) for easier masking.
+
+### Principle 3: Filesystem as External Memory
+
+> "Markdown is my 'working memory' on disk."
+
+**The Formula:**
+```
+Context Window = RAM (volatile, limited)
+Filesystem = Disk (persistent, unlimited)
+```
+
+**Compression Must Be Restorable:**
+- Keep URLs even if web content is dropped
+- Keep file paths when dropping document contents
+- Never lose the pointer to full data
+
+### Principle 4: Manipulate Attention Through Recitation
+
+> "Creates and updates todo.md throughout tasks to push global plan into model's recent attention span."
+
+**Problem:** After ~50 tool calls, models forget original goals ("lost in the middle" effect).
+
+**Solution:** Re-read `task_plan.md` before each decision. Goals appear in the attention window.
+
+```
+Start of context: [Original goal - far away, forgotten]
+...many tool calls...
+End of context: [Recently read task_plan.md - gets ATTENTION!]
+```
+
+### Principle 5: Keep the Wrong Stuff In
+
+> "Leave the wrong turns in the context."
+
+**Why:**
+- Failed actions with stack traces let model implicitly update beliefs
+- Reduces mistake repetition
+- Error recovery is "one of the clearest signals of TRUE agentic behavior"
+
+### Principle 6: Don't Get Few-Shotted
+
+> "Uniformity breeds fragility."
+
+**Problem:** Repetitive action-observation pairs cause drift and hallucination.
+
+**Solution:** Introduce controlled variation:
+- Vary phrasings slightly
+- Don't copy-paste patterns blindly
+- Recalibrate on repetitive tasks
+
+---
+
+## The 3 Context Engineering Strategies
+
+Based on Lance Martin's analysis of Manus architecture.
+
+### Strategy 1: Context Reduction
+
+**Compaction:**
+```
+Tool calls have TWO representations:
+├── FULL: Raw tool content (stored in filesystem)
+└── COMPACT: Reference/file path only
+
+RULES:
+- Apply compaction to STALE (older) tool results
+- Keep RECENT results FULL (to guide next decision)
+```
+
+**Summarization:**
+- Applied when compaction reaches diminishing returns
+- Generated using full tool results
+- Creates standardized summary objects
+
+### Strategy 2: Context Isolation (Multi-Agent)
+
+**Architecture:**
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────┐
+│         PLANNER AGENT           │
+│  └─ Assigns tasks to sub-agents │
+├─────────────────────────────────┤
+│       KNOWLEDGE MANAGER         │
+│  └─ Reviews conversations       │
+│  └─ Determines filesystem store │
+├─────────────────────────────────┤
+│      EXECUTOR SUB-AGENTS        │
+│  └─ Perform assigned tasks      │
+│  └─ Have own context windows    │
+└─────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**Key Insight:** Manus originally used `todo.md` for task planning but found ~33% of actions were spent updating it. Shifted to dedicated planner agent calling executor sub-agents.
+
+### Strategy 3: Context Offloading
+
+**Tool Design:**
+- Use <20 atomic functions total
+- Store full results in filesystem, not context
+- Use `glob` and `grep` for searching
+- Progressive disclosure: load information only as needed
+
+---
+
+## The Agent Loop
+
+Manus operates in a continuous 7-step loop:
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│  1. ANALYZE CONTEXT                      │
+│     - Understand user intent             │
+│     - Assess current state               │
+│     - Review recent observations         │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  2. THINK                                │
+│     - Should I update the plan?          │
+│     - What's the next logical action?    │
+│     - Are there blockers?                │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  3. SELECT TOOL                          │
+│     - Choose ONE tool                    │
+│     - Ensure parameters available        │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  4. EXECUTE ACTION                       │
+│     - Tool runs in sandbox               │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  5. RECEIVE OBSERVATION                  │
+│     - Result appended to context         │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  6. ITERATE                              │
+│     - Return to step 1                   │
+│     - Continue until complete            │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│  7. DELIVER OUTCOME                      │
+│     - Send results to user               │
+│     - Attach all relevant files          │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```

+## File Types Manus Creates
+
+| File | Purpose | When Created | When Updated |
+|------|---------|--------------|--------------|
+| `task_plan.md` | Phase tracking, progress | Task start | After completing phases |
+| `findings.md` | Discoveries, decisions | After ANY discovery | After viewing images/PDFs |
+| `progress.md` | Session log, what's done | At breakpoints | Throughout session |
+| Code files | Implementation | Before execution | After errors |
+
+---
+
+## Critical Constraints
+
+- **Single-Action Execution:** ONE tool call per turn. No parallel execution.
+- **Plan is Required:** Agent must ALWAYS know: goal, current phase, remaining phases
+- **Files are Memory:** Context = volatile. Filesystem = persistent.
+- **Never Repeat Failures:** If action failed, next action MUST be different
+- **Communication is a Tool:** Message types: `info` (progress), `ask` (blocking), `result` (terminal)
+
+---
+
+## Manus Statistics
+
+| Metric | Value |
+|--------|-------|
+| Average tool calls per task | ~50 |
+| Input-to-output token ratio | 100:1 |
+| Acquisition price | $2 billion |
+| Time to $100M revenue | 8 months |
+| Framework refactors since launch | 5 times |

+# Findings & Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Your knowledge base for the task. Stores everything you discover and decide.
+  WHY: Context windows are limited. This file is your "external memory" - persistent and unlimited.
+  WHEN: Update after ANY discovery, especially after 2 view/browser/search operations (2-Action Rule).
+-->
+
+## Requirements
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: What the user asked for, broken down into specific requirements.
+  WHY: Keeps requirements visible so you don't forget what you're building.
+  WHEN: Fill this in during Phase 1 (Requirements & Discovery).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Command-line interface
+    - Add tasks
+    - List all tasks
+    - Delete tasks
+    - Python implementation
+-->
+<!-- Captured from user request -->
+-
+
+## Research Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Key discoveries from web searches, documentation reading, or exploration.
+  WHY: Multimodal content (images, browser results) doesn't persist. Write it down immediately.
+  WHEN: After EVERY 2 view/browser/search operations, update this section (2-Action Rule).
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python's argparse module supports subcommands for clean CLI design
+    - JSON module handles file persistence easily
+    - Standard pattern: python script.py <command> [args]
+-->
+<!-- Key discoveries during exploration -->
+-
+
+## Technical Decisions
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Architecture and implementation choices you've made, with reasoning.
+  WHY: You'll forget why you chose a technology or approach. This table preserves that knowledge.
+  WHEN: Update whenever you make a significant technical choice.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Use JSON for storage | Simple, human-readable, built-in Python support |
+    | argparse with subcommands | Clean CLI: python todo.py add "task" |
+-->
+<!-- Decisions made with rationale -->
+| Decision | Rationale |
+|----------|-----------|
+|          |           |
+
+## Issues Encountered
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Problems you ran into and how you solved them.
+  WHY: Similar to errors in task_plan.md, but focused on broader issues (not just code errors).
+  WHEN: Document when you encounter blockers or unexpected challenges.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | Empty file causes JSONDecodeError | Added explicit empty file check before json.load() |
+-->
+<!-- Errors and how they were resolved -->
+| Issue | Resolution |
+|-------|------------|
+|       |            |
+
+## Resources
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: URLs, file paths, API references, documentation links you've found useful.
+  WHY: Easy reference for later. Don't lose important links in context.
+  WHEN: Add as you discover useful resources.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Python argparse docs: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html
+    - Project structure: src/main.py, src/utils.py
+-->
+<!-- URLs, file paths, API references -->
+-
+
+## Visual/Browser Findings
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Information you learned from viewing images, PDFs, or browser results.
+  WHY: CRITICAL - Visual/multimodal content doesn't persist in context. Must be captured as text.
+  WHEN: IMMEDIATELY after viewing images or browser results. Don't wait!
+  EXAMPLE:
+    - Screenshot shows login form has email and password fields
+    - Browser shows API returns JSON with "status" and "data" keys
+-->
+<!-- CRITICAL: Update after every 2 view/browser operations -->
+<!-- Multimodal content must be captured as text immediately -->
+-
+
+---
+<!-- 
+  REMINDER: The 2-Action Rule
+  After every 2 view/browser/search operations, you MUST update this file.
+  This prevents visual information from being lost when context resets.

+## 5-Question Reboot Check
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Five questions that verify your context is solid. If you can answer these, you're on track.
+  WHY: This is the "reboot test" - if you can answer all 5, you can resume work effectively.
+  WHEN: Update periodically, especially when resuming after a break or context reset.
+  
+  THE 5 QUESTIONS:
+  1. Where am I? → Current phase in task_plan.md
+  2. Where am I going? → Remaining phases
+  3. What's the goal? → Goal statement in task_plan.md
+  4. What have I learned? → See findings.md
+  5. What have I done? → See progress.md (this file)
+-->
+<!-- If you can answer these, context is solid -->

+## Errors Encountered
+<!-- 
+  WHAT: Every error you encounter, what attempt number it was, and how you resolved it.
+  WHY: Logging errors prevents repeating the same mistakes. This is critical for learning.
+  WHEN: Add immediately when an error occurs, even if you fix it quickly.
+  EXAMPLE:
+    | FileNotFoundError | 1 | Check if file exists, create empty list if not |
+    | JSONDecodeError | 2 | Handle empty file case explicitly |

+## [2.18.2] - 2026-02-26
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Mastra Code hooks were silently doing nothing**
+  - Root cause: Mastra Code reads hooks from `.mastracode/hooks.json`, not from SKILL.md frontmatter. The existing integration had hooks defined only in SKILL.md (Claude Code format), which Mastra Code ignores entirely. All three hooks (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop) were non-functional.
+  - Added `.mastracode/hooks.json` with proper Mastra Code format including `matcher`, `timeout`, and `description` fields
+  - Fixed `MASTRACODE_SKILL_ROOT` env var in SKILL.md Stop hook (variable does not exist in Mastra Code, replaced with `$HOME` fallback to local path)
+  - Bumped `.mastracode/skills/planning-with-files/SKILL.md` metadata version from 2.16.1 to 2.18.1
+  - Corrected `docs/mastra.md` to accurately describe hooks.json (removed false claim that Mastra Code uses the same hook system as Claude Code)
+  - Fixed personal installation instructions to include hooks.json copy step
+
+---
+
+## [2.18.1] - 2026-02-26
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Copilot hooks garbled characters — still broken after v2.16.1** (Issue #82, confirmed by @Hexiaopi)
+  - Root cause: `Get-Content` in all PS1 scripts had no `-Encoding` parameter — PowerShell 5.x reads files using the system ANSI code page (Windows-1252) by default, corrupting any non-ASCII character in `task_plan.md` or `SKILL.md` before it reaches the output pipe. The v2.16.1 fix was correct but fixed only the output side, not the read side.
+  - Secondary fix: `[System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8` returns UTF-8 with BOM — replaced with `[System.Text.UTF8Encoding]::new($false)` (UTF-8 without BOM) in all four PS1 scripts to prevent JSON parsers from receiving a stray `0xEF 0xBB 0xBF` preamble
+  - Fixed files: `pre-tool-use.ps1`, `session-start.ps1`, `agent-stop.ps1`, `post-tool-use.ps1`
+  - Bash scripts were already correct from v2.16.1
+
+### Thanks
+
+- @Hexiaopi for confirming the issue persisted after v2.16.1 (Issue #82)

+
+## [2.18.0] - 2026-02-26
+
+### Added
+
+- **BoxLite sandbox runtime integration** (Issue #84 by @DorianZheng)
+  - New `docs/boxlite.md` guide for running planning-with-files inside BoxLite micro-VM sandboxes via ClaudeBox
+  - New `examples/boxlite/quickstart.py` — working Python example using ClaudeBox's Skill API to inject planning-with-files into a VM
+  - New `examples/boxlite/README.md` — example context and requirements
+  - README: new "Sandbox Runtimes" section (BoxLite is infrastructure, not an IDE — kept separate from the 16-platform IDE table)
+  - README: BoxLite badge and Documentation table entry added
+  - BoxLite loads via ClaudeBox (`pip install claudebox`) using its Python Skill object — no `.boxlite/` folder needed
+
+### Thanks
+
+- @DorianZheng for the BoxLite integration proposal (Issue #84)

+
+## [2.17.0] - 2026-02-25
+
+### Added
+
+- **Mastra Code support** — new `.mastracode/skills/planning-with-files/` integration with native hooks (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop), full scripts, templates, and installation guide (platform #16)
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Skill metadata spec compliance** — applied PR #83 fixes across all 12 IDE-specific SKILL.md files:
+  - `allowed-tools` YAML list → comma-separated string (Codex, Cursor, Kilocode, CodeBuddy, OpenCode)
+  - `version` moved from top-level to `metadata.version` across all applicable files
+  - Description updated with trigger terms ("plan out", "break down", "organize", "track progress") in all IDEs
+  - Version bumped to 2.16.1 everywhere, including canonical `skills/planning-with-files/SKILL.md`
+  - OpenClaw inline JSON metadata expanded to proper block YAML

+### Thanks
+
+- @popey for the PR #83 spec fixes that identified the issues

+
+## [2.16.1] - 2026-02-25
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Copilot hooks garbled characters on Windows** (Issue #82, reported by @Hexiaopi)
+  - PowerShell scripts now set `$OutputEncoding` and `[Console]::OutputEncoding` to UTF-8 before any output — fixes garbled diamond characters (◆) caused by PowerShell 5.x defaulting to UTF-16LE stdout
+  - Bash scripts now use `json.dumps(..., ensure_ascii=False)` — preserves UTF-8 characters (emojis, accented letters, CJK) in `task_plan.md` instead of converting them to raw `XXXX` escape sequences
+
+### Thanks
+
+- @Hexiaopi for reporting the garbled characters issue (Issue #82)

+
+## [2.16.0] - 2026-02-22
+
+### Added
+
+- **GitHub Copilot Support** (PR #80 by @lincolnwan)
+  - Native GitHub Copilot hooks integration (early 2026 hooks feature)
+  - Created `.github/hooks/planning-with-files.json` configuration
+  - Added full hook scripts in `.github/hooks/scripts/`
+  - Cross-platform support (bash + PowerShell)
+  - Added `docs/copilot.md` installation guide
+  - Added GitHub Copilot badge to README
+  - This brings total supported platforms to 15

+- **Pi Agent Support** (PR #67 by @ttttmr)
+  - Full Pi Agent (pi.dev) integration
+  - Created `.pi/skills/planning-with-files/` skill bundle
+  - Added `package.json` for NPM installation (`pi install npm:pi-planning-with-files`)
+  - Full templates, scripts, and references included
+  - Cross-platform support (macOS, Linux, Windows)
+  - Added `docs/pi-agent.md` installation guide
+  - Added Pi Agent badge to README
+  - Note: Hooks are Claude Code-specific and not supported in Pi Agent
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Codex Skill Path References** (PR #66 by @codelyc)
+  - Replaced broken `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT` references with correct Codex paths (`~/.codex/skills/planning-with-files/`)

-## Help Us Test Session Management Features!
-
-I've implemented session management patterns from Anthropic's article ["Effective harnesses for long-running agents"](https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/effective-harnesses-for-long-running-agents) in the **`feature/anthropic-patterns`** branch.
-
-These features need testing before merging to main. **Your feedback is critical!**
-
----
-
-## What's New
-
-### 1. Session Initialization Script
-Run at the start of every session:
-```bash
-bash scripts/init-session.sh
-```
-
-**What it does:**
-- ✅ Verifies planning files exist
-- ✅ Shows current phase and git status
-- ✅ Displays last commit
-- ✅ Logs session start to progress.md
-- ✅ Creates missing files if needed
-
-### 2. Pass/Fail Status Tracking
-Enhanced `task_plan.md` template with:
-- Status icons: ⏸️ Pending | 🔄 In Progress | ✅ Pass | ❌ Fail | ⏭️ Skipped
-- Test Results table for each phase
-- Git Checkpoints table to log commits
-- Phase Summary table for quick overview
-
-### 3. Git Checkpoint Workflow
-New documentation: `docs/git-checkpoints.md`
-- "One phase, one commit" pattern
-- Use git commits as rollback points
-- Integrates with task_plan.md
-
-### 4. Session-Start Verification
-Automated checklist that verifies:
-- Planning files present
-- Git working tree clean
-- Current branch status
-- Last commit information
-
----
-
-## How to Test
-
-### 1. Checkout the Branch
-```bash
-cd your-planning-with-files-repo
-git fetch origin
-git checkout feature/anthropic-patterns
-```
-
-### 2. Try It In a Test Project
-```bash
-cd ~/your-test-project
-bash /path/to/planning-with-files/scripts/init-session.sh
-```
-
-### 3. Work Through a Multi-Phase Task
-- Let the script create planning files
-- Define some phases in task_plan.md
-- Complete a phase and test it
-- Mark it as ✅ Pass with test results
-- Commit: `git commit -m "feat(Phase 1): description"`
-- Log the commit hash in Git Checkpoints table
-- Start a new session and run init-session.sh again
-
-### 4. Read the Implementation Summary
-See `IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md` in the branch for full details.
-
----
-
-## What We Need Feedback On
-
-1. **Does init-session.sh work on your system?**
-   - Unix/Mac: Does the bash script run smoothly?
-   - Windows: Does the PowerShell version work?
-
-2. **Is the new task_plan.md template helpful?**
-   - Are the status icons clear?
-   - Is the Test Results table useful?
-   - Does the Git Checkpoints table make sense?
-
-3. **Does the workflow feel natural?**
-   - Plan → Implement → Verify → Commit
-   - Does session recovery work when you restart?
-
-4. **Any bugs or issues?**
-   - Errors when running scripts?
-   - Confusing documentation?
-   - Missing features?
-
-5. **Suggestions for improvement?**
-   - What would make this better?
-   - Any patterns from the Anthropic article we missed?
