What This Skill Does
Tracks personal goals across categories like health, finance, career, and learning. Helps decompose large goals into milestones, monitors progress percentages, and flags stalled goals. Reads and updates a persistent goals file to maintain continuity across sessions.
Persistent file-backed memory means goal context survives across sessions without the user re-explaining their situation each time.
When to use it
- Breaking a career change goal into weekly action steps
- Checking how close you are to a savings target
- Reviewing which New Year resolutions are still active
- Adjusting a deadline that turned out to be unrealistic
- Getting a weekly retrospective on completed and stuck goals
