Goal — persistent project objective

A goal is a single objective the agent keeps pursuing across turns and sessions until it is marked done. Inspired by Prime Agent's thread goal: state lives outside any one conversation, so any tool with this skill installed (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, ...) picks up where another left off.

State file

One file per project: .goal.md in the repository root. Human-readable and human-editable on purpose — pause, resume, edit, and clear are controlled by the user editing the file directly.
