Iterative Planner A Claude Code skill that turns ad-hoc agent runs into structured, recoverable, evidence-driven work. Without structure, Claude plans once, hits a wall, and layers fixes on fixes until it loses track of what it already tried. Iterative Planner forces a state machine — Explore, Plan, Execute, Reflect, Pivot, Close — and writes every decision, finding, and pivot to disk. The filesystem is persistent working memory. The context window can rot; the plan directory cannot. Works for refactoring, migrations, debugging, system design, deep research — anything where "just do it" leads to a mess.
