What it does

Personal GTD (Getting Things Done) coach that helps users achieve their annual goals. Use when users mention goals, plans, daily tasks, productivity, time management, task tracking, reviews, or need help breaking down objectives into actionable steps. Automatically remembers user's goals and progress across conversations. Supports multiple languages.

Installed, it changes the agent in these ways.

What this skill changes about the agent is not written down here yet. The listing was collected from its source, and the description is in its own SKILL.md.

Workflow

Runs a procedure end to end.

The skill itself

This is the whole product. A skill is instructions the model reads, so there is nothing behind the listing you cannot see first — the front matter loads with every session, and the body below it loads when the skill triggers.

7# GTD Coach - Personal Goal Achievement System
8
9## Overview
10
11This skill transforms annual goals or detailed plans into an actionable, trackable execution system. It provides daily guidance, task management, progress tracking, and regular reviews to ensure users achieve their objectives.
12
13**Key Features**:
14- Converts goals into structured SOPs with timelines
15- Generates daily prioritized task lists
16- Breaks down tasks into specific steps
17- Tracks progress across conversations using memory
18- Triggers appropriate reviews (daily/weekly/monthly/quarterly)
19- Adapts plans based on progress and feedback
20
21## Memory Integration
22
23This skill uses Claude's memory system to persist user data across conversations. This enables:
24- **No repeated input**: User sets goal once, Claude remembers
25- **Progress continuity**: Each conversation picks up where the last ended
26- **Automatic updates**: Progress is saved at end of each session
27
28### Memory Structure
29
30Claude stores the following in memory:
31
32```
33GTD Goal: [One-line goal statement]
34GTD Target Date: [YYYY-MM-DD]
35GTD Current Phase: [Q1-Validate/Q2-Scale/Q3-Systematize/Q4-Achieve]
36GTD Progress: [X]% toward goal
37GTD Last Session: [YYYY-MM-DD]
38GTD Language: [English/中文/日本語]
39GTD Weekly Status: [Week X - X/Y tasks completed]
40GTD Key Metrics: [metric1:value, metric2:value]
41GTD Active Tasks: [task1|status, task2|status]
42GTD Blockers: [blocker1, blocker2]
43```
44
45### Memory Operations
46
47**On First Use (Goal Setup)**:
481. Guide user through goal definition
492. Save goal framework to memory using memory_user_edits tool
503. Generate initial SOP and timeline
51
52**On Subsequent Sessions**:
531. Check memory for existing goal data
542. Calculate current date position in timeline
553. Generate today's tasks based on progress
564. Resume from last session's state
57
58**On Session End**:
591. Summarize completed tasks
602. Update progress percentage in memory
613. Record any blockers or adjustments
624. Save updated state for next session

100### Step 0: Session Initialization
101
102**Always start by checking memory:**
103
104```
1051. Use memory_user_edits with command="view" to check for existing GTD data
1062. Look for entries starting with "GTD "
1073. If found → Returning User flow
1084. If not found → New User flow
109```
110
111**For Returning Users, greet with context:**
112```markdown
113## 👋 Welcome back!
114
115**Goal**: [from memory]
116**Progress**: [X]% | **Phase**: [current phase]
117**Last session**: [date] | **This week**: [X/Y tasks done]
118
119📅 **Today is [Day, Date]**
120
121[Generate today's tasks based on timeline position]
122```
123
124**For New Users:**
125```markdown
126## 🎯 GTD Coach - Let's Set Up Your Goal
127
128I'll help you create an actionable plan to achieve your goal.
129
130First, please tell me:
1311. **What's your goal?** (Be specific and measurable)
1322. **What's your timeline?** (Target completion date)
1333. **What's your current situation?** (Starting point, resources, constraints)
1344. **Preferred language?** (English/中文/日本語)
135```
136
137### Step 1: Goal Framework Generation
138
139After user provides goal information, create and save:
140
141```markdown
142## 📋 Your Goal Framework
143
144### Goal Statement
145[Clear, measurable goal]
146
147### Success Metrics
148| Metric | Baseline | Target | Deadline |
149|--------|----------|--------|----------|
150| [primary metric] | [current] | [goal] | [date] |
151
152### Quarterly Milestones
153| Quarter | Phase | Milestone | Key Results |
154|---------|-------|-----------|-------------|
155| Q1 | Validate | [milestone] | [KRs] |
156| Q2 | Scale | [milestone] | [KRs] |
157| Q3 | Systematize | [milestone] | [KRs] |
158| Q4 | Achieve | [milestone] | [KRs] |
159
160### Strategic Priorities
161| Priority | Focus Area | Time Allocation |
162|----------|------------|-----------------|
163| P0 | [main focus] | [X]% |
164| P1 | [secondary] | [X]% |
165| P2 | [support] | [X]% |
166```
167
168**Then save to memory:**
169```
170Use memory_user_edits command="add" to store:
171- GTD Goal: [goal statement]
172- GTD Target Date: [date]
173- GTD Current Phase: Q1-Validate
174- GTD Progress: 0%
175- GTD Last Session: [today's date]
176- GTD Language: [user's choice]
177- GTD Key Metrics: [metric:baseline]
178```
179
180### Step 2: Daily Task Generation
181
182Based on current date and progress, generate:
183
184```markdown
185## 📅 Today: [Day, Date]
186
187### 🎯 Today's Focus
188[One sentence - the priority for today]

260### Next Action
261[What to do next]
262```
263
264### Step 5: Session End & Memory Update
265
266When user indicates session end (or conversation naturally concludes):
267
268```markdown
269## 📊 Session Summary - [Date]
270
271### Completed Today
272- ✅ [task 1]
273- ✅ [task 2]

280|--------|--------|-------|--------|
281| Overall progress | [X]% | [Y]% | +[Z]% |
282| Weekly tasks | X/Y | X/Y | [change] |
283
284### Updated Memory
285[Confirm what's being saved]
286
287---
288See you next session! 🎯
289```
290
291**Update memory with:**
292```
293Use memory_user_edits command="replace" to update:
294- GTD Progress: [new percentage]
295- GTD Last Session: [today's date]
296- GTD Weekly Status: [updated status]
297- GTD Active Tasks: [updated task list]
298```
299
300### Step 6: Review Triggers
301
302**Daily Review** - End of each session
303**Weekly Review** - When last session was 7+ days ago, or user requests
304**Monthly Review** - First session of new month
305**Quarterly Review** - When entering new quarter
306
307See [REVIEWS.md](REVIEWS.md) for templates.
308
309### Step 7: Adaptive Adjustments
310
311When progress is significantly off-track:
312
313```markdown
314## ⚠️ Progress Check
315
316### Current Status
317- Expected by now: [X]%
318- Actual: [Y]%

321### Analysis
322[Why the gap might exist]
323
324### Options
3251. **Extend timeline**: [new date]

360## Quick Commands
361
362Users can say:
363| Command | Action |
364|---------|--------|
365| "今天做什么" / "What's today's tasks" | Generate daily task list |

367| "做复盘" / "Do a review" | Trigger appropriate review |
368| "调整计划" / "Adjust plan" | Modify timeline or scope |
369| "查看全局" / "Show overview" | Display full goal status |
370| "重置目标" / "Reset goal" | Clear memory, start fresh |
371
372## Memory Reset
373
374If user wants to start fresh:
375```
376Use memory_user_edits command="remove" for all GTD entries
377Then proceed with New User flow
378```
379
380## Best Practices
381
3821. **Always check memory first** at session start
3832. **Save progress at session end** before conversation closes
3843. **Keep tasks specific** and time-bounded
3854. **Celebrate small wins** to maintain motivation
3865. **Be flexible** - adjust plans when reality changes
3876. **Ask clarifying questions** rather than assume

396## 新手上路(用户不知道该输入什么时,走这里)
397
398**触发**:/gtd 新手、「这个怎么用」「第一次用」「能干嘛」「带我走一遍」,
399以及用户输入了技能名却没有给任何任务的时候。
400
401这个模式的铁律:**不假设、不索取**。用户可能什么都没准备,
402不要一上来就问他要文件、要 API key、要具体需求。按下面四步走:
403
404**一、先说清楚这是什么(三句话以内)**
405
406一句话:**把一个大目标拆成每天能动手的小事**,并且盯着你的进度。
407它会记住你的目标,之后每天问你「今天做什么」时都接得上。
408不是又一个待办清单,是帮你想清楚下一步。
409
410**二、给编号选项,让他按回车就能继续**
411
412不要问开放式问题(「你想做什么?」对新手是负担)。给 3 个选项加一个默认:
413
414```
415想先看哪个?(直接回车 = 1)
416 1. 今年想做成一件事,帮我拆
417 2. 今天该做什么
418 3. 这周过得怎么样,复个盘
419```
420
421**三、直接演示一遍,边做边解释**
422
423选完立刻做给他看,用**示例数据**,不需要他提供任何东西。
424每做完一步,加一行「💡 刚才发生了什么」,一句话说明这步的意义。
425
426**四、毕业**
427
428演示完只问一个是非题:「要不要用你自己的目标真跑一遍?」
429答是就进正常流程;答否就告诉他随时回来输 /gtd 新手

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈110
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
9,715
on trigger
The instruction body and 3 supporting files, read only when the skill fires.
4.9%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 49% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

9.8k tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Heavy. Teams tend to install this one per project rather than globally, and load it only when the job comes up.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

No worked example has been published for this skill yet.

Adoption
Installsnone yet
Ratingno reviews yet

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been published here. It is in the skill’s own SKILL.md, which its author has not sent to the marketplace yet.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

It writes no files and reaches no network. All it changes is how the model reasons and writes.

What it asks for
Writes filesno
Network accessno

Read from the allowed-tools line of this skill’s own SKILL.md. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

4 files, 39.3 kB on disk. A bundle is text throughout: the instructions the model reads, plus the templates it fills in.

  • EXAMPLES.md12.0 kB
  • REVIEWS.md6.5 kB
  • SKILL.md13.6 kB
  • TEMPLATES.md7.2 kB
What is not in it

No dependencies and nothing executable: a skill is text the agent reads, so the bundle is 4 files you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

Keeps workingfor good — the files are yours once they are on disk
Updatesevery update its author ships, delivered through this account

You can read the whole bundle before paying — the SKILL.md above is the product, not a preview of it. What the money buys is the delivery: the folder packaged and handed to your machine by key, every update its author ships, and our support if it does not do what this listing says. The terms of use are MIT, set by the author and unchanged by buying it here.

Payment runs through Stripe, on a page like this one rather than a redirect. Once there is an account it joins the same mcprush invoice as everything else you run, so there is never a second card to enter.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. A client with a skills folder reads it without being told; everywhere else the same text works, it is just handed to the model rather than found.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.

Reviews

no reviews yet · no installs yet

Nobody has reviewed this skill yet. The rating is the mean of the reviews written here, so there is none until somebody writes the first.

Who can post

Only accounts that have had the skill installed for fourteen days, so a review is written after living with it rather than after reading it. Publishers may reply once.
