Matt Pocock releases wayfinder AI planning skill

• Wayfinder is a new AI skill designed to help manage projects that lack clear end goals or defined paths forward.
• The skill spreads planning work across multiple separate threads instead of cramming everything into one conversation window, letting agents handle different project phases independently.
• Wayfinder uses specific terms like map, ticket, and session to guide agents through research, prototyping, and building work while humans explore unknowns.

Matt Pocock released a new AI skill called wayfinder designed to help users and agents navigate projects with unclear endpoints by managing planning sessions across multiple threads rather than constraining planning to a single context window. The skill uses precise terminology like map, ticket, and session to guide agents through research, prototyping, and task work while the human explores unknown unknowns.
