A Claude Code diary and planner workspace for daily, weekly, and monthly planning

The last workspace template in this batch is one I use daily. The Claude Diary Planner Template is a structured repository for workflow planning and time management using Claude Code. It operates at three temporal levels: daily, weekly, and monthly, and maintains connections between immediate tasks and longer-term objectives.

Three specialized agents

The template includes three agents that cover different aspects of planning. The workflow-planner generates time-blocked schedules with task allocation. The goal-architect creates and tracks objectives across different time horizons. And the time-triage-specialist implements task prioritization when you have more to do than hours in the day.

The slash commands are where the daily workflow lives. /daily-plan produces a time-blocked daily schedule. /weekly-plan generates a seven-day schedule with balanced workload distribution. /triage-tasks takes an unorganized task dump and sorts it into a prioritized, actionable list. And /review-week runs a retrospective analysis of how your planned week actually went.

Energy-aware planning

One of the things I like most about this template is how the setup wizard captures your energy patterns and productivity data. When you run /setup-workspace, it asks about your timezone, work schedule, energy patterns, and temporal constraints. Then every plan it generates takes these into account, scheduling deep work during your peak hours and lighter tasks when your energy dips.

The goal management is also nicely done. You can define objectives using SMART criteria, OKRs, or freeform goals, and the planner ensures your daily and weekly schedules actually connect back to your longer-term objectives. It's the kind of alignment that's easy to lose track of when you're deep in the weeds of daily work.

The retrospective loop

The /review-week command is where iterative improvement happens. It analyzes how your actual week compared to the plan, identifies variances, and extracts lessons for future planning. Over time, the workspace learns your patterns and the plans get more realistic and useful.

The template also includes an education/ directory with time management reference materials, which is a nice touch. Plans are stored in workplans/ and goals in goals/, both with customizable templates for output formatting.

If you're looking for a terminal-native planning system that actually adapts to how you work, check out the template on GitHub. It's MIT licensed and part of a broader collection of Claude Code workspace templates I've been building.
