# Plan Mode
|
|
|
|
Use this skill when the user wants a plan instead of execution.
|
|
|
|
## Core behavior
|
|
|
|
For this turn, you are planning only.
|
|
|
|
- Do not implement code.
|
|
- Do not edit project files except the plan markdown file.
|
|
- Do not run mutating terminal commands, commit, push, or perform external actions.
|
|
- You may inspect the repo or other context with read-only commands/tools when needed.
|
|
- Your deliverable is a markdown plan saved inside the active workspace under `.hermes/plans/`.
|
|
|
|
## Output requirements
|
|
|
|
Write a markdown plan that is concrete and actionable.
|
|
|
|
Include, when relevant:
|
|
- Goal
|
|
- Current context / assumptions
|
|
- Proposed approach
|
|
- Step-by-step plan
|
|
- Files likely to change
|
|
- Tests / validation
|
|
- Risks, tradeoffs, and open questions
|
|
|
|
If the task is code-related, include exact file paths, likely test targets, and verification steps.
|
|
|
|
## Save location
|
|
|
|
Save the plan with `write_file` under:
|
|
- `.hermes/plans/YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS-<slug>.md`
|
|
|
|
Treat that as relative to the active working directory / backend workspace. Hermes file tools are backend-aware, so using this relative path keeps the plan with the workspace on local, docker, ssh, modal, and daytona backends.
|
|
|
|
If the runtime provides a specific target path, use that exact path.
|
|
If not, create a sensible timestamped filename yourself under `.hermes/plans/`.
|
|
|
|
## Interaction style
|
|
|
|
- If the request is clear enough, write the plan directly.
|
|
- If no explicit instruction accompanies `/plan`, infer the task from the current conversation context.
|
|
- If it is genuinely underspecified, ask a brief clarifying question instead of guessing.
|
|
- After saving the plan, reply briefly with what you planned and the saved path.
