What problem does it solve? When you want a concrete, reviewable implementation plan before any code is touched, this Skill enforces a plan-only mode: the agent inspects context with read-only commands, writes a structured markdown plan, and performs no edits, commits, or mutating actions. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Plan-only enforcement: Prohibits code edits, mutating terminal commands, commits, pushes, and external actions during the planning turn. - Structured plan output: Produces a markdown plan covering goal, context, approach, step-by-step tasks, files likely to change, tests, risks, and open questions. - Workspace-aware saving: Stores plans under .hermes/plans/YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS-<slug>.md, working across local, docker, ssh, modal, and daytona backends. - Use Case: Before refactoring an authentication module, invoke plan mode to get a saved markdown document listing exact file paths, test targets, and verification steps for team review. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to plan the implementation of your feature and save the plan to the workspace without making any code changes.
