FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a markdown plan from current task context?▼

To generate a markdown plan, invoke plan mode to automatically extract context and create a structured document. The plan is saved to the workspace under .hermes/plans/ with a timestamped filename.

What is the best way to automate planning documents for feature work?▼

Automating planning documents is done by invoking plan mode, which drafts a concise markdown outline from active context. This removes manual drafting effort and saves the final plan to .hermes/plans/.

Does planning mode execute code or modify files outside the plan path?▼

Planning mode enforces read-only behavior and does not execute code or modify files outside the plan path. It uses read-only context when necessary and only saves the final markdown plan under .hermes/plans/.

How are markdown plan files named when saved to a Hermes workspace?▼

Markdown plan files are saved with a deterministic timestamped filename. The format follows .hermes/plans/YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS-<slug>.md to ensure chronological organization.

Can I use this planning automation for research tasks across any workspace?▼

Yes, this planning automation applies to Hermes planning tasks across any workspace. It supports outlining steps for both feature work and research, generating structured markdown plans accordingly.

Do I need any dependencies to create deterministic markdown plans?▼

No dependencies are required to create deterministic markdown plans. The plan mode operates independently using current context to generate and save the final document under .hermes/plans/.
