plan

To generate a markdown plan without executing code, request a concrete plan and the system outputs a structured markdown file. This deterministic planning approach creates reference documents for task decomposition while preventing unintended script execution.

Generated markdown plans are stored in the .hermes/plans/ directory. The system creates a single timestamped plan file at this predictable path, ensuring you can easily locate and retrieve generated workflow documentation for later reference.

Yes, you can use this planning tool for sprint planning and project scoping. It applies deterministic documentation to reduce ambiguity by turning user intent into concrete, actionable markdown plans suitable for these specific project management use cases.

Markdown plan generation requires no external dependencies or components. It operates using read-only context access to generate the plan content, ensuring a lightweight environment setup without needing additional libraries or framework installations.

Deterministic planning generates structured markdown documentation without executing code, whereas direct execution runs scripts immediately. This approach prevents unintended side effects, providing a safe, non-executable method to outline workflows and task decomposition before implementation.
