Developer 967cec4331 fix(skill): use profile-isolated path for plan storage
Plan skill was writing to .hermes/plans/ relative to the backend
workspace, causing all profiles to share the same plans directory.

Now writes to ~/.hermes/plans/ which is expanded against the
subprocess HOME ({HERMES_HOME}/home/), ensuring each profile has
its own isolated plans directory.

Fixes #12533.

# 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 under the profile's `~/.hermes/plans/` directory.
## 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`
This path is expanded against the subprocess HOME (`{HERMES_HOME}/home/`), ensuring each profile has its own isolated plans directory. Falls back to `os.path.expanduser()` when the subprocess home directory does not exist.
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.
