### Custom Plan Directory and Policies
By default, planning artifacts are stored in a managed temporary directory
outside your project: `~/.gemini/tmp/<project>/<session-id>/plans/`.
You can configure a custom directory for plans in your `settings.json`. For
example, to store plans in a `.gemini/plans` directory within your project:
```json
{
"general": {
"plan": {
"directory": ".gemini/plans"
}
}
}
```
To maintain the safety of Plan Mode, user-configured paths for the plans
directory are restricted to the project root. This ensures that custom planning
locations defined within a project's workspace cannot be used to escape and
overwrite sensitive files elsewhere. Any user-configured directory must reside
within the project boundary.
Because Plan Mode is read-only by default, using a custom directory requires
updating your [Policy Engine] configurations to allow `write_file` and `replace`
in that specific location. For example, to allow writing to the `.gemini/plans`
directory within your project, create a policy file at
`~/.gemini/policies/plan-custom-directory.toml`:
```toml
[[rule]]
toolName = ["write_file", "replace"]
decision = "allow"
priority = 100
modes = ["plan"]
# Adjust the pattern to match your custom directory.
# This example matches any .md file in a .gemini/plans directory within the project.
argsPattern = "\"file_path\":\".*\\\\.gemini/plans/.*\\\\.md\""
```
