[Feature Request] Project-level plan file storage path configuration

Bug Description
Feature Request: Project-level plan file storage path configuration

Currently, plan mode files are always stored in the global ~/.claude/plans/ directory.
This makes it difficult to:

  • Version control plans with the project
  • Share plans with team members
  • Keep project-specific plans organized

Request: Add a configuration option in .claude/settings.json (or settings.local.json)
to specify a project-local plan directory, e.g.:

{
"planDir": "./.claude/plans"
}

This would allow plans to be stored within the project repository,
following the same pattern as other project-level configurations.
