Hamlet

Does Hamlet Reveal to anyone his plot/idea to kill Claudius?

I know he constantly told himself he would do it and would argue with himself because he would ink instead of acting, but did he verbally tell anyone this?

Hamlet never reveals his plot. I am skeptical that even Hamlet knew how his plot would unfold. He tells his friends (Horatio, Marcellus , Bernardo) not to divulge anything even when he puts on an "antic disposition". The rest of the play Has Hamlet muddle through a series of events that I'm not convinced he fully contrived or planned.
