What problem does it solve?

Scripts often fail because they rely on relative paths that resolve from the process's current working directory, which can differ across environments such as Docker, CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, or monorepos.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provides a decision matrix that compares script‑anchored paths, environment variables, and os.chdir() strategies.
  • Lists language‑specific patterns for Python, Node.js (CommonJS and ES Modules), and Bash to anchor paths safely.
  • Offers quick rules to prevent path bugs when creating new scripts, updating existing ones, or configuring applications that run in varied contexts.

Quick Start

Ask the path‑resolution skill to display the decision matrix for Python scripts.
