Windows backslash paths break tool titles and glob patterns

[tobias-weiss-ai-xr]

Problem

On Windows, file paths contain backslashes (C:\Users...). Several tool titles and glob patterns use these raw paths, which breaks:

1. Tool titles — backslashes are interpreted as escape characters
2. Glob patterns — backslash-prefixed paths don't match on POSIX-based pattern matching
3. Display — inconsistent path representation across the UI

Expected Behavior

All internal path handling should normalize backslashes to forward slashes, consistent with how Node.js and most tooling handle cross-platform paths.

Environment

• OS: Windows 10/11
• Shell: PowerShell / WSL

If your issue is specifically about tool titles and glob patterns (rather than session/sidebar display), it may still be a distinct bug — but please review the above to avoid duplicate effort.
