fix: add runtime deps to root for global install#12
Merged
Conversation
npm install -g does not process workspace dependencies — only root dependencies are installed. Moved backend (express, better-sqlite3, cors, glob) and frontend (next, react, react-dom) runtime deps to the root package.json so they're available when installed globally.

The CLI launcher now sets CLAWUI_DB_DIR to ~/.clawui (absolute path) so the backend writes data to the user's home directory instead of inside the npm global modules folder. config.ts resolves the path correctly whether relative (dev) or absolute (global install).
