What problem are you trying to solve?
Several files contained hardcoded
/Users/jessepaths (#858). These paths break for any user on a different system and leak personal directory structure into the codebase.What does this PR change?
Replaces all hardcoded
/Users/jessepaths with generic placeholders (e.g.~/project,<project-root>) indocs/testing.md,skills/systematic-debugging/CREATION-LOG.md, andskills/systematic-debugging/root-cause-tracing.md.Is this change appropriate for the core library?
Yes — hardcoded user paths in shared docs/skills are a bug that affects all users.
What alternatives did you consider?
$HOMEenvironment variable references — less readable in documentation context.Does this PR contain multiple unrelated changes?
No. All changes address the same issue: replacing hardcoded
/Users/jessepaths with generic placeholders.Existing PRs
