Path Safety

All skill and command paths are workspace-root paths.

Valid forms:

• Skills: .roo/skills/{bucket}/{skill}/SKILL.md
• Commands: .roo/commands/{command}.md

Rules:

• Load skills only from .roo/skills/...
• Never resolve paths relative to .roo/rules/ or command file location
• Invalid: any skill path under .roo/rules/
• Scratch output: .scratch/{category}/{date}/{slug}/

Before any write/edit, verify the target path exists via Glob or Read. Never reference paths not observed in this session.

User-owned generated files

Once a human has edited a generated file (PowerPoint, Word, designed HTML, PDF, or any generator output they then opened and changed), that file is the source of truth.

• Do not regenerate it from a script or template to apply a later small change.
• Patch the existing file (named slide, shape, or section only).
• Do not copy generated output over their working copy (including Downloads or Desktop).
• Full regenerate/replace only if they explicitly say to discard their edits.
