Add centralized path resolution module (autocoder_paths.py) that
consolidates all autocoder-generated file paths behind a dual-path
strategy: check .autocoder/X first, fall back to root-level X for
backward compatibility, default to .autocoder/X for new projects.
Key changes:
- New autocoder_paths.py with dual-path resolution for features.db,
assistant.db, lock files, settings, prompts dir, and progress cache
- migrate_project_layout() safely moves old-layout projects to new
layout with SQLite WAL flush and integrity verification
- Updated 22 files to delegate path construction to autocoder_paths
- Reset/delete logic cleans both old and new file locations
- Orphan lock cleanup checks both locations per project
- Migration called automatically at agent start in autonomous_agent_demo.py
- Updated markdown commands/skills to reference .autocoder/prompts/
- CLAUDE.md documentation updated with new project structure
Files at project root that remain unchanged:
- CLAUDE.md (Claude SDK reads from cwd via setting_sources=["project"])
- app_spec.txt root copy (agent templates reference it via cat)

Add multiple escape hatches to prevent users from getting stuck during
spec creation when the WebSocket completion signal fails.
Changes:
- Add "Exit to Project" button always visible in chat header
- Add /exit command detection to immediately exit to project
- Add backend GET /api/spec/status/{project} endpoint to poll status file
- Add getSpecStatus() API function in frontend
- Add status file polling (every 3s) in useSpecChat hook
- Update create-spec.md with status file write instructions
How it works:
1. Happy path: Claude writes .spec_status.json as final step, UI polls
and detects completion, shows "Continue to Project" button
2. Escape hatch: User can always click "Exit to Project" or type /exit
to instantly select the project and close modal, then manually start
the agent from the main UI
This ensures users always have a way forward even if the WebSocket
completion detection fails due to tool call tracking issues.

This major update replaces the fixed `generations/` directory with support
for storing projects in any directory on the filesystem. Projects are now
tracked via a cross-platform registry system.
## New Features
### Project Registry (`registry.py`)
- Cross-platform registry storing project name-to-path mappings
- Platform-specific config locations:
- Windows: %APPDATA%\autonomous-coder\projects.json
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/autonomous-coder/projects.json
- Linux: ~/.config/autonomous-coder/projects.json
- POSIX path format for cross-platform compatibility
- File locking for concurrent access safety (fcntl/msvcrt)
- Atomic writes via temp file + rename to prevent corruption
- Fixed Windows file locking issue with tempfile.mkstemp()
### Filesystem Browser API (`server/routers/filesystem.py`)
- REST endpoints for browsing directories server-side
- Cross-platform support with blocked system paths:
- Windows: C:\Windows, Program Files, ProgramData, etc.
- macOS: /System, /Library, /private, etc.
- Linux: /etc, /var, /usr, /bin, etc.
- Universal blocked paths: .ssh, .aws, .gnupg, .docker, etc.
- Hidden file detection (Unix dot-prefix + Windows attributes)
- UNC path blocking for security
- Windows drive enumeration via ctypes
- Directory creation with validation
- Added `has_children` field to DirectoryEntry schema
### UI Folder Browser (`ui/src/components/FolderBrowser.tsx`)
- React component for selecting project directories
- Breadcrumb navigation with clickable segments
- Windows drive selector
- New folder creation inline
- Fixed text visibility with explicit color values
## Updated Components
### Server Routers
- `projects.py`: Uses registry instead of fixed generations/ directory
- `agent.py`: Uses registry for project path lookups
- `features.py`: Uses registry for database path resolution
- `spec_creation.py`: Uses registry for WebSocket project resolution
### Process Manager (`server/services/process_manager.py`)
- Fixed sandbox issue: subprocess now uses project_dir as cwd
- This allows the Claude SDK sandbox to access external project directories
### Schemas (`server/schemas.py`)
- Added `has_children` to DirectoryEntry
- Added `in_progress` to ProjectStats
- Added path field to ProjectSummary and ProjectDetail
### UI Components
- `NewProjectModal.tsx`: Multi-step wizard with folder selection
- Added clarifying text about subfolder creation
- Fixed text color visibility issues
### API Client (`ui/src/lib/api.ts`)
- Added filesystem API functions (listDirectory, createDirectory)
- Fixed Windows path splitting for directory creation
### Documentation
- Updated CLAUDE.md with registry system details
- Updated command examples for absolute paths
## Security Improvements
- Blocked `.` and `..` in directory names to prevent traversal
- Added path blocking check in project creation
- UNC path blocking throughout filesystem API
