1//! Workspace filesystem abstraction for explicit path resolution.
2//!
3//! This module provides the [`Workspace`] trait and implementations that eliminate
4//! CWD dependencies by making all path operations explicit relative to the repository root.
5//!
6//! # Problem
7//!
8//! The codebase previously relied on `std::env::set_current_dir()` to set the
9//! process CWD to the repository root, then used relative paths (`.agent/`,
10//! `PROMPT.md`, etc.) throughout. This caused:
11//!
12//! - Test flakiness when tests ran in parallel (CWD is process-global)
13//! - Background thread bugs when CWD changed after thread started
14//! - Poor testability without complex CWD manipulation
15//!
16//! # Solution
17//!
18//! The [`Workspace`] trait defines the interface for file operations, with two implementations:
19//!
20//! - [`WorkspaceFs`] - Production implementation using the real filesystem
21//! - `MemoryWorkspace` - Test implementation with in-memory storage (available with `test-utils` feature)
22//!
23//! # Well-Known Paths
24//!
25//! This module defines constants for all Ralph artifact paths:
26//!
27//! - [`AGENT_DIR`] - `.agent/` directory
28//! - [`PLAN_MD`] - `.agent/PLAN.md`
29//! - [`ISSUES_MD`] - `.agent/ISSUES.md`
30//! - [`PROMPT_MD`] - `PROMPT.md` (repository root)
31//! - [`CHECKPOINT_JSON`] - `.agent/checkpoint.json`
32//!
33//! The [`Workspace`] trait provides convenience methods for these paths (e.g., [`Workspace::plan_md`]).
34//!
35//! # Production Example
36//!
37//! ```ignore
38//! use ralph_workflow::workspace::WorkspaceFs;
39//! use std::path::PathBuf;
40//!
41//! let ws = WorkspaceFs::new(PathBuf::from("/path/to/repo"));
42//!
43//! // Get paths to well-known files
44//! let plan = ws.plan_md(); // /path/to/repo/.agent/PLAN.md
45//! let prompt = ws.prompt_md(); // /path/to/repo/PROMPT.md
46//!
47//! // Perform file operations
48//! ws.write(Path::new(".agent/test.txt"), "content")?;
49//! let content = ws.read(Path::new(".agent/test.txt"))?;
50//! ```
51//!
52//! # Testing with MemoryWorkspace
53//!
54//! The `test-utils` feature enables `MemoryWorkspace` for integration tests:
55//!
56//! ```ignore
57//! use ralph_workflow::workspace::{MemoryWorkspace, Workspace};
58//! use std::path::Path;
59//!
60//! // Create a test workspace with pre-populated files
61//! let ws = MemoryWorkspace::new_test()
62//! .with_file("PROMPT.md", "# Task: Add logging")
63//! .with_file(".agent/PLAN.md", "1. Add log statements");
64//!
65//! // Verify file operations
66//! assert!(ws.exists(Path::new("PROMPT.md")));
67//! assert_eq!(ws.read(Path::new("PROMPT.md"))?, "# Task: Add logging");
68//!
69//! // Write and verify
70//! ws.write(Path::new(".agent/output.txt"), "result")?;
71//! assert!(ws.was_written(".agent/output.txt"));
72//! ```
