Struct DaemonPaths 

pub struct DaemonPaths {
    pub base: PathBuf,
    pub home: PathBuf,
    pub work_dir: PathBuf,
    pub extra_skill_dirs: Arc<RwLock<Vec<PathBuf>>>,
}

Resolved host-path context for one daemon process.

Built once at startup by the composition root (bin/thewayd.rs) from CLI flags + environment; every consumer afterwards receives plain Path values.

Fields

base: PathBuf

The theway base dir (config.toml, skill-overrides.json, skills/, extensions/, …): $THEWAY_DIR when set, else <home>/.theway.

home: PathBuf

The user home dir (user-level .agents / .claude config roots): the --home flag when given, else $HOME.

work_dir: PathBuf

The working directory (session repo + tool execution): the --cwd flag when given, else the process cwd. Best-effort canonicalized; a failed canonicalize keeps the original value.

extra_skill_dirs: Arc<RwLock<Vec<PathBuf>>>

Extra skill directories supplied via --skills-dir (repeatable); consumed by the skill-loading node (issue #66 follow-up). Dynamically replaceable at runtime via SetSkillDirs (issue #68) — shared behind an Arc<RwLock<..>> so every Clone of this struct observes the same current value; read through Self::current_extra_skill_dirs and written through Self::set_extra_skill_dirs.

Implementations

impl DaemonPaths

pub fn from_cli( cwd: Option<PathBuf>, home: Option<PathBuf>, extra_skill_dirs: Vec<PathBuf>, ) -> Self

Resolve the daemon path context at the CLI boundary. This is the ONLY place in the daemon that reads THEWAY_DIR / HOME.

Precedence:

• base: --theway-dir overrides $THEWAY_DIR, which overrides the <home>/.theway derivation.
• home: the explicit flag overrides $HOME.
• work_dir: the explicit flag overrides the process cwd; the result is canonicalized best-effort (a failed canonicalize — e.g. the dir does not exist yet — keeps the original value so the caller can still surface a “cd into …” error).

pub fn from_cli_with_base( cwd: Option<PathBuf>, home: Option<PathBuf>, extra_skill_dirs: Vec<PathBuf>, theway_dir: Option<PathBuf>, ) -> Self

[from_cli] with an explicit base dir (thewayd --theway-dir).

pub fn skills_root(&self) -> PathBuf

The user-global skills root: <base>/skills.

pub fn with_work_dir(&self, work_dir: impl Into<PathBuf>) -> Self

Derive a cwd-scoped view while sharing mutable extra skill directories.

pub fn set_extra_skill_dirs(&self, dirs: Vec<PathBuf>)

Replace the extra skill directories at runtime (issue #68: applied by the serialized event loop when a SetSkillDirs command lands). The change is visible through every Clone of this struct.

pub fn current_extra_skill_dirs(&self) -> Vec<PathBuf>

Snapshot of the current extra skill directories (issue #68: the list may be replaced at runtime via Self::set_extra_skill_dirs).

Trait Implementations
