2. Path Resolution Variables

Core Variables

• (project-root): Absolute path to the JAEGIS project root directory

• (agent-root): Absolute path to jaegis-agent directory: (project-root)/JAEGIS-METHOD/jaegis-agent/

• (personas-dir): (agent-root)/personas/

• (tasks-dir): (agent-root)/tasks/

• (checklists-dir): (agent-root)/checklists/

• (templates-dir): (agent-root)/templates/

• (data-dir): (agent-root)/data/

Variable Resolution Process

1. Project Root Detection:

   • Search for JAEGIS-METHOD directory in current working directory

   • If not found, search parent directories up to 5 levels

   • If still not found, prompt user for project root path

   • Validate by checking for jaegis-agent/agent-config.txt

2. Agent Root Validation:

   • Construct: (project-root)/JAEGIS-METHOD/jaegis-agent/

   • Verify directory exists and is accessible

   • Check for required subdirectories: personas, tasks, checklists, templates, data

   • Validate agent-config.txt exists and is readable

3. File Reference Resolution Algorithm

Reference Format Types

1. Sectioned File Reference: FILE_PREFIX#SECTION_NAME

   • Example: personas#pm, tasks#documentation-mode-workflow

2. Direct File Reference: FILENAME.md

   • Example: analyst.md, frontend-checklist.md

3. Absolute Path Reference: /full/path/to/file.md

4. Relative Path Reference: ./relative/path/file.md

Resolution Process

def resolve_resource_path(reference, context_type):
    """
    Resolve resource path with comprehensive validation
    
    Args:
        reference: String reference (e.g., "personas#pm", "analyst.md")
        context_type: Type of resource ("personas", "tasks", "checklists", "templates", "data")
    
    Returns:
        ResolvedPath object with content and metadata
    """
    
    # Step 1: Parse reference format
    if '#' in reference:
        file_prefix, section_name = reference.split('#', 1)
        resolution_type = "sectioned"
    elif reference.endswith('.md'):
        file_prefix = reference
        section_name = None
        resolution_type = "direct"
    elif reference.startswith('/'):
        resolution_type = "absolute"
    elif reference.startswith('./'):
        resolution_type = "relative"
    else:
        resolution_type = "unknown"
    
    # Step 2: Construct base path
    base_dir = get_context_directory(context_type)
    
    # Step 3: Resolve file path
    if resolution_type == "sectioned":
        file_path = f"{base_dir}/{file_prefix}.txt"
        fallback_path = f"{base_dir}/{file_prefix}.md"
    elif resolution_type == "direct":
        file_path = f"{base_dir}/{reference}"
        fallback_path = None
    elif resolution_type == "absolute":
        file_path = reference
        fallback_path = None
    elif resolution_type == "relative":
        file_path = resolve_relative_path(reference, base_dir)
        fallback_path = None
    else:
        raise PathResolutionError(f"Unknown reference format: {reference}")
    
    # Step 4: Validate and load content
    return load_with_fallback(file_path, fallback_path, section_name)

4. Fallback Mechanisms

Primary Fallback Sequence

1. Sectioned File Fallback:

   • Primary: {context_dir}/{file_prefix}.txt with section extraction

   • Fallback 1: {context_dir}/{file_prefix}.md (treat as direct file)

   • Fallback 2: {context_dir}/{section_name}.md (direct section file)

   • Fallback 3: Search all .md files for matching content

2. Direct File Fallback:

   • Primary: {context_dir}/{filename}.md

   • Fallback 1: {context_dir}/{filename}.txt

   • Fallback 2: Case-insensitive search in context directory

   • Fallback 3: Fuzzy matching with similar filenames

3. Missing Directory Fallback:

   • Create missing directories with default structure

   • Generate placeholder files with standard templates

   • Log missing resource warnings

   • Continue with degraded functionality

Error Handling Behaviors

class PathResolutionError(Exception):
    """Custom exception for path resolution failures"""
    pass

def load_with_fallback(primary_path, fallback_path, section_name):
    """Load content with comprehensive fallback handling"""

    try:
        # Attempt primary path
        if os.path.exists(primary_path):
            content = load_file_content(primary_path, section_name)
            return ResolvedPath(content, primary_path, "primary")
    except Exception as e:
        log_warning(f"Primary path failed: {primary_path}, error: {e}")

    try:
        # Attempt fallback path
        if fallback_path and os.path.exists(fallback_path):
            content = load_file_content(fallback_path, section_name)
            return ResolvedPath(content, fallback_path, "fallback")
    except Exception as e:
        log_warning(f"Fallback path failed: {fallback_path}, error: {e}")

    # Generate default content
    default_content = generate_default_content(primary_path, section_name)
    log_error(f"All paths failed, using default content for: {primary_path}")
    return ResolvedPath(default_content, None, "default")

5. Path Validation Procedures

Pre-Resolution Validation

1. Directory Structure Validation:

   def validate_jaegis_structure():
       required_dirs = [
           "(agent-root)/personas",
           "(agent-root)/tasks",
           "(agent-root)/checklists",
           "(agent-root)/templates",
           "(agent-root)/data"
       ]
   
       for dir_path in required_dirs:
           if not os.path.exists(resolve_path(dir_path)):
               create_directory_with_defaults(dir_path)
               log_warning(f"Created missing directory: {dir_path}")

2. File Accessibility Validation:

   def validate_file_access(file_path):
       if not os.path.exists(file_path):
           return ValidationResult(False, "FILE_NOT_FOUND")
       if not os.access(file_path, os.R_OK):
           return ValidationResult(False, "FILE_NOT_READABLE")
       if os.path.getsize(file_path) == 0:
           return ValidationResult(False, "FILE_EMPTY")
       return ValidationResult(True, "FILE_VALID")

Post-Resolution Validation

1. Content Validation:

   • Verify file encoding (UTF-8 expected)

   • Check for required section markers in sectioned files

   • Validate markdown syntax for .md files

   • Ensure minimum content length requirements

2. Dependency Validation:

   • Check all referenced files exist

   • Validate circular reference detection

   • Ensure required sections are present

   • Verify template variable completeness

6. Section Extraction Algorithm

Sectioned File Format

==================== START: SECTION_NAME ====================
Section content here...
Multiple lines supported...
==================== END: SECTION_NAME ====================

Extraction Process

def extract_section(file_content, section_name):
    """Extract specific section from sectioned file"""

    start_marker = f"==================== START: {section_name} ===================="
    end_marker = f"==================== END: {section_name} ===================="

    lines = file_content.split('\n')
    section_lines = []
    in_section = False

    for line in lines:
        if line.strip() == start_marker:
            in_section = True
            continue
        elif line.strip() == end_marker:
            break
        elif in_section:
            section_lines.append(line)

    if not section_lines:
        raise SectionNotFoundError(f"Section '{section_name}' not found")

    return '\n'.join(section_lines).strip()

7. Relative vs Absolute Path Handling

Absolute Path Processing

• Format: Paths starting with / (Unix) or C:\ (Windows)

• Validation: Verify path exists and is accessible

• Security: Restrict access to paths outside project boundaries

• Cross-Platform: Handle Windows/Unix path differences

Relative Path Processing

• Format: Paths starting with ./ or ../

• Base Resolution: Resolve relative to current context directory

• Normalization: Convert to absolute paths for internal processing

• Validation: Ensure resolved path stays within project boundaries

8. Performance Optimization

Caching Strategy

class PathCache:
    """Intelligent caching for resolved paths"""

    def __init__(self):
        self.cache = {}
        self.cache_stats = {"hits": 0, "misses": 0}

    def get_cached_path(self, reference, context_type):
        cache_key = f"{context_type}:{reference}"
        if cache_key in self.cache:
            self.cache_stats["hits"] += 1
            return self.cache[cache_key]

        self.cache_stats["misses"] += 1
        return None

    def cache_path(self, reference, context_type, resolved_path):
        cache_key = f"{context_type}:{reference}"
        self.cache[cache_key] = resolved_path

File System Monitoring

• Monitor file system changes for cache invalidation

• Automatic cache refresh when files are modified

• Lazy loading for improved startup performance

• Memory management for large file collections

9. Error Recovery Procedures

Graceful Degradation Levels

1. Level 1 - Full Functionality: All resources available

2. Level 2 - Reduced Functionality: Some resources missing, fallbacks used

3. Level 3 - Basic Functionality: Core resources only, minimal features

4. Level 4 - Emergency Mode: Default content only, system warnings

Recovery Actions

def handle_resource_failure(resource_type, reference, error):
    """Comprehensive error recovery handling"""

    recovery_actions = {
        "FILE_NOT_FOUND": create_default_file,
        "FILE_NOT_READABLE": fix_permissions,
        "SECTION_NOT_FOUND": create_default_section,
        "INVALID_FORMAT": repair_file_format,
        "CIRCULAR_REFERENCE": break_circular_dependency
    }

    action = recovery_actions.get(error.type, log_and_continue)
    return action(resource_type, reference, error)

10. Diagnostic and Troubleshooting

System Health Check

def run_system_health_check():
    """Comprehensive system validation"""

    health_report = {
        "directory_structure": validate_directory_structure(),
        "file_accessibility": validate_file_accessibility(),
        "content_integrity": validate_content_integrity(),
        "dependency_resolution": validate_dependencies(),
        "performance_metrics": collect_performance_metrics()
    }

    return HealthReport(health_report)
