ConfigLoader structDir path issue (2025-12-17 07:34Z)

User

This should be capable of running anywhere and turning the structDir into wherever the script was run from.

PS R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure> .\ConfigLoader.ps1 Paste the project path to deploy in: "C:\Users\Nathan\Desktop\2025-12-17 Little Reindeer" Write-Error: Configured structDir not found: A:\1 Amazon_Active_Projects\3 ProjectStructure PS R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure>


Agent (model default, mode Agent)


Examining ConfigLoader.ps1 to understand its current behavior.


Tool use: **read_file_v2** • Read file: R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure\ConfigLoader.ps1

Tool use: **read_file_v2** • Read file: R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure\config.json


The script reads structDir from config.json, which has a hardcoded path that doesn't exist. Updating it to always use the script's directory as structDir when run directly, regardless of the config.


Tool use: **read_file_v2** • Read file: R:\Creative\artsy\maya\0 ProjectStructure\ConfigLoader.ps1


Updating Get-StructDirectory to always use the script's directory when run directly, ignoring the config value for portability.


Tool use: **edit_file_v2**

Additional data:

  "codeblockId": "10c3c2bd-ef53-4f35-ba2d-93ee7c232817"
}

Status: completed



Updated Get-StructDirectory to always use the script's directory when run directly, ignoring the config value. This makes the script portable—you can run it from any location and it will use its own directory as structDir.

When dot-sourced (imported by other scripts), it still respects the config value for backward compatibility.

Checking for linter errors:


Tool use: **read_lints**

Parameters:

{
  "paths": [
    "R:\\Creative\\artsy\\maya\\0 ProjectStructure\\ConfigLoader.ps1"
  ]
}

Result:

{
  "linterErrorsByFile": [
    {
      "relativeWorkspacePath": "R:\\Creative\\artsy\\maya\\0 ProjectStructure\\ConfigLoader.ps1"
    }
  ]
}

Status: completed



Change complete. The script now uses its own directory as structDir when run directly, regardless of the config value. You can run it from any location and it will work correctly.

Let's have it change the structDir value in config.json

Updating the script to set structDir in config.json to the script's directory when run directly.

Adding a function to update config.json and calling it when the script runs directly:
