It's not a dumb question per se but it does fail to understand the issue. It's that there's 20 coding agents yet only 1 of them needs this solving. Imagine if all of them needed this. It's like IE6, or Lightning connectors. At least for that last one there's an argument that they performed better than USB-C. For the Anthropic people reading this - take note that both IE and Lightning are now dead and their competitors that followed the standards are thriving.
I understand the issue is that Anthropic is not adhering to a standard. I was simply asking whether it's possible to solve the problem created by Anthropic in the way I was asking.
The better way to solve it is a symlink. The way you're suggesting works too, but should be done using an @ reference, which is auto-followed by Claude. This is the most common way on Windows.
