Conversation
The system prompt had conflicting guidance: the Skills section told the agent to read SKILL.md at the provided location path, while the Workspace section said 'do not guess absolute paths'. Weaker models (e.g. MiniMax-M2.7) would try to reconcile both instructions by stripping the absolute prefix and converting to a relative path, causing 'file not found' errors. This change: - Adds '(use the EXACT absolute path provided)' to skill reading instructions in both inline and search modes - Clarifies workspace guidance: relative paths for user files, exact absolute paths for skills - Updates skill_search result instruction with the same emphasis

Problem
The system prompt contains conflicting guidance that causes weaker models to mangle skill file paths:
Models like MiniMax-M2.7 try to reconcile both instructions by stripping the absolute prefix from the skill path (e.g.
/app/data/skills-store/gpt-image-2-pro-max/1/SKILL.md→skills/gpt-image-2-pro-max-main/SKILL.md), causingfile not founderrors.Fix
Resolves the contradiction by clarifying the boundary:
(use the EXACT absolute path provided)Files Changed
internal/agent/systemprompt.go— 3 string changes in prompt guidanceinternal/tools/skill_search.go— 1 string change in search result instructionImpact
Minimal prompt size increase (~30 tokens). Helps weaker models follow skill paths correctly without affecting stronger models.
