Why do I get 'no such file or directory' errors on Windows?

Windows native APIs used by Claude Code require backslashes (\) and drive letters (e.g., C:), while Git Bash often provides paths with forward slashes or MINGW formats which the tools cannot resolve.

How does this skill help with Git Bash users?

It provides a conversion algorithm to translate POSIX-style paths like /c/Users/project to the Windows-native format C:\Users\project required for file operations.

Can I use forward slashes in Claude Code tool calls on Windows?

No, even though some Windows contexts accept forward slashes, Claude Code's Edit, Write, and Read tools specifically require backslashes for reliable path resolution.

Does this skill work with network drives and UNC paths?

Yes, it includes guidelines for properly formatting UNC network paths (\\server\share) to ensure they work correctly within the Claude Code environment.

개발자 도구

Resolves file path errors in Windows and Git Bash environments by converting MINGW paths and enforcing backslash usage for Claude Code tools.

소개

This skill provides comprehensive knowledge and proactive automation for handling Windows-specific file path nuances within Claude Code. It automatically identifies and corrects common issues such as forward slash usage in Git Bash, MINGW virtual path formatting (converting /c/ to C:\), and relative path resolution errors. By ensuring that Edit, Read, and Write operations use native Windows backslashes, it eliminates frequent 'ENOENT: no such file or directory' errors that occur when working in hybrid terminal environments.
