3## Plugin Paths
4 
5Entity definitions and templates are in the plugin directory, not in the vault root.
6Use the "Base directory for this skill" provided at invocation to resolve paths:
7 
8- Entity definitions: `<base_dir>/../../entities/`
9- Templates: `<base_dir>/../../templates/{type}/_template.md`
10- Plugin CLAUDE.md: `<base_dir>/../../CLAUDE.md` (already injected automatically into context)
11 
12Where `<base_dir>` is the path provided in "Base directory for this skill".

16## Vault Resolution
17 
18Resolve which vault to operate on. This skill can be invoked from any directory.
19 
20**Step 1 — Parse `--vault` flag:**
21Check if the input arguments include `--vault <name>`. If found, extract the vault name and remove it from the arguments before further parsing.
22 
23**Step 2 — Resolve vault path:**
24 
251. **If `--vault <name>` was provided:**
26   Read the vault registry at `<base_dir>/../../vaults.json`. Find the entry matching the name.
27   If not found: error — "Vault `<name>` is not registered. Run `/bedrock:vaults` to see available vaults."
28   If found: set `VAULT_PATH` to the entry's `path` value.
29 
302. **If no `--vault` flag — CWD detection:**
31   Read `<base_dir>/../../vaults.json`. Check if the current working directory is inside any registered vault path
32   (CWD starts with a registered vault's absolute path). If multiple match, use the longest path (most specific).
33   If found: set `VAULT_PATH` to the matching vault's `path`.
