Description

## Bug Description

When using a `cwd_provider`, buffer paths sent to Claude Code are relative to Neovim's CWD instead of the directory that Claude is running in.

## To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Use a plugin configuration similar to
```
require("claudecode").setup({
terminal = {
cwd_provider = function(ctx)
-- Prefer repo root; fallback to file's directory
local cwd = require("claudecode.cwd").git_root(ctx.file_dir or ctx.cwd) or ctx.file_dir or ctx.cwd
return cwd
end,
},
})
```

Using this repository

1. `cd plugin`
2. `nvim claudecode.lua`
3. Run `ClaudeCodeOpen`
4. Run `ClaudeCodeAdd %` or make a visual selection and run `ClaudeCodeSend`

Note that the path sent is `claudecode.lua` but since Claude Code is running from the git root, it should be `plugin/claudecode.lua` for Claude to properly resolve it.

Oddly, sometimes, the first time I send the path it works properly but then after that the bug occurs. Not sure why but it might be linked to whether the path is calculated before or after Claude is finished opening?

## Expected Behavior

The buffer path sent to Claude is relative to Claude's CWD from the `cwd_provider` instead of relative to Neovim's CWD.

## Environment

- Neovim version: 0.11.4
- Claude Code CLI version: 2.0.26
- OS: MacOS 26.0
- Plugin version: latest git
