Description

**Mood:** 😊
**Category:** Bugs

When working without worktrees and choosing "Local" for where to run the session, the system instructions end up saying that the current working directory is "/", rather than the directory of the project that I'm working on.

| OS | macOS 15.7.8 |

Research direction

Reproduce the session setup using no worktrees and choosing Local, then trace where the system instructions determine the current working directory. Confirm the behavior on macOS with the reported app version; done means the instructions use the project directory instead of "/".
