* fix: resolve symlinks when looking up Claude session files When a project is added via a symlink path (e.g. ~/obsidian pointing to an iCloud Drive vault), Deckard stores the literal symlink path while Claude Code CLI resolves symlinks before creating session directories. This path mismatch causes ContextMonitor and QuotaMonitor to miss the JSONL session files, so model/context info is absent from the sidebar. Resolve symlinks using NSString.resolvingSymlinksInPath at the three lookup sites before encoding the project path to a directory name. Fixes #45 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: extract shared helper and fix missed session-resume path Add String.claudeProjectDirName that resolves symlinks before encoding the project path, replacing the inline resolve+encode at all 4 call sites. Also fixes the missed fourth site in DeckardWindowController where session resume would silently fail for symlinked projects.
