File Operations
When writing files on Windows:
- Always use full absolute paths: C:\Users<you>\Desktop\filename.ext
- For reports: use .md extension for markdown, .txt for plain text
- Verify file was written with fs.existsSync after write
- For research reports: include sections — Overview, Findings, Comparison, Verdict
- Never write empty files — ensure content is populated before file_write step
- File names: use_underscores_not_spaces.md
