Development record
The bare board reports its directory as an absolute path in machine output: abcd --json carries dir as filepath.Abs of the working directory (core.Status, internal/core/core.go, embedded in the board envelope by internal/surface/cli/cli.go), so a checkout under the home names the developer in --json, against the iss-81 rule the site and lifeboat verbs are held to. The text board prints the same field on its first line.

Grounds
- pursued: a checkout under HOME reports dir as ~/src/repo while IsGitRepo is still read from the real directory (TestStatusNamesTheDirectoryWithoutTheHome); an absolute dir in abcd --json would show it wrong

- iss-81Machine output surfaces absolute local paths OUTSIDE the cli.Run error-identity scrub added in iss-76. Two instances found in the iss-76 security re-review: (1) 'memory ingest <abs-path>' — materialFromLocal EvalSymlinks-resolves the user's source argument and embeds the resolved absolute path in a custom IngestError (internal/core/memory/ingest.go:655,658,663,667). It lies outside cwd/home, so scrubPaths' root-redaction and PathError base-name reduction both miss it. Low severity: it is the user's own argument and carries no developer identity for out-of-home paths (a ~/x argument still redacts to ~/x). (2) STRONGER, separate surface: the capture SUCCESS envelope emits an absolute 'path' field, e.g. {"path":"<home>/.abcd/work/issues/open/iss-N-...md"} — a full home/cwd-rooted path emitted unbidden on the SUCCESS path, which the error-only scrubPaths never sees. Detector (per unrecognized-input-never-writes / no-absolute-paths-in-machine-output): extend the per-verb --json table to assert no absolute path in BOTH the success and error envelopes for verbs echoing store/source paths; fix by rendering repo-relative or base-name paths at those sites. Acceptance corpus: the ingest error sites and the capture success 'path' field above.
