## Release Notes

### Patch Changes

- d3e90e4: fix: use ~/.config/gws on all platforms for consistent config path

  Previously used `dirs::config_dir()` which resolves to different paths per OS
  (e.g. ~/Library/Application Support/gws on macOS, %APPDATA%\gws on Windows),
  contradicting the documented ~/.config/gws/ path. Now uses ~/.config/gws/
  everywhere with a fallback to the legacy OS-specific path for existing installs.
