## Description

Answer user questions about QwenPaw installation and configuration: first locate and read local documentation, then distill the answer; if local information is insufficient, fall back to the official website documentation.

# QwenPaw Installation and Configuration Q&A Guide

Use this skill when the user asks about **QwenPaw installation, initialization, environment configuration, dependency requirements, or common configuration options**.

Core principles:

- Check local documentation first, then answer
- Base answers on what has actually been read, do not speculate
- Answer in the same language the user used to ask

## Standard Flow

### Step 1: Locate the Documentation Directory

**Use built-in path resolution (works for all install methods)**

```bash
DOCS_DIR=$(python3 -c "from qwenpaw.constant import DOCS_DIR; print(DOCS_DIR or '')" 2>/dev/null)
```

If the above returns a non-empty path and the directory exists, use it directly and skip to Step 2.

If it fails (e.g., older version without DOCS_DIR), fall back in the following order:

**Check for documentation directory in memory**

First, check whether there is a documentation directory in memory. If found, use it directly; otherwise, proceed to the next step.

```bash
# Get the documentation directory from memory
DOCS_DIR=$(find ~/.qwenpaw/memory/ -type d -name "docs")
```

If there is no documentation directory in memory, continue with the following logic.

**Check the documentation directory in the project source code**

Run the following script logic to obtain the variable $QWENPAW_ROOT:

```bash
# Get the absolute path of the binary
QWENPAW_PATH=$(which qwenpaw 2>/dev/null || whereis qwenpaw | awk '{print $2}')

# Logical deduction: if the path contains .qwenpaw/bin/qwenpaw, the root is three levels up
# Example: /path/to/QwenPaw/.qwenpaw/bin/qwenpaw -> /path/to/QwenPaw
if [[ "$QWENPAW_PATH" == *".qwenpaw/bin/qwenpaw" ]]; then
    QWENPAW_ROOT=$(echo "$QWENPAW_PATH" | sed 's/\/\.qwenpaw\/bin\/qwenpaw//')
else
    # Fallback: try to get the parent of the parent directory
    QWENPAW_ROOT=$(dirname $(dirname "$QWENPAW_PATH") 2>/dev/null || echo ".")
fi

echo "Detected QwenPaw Root: $QWENPAW_ROOT"
```
