proposal: resolve relative CLI paths to absolute before sending to server

[ZaynJarvis]

Problem

When running ov add-skill ./my-skill or ov add-resource ./my-file from any directory other than the server's working directory, the command fails because relative paths are sent as-is to the server, which resolves them relative to its own CWD.

add-skill error:

Error: API error: SKILL.md must have YAML frontmatter

(Server can't find the path, falls through to treating the string as raw content)

add-resource error:

FileNotFoundError: Path ./my-file does not exist

Root Cause

Both the Python CLI (openviking_cli) and Rust CLI (ov) send the raw path string directly to the server via HTTP. The server resolves it using Python's pathlib.Path() relative to its own working directory, not the caller's CWD.

Fix

Resolve any path that exists on the local filesystem to its absolute path before sending to the server. URLs and raw content strings are passed through unchanged.

Files changed

File	Commands fixed
openviking_cli/cli/commands/resources.py	add-resource, add-skill
openviking_cli/cli/commands/pack.py	export, import
crates/ov_cli/src/main.rs	add-resource, add-skill, export, import

Test

# Previously failed from any dir other than server root
cd /some/other/directory
ov add-skill ./path/to/my-skill      # now works
ov add-resource ./path/to/my-file    # now works
ov import ./my-export.ovpack viking://resources/target  # now works
