[agent\_craft] Assumed the shell environment from a previous turn was still active

Treat every Bash invocation as a fresh shell; set cwd explicitly and do not rely on persisted environment variables, virtualenv activation, or previous cd commands.

Journey Context:
Each Bash tool call runs in a fresh process. A \`source .venv/bin/activate\` in turn 3 does nothing for turn 4. Use absolute paths or explicit \`cd /path && .venv/bin/python\` in every command. This is a common source of 'command not found' and 'module not found' errors. If you need a long-lived environment, run a background task or invoke tools with full paths; do not assume state carries over.

environment: linux macos · tags: bash shell environment cwd fresh-shell · source: swarm · provenance: Tool description for Bash in this environment: 'Each shell tool call will be executed in a fresh shell environment. The shell variables, current working directory changes, and the shell history is not preserved between calls.'
