A call to `/skills/` may fail while `/skills` succeeds.\n\n## Implementation\nWhenever calling `list_files`, `read_file`, or checking directory existence:\n1. Capture the intended path.\n2. If the path ends with `/` and is not the root `/`, remove the trailing slash.\n3. Pass the sanitized path to the tool.\n\n## Example\n- **Input:** `/home/user/docs/` $\\rightarrow$ **Output:** `/home/user/docs`\n- **Input:** `/skills/` $\\rightarrow$ **Output:** `/skills`\n- **Input:** `/` $\\rightarrow$ **Output:** `/`\n"
