sct paths

Print the directories and files sct uses by default, and show exactly which path-resolution rule won on this machine.

When to use: diagnosing "where does sct look for the database / embeddings / config?", or confirming which artefact a bare command (no --db) will pick up. The full resolution rules are in Path resolution; this command shows the result of applying them here and now.

Usage

sct paths

Takes no arguments.

Example

sct paths

data home:    ~/.local/share/sct          XDG_DATA_HOME
config home:  ~/.config/sct                XDG_CONFIG_HOME
config file:  ~/.config/sct/config.toml    (none)

database:     ./snomed.db                  current directory
embeddings:   ~/.local/share/sct/data/snomed-embeddings.arrow   data home, canonical name

Each row shows the resolved path and, on the right, which rule in the discovery chain produced it (explicit env var → current directory → config file → data-home canonical name → newest matching file). A ─ with "not found" means no artefact of that kind was discovered - pass an explicit --db / --embeddings, or build one.
