…ux (lessweb#226) When XDG_CONFIG_HOME/XDG_DATA_HOME are set on Linux, settings.json lives in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/deepcode and data (projects, logs, machine-id, skills, update state, AGENTS.md) in $XDG_DATA_HOME/deepcode. Falls back to ~/.deepcode otherwise, so existing setups are unaffected. (cherry picked from commit ada7144231c26a7b1fdac5beeba0543d40b581b1)

Summary
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/$XDG_DATA_HOMEare set:$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/deepcode(settings.json)$XDG_DATA_HOME/deepcode(projects, logs, machine-id, skills, update state, userAGENTS.md)~/.deepcode— existing setups are unaffected.Why
Issue #226: Linux users who follow the XDG spec expect config in
~/.configand data in~/.local/share, not a hidden~/.deepcodedirectory. This also makes config/data portable and respects common backup/cleanup tooling.Changes
packages/core/src/settings.ts: addgetUserConfigDir()/getUserDataDir()and routegetUserSettingsPath()through the config dir.packages/core/src/index.ts: export the new helpers.getUserDataDir():session.ts(projects, user skills, user AGENTS.md),openai-client.ts(machine-id),error-logger.ts/debug-logger.ts(logs),cli.tsx(sessions-index),update-check.ts(state).packages/vscode-ide-companion/src/extension.ts: usegetUserSettingsPath().packages/core/src/tests/settings-and-notify.test.ts: test for XDG env handling + fallback.Validation
