gurixandClaude Sonnet 4.5 01b7d5b7a9 fix: use explicit relative path for swiss-letter.tex template

The /convert-cover-letter command was using a placeholder syntax
[path-to-swiss-letter.tex] which caused inconsistent template discovery.
Claude Code would sometimes skip the template or fail to find it, resulting
in cover letters using Pandoc's default template instead of Swiss Norm formatting.

This fix replaces the placeholder with an explicit relative path
(../../../src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex) that reliably resolves
from the typical execution location (applications/pending/[job-folder]/)
to the project root and then to the template directory.

Changes:
- Updated src/.claude/commands/convert-cover-letter.md with explicit template path
- Enhanced specification with template path resolution requirement
- Added clarification about path resolution relative to execution location

Testing:
- Verified PDF generation with Swiss letter template from application folders
- Confirmed consistent template discovery across different working directories
- Validated Swiss Norm formatting (address window positioning, KOMA-Script)

MODIFIED Requirements

Requirement: Template Management

The system SHALL provide and maintain the Swiss letter LaTeX template with explicit path resolution to ensure consistent template usage across all execution contexts.

Scenario: Template availability

WHEN the /convert-cover-letter command is run
THEN the system uses the template at src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex
AND the path is specified explicitly relative to the typical execution location
AND passes it to Pandoc via the --template option with the full relative path

Scenario: Template path resolution

WHEN converting a cover letter from an application folder location (applications/pending/[job-folder]/)
THEN the template path ../../../src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex is used
AND the path goes up three levels to the project root and then to the template directory
AND the explicit path ensures consistent template discovery regardless of execution context

Scenario: Template customization

WHEN users need to modify letter styling
THEN they can edit the swiss-letter.tex template at src/.claude/templates/swiss-letter.tex
AND changes apply to all subsequent conversions
AND the template includes comments explaining customizable sections
