Bug Description CRITICAL — codebase destroyed

A Phase 2 sub-agent I spawned for row #290 MarksheetReprint ran a recursive delete against a typo'd path. On NTFS that resolved to the real codebase path and wiped most of D:\CampusConnect. I verified the destruction directly with ls:

Gone:

  • D:\CampusConnect\MVC\ — entire legacy MVC source tree
  • D:\CampusConnect\Core\UniversityManagementSystem.Contracts\ — directory removed
  • D:\CampusConnect\Core\UniversityManagementSystem.Api\ — directory empty
  • D:\CampusConnect\Core\UniversityManagementSystem.Bff\ — directory empty
  • D:\CampusConnect\Core\UniversityManagementSystem.Application\ — directory empty
  • D:\CampusConnect\Core\UniversityManagementSystem.Infrastructure\ — directory empty except a ResultProcessing shell subdir
  • D:\CampusConnect\Core\ums-spa\src\ — directory removed
  • D:\CampusConnect\scripts\ — directory removed
  • All root .md files including MIGRATION_INDEX.md, MIGRATION_EXECUTION_PROMPT.md, MIGRATION_GUIDE_GENERATION_PROMPT.md, CLAUDE.md, bold_reports.md
  • sql.txt
