create_directory

Create or validate directories with absolute paths, including nested structures, ensuring reliable folder management within permitted locations.

Instructions

Create a new directory or ensure a directory exists. Can create multiple nested directories in one operation. Only works within allowed directories. IMPORTANT: Always use absolute paths for reliability. Paths are automatically normalized regardless of slash direction. Relative paths may fail as they depend on the current working directory. Tilde paths (~/...) might not work in all contexts. Unless the user explicitly asks for relative paths, use absolute paths. This command can be referenced as "DC: ..." or "use Desktop Commander to ..." in your instructions.
