gollark: If there is one it should be on the WikI.
gollark: Is there a diagram of CC startup anywhere? I've accidentally confused myself to pieces.

gollark: Basically, there was an issue in the PotatOS filesystem sandbox which resulted in paths outside the allowed area being... somehow... redirected to either themselves or a directory containing themselves or something like that.
