/**
 * @fileoverview Does a Claude conversation transcript exist on this host?
 *
 * Claude writes one `<conversation-id>.jsonl` per conversation under
 * `<config dir>/projects/<mangled cwd>/`. Two launch decisions turn on whether
 * such a file exists: `--resume <id>` needs one, and `--session-id <id>` is
 * REFUSED when one exists (`Error: Session ID ... is already in use.`).
 *
 * The project directory name is derived from the working directory, and a case
 * that has been moved or renamed leaves its transcript under the OLD name, so
 * the search is across every project directory rather than the one that matches
 * the pane's cwd today.
 *
 * ⚠️ Existence is the whole question here, with no size floor. The create route
 * additionally requires ~4 KB before it will resume, which is a "is this
 * conversation worth resuming" judgement; for a relaunch the question is the
 * opposite one — a one-line transcript still makes `--session-id` collide.
 *
 * ⚠️ A false answer is not the conservative one. Skipping a resume leaves the
 * relaunch on `--session-id <id>`, which is safe only when no transcript backs
 * that id either, so a lookup that misses the real config dir turns a
 * recoverable pane into the collision this module exists to prevent.
 *
 * @dependencies none
 * @consumedby session (relaunch resume pinning)
 *
 * @module utils/claude-transcript

 * environment through tmux, so on an install that exports `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`
