The rule

An AI model must always show the full file paths for all files it changes.

This applies after any update that changes one or more files. The user needs to see what files were affected.

An AI model must show full file paths after every major update. A major update is any change that modifies one or more files. The AI model should list the absolute path for each file. This helps the user find the changed files easily.

A developer asks an AI model to update a website. The AI model changes an HTML file and a Python file. After making the changes, the AI model lists the full paths for both files. This way, the developer knows exactly where to find the updated files.
