What Cf Init does

Initialize a CareerForge workspace in the current directory. Creates all required folders and starter configuration files so the agents have a place to read from and write to.

Run this once after installing the CareerForge plugin, from whichever directory you want to use as your job search workspace.

Steps

**Step 1 — Check if already initialized**

Use the Glob tool to check whether `knowledge_base/sources/` exists in the current directory.

If it exists, report:

"Your CareerForge worksp
