@@ -11,3 +11,8 @@ Shared filesystem path helpers for DeepSeek Harness user data.
 `expandHomePath()` expands `~`, `~/...`, and Windows-style `~\...` prefixes against the operating-system home directory. It leaves non-tilde paths and `~user/...` untouched.
 
 This package is intentionally small and harness-dep-free so product packages can share user-data path conventions without depending on one another.
+
+## Known Limitations and Deferred Work
+
+- **Expansion is deliberately narrow** — only bare `~`, `~/...`, and `~\...` use the current operating-system home; named-user forms such as `~alice/...`, environment variables, and shell expressions remain unchanged.
+- **Helpers do not touch the filesystem** — callers still own directory creation, existence checks, permissions, and trust policy for the resulting path.
