Short addresses for every learner surface
Your learner home lives at /home, with /paths, /browse, /skills and /assess-skills as top-level addresses - and permanent redirects from every older address.
Signing in now lands you directly on your learning home at /home - the same address that checks your onboarding also shows your dashboard, with no extra hop. Every other learner surface has its own short address: /paths for your path collection, /browse for exploring skills and interests, /skills for the skill graph, and /assess-skills for starting a skill assessment - no more query-string views or dashboard-nested routes.
Nothing you saved breaks. /dashboard, /dashboard/skills, /dashboard/paths, /pathways, /paths?view=browse and /paths/new?mode=assessment all permanently redirect to their new homes with tabs and goals intact, and signed-out visits return you to the same place after signing in. Building a path (/paths/new) and studying one (/paths/…) keep their existing routes.
