bug: ddx init does not create required .ddx directory structure

[mehdipiraee]

Bug Description

ddx init creates .ddx.yml configuration file but does not create the required .ddx/ directory structure, causing all subsequent DDx commands to fail with "not initialized" errors.

Expected .ddx/ Structure

According to the README "Local-First Architecture" section, ddx init should create:

your-project/
├── .ddx/
│   ├── prompts/        # AI prompts and instructions
│   ├── templates/      # Project and file templates
│   ├── patterns/       # Reusable code patterns
│   └── configs/        # Tool configurations
├── src/                # Your application code
└── .ddx.yml           # DDX configuration

Current Behavior

After ddx init:

• ✅ .ddx.yml is created
• ❌ .ddx/ directory is NOT created
• ❌ Required subdirectories (prompts/, templates/, patterns/, configs/) are missing

Impact

All commands that use isInitialized() fail because they check for .ddx/ directory:

func isInitialized() bool {
    _, err := os.Stat(".ddx")
    return err == nil
}

Failing commands:

• ddx update → "❌ Not in a DDx project. Run 'ddx init' first."
• ddx contribute → "❌ Not in a DDx project. Run 'ddx init' first."
• ddx rollback → "project is not initialized with DDx. Run 'ddx init' first"
• ddx diagnose → Shows "Initialization: ✗ Not initialized"

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run ddx init in a clean project directory
2. Verify .ddx.yml exists ✅
3. Check for .ddx/ directory ❌ (missing)
4. Run ddx diagnose → incorrect "not initialized" status
5. Run ddx update → fails with "not initialized" error

Root Cause

The init.go file has a comment indicating it should create the directory:

// Always create .ddx directory (required for isInitialized check)
localDDxPath := ".ddx"
if err := os.MkdirAll(localDDxPath, 0755); err != nil {

But this code path may not be executing correctly or the directory creation is failing silently.

Proposed Fix

ddx init should create the complete directory structure:

mkdir -p .ddx/prompts
mkdir -p .ddx/templates  
mkdir -p .ddx/patterns
mkdir -p .ddx/configs

Environment

• DDx version: Latest from easel/ddx repository
• OS: macOS
• Installation: Built from source

Workaround

Manual directory creation allows commands to work:

mkdir -p .ddx
ddx update  # Now works
