+E2E Test for Issue #493: pdd update --output crashes with NameError when
+code file is in a subdirectory.
+
+This test exercises the full update_main() → resolve_prompt_code_pair() path
+that a user triggers via `pdd update <code_file> --output <path>`. It mocks
+only the LLM call (update_prompt) and agent availability at the system boundary,
+but exercises all real path resolution logic including .pddrc context detection,
+git repo discovery, and subdirectory structure preservation.
+
+Bug: resolve_prompt_code_pair() defines context_config only in the else branch
+(when --output is NOT provided) but references it unconditionally when computing
+code_root. When --output IS provided and the code file is in a subdirectory
+(rel_dir != "."), this causes an UnboundLocalError.
