Current evaluation

instance_bashrc prints 'parts' instead of the real part name when cd-ing into a part build dir; caused by ${PWD#$"HOME"} quoting bug, still present at HEAD, unlabelled and unattended.

Suggested action: needs triage

Reason: The bug is confirmed still live at pinned HEAD: craft_application/misc/instance_bashrc line 19 uses `part_name=$(echo "${PWD#$"HOME"}" | cut -d "/" -f 3)`, where $"HOME" expands to the literal string HOME (not /root), so the prefix strip never matches and `cut -f 3` of /root/parts/digikam/build yields exactly the reported 'parts'. The root cause is pinpointed and the environment itself is sourced correctly, so impact is cosmetic-only. However, the issue has zero labels, zero comments and no maintainer response, so it shows no sign of having been categorised — needs_triage is the appropriate state pending a maintainer decision on whether a cosmetic shell-prompt message is worth fixing.
