could not find file: {}

Error message

could not find file: {}

What it means

Returned when komorebic is asked to read a file path that does not exist on disk (the formatting string receives the offending path). It is a straightforward existence check on user-supplied file input (e.g. a config file passed to a subcommand); the operation cannot proceed without the file.
