Could not extract raw app name from path: ${p}

Error message

Could not extract raw app name from path: ${p}

What it means

Thrown by pushObj when the sync path is recognized as a raw app (typeEnding raw_app) but extractResourceName cannot recover the raw app's name from the file path. This is a generic guard against malformed sync paths: the input at fault is the local path `p`, which despite ending in raw_app does not contain a parseable resource name segment, so the push cannot determine which remote raw app to target.

Solutions

1. Ensure the file/folder path follows the <name>.raw_app(.yaml) convention.
2. Fix the type suffix in the path.
