TL.db syncs between machines whose absolute paths differ, so a single TTFolderPath column cannot be correct on both at once -- the stored paths are only trustworthy on the machine that wrote them. That made --updatepaths a mandatory prelude to every --output rather than the one-time setup step it looks like. --output now refreshes the column from the TumblThree Index metadata before exporting. The root comes from the first non-flag argument, else appSettings:PathTTRoot. With no root available it says so and exports whatever TL.db already holds; a root whose Index folder is missing is a hard stop, since silently exporting stale paths is the failure this change exists to prevent. --norefresh skips the refresh for a pure export. The scan is extracted from UpdateBlogPathsRunner.Run into a reusable Scan() that returns counts instead of only printing them, so --updatepaths keeps its per-file detail while --output prints a single summary line rather than a few hundred lines ahead of the export. Verified against a throwaway database: a stale cross-machine path is repaired and the export lands in the correct local folder; no configured root warns and continues (exit 0); a missing Index folder stops (exit 1); --norefresh skips the refresh and exports (exit 0).
