LGTM, thanks @jace-roell!

LGTM! 😋

I don't think we have seen a z/OSMf endpoint that requires a trailing / yet, so this should be fine.

Quick test script: (click here) ⬇️

Source: test script via https://playcode.io/python-playground

import posixpath

# Sample paths to test
test_paths = [
    "foo//bar/",
    "foo/./bar",
    "foo/../bar",
    "../foo/bar",
    "/../foo/bar",
    "foo/bar/../../baz",
    "///foo/bar",
    "",
]

print(f"{'Original Path':<25} | {'Normalized Path':<20}")
print("-" * 50)

for path in test_paths:
    # os.path.normpath uses posixpath mechanics on POSIX systems (Linux/Mac)
    # Using os.path.posixpath directly ensures POSIX behavior on any OS
    normalized = posixpath.normpath(path)
    print(f"{repr(path):<25} | {repr(normalized):<20}")
