👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea ☕ this function returns the fully-resolved probe point associated with a currently running probe handler 🔥

and when I say fully-resolved, I mean it's giving the whole glow-up bestie — that includes:

• alias expansion effects 🧚
• wild-card expansion effects 🌈

so like, not the messy un-expanded version you wrote, but the real, final, resolved form. she ate and left no crumbs.

Context: the current probe point. that's the whole vibe check — you're asking about where you are right now, not somewhere else. iykyk 💜
