Research direction

The payload does not name files. Find where the existing {year}, {month} and {day} placeholders are replaced in the action code and add {quarter} next to them. Derive the quarter from the month as 1 for January to March through 4 for October to December. Done when a template such as {year} - Q{quarter} produces 2026 - Q4 for a date in October 2026, and the existing placeholders still work.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

We have now {year}, {day} and {month}, but for quarterly file hogging, it would be useful to include {quarter} to make directory names like {year} - Q{quarter} resulting in 2026 - Q4 for example
