How to permanently point to project directory?

Hi, I’ve just started using CircleCI, I already achieved to setup my custom configuration by creating a circle.yml file, everything works fine until I try to copy a file from my project, this is what I’m running
$ cp app/config/parameters.yml.dist app/config/parameters.yml

but I got this error:
Action failed: cp app/config/parameters.yml.dist app/config/parameters.yml

I thought I would be standing on my project root directory, but looks like I have something else to configure, can anyone help me on this ?

Thanks in advance

Can you give me a link to a build URL?
