what exactly does my Mojo code need to do to respond to the AJAX post properly?

use post with a suitable /path as examples in Mojolicious::Lite +and jQuery +AJAX + Mojo::Template and return the content

What is the strategy I need to implement to make the appropriate post response from my server?

Read the basic introductory tutorial on Mojo ... or view the slideshow/video ... and run the examples and play with them (or make them run) ... save each change to a different file ... review as necessary ... repeat as necessary ... and then you're done :)

Then you can use param like Mojolicious::Lite +and jQuery +AJAX + Mojo::Template and return some content

Old CGI Connector

Looks like its missing the following (needs read use CGI or die; Ovids CGI Course/Ovid's CGI Course )

use CGI();
my $q = CGI->new ;
my $dir = $q->param('dir');
