What's Wrong?

tmpfs quota per user limits bash tool ability to execute tasks, but the tool doesn't describes the failure and simply fails

What Should Happen?

claude should understand it fails due to disk size error and fail differently

Error Messages/Logs

Bash(make test 2>&1)
  ⎿  Error: Exit code 2

but it cannot really run the task, so it just fails

Steps to Reproduce

have tmpfs quota or full disk on the /tmp mount
