Bug Description
I keep seeing: "ls: cannot access 'glob': No such file or directory" in Bash commands like: 

● Bash(ls -la /home/matthew/dev/ce/infra/bin/lib/cefs/*.py | head -20)
  ⎿  ls: cannot access 'glob': No such file or directory
  ⎿  Interrupted by user

(I interrupted claude to file this issue. But I've seen it a bunch of times)

  • Terminal: gnome-terminal

Duplicate of #5664 though this affects more than just that directory.

mattgodbolt · 1 year ago

@bcherny I'm not sure what happened but the issue #5664 that is now locked (but reopened) I'd like to +1 to. But it's locked. So I'm reopening this.

solace-rcampbell · 1 year ago

It seems that #5664 was closed as a duplicate of #5811, but #5811 was closed as a duplicate of #5644!

That's an interesting way of avoiding a problem.

Anyway, there's a MUCH easier repo of this issue.

! echo * | cat
  ⎿  glob

If you just type ! and then echo * | cat, it will output the word glob instead of passing the * to bash to expand.

If you run ! bash -c "echo * | cat" instead, the * gets properly expanded. You can see that this is somehow connected to running directly inside claude.

This causes claude to struggle to find files in a codebase, and increases the cost for people to use per-token billing (because it causes more model requests).
