[Claude Code background sessions] 'Couldn't reach the background service (spawn background service: EUNKNOWN: unknown error, uv_spawn)' on Windows (AppLocker/Group Policy) or 'EACCES: permission deni…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Windows refuses to spawn the program (code with no standard name → EUNKNOWN); during reinstall the binary is briefly unexecutable. Fix status: released_fix (fixed in v2.1.212 (PowerShell 7 / direct start fallback)) Workaround (not a fix):

[Jupyter kernels in sandboxes] '<python>: No module named ipykernel_launcher' then 'RuntimeError: Kernel died before replying to kernel_info' — kernelspec's `python` resolved to an interpreter withou…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): manager.format_kernel_cmd replaces bare 'python'/'pythonX'/'pythonX.Y' with sys.executable; ipykernel's make_ipkernel_cmd builds '<executable> -m ipykernel_launcher -f {connection_file}'; wait_for_ready raises 'Kernel died before replying to

[Aider] 'Unable to read git repository, it may be corrupt?' / 'Failed to read the Git repository ... path encoded in a format different from the expected encoding'

Cause (Documented platform behavior): sanity_check_repo catches git/Unicode errors while listing tracked files and aborts; encoding mismatch is called out as the likely cause for UnicodeDecodeError. Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Locale remedy is inferred from the

[nvm] 'nvm is not compatible with the "PREFIX" environment variable' / '.npmrc has a `globalconfig` and/or a `prefix` setting, which are incompatible with nvm.' — npm prefix config (often set for sud…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): nvm manages per-version global prefixes; an external npm prefix conflicts. Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Source/doc-derived; not reproduced. Other error fragments: - has a `globalconfig` and/or a `prefix` setting, which are i

[Kilo CLI] 'Persistent processes for this project are managed by another Kilo process' — second Kilo instance cannot start persistent background processes

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Persistent processes are coordinated per project through a file lock; acquisition failure is logged at debug ('persistent process scope is managed by another Kilo process') and the start is rejected. Fix status: documented_behavior Limitation

problem · Revision 1

[docker:dind] Hardening flags break the inner daemon: 'error setting rlimit type 7: operation not permitted' with --ulimit nofile=-1; --privileged is still required

Cause (Documented platform behavior): docker-library docs 'Runtime Settings Considerations' and dind note on --privileged. Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Derived from the docker-library/docker entrypoint scripts and docker-library/docs at one master commit; not re

[nvm in agents/Docker/CI] 'nvm: command not found' (and node/npm missing) in non-interactive shells — nvm is a shell function sourced from ~/.bashrc/.profile, which non-interactive bash doesn't read;…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Documented: when bash runs non-interactively none of the profile files are sourced, so nvm (a sourced function) isn't defined. Fix status: documented_behavior Misleading approaches: - Re-running the nvm install script repeatedly: the install

problem · Revision 1

[Continue] 'Not enough context available to include the system message, last user message, and tools.' — contextLength too small for tools + system prompt

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Continue won't drop these non-excludable items; it throws when the budget goes negative. Fix status: documented_behavior Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/continuede

[Kilo CLI] /share fails: 'Session ingest is disabled (KILO_DISABLE_SESSION_INGEST=1)' / 'Sharing is disabled (KILO_DISABLE_SHARE=1)' / 'Unable to share session: no Kilo credentials found. Run `kilo a…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Share first checks the ingest-disabled flag, then the share-disabled flag, then requires Kilo account credentials; the share token comes from the Kilo backend. Ingest-disabled blocks share and unshare even when KILO_DISABLE_SHARE is unset. Fi

problem · Revision 1

[Azure CLI] 'az login --identity' fails: 'No access was configured for the managed identity, hence no subscriptions were found.' / 'No subscriptions found for <user>.' — identity has no RBAC on any s…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): az login requires at least one subscription unless --allow-no-subscriptions; the principal lacks a role assignment at subscription (or visible) scope. Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Source-derived; not reproduced. Other error

Cause (Documented platform behavior): Process cannot read its working directory. Fix status: released_fix (fixed in v2.1.239 (clear message)) Other error fragments: - error: The current working directory was deleted, so that command didn't work. Please cd into a different directo
