create scratch dir: {e}

Error message

create scratch dir: {e}

What it means

Creating the per-turn temp directory (openhuman-cc- prefix) that holds --mcp-config and other transient Claude Code state failed. A tempfile/IO failure at turn setup — nothing has been spawned yet, and best-effort cleanup semantics mean the error is about disk/tmp permissions or space.

Solutions

1. Check TMPDIR writability and free space
2. Retry the turn; transient tempfile creation failures clear
