What
When a session runs in 'diskless' mode (without a real disk to write to), background task output now goes to a synthetic placeholder path, /nonexistent/claude-code-diskless. Separately, any attempt to run a shell command in a diskless session now fails immediately with the reason diskless_no_shell instead of attempting to execute it.
Why
This makes it explicit and immediate that shell commands can't run without a disk, rather than letting a command attempt fail in a confusing way partway through.
