What
When working across multiple machines with a teammate, if a tool call run on another machine produces output that gets truncated (cut short), Claude Code now builds a specific message explaining this: the output was truncated on the remote machine, and the full output only exists there. It suggests re-running the command on that machine with head, tail, or grep if that's safe.
Why
Without this notice, Claude might assume it has the complete output when it doesn't. This makes the limitation explicit and points toward a way to retrieve the missing data from the machine that actually has it.
