It suggests re-running the command on that machine with `head`, `tail`, or `grep` if that's safe.\n\n**Why**\n\nWithout 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.\n\n- Area: Multi-Machine\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5"}
