Bash tool hangs/returns empty on Windows 11 — causes token-burning retry loops

증상

원인

Agent entered a retry or decision loop without an exit condition, consuming tokens indefinitely without making progress. 카테고리: loop-stuck.

해결법

Running commands with run_in_background: true and redirecting to a temp file, then using the Read tool to retrieve output. This is clunky and still costs 3 tool calls per command.

## Impact

This is a significant usability and cost issue on Windows. Token burn from retries makes extended coding sessions expensive and frustrating. It particularly affects workflows that rely heavily on git operations (commit, diff, status, log).
