Xcode.xip No Space Left On Device On Linux tmpfs

When `Xcode.xip` extraction fails around the SDK/framework write step but the main disk still has free space, check the temp filesystem before deleting project files.

Free Mac scan

Run the free Mac scan before deleting.

The Mac scan reads storage metadata locally, then shows the largest visible buckets and the files that need an AI delete / confirm / protect judgment.

Why it happens

Large Xcode archives can expand through `TMPDIR`, `/tmp`, or another temporary extraction path. On many Linux desktops and CI images that path may be a small tmpfs backed by RAM or a small mount, so extraction reports `No space left on device` even when `/home` has tens of gigabytes free.

Read-only evidence block

printf "\n## main filesystem\n"
df -h "$HOME" .
df -i "$HOME" .

printf "\n## temp filesystem\n"
printf "TMPDIR=%s\n" "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}"
df -h "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}" /tmp
df -i "${TMPDIR:-/tmp}" /tmp
mount | grep -E " /tmp |tmpfs|${TMPDIR:-/tmp}" || true

printf "\n## xip and target\n"
du -sh ./Xcode*.xip 2>/dev/null || true
du -sh ./Xcode.app 2>/dev/null || true

Safe first workaround

Move the extraction temp path to a real disk location with enough free bytes and inodes. Keep the original `.xip` and partial `Xcode.app` until you know whether the retry completed.

mkdir -p "$HOME/.xcode-xip-tmp"
df -h "$HOME/.xcode-xip-tmp"
TMPDIR="$HOME/.xcode-xip-tmp" xtool setup
