Claude Code Says 'All Tests Pass' but CI Goes Red — Designing Around Exit Code Pitfalls
Locally, Claude Code reports 'all tests pass.' You push it, and GitHub Actions turns red within minutes. The root cause is usually not Claude Code itself but how the shell and the test runner interpret exit codes. Here is a practical, experience-backed walkthrough.
