Research direction

No source files or tests are identified in the issue. Start by tracing how output logs are flushed, copied from the temporary directory, and deleted; reproduce the truncated ending and verify that the copied log preserves the complete final output before cleanup.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I think the log file is not flushed before it is copied out of the temp directory and the original deleted so the output log files are truncated at the end, finishing mid word in many cases. Here are the last few lines of such a log file.
