Research direction

Start by reproducing the staging failure where the node stops syncing at a block height after the environment runs out of disk space, then trace the node's sync and storage error handling to identify the root cause. Done means the node shuts down gracefully, or forcefully if a complete refactor is required, instead of remaining unable to continue syncing.
