aws cdk synth results in NEW folder under /tmp every time a command is run, which results to 100% disk space usage over time

Would you be able to give us a minimal reproduction application? I am able to get something similar to what you're describing, but only if my stack contains a CustomResources, e.g. BucketDeployment:

$ cdk synth
$ ls -t $TMPDIR | head
cdk-custom-resourceav715a
cdk-custom-resourcenjXTtG

aws-cdk/packages/aws-cdk-lib/core/lib/custom-resource-provider/custom-resource-provider-base.ts

Lines 232 to 233 in 2378635

	const stagingDirectory = FileSystem.mkdtemp('cdk-custom-resource');
	fs.copySync(props.codeDirectory, stagingDirectory, { filter: (src, _dest) => !src.endsWith('.ts') });

yes please share some code snippet. The cdk.out should be created in your cdk project root unless you specify -o to /tmp.
