Thank you Brian, you're right regarding the @tmp directory. However
the @script directory seems to be different.
I'm searching in the source code of the workflow cps plugin. The file
CpsScmFlowDefinition.java seems to be the place where the workspace@script
behavior is implemented. It seems that it use this mechanism to checkout
and search the entire repository for the Jenkinsfile. I didn't look very
careful at this code yet but it make me concern a little bit about the
efficiency of this operation. If in order to search for the Jenkinsfile,
it has to check out the entire repository then it would be quite slow for
big repository. I wonder whether some repository has option to simply
search the file inside or not and whether Jenkins actually implements this
functionality this way.
