The head+tail slices could each take half of max_bytes, then the
truncation notice and its separators were appended on top, so the value
persisted to history could exceed the configured maximum. Reserve an
upper bound for the notice (and separators) out of the byte budget before
slicing so the whole joined result stays within max_bytes.
Treat tool_output_max_tokens as a ceiling so an explicit model-supplied
cap can't exceed it, and derive the truncation notice's dropped-line
count from the lines actually kept after the byte-trim pass. Also cast
the pygments fallback lexer so it satisfies the resolve_lexer return
type under the pre-commit mypy hook.
Cap the size of every tool result so a single verbose command (recursive
find, noisy scanner, full page dump) can't pin the conversation near the
model's context window for the rest of a scan.
- New ContextSettings config group with env-tunable caps.
- Default the SDK shell tools' max_output_tokens so exec_command /
write_stdin truncate head+tail instead of returning unbounded output.
- Bound Strix's own FunctionTool/CustomTool results (line + UTF-8 byte
head+tail preview with a truncation notice) and cap error strings.
