Linux's MAX_ARG_STRLEN caps any single argv element at 128 KB
(32 * PAGE_SIZE). The previous heredoc-in-the-command-string approach
in _write_to_sandbox put the entire tool result inside the 'bash -c'
arg, so any result over ~128 KB raised OSError [Errno 7] 'Argument
list too long' before the heredoc ever ran. The caller logged a
warning, but quiet_mode (CLI default) sets tools.* to ERROR — so the
warning never reached agent.log either, and the agent saw a 1.5 KB
preview tagged 'Full output could not be saved to sandbox'. Hits
delegate_task with 3+ subagent outputs routinely now.
Switch to passing content via env.execute(stdin_data=...). cmd is
now just 'mkdir -p X && cat > Y' (under 1 KB), and the heavyweight
payload travels through stdin where there is no argv-element limit.
E2E reproduced the user's exact 144,778-char delegate_task envelope:
old code OSError'd, new code round-trips cleanly to disk with all
three task summaries intact.
Set max_result_size_chars=100_000 on the read_file registry entry (was
float('inf')), closing the Layer 2 defense-in-depth gap in
tool_result_storage.py. The existing Layer 1 guard inside
_handle_read_file already returns a JSON error for oversized reads;
this aligns the registry cap with every other tool.
Update test_read_file_never_persisted → test_read_file_result_size_cap
to assert 100_000, and add test_read_file_registry_cap_is_100k as an
explicit regression guard against re-introducing float('inf').

_write_to_sandbox interpolated storage_dir and remote_path directly into
a shell command passed to env.execute(). Paths containing shell
metacharacters (spaces, semicolons, $(), backticks) could trigger
arbitrary command execution inside the sandbox.
Fix: wrap both paths with shlex.quote(). Clean paths (alphanumeric +
slashes/hyphens/dots) are left unmodified by shlex.quote, so existing
behavior is unchanged. Paths with unsafe characters get single-quoted.
Tests added for spaces, $(command) substitution, and semicolon injection.
- DEFAULT_RESULT_SIZE_CHARS: 50K -> 100K (match current _LARGE_RESULT_CHARS)
- DEFAULT_PREVIEW_SIZE_CHARS: 2K -> 1.5K (match current _LARGE_RESULT_PREVIEW_CHARS)
- Per-tool overrides all set to 100K (terminal, execute_code, search_files)
- Remove pre-read byte guard (no behavioral regression vs current main)
- Revert limit signature change to int=500 (match current default)
- Restore original read_file schema description
- Update test assertions to match 100K thresholds
