Bounding the oversize-member overshoot freed enough headroom that the response no longer truncates the same section away. Every file obeys the new bound on this repo (max ratio 1.40x of spendable, against the 1.5x ceiling). What the failure exposes is real and pre-existing: parse-run.mjs scores 18 against tools.ts's 58 yet is reserved a comparable slice — a low-scoring file taking a top-file share, which is epic CG-24's subject.
