+Every item is bounded before it enters either delivery path, because a timeline page is one
+WebSocket message and the daemon closes a socket whose outbound buffer passes 64 MiB. Tool calls get
+64 KiB and other items 256 KiB. Over budget, the largest strings are cut to a shared length with a
+`…[truncated 12.3 MB]` marker, and an oversized `data:` URL is replaced by the marker. Strings up
+to 1 KiB stay whole, so ids and paths survive. Arrays drop their trailing elements without a marker
+element, so typed arrays still match the wire schema. Limiting an item twice gives the same item. The
+budget does not bound wide objects or multi-byte text. The same
+bounded item is used for runtime timeline rows and live stream events. Provider history hydration
+applies the same rule so reopening an agent cannot restore an oversized payload. Fetches apply it
+again to assistant and reasoning rows the projection merges from many chunks.
