      "Excerpt": "## Summary\n\nWhen `max_rows` is configured in `[[tools]]` and a query hits the cap, the MCP response contains no indication that the result was truncated. The `count` field equals `max_rows`, which is indistinguishable from a table that genuinely has that many rows. LLM consumers cannot detect that the result is incomplete.\n\n## Steps to reproduce\n\n1. Configure a tool with `max_rows = 200`\n2. Query a table with more than 200 rows\n3. Response: `count: 200`, 200 rows returned\n4. Query a table with e",
