The rebuilt-index case (empty `archive_state`, hours rotated out of MySQL) lands on the gap branch, so an agent is steered toward a possibly incomplete reconstruction whe",

The console UI never mentions it: nothing shows whether it is enabled, where it listens, or how to connect, and enabling it requires knowing the flag exists.\n\nConnect AI is the precedent: the console tells you your MCP URL and how to wire each client.

Observed live: 69 parent events produced a ~64 KB single-field response; MCP clients cap tool-result size, so a real incident (a cascade touching thousands of child rows) hands the client a payload it refuses or truncates, and the operator loses exactly the artifact the tool exists to produce.
