      "Title": "mcp: evaluate progressive retrieval and evidence handoffs in agent traces",
      "Excerpt": "## Motivation\n\nLeanToken recommends `files → outline/search → exact read → context when uncertain`, and returns hashes and compact receipts for handoffs. The protocol supports that workflow, but there is not yet real-model evidence that the descriptions and receipts reduce broad reads, repeated reads, or handoff reconstruction.\n\nAdding more guidance or a runtime “next action” field without traces could increase schema cost without changing agent behavior.\n\n## Proposed solution\n\nUse the model-in-",

The primary repository owns another complete copy.\n\nWith the configured maximum of eight contexts, all nominally bounded capacities are multiplied by nine at the process",

A caller—or accidental cursor corruption—can change only the plaintext offset to any in-range value and LeanToken will accept it.\n\nThe forged offset can skip arbitrary JSON-pointer entries and produce a terminal page with:\n\n```text\nremaining_items = 0\nnext_cursor = None\n```\n\neven though entries between the legitimate and forged offsets were never",

      "Excerpt": "## Motivation\n\nLeanToken is a read-only source discovery and bounded retrieval layer for coding agents. During a cross-platform CI investigation, source retrieval was useful for locating the ownership, launcher, package-verifier, and test code, but it could not establish facts about generated `dist` output, macOS process-table state, subprocess timing, or remote CI results.\n\nThe current retrieval contract can therefore give an agent relevant source without making the remaining proof boundary suf",

The MCP process answers the protocol handshake first, but Codex can still mark LeanToken's tools unavailable while the cold build is running.\n\nThis is separate from the broad-root/OOM incident in #157 and the unbounded reconcile report in #148: the root here was `/root/preference`, not `$HOME`,",

The helper runs with the LeanToken process user's host authority and environment. It can also replace the expected unified diff with arbitrary or empty output, so the resulting hunk evidence may be silent",

Retrying the same retrieval with the same ID suppresses exact/overlapping evidence that the caller never received.\n\nThis vio",

The Rust JMESPath engine can represent those repeated values internally with reference-counted nodes, but LeanToken immediately serializes the complete result into a new owned JSON value.
