2026-08-31 — itd-185's record-size limit is DECIDED in capture.IngestReading on the assembled bytes, not estimated from the payload; reading's recordBytes stays as a cheap early filter that buys item-level granularity. Ground: two attempts to decide it upstream each modelled one lengthening step (the escaper) and missed the next (the redactor, which exceeds 2x and scales with body length), and a record past the limit is durable and permanently undispositionable. Rejected: a third coefficient.
