The cold-reading detection position's declared window is now 1,010,000 estimated tokens (widening 1,000,000) after the recalibration at 1a19fe55, which puts the assembled detection input past the million-token reader window the preset entries' own comment names as the bound. Each merged corpus lane grows it further, so the next recalibration will push widening past a million too. The documented alternative remedy is narrowing an entry's kinds (the comment measures widening without test at about 530,000), which changes a reading instrument and needs a ruling. Until then a reading at detection cannot be handed to a million-token reader whole.

Remedy grounds (2026-09-29)

• At the base both entries are past any whole reading: detection declares 1,410,000 and widening 1,400,000 (measured at c23b5f30).
• SOTA check: the host vendor's context-window guide (https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/build-with-claude/context-windows, read 2026-09-29) gives 1M tokens as the largest current window and says recall degrades as context grows; RULER (Hsieh et al., COLM 2024, https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.06654) finds effective context well below the claimed length. So a larger reader is not on offer, and a whole reading near 1M already sits in the degraded range; both favour reading less, but the pick is the ruling's.
• Rejected: raising the declared windows again with no bound, which the record exists to stop.
