Prevent silent truncation of Squad activation label operations #1961

Closed

Description

@bradygaster

Parent: #1957

Problem

The add-labels safe-output maximum may be interpreted or enforced differently across calls and individual labels. A large supported activation must not silently lose label operations while still reporting success.

Scope

Define, configure, and enforce capacity for the documented maximum Squad activation size.

Success criteria

  • The maximum documented activation size and worst-case number of label operations are calculated and recorded in tests or workflow rationale.
  • Safe-output limits accommodate that worst case with an explicit bounded margin.
  • The workflow distinguishes limits on output items/calls from labels per call.
  • If an activation exceeds any supported limit, the run emits an explicit incomplete/failure result identifying affected work items.
  • No cap overflow is represented as a clean successful activation.
  • Self-validation compares expected activated items with targeted label operations.
  • Boundary tests cover the maximum supported size and one-over-limit behavior.
  • Strict gh-aw compilation and targeted tests pass.

Out of scope

Changing the planning hierarchy’s product limits or distributing the post-activation checker.
