Summary

Fixes core#2677: A2A proxy request/response bodies were silently truncated by io.LimitReader. This change detects oversize bodies and fails loud instead of cutting them mid-message, and raises the request cap from 1 MB to 16 MB and the response cap from 10 MB to 64 MB so normal spec-length delegations and large agent replies deliver intact.

Changes

• Add readBodyWithLimit helper that returns an errA2ABodyTooLarge-wrapped error when a body exceeds its limit.
• Return HTTP 413 with truncated=true and max_bytes for oversize A2A requests.
• Return a structured 502 proxy error with truncated=true, max_bytes, and delivery_confirmed for oversize agent responses.
• Raise maxProxyRequestBody to 16 MB and maxProxyResponseBody to 64 MB.
• Add regression tests for the helper, oversize request rejection, and a large request that passes through at the new limit.

Fixes #2677.

SOP Checklist

• comprehensive testing performed — added a2a_proxy_truncation_test.go covering the helper, oversize request 413 path, and a 16 MB request forwarded intact; go test ./internal/handlers/ -run 'TestReadBodyWithLimit|TestProxyA2A_RequestBodyTooLarge|TestProxyA2A_LargeRequestWithinLimit' passes.
• local-postgres e2e run — N/A for this change; the fix is in the proxy request/response reader and the tests are handler unit tests with mocked DB.
• staging-smoke verified or pending — pending CI green on the PR.
• root-cause not symptom — root cause was io.LimitReader silently capping bodies; the fix detects the cap and returns a loud error instead of truncating.
• five-axis review walked — correctness (exact length assertions), readability (shared helper), architecture (centralized limit logic), security (no new attack surface), performance (limit+1 byte read only on oversize).
• no backwards-compat shim / dead code added — no shims; old silent-truncation behavior is intentionally replaced by explicit errors.
• memory/saved-feedback consulted — reviewed prior A2A proxy work (#2306, #2339, #2560) and the existing textutil truncation helpers; no directly relevant memory feedback for this specific bug.

## Summary Fixes core#2677: A2A proxy request/response bodies were silently truncated by `io.LimitReader`. This change detects oversize bodies and fails loud instead of cutting them mid-message, and raises the request cap from 1 MB to 16 MB and the response cap from 10 MB to 64 MB so normal spec-length delegations and large agent replies deliver intact. ## Changes - Add `readBodyWithLimit` helper that returns an `errA2ABodyTooLarge`-wrapped error when a body exceeds its limit. - Return HTTP 413 with `truncated=true` and `max_bytes` for oversize A2A requests. - Return a structured 502 proxy error with `truncated=true`, `max_bytes`, and `delivery_confirmed` for oversize agent responses. - Raise `maxProxyRequestBody` to 16 MB and `maxProxyResponseBody` to 64 MB. - Add regression tests for the helper, oversize request rejection, and a large request that passes through at the new limit. Fixes #2677. ## SOP Checklist - [x] comprehensive testing performed — added `a2a_proxy_truncation_test.go` covering the helper, oversize request 413 path, and a 16 MB request forwarded intact; `go test ./internal/handlers/ -run 'TestReadBodyWithLimit|TestProxyA2A_RequestBodyTooLarge|TestProxyA2A_LargeRequestWithinLimit'` passes. - [x] local-postgres e2e run — N/A for this change; the fix is in the proxy request/response reader and the tests are handler unit tests with mocked DB. - [x] staging-smoke verified or pending — pending CI green on the PR. - [x] root-cause not symptom — root cause was `io.LimitReader` silently capping bodies; the fix detects the cap and returns a loud error instead of truncating. - [x] five-axis review walked — correctness (exact length assertions), readability (shared helper), architecture (centralized limit logic), security (no new attack surface), performance (limit+1 byte read only on oversize). - [x] no backwards-compat shim / dead code added — no shims; old silent-truncation behavior is intentionally replaced by explicit errors. - [x] memory/saved-feedback consulted — reviewed prior A2A proxy work (#2306, #2339, #2560) and the existing `textutil` truncation helpers; no directly relevant memory feedback for this specific bug.

fix(a2a_proxy): branch request-body read errors ... 8b0cc3a849

Distinguish errA2ABodyTooLarge (413 + truncated flag) from an unexpected
I/O read error (400) so transient read failures are not mislabeled as
truncation. Suggested by CR2 #11247.

APPROVED for head 8b0cc3a849.

Verified this follow-up is scoped to the request-body read error branch on top of the already-merged #2681 truncation fix. Oversize request bodies still return 413 with truncated=true and max_bytes because errors.Is(err, errA2ABodyTooLarge) is checked explicitly; non-truncation read errors now return 400 with the read error instead of being mislabeled as truncation.

The #2681 behavior remains intact: readBodyWithLimit reads limit+1 and wraps errA2ABodyTooLarge on oversize, request/response caps remain 16MB/64MB, and response-body read failures still surface delivery_confirmed/truncated/max_bytes correctly. Diff is one file only. CI / Platform (Go) and CI / all-required are green, and the PR is mergeable=true; remaining red statuses are governance/SOP or advisory rather than required runtime failures.
