From 2f4c067e8accbe5a68825d008f14ec9870f61353 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Danyang Chen Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 07:59:21 +0800 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [Fix] Injection guard: withhold uninspected result text and record handling and coverage Below the act band, a guarded result longer than the 6,000 characters the decision reads now reaches the model as the inspected prefix plus a withheld notice. Rail ticks record handling (pass, pass_uncertain, withhold_uninspected, act, act_on_failure, ...) and coverage counts without tool-output text. RailSpec gains optional coverage_of and on_partial. The runtime policy is documented in docs/agents.md.
