Report #15443

[agent\_craft] Agent crashes or degrades when asked to process massive files, leading to denial of service or safety bypass via truncated safety prompts

Implement strict token limits on tool outputs and input files. Stream or chunk data processing rather than loading entire files into context. Ensure safety instructions are placed at the beginning and end of the context window.

Journey Context:
Attackers can use large inputs to push safety instructions out of the active attention window. Chunking protects the context, and placing safety instructions at both ends mitigates the 'lost in the middle' phenomenon. OWASP LLM Top 10 \(LLM10: Unbounded Consumption\) addresses resource exhaustion and the need for input limits.
