WalkthroughLarge-file reads now support bounded line ranges. Content search uses a separate size cap, streams file content, reports skipped files, propagates cancellation, and limits matches per file. Tests cover range handling, search limits, binary rejection, CRLF handling, and cancellation. ChangesLarge-file handling
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change expands searching and ranged reading to larger files, but the current implementation still has bounded correctness risks: binary files may be processed unexpectedly, UTF-8 conversion can make returned ranges exceed the configured limit, and concurrent searches may produce incomplete skipped-file reporting.

If sc.Err() fires here, searchContentLocal still turns it into zero matches, so a long line is reported as a miss. Surface the error or put the file in SkippedFiles.

如果这里触发 `sc.Err()`，`searchContentLocal` 仍然会把它变成零匹配，所以长行会被当成未命中。请把错误上抛，或者把文件放进 `SkippedFiles`。There was a problem hiding this comment.
Fixed in 346eac7. A scan that fails partway now puts the file in skipped_files on both the glob and single-file paths (the single-file path previously reported it as "not a directory"), and the message says a file was not searched because it is beyond the cap or has a line the scanner cannot hold. Regression covers both paths with an over-buffer line.

This counter is one byte high, so a slice whose real size equals maxFileSize is rejected. Use the joined length instead.

Fixed in 346eac7. The counter now adds a separator only between lines, so it equals the joined length; a range of exactly max_file_size bytes is served and one byte more is refused. Regression covers both.

segment for NUL bytes during scanning, not only the selected chunk validated by
rejectNonText. Update the surrounding read/scan flow to reject any segment
containing a NUL while preserving existing text-range behavior, and add a
regression test with the NUL outside both the initial 512-byte probe and
selected range.
- Line 400: Update the ranged-read size accounting around collected so it
matches strings.Join(lines, "\n"): add separator bytes only for selected lines
after the first, not for every line. Add a ranged-read test whose returned
content exactly equals maxFileSize and verify it succeeds.
- Line 250: Pass the request context into readLargeFileRange, placing
context.Context first according to project conventions, and check ctx.Err()
within its file-reading loop so cancellation stops scanning promptly and
propagates the cancellation error. Update the call site and add a regression
test covering an already-canceled context during large-file range reads.
Apply the same fix in `@tool/file/searchcontent.go` around lines 589 - 592: The

and Truncated behavior as local-file searching. Preserve the existing truncation
message, and add regression coverage for direct workspace references and
workspace directory searches.
- Around line 599-600: Update searchFileContent’s scanner configuration and
line-processing logic so CRLF input preserves the carriage return in
line_content and regex matching, matching searchTextContent’s strings.Split
semantics; keep LF handling and maxSearchLineSize behavior unchanged.
- Around line 615-616: Update the search flows around the scanner error check
using sc.Err() so per-file scan failures are propagated separately from
SkippedFiles. Ensure directory searches retain and report scanner failures
instead of discarding them, while single-file searches return the scan failure
directly rather than converting it into an “is a file, not a directory” result.
- Line 49: Update searchSizeCap to prevent overflow when multiplying
f.maxFileSize by searchSizeCapMultiple: return math.MaxInt64 when the configured
size exceeds the safely scalable range, and preserve the normal multiplication
for valid non-negative values.

… readLargeFileRange readLargeFileRange had grown past the cyclomatic-complexity limit the linter enforces. The part after the scan — checking the range exists, rejecting non-text, replacing invalid UTF-8, and composing the message — moves into finishLargeFileRange, taking what the scan collected as one value. Tests now reach the branches the streaming change added: a single file searched by path that is beyond the search cap, cancelled, or unscannable because a line exceeds the scanner's buffer; a directory matched by the file pattern; the per-file match cap and its message; the periodic cancellation check inside the scan; a workspace search under a cancelled context; the nil-request and unsupported-scheme guards; and, for ranged reads of large files, a range that turns out not to be text, one carrying invalid UTF-8, a file that cannot be opened, and the in-memory slicer refusing a range larger than the read limit.

… NUL semantics A file whose scan failed partway — a line beyond the scanner's buffer — was reported as zero matches on the glob path and as "not a directory" on the single-file path. Both now name it in skipped_files beside the oversized ones, and the message says why a file was not searched. The range limit counted a newline after every line, so a range whose returned size was exactly max_file_size was refused; it now counts the joined length. The streaming scanner split on ScanLines, which drops "\r" from CRLF lines, while the cached and workspace backends keep it. It now splits on "\n" alone so both backends report the same line content and match the same patterns. A ranged read of an oversized file checked the head and the returned range for NUL bytes but not what the scan passed over between them; every segment read is now checked, as a whole-file read checks the whole file. The search cap saturates instead of overflowing for a read limit above MaxInt64/64, and the permission test is skipped on Windows, where chmod 0 does not deny reads.

Count sanitized bytes against maxFileSize.
Line 422 counts bytes before sanitizeText. Separate invalid UTF-8 sequences can expand to U+FFFD, so a selected range that passes this check can return rsp.Contents larger than maxFileSize.
Sanitize selected lines before size accounting, or measure the sanitized result before assigning it to the response. Add a boundary test with separated invalid bytes.

Bound search result collection and synchronize skipped-file reporting.
The search implementation can append skipped paths concurrently with traversal, which can lose entries or corrupt the slice. In addition, in-memory searches through searchTextContent do not apply the 500-match limit, so workspace and cache results can still produce unbounded responses despite the new contract.
Protect every skipped append with the shared mutex and use the bounded collector for in-memory searches, including truncation metadata and messaging. Add regression coverage for mixed skipped files and 501 matching lines.

Source: Coding guidelines
The walking loop appended oversized files to skipped without the mutex while goroutines for earlier files appended scan failures under it, a race that could drop the very "not searched" report the field exists to carry. The loop's append now takes the same lock. The regression interleaves unreadable files, whose goroutines record the failure, with oversized ones the loop records, and asserts all of them are named; under -race it fails without the lock.

search_content silently skips any file larger than max_file_size in three of its four paths: a glob that matches only a large file returns "Found 0 files matching", indistinguishable from the file not existing. An agent reading that result can mistake an unsearched file for evidence of absence.
This change makes search stream files line by line (bufio.Scanner), so memory use is bounded by the longest line rather than the file size, and files above the read limit become searchable up to a 64x cap. Files beyond even that cap, and files whose scan fails partway on a line the scanner cannot hold, are named in a new skipped_files response field and called out in the message, never dropped silently. Lines are split on "\n" alone, so a CRLF line keeps its "\r" as it does through the cached and workspace backends. Per-file output is bounded at 500 matching lines, noted when truncated.
read_file gains the complementary fix: a start_line/num_lines read of an over-limit file now streams to the requested range and applies max_file_size to the returned slice instead of the whole file, since the limit exists to bound what is returned, not what the tool may look at. Whole-file reads of over-limit files keep failing, with a message that points at ranged reads and search_content. The limit is the size of what is returned, the lines joined by "\n". The in-memory slicer applies the same range-aware limit; line numbering and out-of-range errors keep their existing semantics, and every segment the streaming read passes over is checked for NUL bytes, as a whole-file read checks the whole file.
Tests updated to assert the reporting (the previous suite codified the silent skip) plus new coverage for streamed search, capped matches, ranged reads of large files, oversized ranges, and binary rejection.
