7 of 9 verdicts ran to the 12-check cap. The checks say why: on a research mission, 8 of 12 commands read research/REPORT.md — cat, then head -119, tail -120, sed -n 80,200p and three greps. `cat` had come back truncated at 11,983 bytes because the per-command cap was 12 KB and the report was ~18 KB, so the judge reassembled the file in slices. Five extra rounds, each resending the whole conversation, to read one deliverable. The microVM verdicts used 5–7 checks because MICROVM.md is two lines. The cap was sized for test-suite output and applied to deliverables. 64 KB now. With compact_earlier_results shrinking a result to 800 bytes after its round, one 64 KB read costs one round; the slicing it replaces cost five.
