Description

Problem

MAX_FILE_SIZE is parsed directly with int(), so invalid, zero, or negative values produce confusing startup or runtime behavior.

Acceptance criteria

  • Reject non-integer values with a clear configuration error.
  • Reject zero and negative values.
  • Add focused tests for valid and invalid configuration values.
