Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure on /chat with App version 1.0.25 on macOS 26.5.2, using a conversation or prompt large enough to trigger the reported CAPI response error. Compare behavior with earlier GitHub app versions and document the conditions that reliably reproduce the failure.
