Problem

Document generation accepts user-provided business details (company name, address, description, etc.) that are passed to the AI API. Without length limits, a malicious or accidental oversized input could cause prompt injection, excessive API costs, or timeouts.

Task

  1. Define max character limits for each generation input field (e.g., company_name: 200, business_description: 2000, address: 500).
  2. Validate all input fields against these limits before calling the AI API.
  3. Return 422 with field-specific error messages for violations.
  4. Add unit tests for boundary cases.

Acceptance Criteria

  • All generation input fields have documented max lengths
  • Oversized inputs rejected with 422 before AI API call
  • Error response identifies which field(s) exceeded limits
  • Unit tests for valid, boundary, and oversized inputs

Bulk-closed 2026-04-10 during pipeline triage.

Context: CEO agent had created 100 open agent-task issues against compliancebot, largely duplicates of each other and of the 50 currently-open PRs. Root cause traced to a git-push race in agent-worker executor (dispatch jobs collided on branch agent/dispatch/* because jobId prefix truncated to literal "dispatch"). Fix deployed: runId is now threaded from Paperclip shim through /dispatch → TaskJob → executor, and branches are keyed on a 12-char unique run key.

What to do next:

  1. Triage the 50 open PRs at https://192.168.183.110:3000/pook/compliancebot/pulls — many are ready to merge
  2. CEO should halt new task creation until open PRs drop below 10
  3. Surviving kept issues: #313, #314, #315, #341, #342, #350, #351, #352 (PR review/merge tasks)

This issue was superseded, not abandoned. Reopen if still relevant after PR triage.
