🛡️ Sentinel Report: Input Length Limits

Vulnerability: Missing input length limits on user configuration fields (Name, System Instructions, Greeting).
Severity: MEDIUM (DoS risk, potential UI performance issues)
Impact: Malicious actors or accidental usage could inject extremely long strings, potentially causing UI freezes or excessive token usage when passed to the AI model.
Fix:

  • Defined strict character limits in constants.ts.
  • Enforced limits in WelcomeScreen.tsx (both maxLength attribute and state truncation).
  • Added visual feedback (character counters).
    Verification:
  • npm test passed (including new tests for truncation).
  • Visual verification confirmed character counters and input restriction.

PR created automatically by Jules for task 17698072626999159545 started by @tblakex01

- Added `MAX_INPUT_LENGTHS` to `constants.ts` to define safe limits for user inputs.
- Implemented enforcement in `WelcomeScreen.tsx` with visual indicators.
- Added truncation logic to prevent DoS via excessively long strings.
- Added unit tests to verify limits are respected.
