All verification passes complete — the phase was already fully implemented in the working tree, and every gate is green. No defects found; no code changes were needed. **Final verification pass — Phase 114 (embed question length):** - Verified truncation: `chat.py:459` embeds `request.message[:settings.embed_question_max_chars]` (default 1200, `BOR_EMBED_QUESTION_MAX_CHARS`, `>0` validator); full question still reaches the LLM prompt/log. - Verified error mapping: `EmbeddingInputTooLargeError(EmbeddingError)` (byte-identical message) caught **before** `EmbeddingError` → no retry, terminal frame `detail="Question too long — trim it and re-ask."` + reachability-fine hint; `ChatErrorEvent.hint` additive. - Verified frontend chain: frame `hint` → `err.hint` → `setUiState(error, …, {hint})` → `showErrorBanner(…, {retryable: true})` — hint replaces default `ERROR_HINT`, phase-111 `#banner-retry` button revealed. 4,000-char clamp untouched (A2). - `uv run pytest tests/unit/test_embed_question_length.py -v --no-cov` → 21 passed - `uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_embed_question_length.py -v --no-cov` (isolation, DB up) → 1 passed (4,000-char question → done, no banner) - Regression: `test_llm_retry.py` 4 passed · `test_oneshot_llm_retry.py` 2 passed · `test_chip_sizing_question_cap.py` 6 passed - `uv run pytest --cov=app --cov-report=term-missing` → 2444 passed, TOTAL **99%** (>90% gate) - `uv run ruff check .` → All checks passed; `uv run pyright` → 0 errors, 0 warnings **Completion criteria:** (1) 4,000-char question embeds prefix + full prompt ✅ · (2) too-large → accurate frame + hint + Retry button ✅ · (3) reachability failure byte-identical (retries + old copy) ✅ · (4) all gates green ✅ · (5) commit/phase-move → left to the harness per instructions (no `git add`/`commit` run). **Deviations:** none. **Next pending phase:** `115_doc_draft_discard`.
