Adversarial review: survived a hostile reviewer plus two independent refuters, each told to assume the PR was broken and to default to refuting when uncertain. 19 of 62 PRs cleared that bar.
The google embedding recipe declared no batch caps, so it rode the no-cap fast path with error backstops shaped for Voyage and OpenAI. Caps verified by behavioral probe — 40 texts split into 3 sub-batches matching the declared math. Sequenced after #3531, which touched the same recipe file.
Verified before merge: the PR's own tests fail when the production change is reverted; typecheck clean; MERGEABLE/CLEAN with 22/22 checks on the current base after batches 1-3 landed.
Known gap, recorded rather than hidden: Gemini's actual 20k limit was taken from vendor docs rather than a live call; being wrong in either direction is bounded by the cap itself.
