Apply the rename pass to READMEs and docs the master sweep rewrote, fix PTC mode anchors and the renamed-note links in the spill READMEs, and regenerate the doc graphs.

# spill/ — tool-output spill capability family
|
|
|
|
English | [中文](README.zh.md)

|
## Summary
|
|
|
|
The `spill/` group keeps oversized tool output out of the model's context without losing it: when a tool result exceeds a deployment's byte cap, the full text is saved to a spill artifact and the model sees a bounded preview plus a locator it can read or search later. The family splits into three packages — the storage service in `spill/`, the local filesystem backend in `spill-local/`, and the result policy in `spill-policy/` that decides when a final tool result is too large. Spilling is opt-in and best-effort: the policy acts only when `maxInlineBytes` is configured, and a storage failure leaves the original result visible. The group owns storage and result replacement only; preview mechanics live in `dsh-output-retention`, and provider resource caps remain separate.

## Packages
|
|
|
|
Three packages play the spill roles; the subsystem reference owns the exhaustive vocabulary and contracts.
|
|
|
|
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| [`spill/`](spill/README.md) | Storage service: saves oversized tool text and returns a locator plus retrieval guidance | `ctx.spillStore` |
|
|
| [`spill-local/`](spill-local/README.md) | Saves spilled text to private session-scoped files on this machine | registers on `ctx.spillStore` |
|
|
| [`spill-policy/`](spill-policy/README.md) | Replaces oversized plain-text tool results with a preview and locator | listens on `ctx.tools` |
