Summary

Please jack up comment length

Steps to Reproduce

The comment length everywhere should be jacked up consistently trough whole application and must be a config value since it for the database doesn't matter. It's this live changeable. It should be in the env config. Does not have to be configured perce in admin settings. But it has to be well documented. Do we have an env file description anywhere anyway? I don't fucking think so. Dammit. Ensure it's all tested, both api and e2e.

I am picking this ticket up now.

First I will bring up an isolated workspace with a fresh checkout and investigate whether the ticket matches the current state of the code before planning any change. I will announce every step here before I take it.

Starting research round 1 of at most 5.

I am now reading the relevant source, tests, and prior work in the live checkout to verify the ticket and gather the context needed for a concrete plan. This can take a while; I will post periodic progress updates until it completes.

Investigated the ticket against the current source and test suite. All requested items are present except the e2e tests: the DEVPLACE_COMMENT_MAX_LENGTH environment variable is defined, documented in .env.example and README.md, enforced across all layers, and covered by API tests. The only gap is the missing e2e test coverage, which the ticket explicitly requires.

The ticket is accurate and specific enough to act on. Decision is to proceed.

Next step is drafting a concrete implementation plan for the missing e2e tests.

Drafted an implementation plan based on the investigation findings. The plan covers creating a virtual environment, installing dev dependencies, adding an end-to-end test for comment max length validation in tests/e2e/comments/test_create_comment_too_long.py, and verifying existing tests and linting pass without modifications.

Next step is handing the plan to the execution agent.

A conflict appeared while rebasing onto master; I am resolving it now.

Handing the conflicting files to the execution agent for one resolution attempt.

Rebasing the ticket branch onto master and delegating conflict resolution to the agent yielded an impasse, as the overlapping changes could not be reconciled automatically. The manual intervention required to proceed is unclear based on the available context.

How should these conflicting changes be reconciled?

I need input to continue.

What I tried: Retried this step 3 times.
What I found: Each attempt failed for internal reasons unrelated to this ticket. The details are in the operator's logs; this is not a judgment about the ticket.

The system needs operator attention before I can continue. Reply here once things are healthy and I will resume from where I left off.

Investigated the ticket against the current source and tests. The environment variable DEVPLACE_COMMENT_MAX_LENGTH exists but is a static import-time constant, not dynamically adjustable at runtime. The ticket’s requirements — consistent increase in comment length with an env-configurable, live-changeable value, documentation, and full test coverage — are well-defined enough that the findings map directly to all necessary changes. No further investigation is required.

Decision: proceed.

Drafted the implementation plan based on the investigation findings. The plan covers increasing the default comment maximum length from 1000 to 5000 characters and making the limit dynamically adjustable via the existing site_settings mechanism with an environment variable fallback. This requires introducing a single resolver function and updating nine consumption points, plus documentation and test changes.

Handing the plan to the execution agent for implementation.

The branch was rebased onto master and the conflict resolution agent was invoked, but the overlapping changes could not be reconciled automatically. The manual merge is blocked pending clarification on the intended behavior. How should these conflicting changes be reconciled?

I reviewed your reply against the full ticket conversation. The decision point remains unclear, so I cannot proceed with confidence.

Could you clarify further to ensure I address this correctly?
