An invalid REA_KUNA_TIMEOUT_MS throws once its runtime override is reset. That check now happens before either shared-slot acquisition, so a failed independent decompile cannot leave the provider-wide pool blocked.
A malformed migrated launch seed stays on the config and the operation view reports configuration_invalid unless a snapshot override is active. Kuna, regex, GDB, and Rizin keep the deadline or heap accepted when the work started, and reattributed resource errors copy the structured limit.
Startup no longer rejects a runtime-owned REA_ seed, so update_analysis_settings can replace it. Debugger construction keeps only the restart-only caps, Kuna stores the launch baseline rather than a cached override, and the advertised operations include GDB close, Rizin close, Kuna list_procedures, and the stable-file ChangeTime callers.
The bridge ceiling lists every Hopper and Ghidra bridge operation plus the Cutter calls, and a test fails when a registry entry is missing. ChangeTime observation and the other launch-seed parsers read an accepted override before rejecting an invalid value.
JEB, Kuna, Windows, debugger, and Cutter consult an accepted override before rejecting an invalid launch value. JEB and Hopper startup deadlines keep default, setting, or runtime as the limit source, and a Kuna timeout without its own limit uses the selected project deadline source.
Startup timeout wrapping keeps the debugger setting limit. Pwntools and Kuna failures report the selected source. Cutter session and command operations can inspect the bridge ceiling.
GDB reads the accepted command-output cap when it admits a command. Cutter uses that same accepted bridge ceiling for mismatch and request checks. Kuna project-timeout metadata includes the operations that wait on the shared export.
Part of #9881. Move the limits checked on each call into update_analysis_settings, keep their REA_ seeds and bounds, and reject updates outside the allowed range.
Retain existing merge resolutions for update modes, source-scan failures and external-reader fixtures while replaying the settings layer on the merged inventory. Preserve parent provenance, candidate counts and presentation-test resource bounds.

A one-shot CLI failure tells the caller to set the launch environment for the next REA process. update_analysis_settings stays on the continuing session. Reused JavaScript workers also keep the limit source that selected them.
analysis_timeout_ms, max_heap_mb, and command_timeout_ms keep the source chosen by the caller, the runtime override, or the built-in default. A request value reports update_mode parameter because update_analysis_settings cannot change that call.
artifact_limits and web-network budgets report update_mode parameter because update_analysis_settings cannot change them. The legacy-name scan no longer reads docs, and the 2026-11-09 Ghidra receipts are restored to the fields they recorded.
Invalid ChangeTime settings now carry update_mode and pending_restart through the configuration error and its projection, including startup parsing. Runtime recoveries name update_analysis_settings instead of telling the caller to restart REA.
Callers read update_mode to see whether update_analysis_settings can change a limit, and pending_restart only when a configured value is not active in this process.
The prepared full/full fixture takes 31.73 seconds on two CPU cores; restoring a 20 second child deadline causes a real bounded-run failure. Keep the 60 second child budget and 70 second outer deadline.

A numeric parser now reads property and element accesses in its argument, so Number(process.env.REA_ARCHIVE_ENTRY_LIMIT) is a producer without a schema key. Template discovery keeps generated assignments and no longer treats a diagnostic sentence as a read.
New per-call registry entries are rejected. Inventory checks require a table row, and the Electron argv handoff is process protocol rather than a caller setting.
