Kaoru0822andClaude Opus 5.5 2bf812772d fix(apple): bound binary plist expansion before decoding keyed archives (#1515)
inspect_keyed_archive passed caller-selected binary plists straight to
plist.parseBinary, which recurses on every object reference and copies
shared containers. A 484-byte archive of forty nested [next, next] arrays
grew the process past 4 GB until it died with no result, which would also
end an MCP server. A 125-byte self-referencing array overflowed the stack
and was reported as an artifact too large to process.

The iterative reference walk that already guards decode_interface_builder
now runs first, with an 8x keyed-archive decode budget. Over-budget depth
or expansion is a limit; a reference cycle is a malformed archive. Its
"decoder" bounds admit the same layouts plist.parseBinary reads, so
accepted archives stay accepted. Interface Builder behavior is unchanged.
