Observed symptom: A broad rebuild can turn one canonical edit into an unbounded cache or projection storm. The reusable problem is: Bound fan-out by explicit impact targets. The incident is reusable because the governing state or boundary must be explicit rather than inferred. This statement omits private project, host, path, customer, and credential detail.

Recommended action: Store and enforce the affected target set, with a visible bound and an overflow convergence path. Success check: The receipt names the target set, bound, overflow state, and eventual convergence check.
