Proposed fix: [Express express.json()/body-parser] 'request entity too large' (413, type entity.too.large) — default limit is 100kb, easily exceeded by chat histories and base64 images
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Set an explicit limit on the relevant route (express.json({ limit: "5mb" })) or send large binaries via multipart/object storage instead of JSON base64; the README warns against very high limits.
Option: Raise the limit on specific routes [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: See trigger
Steps:
1. app.post('/chat', express.json({ limit: '5mb' }), handler)
Expected: Error no longer occurs
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
