What

When a read comes in from another session and the target is a PDF, Read now refuses to return the whole file and refuses over-large page ranges, telling the caller to use pages or read the file on the machine where the session runs. It reports error code 16 for those, and error code 15 when a general remote path check fails.

Details
  • Both refusals apply only when the call carries a remote-call context. Local PDF reads are unchanged.
  • Read also gained a hook that suppresses all permission updates, and now sends an extra classifier field alongside the file path when auto-classifying a call.
Evidence

A whole PDF cannot be returned from this machine to the calling session
