v1.0.9 — scale resilience + stage-progression guidance

Hardening surfaced by a large ACE opportunity reconciliation.

Rate limits

• Recognize the live HTTP 400 {"message":"Rate exceeded. Try again later."} throttle (not only -32004/429) and back off across the ~30s sendMessage refill window. Previously these throttles surfaced as hard errors mid-workflow.

Large sessions

• Cap the combined tool-result size (text + structuredContent) under the MCP client's token limit, so large get_session results (especially response_format:'json') no longer exceed it and get shunted to an unreadable temp file. Trims events while always preserving status + pending approval_requests.

Stage-progression guidance

• send_message now documents that opportunity writes and stage progression (including Launched / closed-won) are partner-initiated; the agent's readiness "validation" is advisory, not a hard gate — phrase requests as instructions to execute.

Also includes the previously-unreleased v1.0.8: clickable opportunity console links, friendly tool labels (annotations.title), a status emoji, and structuredContent no longer carrying the raw payload.
