  * Dev-only escape hatch: when `SIM_DEV_MINIMAL_REGISTRY=1` (`bun run dev:minimal`),

- * Turbopack/webpack resolve alias. The shared workspace layout drags the
- * ~247-tool registry (~2,074 modules) into every route via providers/utils →
- * tools/params, and the editor/executor pull all ~268 block configs; aliasing
- * both to minimal variants stops Turbopack from compiling those graphs, cutting
- * dev compile-time RAM (e.g. /logs ~16GB → ~5GB, 4.9min → ~15s). Only the
- * curated core blocks/tools work in this mode. Never enabled in production.
+ * Turbopack/webpack resolve alias.
+ *
+ * The tool registry (4,351 entries across 261 service dirs) pulls ~5,907 modules
+ * and is 68-78% of every workspace route's module graph; aliasing it away takes
+ * `app/workspace/layout.tsx` from 5,916 modules to 1,255. Blocks are NOT a
+ * co-equal cost - `blocks/registry-maps` alone accounts for ~349 modules and
+ * mostly rides in behind the tool registry.
+ *
+ * It is reached through ONE choke point (`tools/utils.ts` → `@/tools/registry`)
+ * fed by four redundant client-reachable edges: providers/utils → tools/params,
+ * lib/workflows/blocks/block-outputs, lib/workflows/sanitization/validation, and
+ * serializer/index. All four must be severed for any of them to matter, which is
+ * why cutting only the providers/utils edge buys a single module.
+ *
+ * Only the curated core blocks/tools work in this mode. Never enabled in
+ * production - the minimal variants genuinely drop ~250 services and ~280 blocks.
