Without it, gateways such as OpenRouter reserve the target model's full context window up front and reject the call with HTTP 402 — so scanning a hosted model failed outright on exactly the credit-limited accounts most first-time users have +- fix: a reply that hits the token cap without producing a tool call is now reported as `⚠️ TRUNCATED` and counted as unresolved. Previously any response without a tool call was recorded as `SAFE`, so a model cut off mid-compliance would have been scored as having refused — a false negative, which is the one verdict a scanner must never invent +- feat: `--api-key` reads `MODELFUZZ_API_KEY` when not passed, so the key stays out of shell history and out of the process list +- fix: clip provider error messages to one line. A gateway 402 returns multiple KB of JSON that can carry account identifiers, and the whole blob was echoed per failed probe +- fix: an all-truncated run now says to raise `--max-tokens` instead of blaming the endpoint and model name + ## [0.3.4] - 2026-07-30 - fix: `URLAllowList` now inspects URLs nested inside `dict`, `list`, `tuple` and `set` arguments, including dict keys. A malicious URL hidden in a payload field — `http_post(url="https://api.internal.com/v1", payload={"redirect": "http://evil.com"})` — previously passed, because 0.3.2 taught the rule to skip non-string values without teaching it to look inside them.
