The agent wrote a 72-char title and the run failed — just 2 over the 70 limit. 70 was a constraint from the old JSON format. With the .PR.md approach, GitHub PR titles can be up to 256 characters. 100 is a reasonable limit that gives the agent room for descriptive titles without being excessively long.
