The grep and glob tools are consistently failing with a "Maximum call stack size exceeded" error, which is preventing the Architecture Guard from scanning the codebase for violations.

Steps to Reproduce:

Run the grep tool with any regex pattern on the src directory.
Run the glob tool with any pattern on the src directory.

Expected Behavior:

The grep and glob tools should return the expected results without crashing.

Actual Behavior:

The tools are crashing with a "Maximum call stack size exceeded" error.

Impact:

The Architecture Guard is unable to perform its duties, which could lead to architectural drift and a decline in code quality.

Issue triaged by project owner:

State: Wont Do
Priority: N/A
Reason: This issue reports a grep/glob tool failure with "Maximum call stack size exceeded" — this is an external tooling issue in the agent's MCP tool environment, NOT a bug in the CleverAgents codebase. The grep and glob tools referenced here are MCP server tools used by the Architecture Guard agent, not part of the cleveragents-core source code.

The error "Maximum call stack size exceeded" is a Node.js runtime error in the MCP tool server, likely caused by deeply nested directory traversal or circular symlinks. This is an infrastructure/environment issue that should be reported to the MCP tool maintainers or resolved by adjusting the agent's working environment.

Closing as Wont Do — this is not an actionable issue for the cleveragents-core codebase.

State: Verified
Priority: Critical (retained — this affects agent tooling, not the product itself)
Milestone: v3.8.0
MoSCoW: Could Have — this is a bug in the agent tooling (grep/glob tools hitting stack overflow), not in the CleverAgents product itself. While it impacts agent productivity, it doesn't block any product milestone deliverable.
