## Open now

- #105287: ntfy adapter truncates by characters, but ntfy's message limit is bytes
- PR #105309: fix(ntfy): keep non-ASCII replies within the message limit
- PR #105313: fix(ntfy): enforce the message body limit in UTF-8 bytes (#105287)

These items address a bug where the ntfy adapter truncated messages by character count rather than byte count, which is incorrect given ntfy's byte-based message size limit. The work focuses on ensuring non-ASCII content is also kept within the byte limit.
