Opening Orca's own checkout over SSH cannot list its files in one response frame. 22,617 tracked paths average 58 characters, so the 20,001-row page the client asks for serializes to 1,223,415 bytes — past `DISPATCHER_CONTROL_QUEUE_MAX_BYTES`, so `sendResponse` demotes it to the `legacy-response` lane, where an unrelated producer backlog can refuse it as an opaque `ResponseOverCapacity`. Break-even is around 49 characters of average path; any `packages/<name>/src/...` monorepo is over the line. Picking a ceiling to refuse at does not fix that, it just moves where it shows up and refuses listings that would have been delivered. `__streamResponse` already exists for exactly this on the git methods, and it is its own negotiation in both directions: an old client never sends it and gets the plain array on the legacy-response lane as before, and an old relay ignores it and answers plainly, which the client detects by the sentinel marker being absent. So fs.listFiles opts into it — no new method, no new opcode, nothing to advertise — and the size of a listing stops being a correctness question. The response-stream registry becomes one per relay, shared by FsHandler and GitHandler. A second registry is not an option and the header of git-response-stream.ts says why: a client keys reassembly on `streamId` alone, so two would hand out the same id and cross-feed chunks, and only the handler that registers `git.responseAck` can credit the window a pump parks on. Also declares `maxResults` on the runtime-RPC `files.listAll` and forwards it. The mechanism "the client names its cap, so a full page reads as truncation" was wired only on the Electron IPC hop; web and mobile were saved incidentally by `remoteFileContentBudget` defaulting the cap inside `listRuntimeFiles`. A new optional field is additive in both directions (wire rule 1). The new Docker-gated spec is claimed by run-ssh-docker-e2e.mjs. The sharded e2e lanes set no ORCA_E2E_SSH_DOCKER, so a Docker-gated spec that no runner names self-skips everywhere and still reports green — pr-e2e-gate-contract enforces that. Closes #12547
