benecaster_support_mode_log_limit
Filters the maximum number of benecaster_debug_log entries bundled into the diagnostic snapshot when an admin clicks “Send diagnostic log to Benecaster support”. Fires when building the snapshot inside POST /benecaster/v1/tools/support-mode/send-diagnostic-log, immediately before querying benecaster_debug_log for the most recent N rows. Default: 200.
The snapshot is gzipped before being POSTed to the license server, so payload size is roughly proportional to the number of entries — not a 1:1 byte relationship with the raw log rows. Verify with the Benecaster support team before raising the limit well past a few thousand entries, as unusually large snapshots may affect processing time.
Most useful for add-ons that emit a high volume of verbose entries when Support Mode is active. If your add-on’s debug output is concentrated at a specific point in time (e.g. during a feed sync or batch transcription run), raising the limit ensures that output is still present in the snapshot rather than being pushed out by more recent entries.

Values less than 1 are ignored — the endpoint falls back to the default of 200.
