+## User Input Tolerance
+
+- Prefer completing a workflow with the user's supplied values over rejecting
+  them because they fall outside recommended, UI-advertised, or quality-oriented
+  limits. If the downstream implementation can consume an input, pass it
+  through unchanged even when the result may be poor. For example, do not reject
+  or truncate additional reference images merely because a node advertises a
+  smaller recommended maximum.
+- Do not add validation errors solely to prevent degraded, nonsensical, or
+  low-quality model output. A bad result is preferable to failing an otherwise
+  executable workflow.
+- Resize, pad, clamp, normalize, or otherwise adapt user input only when passing
+  it through unchanged would make the existing model or underlying operation
+  fail. Make the smallest adjustment needed to keep execution running; do not
+  add a model-level validation failure merely to justify changing the input.
+- This permissive policy does not override security boundaries such as path
+  containment, or integrity checks required to load model formats and
+  checkpoints safely.

 ## Nodes and User-Facing Behavior
 
 - Follow existing node conventions: `INPUT_TYPES`, `RETURN_TYPES`, `FUNCTION`,
