 | **Never throws** | Nothing in the client throws. A server that is down, slow, or rejecting the key — or a machine with no `curl` — is a dropped report, not an exception or a crash in your program. Drops are passed to the optional `Logger` (a `std::function<void(const std::string&)>`, last constructor argument), otherwise not mentioned at all. |
 | **Bounded** | At most 256 reports wait to be sent; past that, new ones are dropped. A trace server that is unreachable for a week costs a few kilobytes, not your memory. |
 | **`close()` drains** | Reports already queued get up to the client timeout (5 s total) to be sent before the thread stops, so a CLI that reports and exits at once does not lose its event. Still bounded: an unreachable server delays exit by at most the timeout — a request still in flight then is abandoned and its `curl` process killed. `close(seconds)` takes a shorter bound. Once `close()` returns, the `Logger` is never called again. |
-| **Fits the server's limits** | Names and tag keys/values are cut to 255 bytes (never mid-character), at most 32 tags are sent, blank tag keys are dropped, invalid UTF-8 becomes U+FFFD, and NaN or infinite values are left out — so a report is never rejected as a whole for one bad field. |
