 `hash = first 32 hex chars of sha256(utf8(app_id) || raw file bytes)` — see `hashAsset()` in `src/core/site/manifest.ts`. The app-id salt is a cache-poisoning defense: a tenant can only produce hash collisions with its own files.
 
-The output directory is walked with `globby` (`**/*`, dotfiles included, symlinks not followed). `.assetsignore` at the root is honored via globby's `ignoreFiles`, which parses it with the `ignore` package — the same library wrangler uses — so it gets real gitignore semantics: anchoring, directory patterns, `**`, literal braces/extglobs, and **negation** (`!.dev.vars.example` after `.dev.vars*`). Do not translate the patterns by hand, and do not pass globby's `ignore` option alongside `ignoreFiles`: globby globs for ignore files using that option, so it would then find none and silently apply no patterns at all. `.assetsignore` itself, `wrangler.json`, and `.dev.vars` are dropped from the results by name instead. Files over 25 MiB fail with a per-file error; total file count is capped at 100,000. Manifest keys are `/`-prefixed forward-slash paths.

There is no per-file size limit — files are hashed by streaming them in chunks, so an asset is never held whole in memory at manifest time; total file count is capped at 100,000. Manifest keys are `/`-prefixed forward-slash paths.
 
 Content types are deliberately **not** derived client-side: the server decides each asset's Content-Type, signs it into the presigned URL, and the CLI echoes it verbatim — deriving our own value would 403 on any mapping difference.
