🎯 What: This PR addresses a security vulnerability where query_text was accepted without any length validation.

⚠️ Risk: Without validation, an excessively large input string could be passed to the embedding model and the vector database, potentially causing high CPU/Memory usage or application crashes (Denial of Service). It could also exceed the token limits of the LLM.

🛡️ Solution: Added a validation step after parsing arguments in query.py that checks if query_text exceeds 1000 characters. If it does, the program exits with a descriptive error message using parser.error().


PR created automatically by Jules for task 14188642868390699861 started by @Kshitij-KS

Enforce a maximum length of 1000 characters for the query_text input
to prevent potential resource exhaustion or DoS attacks.
