Checker results sometimes contain null bytes (\x00) in string fields like output. PostgreSQL rejects these when saving to text columns, causing an ArgumentError: "string contains null byte". Add a before_action filter that strips null bytes from result params before processing. Sentry: https://ombu-ai.sentry.io/issues/7361326341/
