 * @param exec - the tool-execution context; supplies the session cwd and the abort signal.
 * @param toolName - `glob` or `grep`, used in error messages.
 * @param argv - the ripgrep arguments (every model value an unquoted argv element; no shell layer exists).
 * @param rawOutputMaxBytes - cap on the complete raw stdout the tool will parse.
 * @param graceMs - the seam's terminate-escalation grace period.
 * @param stderrMaxBytes - cap on the retained stderr diagnostic tail.
 * @returns the complete stdout, the zero-result flag, and the resolved workdir.
