Javascript SDK browser examples not working: 413 error

When I try to run any of the UI examples in splunk-sdk-javascript-1.2.1, the server returns error 413. I started the node server: "node sdkdo examples". Then I ran the timeline UI example in Chrome, after setting the login info to the correct Splunk password and version 6.0. The developer console in Chrome showed that the http request was:

 localhost:6969/proxy/services/search/jobs/1386894990.1173?output_mode=json

and the return status was 413 (Request Entity Too Large). So obviously the first http call, to get the SID of the search job, succeeded. If I take the same SID and submit it in the browser like this:

localhost:8089/services/search/jobs/1386894990.1173?output_mode=json

then the search succeeds and I get valid results back. What's going on?
