Just went through a video. I also stumbled upon problem of getting arms stretched in animation mode. Double checked setup, bones set to stretch and constrained as shown. Everything works in CAT figure mode but not in Animation mode.

Both CAT Arm bones Stretching is set for Animation mode in Hierarchy. Arms work like with usual IK, no stretch.
