PR Review: Increase brew outdated timeout from 15s to 60s

• Gather context and read changed files
• Review against team checklist
• Post final review

This is a minimal, well-reasoned fix. Here's the full checklist review:

Code Quality & Standards

• Follows Basic Memory coding conventions — simple constant change, no structural impact
• Python 3.12+ type annotations — not applicable (constant definition)
• SQLAlchemy 2.0 / FastAPI / Typer conventions — not applicable
• 100-character line length maintained
• No commented-out code

Testing & Documentation

• No new functions or methods — no new unit tests required
• 100% test coverage maintained — the constant feeds directly into _run_subprocess via timeout_seconds; existing tests mock subprocess calls and aren't sensitive to the constant value
• No documentation updates needed for a timeout constant change

Basic Memory Architecture

• No MCP tool changes
• No database/migration changes
• Preserves local-first architecture
• No knowledge graph impact

Security & Performance

• No secrets or credentials
• No new input validation surface
• Error handling unchanged (TimeoutError is already caught in run_auto_update)
• The longer timeout is appropriate: this is a background, non-interactive check

Compatibility

• No file path comparisons
• No emoji/unicode in console or log output

Summary

Approved. The change is correct and safe.

The 60s value is proportionate relative to the other timeouts in the same file (UV_UPGRADE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 180, BREW_UPGRADE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 600). The brew outdated check runs in the background during interactive CLI sessions only (maybe_run_periodic_auto_update returns early for non-interactive contexts), so a slower network won't block users.

One minor observation: the constant BREW_OUTDATED_TIMEOUT_SECONDS is only referenced in _check_homebrew_update_available (line 133) and nowhere else in the codebase — no other files need updating.
