Increase timeouts to 45 minutes for plan and review-gate

jul-sh · jul-sh · commit 17433a72cae1 · 2026-04-03T01:36:53.000-04:00
The default/previous timeouts were too short, causing commands to be
killed mid-run. Strengthened the prompt instruction and bumped the
review-gate hook timeout from 10min to 45min.

-## Important: Timeouts
+## CRITICAL — Bash Timeout
 
-All Bash calls to codex scripts (`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/plan.sh`, `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/config.sh`, and any `codex exec` invocations) can take a long time. **Always use a 45-minute timeout (2700000ms)** for these calls by setting the `timeout` parameter on the Bash tool.
+**YOU MUST set `timeout: 2700000` on EVERY Bash tool call in this skill.** This includes `plan.sh`, `config.sh`, `codex exec`, and any other shell command. The default 2-minute timeout is far too short — these commands routinely run 10–30 minutes. If you use the default timeout, the command WILL be killed mid-run and the user's work will be lost. There are NO exceptions.
