📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Added configurable per-step timeouts from 1 to 60 minutes.
  • Applied configured timeouts to analysis, execution, verification, and escalation operations.
  • Added a five-minute default when no timeout is specified.
  • Preserved additional startup time for sandbox readiness.

• Tests

  • Added coverage verifying timeout conversion, propagation, defaults, and custom values.

Walkthrough

Changes

The change adds optional per-step timeouts from API validation through reconciliation and sandbox execution. Default timeout behavior remains five minutes, while sandbox startup keeps a separate readiness bound.

Agentic timeout propagation

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Timeout contracts and caller interfaces api/v1alpha1/agenticrun_types.go, controller/agenticrun/agent.go	AgenticRunStep accepts timeoutMinutes values from 1 to 60. Agent caller methods accept time.Duration.
Timeout resolution and reconciliation wiring controller/agenticrun/resolve.go, controller/agenticrun/handlers.go, controller/agenticrun/reconciler_test.go	Resolved steps retain configured timeout minutes. Analysis, execution, verification, and escalation pass converted durations to agent callers. Reconciliation tests verify a 30-minute timeout.
Sandbox timeout application and validation controller/agenticrun/sandbox_agent.go, controller/agenticrun/sandbox_agent_test.go	Sandbox startup uses the default readiness timeout. Client creation and agent execution use the configured operation timeout. Tests cover default, custom, and propagated timeouts.

Inline comments:
In `@api/v1alpha1/agenticrun_types.go`:
- Around line 273-276: Update the comment for timeoutMinutes to describe only
the agent call timeout; remove the claim that it controls sandbox startup and
state that pod readiness uses the fixed five-minute defaultSandboxTimeout.

In `@controller/agenticrun/handlers.go`:
- Line 697: Preserve the original TimeoutMinutes when rebuilding step for an
escalation override near the escalation handling flow, so stepTimeout(step) in
the Agent.Escalate call receives the configured analysis timeout instead of
defaulting to five minutes. Update only the step reconstruction logic and keep
the existing escalation behavior unchanged.

In `@controller/agenticrun/sandbox_agent_test.go`:
- Line 764: Handle the error returned by fc.Create in the test setup, failing
the test through the existing test assertion mechanism if creation fails; if the
created object is unused, remove this setup instead. Do not ignore the return
value except for scheme-registration calls.
