Description
Type: Bug
If a build takes longer than 15 seconds the agent gives up, rewrites its build request and tries again (which obviously also fails). It should just wait for the build to finish (however long that takes).
This blocks any workflow that requires the agent to run tests (and that also takes longer than 15 seconds)
Steps to reproduce:
- Have a build that takes more than 15 seconds
- Give the prompt
- Could you run the tests in [redacted] and resolve any failures
- AI correctly starts running the test
- 15 seconds goes by
Expected results:
- AI continues to wait
Actual results:
- AI gets bored and says "The tests are taking a long time to run. Let me check if there are specific test configurations or if I can run them more efficiently"
- The AI comes up with another command line to run that won't be any quicker
- AI gets bored again and gives up on running the test, declares that everything is probably fine already
I don't understand why there is any limit on how long it will wait, surely the AI isn't "active" again until the run finishes and it can look at the results
