Pull request overview
Updates the Q agentic workflow to allow longer Copilot investigations to complete without hitting the prior 15-minute execution ceiling.
Changes:
- Increased Q workflow
timeout-minutesfrom 15 to 30 in the source workflow definition. - Recompiled the generated workflow lockfile so the Copilot execution step uses the updated 30-minute timeout.
- Updated the generated runtime timeout env (
GH_AW_TIMEOUT_MINUTES) to match.

The Q workflow is failing on long investigations because the Copilot execution step hits the 15-minute ceiling. This change raises the workflow timeout budget so runs can complete instead of terminating mid-analysis.
