Problem Statement

Quite often I have builds (or a long command) that claude cli tries to run and then gets cancelled because it has a timeout. In some cases this means starting from scratch. It would be nice to know how long in advance before I give permission so I know not to let it run a command with a timeout.

Proposed Solution

  • When asking permission to run a bash command, display the timeout for the command (perhaps give an option to run with no timeout or specify one)
  • When running a bash command, display how long the timeout is.
