Re: Timeout reached and Timeout level

Great, thanks a lot for letting me know. I'll do my best to support the agentic workflow, the goal is you just tell your vision and the docs link to plugin proc and you get a good result on first try. The current documentation does not seem to be 100% accurate to support this...
