The members share one theme: the auxiliary LLM client's default timeout (reported as 30s) is described as too short for slow local inference, with reports of retry storms and compression problems. Several members are proposed changes that raise or auto-adjust the timeout, including detection of local endpoints and a 300s setting.

How this cluster was grouped
  • Link evidence (partly structural links): some members are connected by structural evidence (shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference); the rest are joined by an automated relevance judgement over their text.
  • Members outside that structural core may belong to a different underlying problem.
  • Pairwise link density 0.34: the share of item pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. 1.00 means every pair is linked.
