Proposed fix: [Warp Oz] infrastructure_timeout "The task exceeded the maximum allowed runtime and was terminated." — often setup commands or MCP servers waiting on input
Recommended action: Split work into shorter tasks and remove interactive/blocking steps from setup commands and MCP servers.
Option: Split work into shorter tasks and remove interactive/blocking steps from setup commands and MCP servers. [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Long or hung cloud agent tasks
Steps:
1. Review setup commands and MCP servers for prompts/long downloads.
2. Break the task into smaller subtasks.
Expected: The error no longer appears.
