Proposed fix: [browser-use] 'Page.navigate() timed out after 20.0s (...) for <url>' — CDP navigate call itself capped at nav_timeout (default 20 s) on heavy sites
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: Pass a larger nav_timeout where the API allows, retry the action, or pre-warm/cache the site; check network/proxy latency in the container.
Option: Pass a larger nav_timeout where the API allows, retry the action, or pre-warm/cache the site; check network/proxy latency in the container. [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Agent navigate/go_to_url on slow or heavy pages
Steps:
1. Retry navigation.
2. Increase nav_timeout in custom code paths.
3. Check proxy/DNS latency.
Expected: The error no longer appears.
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
