Dependency resolution timeout

Error message

Dependency resolution timeout

What it means

Recursive package dependency resolution exceeded its wall-clock budget: resolvePackage checks performance.now() against the timeout while walking each package's dependencies, and the cumulative traversal (or a pathological/near-cyclic dependency graph) passed the configured deadline. This guards against infinite or exponential resolution loops.

Solutions

1. Increase the configured timeout for long-running operations, or split the work into smaller units.
2. Retry with exponential backoff; if persistent, inspect the downstream service for stalls.
