Subject: [PATCH] test(auq-compliance): stretch budgets to fit /plan-ceo-review
 Step 0F
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

/plan-ceo-review's Step 0F mode-selection AskUserQuestion fires after the
preamble drains: gbrain sync probe, telemetry log, learnings search,
review-readiness dashboard read, recent-artifacts recovery. On a fresh
PTY boot under concurrent test contention (max-concurrency 15), those
bash blocks sometimes consume 200-300 seconds before the first AUQ
renders. The previous 300s budget was tight enough that markersSeen=0
on both main and the contributor wave branch — the model was still
working through preamble when the harness gave up.

Composed budgets:
  - poll budget: 300s → 540s
  - PTY session timeout: 360s → 600s
  - bun test wrapper timeout: 420s → 660s

Each layer outlasts the one inside it. The harness still polls every
2s and breaks as soon as ELI10 + Recommendation + cursor are all
visible, so a fast Step 0F still finishes in seconds.
