 **The docsync fault-callback replays and the runShadow deadline test stop failing on loaded remote pregate VMs.**
 
 ### Fixed
-- **Docsync fault-callback replays** (`test/helpers/docsync-fault-callbacks.ts` and its three wrappers): each replay in the generated child now has a 30 s limit instead of bun's 5 s default, and each wrapper's limit is that per-replay limit times its replay count plus one. A replay spawns 30 to 40 real actor, hook and git processes. That takes about 1.3 s on CI and up to 4.9 s on an idle 4-core machine, and it ran past 5 s on GSTA-234's remote pregate for #3892. With 8 busy loops on 4 cores, main fails all 12 legacy-control replays at 5 s, and this branch passes all 12 (172 s for the whole wrapper).

 - **`test/autoplan-shadow.test.ts` "one deadline covers the call and its retry"**: the first call now has 1 s of room inside the deadline instead of 300 ms. The time limit allows 2.4 s past the deadline before it would match an unshared retry, up from 0.9 s; the remote failure ran 1.06 s past. The test still requires the retry to be cut (p1 malformed) and the call to end before an unshared retry could finish.
