Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000
  • with no aiTimeout, it rejects at the default

Verified the first fails without the wiring. Full package suite: 14 files, 221 passed, 1 todo.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added configurable timeouts for individual AI translation and pluralization requests.
    • Increased the default AI request timeout from 60 to 120 seconds.
    • Custom timeout settings can be specified in translation configuration, with specialized pluralization settings taking precedence.
  • Documentation

    • Documented timeout behavior, including that timed-out requests may continue running and incur charges.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom timeouts, configuration propagation, precedence rules, and updated defaults.

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 1ee7a

The change makes AI request timeouts configurable and raises the default to 120 seconds. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the documentation should clarify the doubled pluralization timeout and that timed-out requests may still be billed; these are bounded follow-ups rather than runtime blockers.

Document that timed-out requests can still incur charges.

The API documentation states that a timeout does not cancel the AI request and that the request can still be billed. Add this behavior here so users do not lower aiTimeout expecting cancellation or cost avoidance.

Clarify the effective pluralization timeout.

This documentation defines aiTimeout as the batch timeout. PluralizationService doubles every configured value at line 170. Therefore, aiTimeout: 300_000 produces a 600000ms timeout.

Describe this field as a base timeout, or stop doubling an explicit pluralization value.

Proposed documentation fix
- * Milliseconds to wait for a pluralization batch. Defaults to twice the- * translation timeout, since a batch asks the model for more at once.+ * Base timeout in milliseconds for a pluralization AI request.+ * A pluralization batch uses twice this value because it sends more data.

Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000

Clarify the effective pluralization timeout.

This documentation defines aiTimeout as the batch timeout. PluralizationService doubles every configured value at line 170. Therefore, aiTimeout: 300_000 produces a 600000ms timeout.

Describe this field as a base timeout, or stop doubling an explicit pluralization value.

Proposed documentation fix
- * Milliseconds to wait for a pluralization batch. Defaults to twice the- * translation timeout, since a batch asks the model for more at once.+ * Base timeout in milliseconds for a pluralization AI request.+ * A pluralization batch uses twice this value because it sends more data.

Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000
  • with no aiTimeout, it rejects at the default

Verified the first fails without the wiring. Full package suite: 14 files, 221 passed, 1 todo.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added configurable timeouts for individual AI translation and pluralization requests.
    • Increased the default AI request timeout from 60 to 120 seconds.
    • Custom timeout settings can be specified in translation configuration, with specialized pluralization settings taking precedence.
  • Documentation

    • Documented timeout behavior, including that timed-out requests may continue running and incur charges.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom timeouts, configuration propagation, precedence rules, and updated defaults.

Tests default configuration, propagation, precedence, custom timeout enforcement, and default timeout fallback.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 1ee7a

The change makes AI request timeouts configurable and raises the default to 120 seconds. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the documentation should clarify the doubled pluralization timeout and that timed-out requests may still be billed; these are bounded follow-ups rather than runtime blockers.

Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000
  • with no aiTimeout, it rejects at the default

Verified the first fails without the wiring. Full package suite: 14 files, 221 passed, 1 todo.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added configurable timeouts for individual AI translation and pluralization requests.
    • Increased the default AI request timeout from 60 to 120 seconds.
    • Custom timeout settings can be specified in translation configuration, with specialized pluralization settings taking precedence.
  • Documentation

    • Documented timeout behavior, including that timed-out requests may continue running and incur charges.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom timeouts, configuration propagation, precedence rules, and updated defaults.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 1ee7a

The change makes AI request timeouts configurable and raises the default to 120 seconds. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the documentation should clarify the doubled pluralization timeout and that timed-out requests may still be billed; these are bounded follow-ups rather than runtime blockers.

Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000
  • with no aiTimeout, it rejects at the default

Verified the first fails without the wiring. Full package suite: 14 files, 221 passed, 1 todo.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added configurable timeouts for individual AI translation and pluralization requests.
    • Increased the default AI request timeout from 60 to 120 seconds.
    • Custom timeout settings can be specified in translation configuration, with specialized pluralization settings taking precedence.
  • Documentation

    • Documented timeout behavior, including that timed-out requests may continue running and incur charges.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom timeouts, configuration propagation, precedence rules, and updated defaults.

The change makes AI request timeouts configurable and raises the default to 120 seconds. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the documentation should clarify the doubled pluralization timeout and that timed-out requests may still be billed; these are bounded follow-ups rather than runtime blockers.

Clarify the effective pluralization timeout.

This documentation defines aiTimeout as the batch timeout. PluralizationService doubles every configured value at line 170. Therefore, aiTimeout: 300_000 produces a 600000ms timeout.

Describe this field as a base timeout, or stop doubling an explicit pluralization value.

Proposed documentation fix
- * Milliseconds to wait for a pluralization batch. Defaults to twice the- * translation timeout, since a batch asks the model for more at once.+ * Base timeout in milliseconds for a pluralization AI request.+ * A pluralization batch uses twice this value because it sends more data.

Document that timed-out requests can still incur charges.

The API documentation states that a timeout does not cancel the AI request and that the request can still be billed. Add this behavior here so users do not lower aiTimeout expecting cancellation or cost avoidance.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Clarify the effective pluralization timeout.

This documentation defines aiTimeout as the batch timeout. PluralizationService doubles every configured value at line 170. Therefore, aiTimeout: 300_000 produces a 600000ms timeout.

Describe this field as a base timeout, or stop doubling an explicit pluralization value.

Proposed documentation fix
- * Milliseconds to wait for a pluralization batch. Defaults to twice the- * translation timeout, since a batch asks the model for more at once.+ * Base timeout in milliseconds for a pluralization AI request.+ * A pluralization batch uses twice this value because it sends more data.

Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000
  • with no aiTimeout, it rejects at the default

Verified the first fails without the wiring. Full package suite: 14 files, 221 passed, 1 todo.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added configurable timeouts for individual AI translation and pluralization requests.
    • Increased the default AI request timeout from 60 to 120 seconds.
    • Custom timeout settings can be specified in translation configuration, with specialized pluralization settings taking precedence.
  • Documentation

    • Documented timeout behavior, including that timed-out requests may continue running and incur charges.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom timeouts, configuration propagation, precedence rules, and updated defaults.

Tests default configuration, propagation, precedence, custom timeout enforcement, and default timeout fallback.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 1ee7a

The change makes AI request timeouts configurable and raises the default to 120 seconds. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the documentation should clarify the doubled pluralization timeout and that timed-out requests may still be billed; these are bounded follow-ups rather than runtime blockers.

Document that timed-out requests can still incur charges.

The API documentation states that a timeout does not cancel the AI request and that the request can still be billed. Add this behavior here so users do not lower aiTimeout expecting cancellation or cost avoidance.

Clarify the effective pluralization timeout.

This documentation defines aiTimeout as the batch timeout. PluralizationService doubles every configured value at line 170. Therefore, aiTimeout: 300_000 produces a 600000ms timeout.

Describe this field as a base timeout, or stop doubling an explicit pluralization value.

Proposed documentation fix
- * Milliseconds to wait for a pluralization batch. Defaults to twice the- * translation timeout, since a batch asks the model for more at once.+ * Base timeout in milliseconds for a pluralization AI request.+ * A pluralization batch uses twice this value because it sends more data.

Closes#2053.

Problem

The timeout for a single AI translation request is hardcoded at 60 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API). It is not enough when the build runs somewhere with slow network to the model, such as CI, or when a chunk carries enough text that the model needs longer, and a compiler chunk goes to the model as one call regardless of how much text it holds.

The documented workaround in #2053 is patching the compiled file inside node_modules:

RUN sed -i 's/AI_API: 6e4/AI_API: 3e5/' node_modules/@lingo.dev/compiler/build/utils/timeout.mjs

Change

  • aiTimeout is a new plugin option, threaded from LingoConfig through TranslationService into LingoTranslator, and applied on both the Lingo.dev Engine and the direct-LLM paths.
  • The default moves from 60000 to 120000. DEFAULT_TIMEOUTS.AI_API stays as the fallback for callers that pass nothing, and is raised to match.
  • Public surface needs no separate change: LingoPluginOptions and LingoNextPluginOptions are aliases of PartialLingoConfig, so Vite, webpack and Next pick the option up.
lingoCompilerPlugin({sourceRoot: "./src",sourceLocale: "en",targetLocales: ["zh","de"],aiTimeout: 300_000,});

Why the default moved rather than staying at 60s

A request that times out is not cancelled. withTimeout is a Promise.race, so the underlying call keeps running server-side, completes, and is billed, while its result is discarded. A timeout that fires too eagerly therefore costs money, not just build time. Waiting longer makes it more likely the caller actually receives the work it paid for.

This does not make the timeout harmless, and this PR does not claim to fix the billing side. Cancelling the abandoned request needs the signal that LingoDotDevEngine.localizeObject already accepts as its fourth parameter and threads into fetch; wiring that up is separate work.

Tests

Two, driving the real withTimeout through the real translator with only the SDK engine stubbed to hang, and fake timers advancing the clock:

  • a caller-supplied aiTimeout of 300000 is still pending at the 120000 mark and rejects at 300000
  • with no aiTimeout, it rejects at the default

Verified the first fails without the wiring. Full package suite: 14 files, 221 passed, 1 todo.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added configurable timeouts for individual AI translation and pluralization requests.
    • Increased the default AI request timeout from 60 to 120 seconds.
    • Custom timeout settings can be specified in translation configuration, with specialized pluralization settings taking precedence.
  • Documentation

    • Documented timeout behavior, including that timed-out requests may continue running and incur charges.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for custom timeouts, configuration propagation, precedence rules, and updated defaults.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 1ee7a

The change makes AI request timeouts configurable and raises the default to 120 seconds. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the documentation should clarify the doubled pluralization timeout and that timed-out requests may still be billed; these are bounded follow-ups rather than runtime blockers.

The comments at Line [118] and Line [158] still say “Times out after 60 seconds”. These calls now use the optional aiTimeout and a 120_000 ms fallback. Update both comments so the implementation and documentation describe the same behavior.

Clarify the effective pluralization timeout.

This documentation defines aiTimeout as the batch timeout. PluralizationService doubles every configured value at line 170. Therefore, aiTimeout: 300_000 produces a 600000ms timeout.

Describe this field as a base timeout, or stop doubling an explicit pluralization value.

Proposed documentation fix
- * Milliseconds to wait for a pluralization batch. Defaults to twice the- * translation timeout, since a batch asks the model for more at once.+ * Base timeout in milliseconds for a pluralization AI request.+ * A pluralization batch uses twice this value because it sends more data.

requests, accurately reflecting the effective timeout for explicitly configured
values.
