Summary

Increases DEFAULT_BACKEND_READINESS_TIMEOUT in apps/desktop/src/backend/DesktopBackendManager.ts from 1 minute to 3 minutes.

Fixes#4535

Why

When the packaged server bundle is loaded through /mnt/c, WSL backend startup can take well over the current 60-second readiness window (~117 seconds measured on my system — see this comment). The backend eventually becomes healthy, but the desktop app has already stopped probing and stays stuck on "Connecting to WSL…" forever.

This only raises the maximum wait: readiness polling still resolves as soon as the endpoint responds, so fast backends connect immediately as before. Precedent: #1979 previously raised this timeout from 10s to 30s, and other remote backend paths already use three-minute startup/readiness windows.

Note this is a pragmatic mitigation — it does not address the underlying /mnt/c filesystem performance problem for the WSL bundle.

Verification

  • Reproduced the timeout locally on WSL and confirmed T3 Code connects successfully to the WSL backend with this change (backend became ready at ~117s).
  • pnpm typecheck (apps/desktop) passes.
  • pnpm test src/backend/DesktopBackendManager.test.ts — 12 tests pass.
  • Lint and format checks pass on the changed file.

Note

Low Risk
Single constant change to startup polling duration with no auth, data, or behavioral changes beyond tolerating slower backend boot.

Overview
Raises DEFAULT_BACKEND_READINESS_TIMEOUT in DesktopBackendManager from 1 minute to 3 minutes so the desktop app keeps polling /.well-known/t3/environment long enough for slow WSL backends (e.g. server bundle on /mnt/c) that can take well over 60s to become ready.

Polling still ends as soon as the endpoint responds, so fast local backends connect immediately; only the maximum wait is longer.

Note

Increase backend readiness timeout to 3 minutes in DesktopBackendManager

Raises DEFAULT_BACKEND_READINESS_TIMEOUT from 1 minute to 3 minutes in DesktopBackendManager.ts to reduce premature timeout failures during backend startup.

fix(desktop): increase backend readiness timeout to 3 minutes
5405ecd
WSL backend startup can exceed the one-minute readiness deadline when the
packaged server bundle is loaded through /mnt/c, leaving the app stuck on
"Connecting to WSL..." even though the backend eventually becomes healthy.
Raise the default readiness timeout to 3 minutes; polling still resolves
immediately once the endpoint responds, so fast backends are unaffected.

Summary
Increases DEFAULT_BACKEND_READINESS_TIMEOUT in apps/desktop/src/backend/DesktopBackendManager.ts from 1 minute to 3 minutes.
Fixes#4535
Why
When the packaged server bundle is loaded through /mnt/c, WSL backend startup can take well over the current 60-second readiness window (~117 seconds measured on my system — see this comment). The backend eventually becomes healthy, but the desktop app has already stopped probing and stays stuck on "Connecting to WSL…" forever.
This only raises the maximum wait: readiness polling still resolves as soon as the endpoint responds, so fast backends connect immediately as before. Precedent: #1979 previously raised this timeout from 10s to 30s, and other remote backend paths already use three-minute startup/readiness windows.
Note this is a pragmatic mitigation — it does not address the underlying /mnt/c filesystem performance problem for the WSL bundle.
Verification
  • Reproduced the timeout locally on WSL and confirmed T3 Code connects successfully to the WSL backend with this change (backend became ready at ~117s).
  • pnpm typecheck (apps/desktop) passes.
  • pnpm test src/backend/DesktopBackendManager.test.ts — 12 tests pass.
  • Lint and format checks pass on the changed file.
🤖 Generated with Claude Code
Note
Low Risk

Single constant change to startup polling duration with no auth, data, or behavioral changes beyond tolerating slower backend boot.
Overview

Raises DEFAULT_BACKEND_READINESS_TIMEOUT in DesktopBackendManager from 1 minute to 3 minutes so the desktop app keeps polling /.well-known/t3/environment long enough for slow WSL backends (e.g. server bundle on /mnt/c) that can take well over 60s to become ready.
Polling still ends as soon as the endpoint responds, so fast local backends connect immediately; only the maximum wait is longer.

fix(desktop): increase backend readiness timeout to 3 minutes
5405ecd
WSL backend startup can exceed the one-minute readiness deadline when the
packaged server bundle is loaded through /mnt/c, leaving the app stuck on
"Connecting to WSL..." even though the backend eventually becomes healthy.
Raise the default readiness timeout to 3 minutes; polling still resolves
immediately once the endpoint responds, so fast backends are unaffected.

Verdict: Approved ae3d2f1
This PR increases a backend readiness timeout constant from 1 to 3 minutes. This is a low-risk configuration tweak with no logic changes - timeout increases simply allow more time before failing.
