When no explicit timeout is configured (HonchoClientConfig.timeout,
honcho.timeout / requestTimeout, or HONCHO_TIMEOUT), get_honcho_client
previously constructed the SDK with no timeout kwarg, letting the
underlying httpx client hang indefinitely if the Honcho backend
became unreachable mid-request.
This is a silent-failure hazard on the post-response path of
run_conversation: the memory_manager.sync_all() / queue_prefetch_all()
calls fire after the agent has already generated its final reply, so
a stalled Honcho request blocks run_conversation from returning.
The gateway never logs "response ready" and never delivers the
response to the platform (Telegram, etc.), even though the text is
already saved to the session file.
Repro: unplug the network or block app.honcho.dev mid-turn after
the model has produced its final message. Without this change,
_run_agent never returns. With it, the call aborts after 30s,
run_conversation returns, and the gateway delivers the response
(Honcho sync failure is logged and swallowed as before).
The default applies only when nothing is configured, so any
deployment that has explicitly set timeout / HONCHO_TIMEOUT /
honcho.timeout / honcho.requestTimeout keeps its existing value.
Self-hosted deployments that genuinely need a longer ceiling can
still override via any of those knobs.
