auto-merge polls molecule-tests with MAX_WAIT=600 inside a timeout-minutes: 10 job, but the distributed molecule suite takes ~25 minutes — every synchronize run timed out and merges only succeeded via manual failed-job reruns. MAX_WAIT=2400 and timeout-minutes: 50 give the wait loop room to see molecule finish.

GRM-169: Fix auto-merge timeout — molecule wait exceeds 10-min job cap
Problem
The auto-merge job in ci.yml polls molecule-tests status with
MAX_WAIT=600 (10 minutes) inside a job capped at
timeout-minutes: 10. The molecule suite takes ~25 minutes under the
4-runner distribution. Result: every pull_request synchronize run of
auto-merge exhausts MAX_WAIT, prints Timed out waiting for molecule tests, and fails — observed on PR #275 (run 5988) where all molecule
jobs were green but auto-merge died before they finished. The merge
only completed via a manual rerun-failed-jobs call after molecule was
already green.
Approach
REQ-1: Raise the molecule wait budget in .gitea/workflows/ci.yml so it
exceeds the observed suite duration: MAX_WAIT=2400 (40 minutes — ~1.6x
the observed 25-minute suite) and the job timeout-minutes to 50
(wait budget plus setup/post overhead).
REQ-2: No other behavior changes — the wait loop, success/failure/skipped classification, and merge semantics stay identical. The job still runs on every pull_request event; it simply no longer aborts early.
Test Plan
make workflow-lint(actionlint) passes on the edited file.make workflow-dryrunwhere available.- Next PR's auto-merge run waits past the 10-minute mark and merges after molecule turns green (verified on a subsequent PR).
Deploy Plan
Merge via auto-merge — ironically exercised by this very PR's auto-merge run: it must wait for this PR's own molecule jobs, demonstrating the fix in production immediately.
Rollback Plan
Revert the two changed lines. Risk of keeping the fix: none — a longer wait can only extend a job that was previously guaranteed to fail.
Acceptance Criteria
MAX_WAITraised to 2400 in the auto-merge wait loop.timeout-minutesraised to 50 on the auto-merge job.make workflow-lintpasses.
