The Tool calling job was getting cancelled at 16-17 minutes because
the macos-14 free runner generates ~10 tok/s on Qwen3.5-2B Q4_K_XL,
and the four SSE streams x 600 max_tokens add up to >12 minutes of
streaming alone -- with the model frequently entering a degenerate
output state at temperature=0.2 that only terminates at max_tokens.
Per-call adjustments:
- function calling tool: 600 -> 300 max_tokens, +180s timeout
- python tool SSE: 600 -> 256 max_tokens, +180s timeout
- terminal tool SSE: 600 -> 256 max_tokens, +180s timeout
- web_search SSE: 400 -> 200 max_tokens, +180s timeout
- thinking on/off: 300 -> 150 max_tokens, +180s timeout
- json_object response: 600 -> 200 max_tokens, +240s timeout
- plain capital-of-france: 400 -> 150 max_tokens, +240s timeout
Total worst-case streaming time drops from ~12 min to ~5 min,
leaving room for the model-load wait and SSE setup overhead.
