No matter what timeout value is set in openclaw.json the requests time out.

Summary

No matter what timeout value is set in openclaw.json the requests time out.

fi.: "timeoutSeconds": 4200 and "llm": {"idleTimeoutSeconds": 0 } //also tried with 4200

The gateway logs show: [agent/embedded] embedded run agent end: runId=79c71c1e-be05-487b-9eba-155ab590d0a4 isError=true model=qwen3.6:latest provider=ollama error=LLM request timed out. rawError=terminated | Body Timeout Error

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start openclaw with a slow local model
  2. Give him a long job
  3. It will timeout no matter what timeout gets declared in the config.

Expected behavior

The session doesn't timeout.

Actual behavior

The session timeouts.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue may be related to the LLM request timing out due to a potential mismatch between the configured timeout and the actual timeout behavior.

Guidance

  • Verify that the timeoutSeconds and idleTimeoutSeconds values in openclaw.json are being correctly read and applied by the OpenClaw application.
  • Check the OpenClaw documentation to ensure that the timeout configuration is correctly formatted and that there are no other timeout settings that may be overriding the specified values.
  • Investigate the ollama provider and qwen3.6 model to see if there are any known issues or limitations related to timeouts.
  • Test the application with a different model or provider to determine if the issue is specific to the current configuration.

Example

No code example is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient information about the codebase.

Notes

The issue may be related to a bug in the OpenClaw application or a compatibility issue with the ollama provider and qwen3.6 model. Further investigation is needed to determine the root cause.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by testing different timeout values and models to determine the optimal configuration for the application. This may involve increasing the timeout values or switching to a different model or provider.
