Review Summary

This PR makes two related changes to the billing subscription timeout handling:

1. Timeout Change: Reverts timeout from 5 seconds back to 5 minutes (pkg/commands/billing/subscribe.go:78)
2. Error Handling: Converts timeout error from fmt.Errorf() to info logging with graceful exit (pkg/commands/billing/subscribe.go:85-87)

✅ Positive Aspects

Improved User Experience: The change transforms what was previously treated as an error condition into a graceful timeout with helpful guidance. Instead of showing an error when payment confirmation times out, users now see friendly informational messages.

Appropriate Timeout Duration: 5 minutes is much more reasonable than 5 seconds for payment processing, giving users adequate time to complete their payment flow.

Clear User Guidance: The timeout messages provide actionable next steps (eigenx billing status command) rather than just failing with an error.

🤔 Considerations

Error vs Info Logging: The key question is whether a payment timeout should be considered an error condition or normal behavior:

• Pro Info: Payment timeouts are often expected in payment flows due to user hesitation, browser issues, or slow processing. Users might abandon the flow intentionally.
• Pro Error: From a system perspective, failing to confirm payment completion within the expected timeframe could indicate integration issues or user friction.

Return Value Impact: Changing from return fmt.Errorf(...) to return nil means:

• CLI will exit with code 0 (success) instead of 1 (error)
• Automation/scripting depending on exit codes will see this as success
• This aligns with treating timeout as an expected, non-error condition

🔍 Technical Assessment

Code Quality: ✅ Clean implementation with clear messaging
Security: ✅ No security implications
Performance: ✅ No performance impact
Bug Risk: ✅ Low risk - straightforward logging change

💭 Recommendation

APPROVE - This change improves the user experience by treating payment timeouts as expected behavior rather than errors. The 5-minute timeout is appropriate, and the informational logging provides clear next steps for users.

The semantic change from error to info logging appears intentional and beneficial for this payment flow context where timeouts are common user behavior.
