Read timeout too short for search-related tools on large vaults #88
Description
When running obsidian_simple_search or obsidian_complex_search via Docker MCP Toolkit on a large (>9000 notes) Obsidian vault, the request consistently fails with a read timeout after 6 seconds. Other endpoints, such as obsidian_list_files_in_vault work fine. The issue appears to be caused by a hardcoded Requests timeout (connect=3s, read=6s) in the Obsidian client, which may be too short for large or slow searches.
Error message:
Caught Exception. Error: Request failed: HTTPSConnectionPool(host=‘host.docker.internal’, port=27124): Read timed out. (read timeout=6)
Environment:
• macOS, Docker Desktop (Docker MCP Toolkit)
• Obsidian Local REST API (HTTPS, port 27124)
