Agent calling tool many times when tool respond with more than 10 seconds

[rsaulo]

Describe the bug
When the agent call a tool and does not receive a responde within 10 seconds, the agent call the cool again, generation problem for tools that need more than 10 seconds to respond.

To Reproduce
Just call a tool that respond with more than 10 seconds.

Expected behavior
We need a parameter to configure the timeout in seconds, this cannot be fixed in code.

Additional context
The problem is in the line McpSessionManager class :

McpSyncClient client =
McpClient.sync(transport)
.requestTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(10))
.capabilities(ClientCapabilities.builder().build())
.build();

@vorburger : I am also facing the same issue when using Function tool call. My tool call downloads got repo and since it takes more time to download the agent calls the tool multiple times ending in kind of infinite loop.

I tried both functional tool call and long function tool call both getting same multiple calls.

I am using Google ask 1.18

How to stop agent to wait for response from tool before triggering the next call?

I tied in instruction of the agent but no luck,

Please help as this blocks my multi agent system,

Note: I am not using any mcp tools it is just normal python call that runs longer.

Thanks,
Vasanth
