feat(providers): opt-in ZERO_RESPONSE_HEADER_TIMEOUT override for slow first-byte deployments - #1106

Conversation
…w first-byte deployments The shared HTTP transport waits at most 120s for a response header. A local model server that has to load a large model can take longer than that to produce the first byte (measured 1-5 minutes on a throttled local Ollama), so an otherwise-alive request is aborted. Add ZERO_RESPONSE_HEADER_TIMEOUT, mirroring ZERO_STREAM_IDLE_TIMEOUT: a Go duration or a bare number of seconds; "0", "off", "none" or "disabled" remove the limit; an unparseable or non-positive value falls back to the default instead of removing the limit. The default stays 120s, so nothing changes for anyone who does not set the variable. The constant and the resolver sit next to the idle-timeout equivalents in providerio. Checked against a throttled local Ollama: ZERO_RESPONSE_HEADER_TIMEOUT=5s fails at ~6.4s, =300s succeeds at ~223s (a request that would have hit the 120s ceiling).

Check the duration range before multiplying bare seconds.
On supported 64-bit targets, ZERO_RESPONSE_HEADER_TIMEOUT=18446744074 passes strconv.Atoi, but this multiplication wraps to 290.448384ms. The shared transport receives a short timeout instead of the fallback. time.Duration stores signed 64-bit nanoseconds, and integer overflow does not panic. (go.dev)
Reject seconds above the maximum representable duration before multiplying. Add regression cases for overflowing bare seconds.
Proposed fix
- if secs, err := strconv.Atoi(raw); err == nil && secs > 0 {
+ if secs, err := strconv.Atoi(raw); err == nil && secs > 0 &&
+ time.Duration(secs) <= time.Duration(1<<63-1)/time.Second {
return time.Duration(secs) * time.Second

Summary
Adds an opt-in
ZERO_RESPONSE_HEADER_TIMEOUTenvironment variable for the shared HTTP transport's response header timeout, as approved on the issue: it mirrorsZERO_STREAM_IDLE_TIMEOUTand leaves the default at 120s.5m,300s) or bare seconds (300);0,off,noneanddisabled(case-insensitive) remove the limit;providerio.Why: a local model server that must load a large model can take longer than 120s to send the first byte (measured 1-5 minutes on a throttled local Ollama), so an otherwise-alive request is aborted. Anyone who does not set the variable sees no change.
Verified against a throttled local Ollama:
