docs(agents): mandate command timeouts for all remote operations

Add NON-NEGOTIABLE rule: every remote command must be wrapped with
timeout (30s reads, 120s standard, 300s deployments). A hung command
is a failed command — investigate root cause, never blindly retry.

- **Prefer Unix utilities (awk, sed, grep, cut, tr, etc.) for file editing and text processing** over built-in edit tools when feasible. Harness edit tools can be unreliable with whitespace/indentation; Unix tools are deterministic and exact. Use them for surgical edits, bulk substitutions, and structured text extraction.
- **Farm work out to deterministic tooling:** linters, LSPs, formatters, test runners. If an LSP is wired up, use it; otherwise pull a Docker image and lint inside it. Do not parse huge code blocks in context.
- **Use sub-agents as subcontractors** (see BASELINE-PROMPT.md §12): scoped spec in, distilled deliverable out. Never read 10+ files sequentially; batch into 2-3 agent calls. Read the 3-4 files you'll edit yourself; delegate the rest.
- **Command timeouts (NON-NEGOTIABLE):** Every command that touches a remote
system MUST be wrapped with `timeout`. Hard limits: 30s for quick reads
(status, ps, ls), 120s for standard operations, 300s for deployments/pulls.
If a command hits the timeout, STOP and investigate root cause — never
blindly retry. A hung command is a failed command. Detect failure fast,
diagnose, fix, move on. This applies to ALL tools — bash, docker, CLIs,
sub-agents.
