   • Enables Auto-GPT to execute shell commands, with interactivity. It takes a command, and optional timeout, and returns the interactions between the user and the process, as a list of dictionaries: [{role: "user"|"process"|"error", content: "the content of the interaction"}, ...]

Timeout Configuration

Add the following settings to your .env file to customize the plugin timeout:

• INTERACTIVE_SHELL_TIMEOUT_SECONDS: This setting allows you to adjust the timeout for the sub-process, which is set to 15 minutes by default.
