Saurav Panda 1488a39b7f address PR review: raise default cap + tolerate bad env values
Two issues flagged by automated review on #4711:

1. (P1, Codex) The 90s default was *below* the extract action's intentional
   120s page_extraction_llm.ainvoke timeout (tools/service.py:1096,1172).
   Slow-but-valid extractions against large pages would be truncated into
   timeout errors — a regression. Raised default to 180s, which sits above
   that 120s inner cap with grace.

2. (P2, Cubic + Codex) float(os.getenv('BROWSER_USE_ACTION_TIMEOUT_S', '90'))
   ran at import time. An empty or non-numeric value (common with env
   templating) raised ValueError and prevented browser_use.tools.service
   from importing at all — turning a config typo into a process-wide
   startup failure. Wrapped in try/except with a warning and fallback to
   the hardcoded 180s default.

Tests:
- test_default_action_timeout_accommodates_extract_action — pins the
  default >= 150s so future edits can't silently regress extract.
- test_malformed_env_timeout_does_not_break_import — reloads the module
  with empty / non-numeric env values and asserts it falls back cleanly,
  plus verifies a valid numeric env value still takes effect.

Codebase Structure

The code structure inspired by https://github.com/Netflix/dispatch.

Very good structure on how to make a scalable codebase is also in this repo.

Just a brief document about how we should structure our backend codebase.

Code Structure

src/
/<service name>/
models.py
services.py
prompts.py
views.py
utils.py
routers.py

    	/_<subservice name>/

Service.py

Always a single file, except if it becomes too long - more than ~500 lines, split it into _subservices

Views.py

Always split the views into two parts

# All
...

# Requests
...

# Responses
...

If too long → split into multiple files

Prompts.py

Single file; if too long → split into multiple files (one prompt per file or so)

Routers.py

Never split into more than one file
