🚨 Severity: MEDIUM
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: External API fetch calls lacked timeout configurations, which could lead to application hangs or build pipeline stalls if APIs became unresponsive.
🎯 Impact: Stalled build pipelines or degraded application performance (DoS risk).
πŸ”§ Fix: Added signal: AbortSignal.timeout(10000) to fetch requests across the codebase (src/lib/github.ts, src/hooks/useProjects.ts, src/components/os/apps/BlogApp.tsx).
βœ… Verification: Ran pnpm build, pnpm test, and CI=true pnpm test:e2e to ensure correct functionality and verify no regressions.

Note: Added a security learning journal entry to .jules/sentinel.md outlining the importance of timeouts for fetch calls.

Adds `signal: AbortSignal.timeout(10000)` to `fetch` calls in `src/lib/github.ts`, `src/hooks/useProjects.ts`, and `src/components/os/apps/BlogApp.tsx`. This prevents build pipeline hangs and DoS vulnerabilities that could occur when external APIs are slow or unresponsive.
