+Enhanced Roo Code profile with MCP timeout configuration for improved reliability during long-running AI operations. The Roo profile now automatically configures a 300-second timeout for MCP server operations, preventing timeouts during complex tasks like `parse-prd`, `expand-all`, `analyze-complexity`, and `research` operations. This change also replaces static MCP configuration files with programmatic generation for better maintainability.
+
+**What's New:**
+- 300-second timeout for MCP operations (up from default 60 seconds)
+- Programmatic MCP configuration generation (replaces static asset files)
+- Enhanced reliability for AI-powered operations
+- Consistent with other AI coding assistant profiles
+
+**Migration:** No user action required - existing Roo Code installations will automatically receive the enhanced MCP configuration on next initialization.

 - **Location:**
   - For CLI usage: Create a `.env` file in your project root.
   - For MCP/Cursor usage: Configure keys in the `env` section of your `.cursor/mcp.json` file.
+
+## MCP Timeout Configuration
+
+For MCP usage, it's important to configure appropriate timeouts for long-running AI operations:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "task-master-ai"],
+      "timeout": 300,
+      "env": {
+        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Key points:**
+- **Default MCP timeout**: 60 seconds (often insufficient for AI operations)
+- **Recommended timeout**: 300 seconds (5 minutes) 
+- **Operations that benefit**: `parse_prd`, `expand_task`, `analyze_project_complexity`, `research`
+- **Automatic setup**: Included when using `task-master rules add` for supported editors
+
 - **Required API Keys (Depending on configured providers):**
   - `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`: Your Anthropic API key.
   - `PERPLEXITY_API_KEY`: Your Perplexity API key.

 This document provides an overview of the MCP (Machine-to-Machine Communication Protocol) interface for the Task Master application. The MCP interface is defined in the `mcp-server/` directory and exposes the application's core functionalities as a set of tools that can be called remotely.
 
+## MCP Timeout Configuration
+
+Long-running AI operations in Task Master can exceed the default 60-second MCP timeout. Operations like `parse_prd`, `expand_task`, `analyze_project_complexity`, and `research` may take 2-5 minutes to complete.
+
+### Adding Timeout Configuration
+
+Add a `timeout` parameter to your MCP configuration to extend the timeout limit:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "task-master-ai"],
+      "timeout": 300,
+      "env": {
+        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your-anthropic-api-key"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Configuration Details:**
+- **`timeout: 300`** - Sets timeout to 300 seconds (5 minutes)
+- **Value range**: 1-3600 seconds (1 second to 1 hour)
+- **Recommended**: 300 seconds provides sufficient time for most AI operations
+- **Format**: Integer value in seconds (not milliseconds)
+
+### Automatic Setup
+
+When using supported AI coding assistants, the timeout configuration is automatically included when you add Task Master rules:
+
+```bash
+# Automatically includes timeout configuration
+task-master rules add cursor
+task-master rules add roo
+task-master rules add windsurf
+task-master rules add vscode
+```
+
+### Troubleshooting Timeouts
+
+If you're still experiencing timeout errors:
+
+1. **Verify configuration**: Check that `timeout: 300` is present in your MCP config
+2. **Restart editor**: Restart your editor after making configuration changes
+3. **Increase timeout**: For very complex operations, try `timeout: 600` (10 minutes)
+4. **Check API keys**: Ensure required API keys are properly configured
+
+**Expected behavior:**
+- **Before fix**: Operations fail after 60 seconds with `MCP request timed out after 60000ms`
+- **After fix**: Operations complete successfully within the configured timeout limit
+
 ## Core Concepts
 
 The MCP interface is built on top of the `fastmcp` library and registers a set of tools that correspond to the core functionalities of the Task Master application. These tools are defined in the `mcp-server/src/tools/` directory and are registered with the MCP server in `mcp-server/src/tools/index.js`.

+### MCP Timeout Configuration
+
+Long-running AI operations in taskmaster-ai can exceed the default 60-second MCP timeout. Operations like `parse_prd`, `expand_task`, `research`, and `analyze_project_complexity` may take 2-5 minutes to complete.
+
+#### Adding Timeout Configuration
+
+Add a `timeout` parameter to your MCP configuration to extend the timeout limit. The timeout configuration works identically across MCP clients including Cursor, Windsurf, and RooCode:
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "task-master-ai": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "--package=task-master-ai", "task-master-ai"],

+        "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "your-anthropic-api-key"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Configuration Details:**
+- **`timeout: 300`** - Sets timeout to 300 seconds (5 minutes)
+- **Value range**: 1-3600 seconds (1 second to 1 hour)
+- **Recommended**: 300 seconds provides sufficient time for most AI operations
+- **Format**: Integer value in seconds (not milliseconds)
+
+#### Automatic Setup
+
+When adding taskmaster rules for supported editors, the timeout configuration is automatically included:
+
+```bash
+# Automatically includes timeout configuration
+task-master rules add cursor
+task-master rules add roo
+task-master rules add windsurf
+task-master rules add vscode
+```
+
+#### Troubleshooting Timeouts
+
+If you're still experiencing timeout errors:
+
+1. **Verify configuration**: Check that `timeout: 300` is present in your MCP config
+2. **Restart editor**: Restart your editor after making configuration changes
+3. **Increase timeout**: For very complex operations, try `timeout: 600` (10 minutes)
