A Long Non-Streaming Response Was Billed Twice Past the 10-Minute Wall: Redesigning the SDK's Default Timeout and Retries

The Anthropic SDK's default 10-minute timeout and two automatic retries can silently re-run a long non-streaming response and bill you twice. Here is how the trap works, and how to close it with streaming, explicit timeout/max_retries, and a small local ledger — with measured before/after numbers.
