Problem

Tests that fail on a time limit, a performance threshold or a timeout, and pass when run again, keep coming back at random, and each time someone has to look into the failure before running it again. AGENTS.md says nothing about them, so a contributor who meets one runs it again.

What changed

AGENTS.md gains a short section, "Tests that fail on timing", which says such a test is fixed, either with a limit that fits the slowest runner it runs on, with each runner's measurement behind it, or by finding and fixing why it takes too long. Nothing else changes.

Checks

This changes documentation only and no package code, so it merges on its quick checks and a review, without a full build. It merges after the release #83, so that release keeps the head its build ran on.
