-----------------------------------
Summary: camel-main - camel.main.duration alias of
durationMaxSeconds with a time unit (15s, 2m)
Key: CAMEL-24706
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-24706
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: camel-main
Reporter: Claus Ibsen
Add camel.main.duration as an alias of camel.main.durationMaxSeconds that
accepts a value with a time unit (15s, 2m, 1h, or a plain number of seconds).
Why: while benchmarking AI-assisted route authoring (camel-jbang-mcp, local and
hosted models, 14 runs on 2026-09-13), the model wrote camel.main.duration=15s
(or duration-seconds, durationSeconds) in application.properties in nearly
every run, and lost a correction round each time to "Unknown option". A human
rarely sets this option, but an AI uses it during development to make a run
stop by itself, so the natural spelling should work. The CLI already has
--max-seconds.
Suggested: a String option duration on MainConfigurationProperties (camel-main)
that parses the value with TimeUtils.toMilliSeconds and sets
durationMaxSeconds; documented in the main configuration metadata so the
catalog validators and the camel-jbang-mcp tools accept it.
