# `request_more_time`

Extends the deadline of the in-flight NebulaAPI call this process is serving.

Call it from inside a `defapi` body that legitimately runs long: it resets the
caller's timeout window (a heartbeat, like a long task pinging its scheduler),
so a slow-but-alive body is not mistaken for a hung one and killed.

Outside a remote call — the same body invoked locally, or any other process —
it is a no-op: the local path has no caller deadline to extend.
