Delayed Command

You know those times when you need to kick off a build, wait for a service to spin up, or give a deployment time to settle before running the next command? This handles that pattern cleanly. Pass it a duration like "5m" or "1h30m" and the bash command you want to run, and it waits then executes. Nothing fancy, just sleep with better syntax and the command baked in. It's from paulrberg's agent-skills repo and has a couple hundred installs, which tracks for something this specific. Worth noting it failed a couple security audits, so check what commands you're delaying before you wire this into anything production critical.
