What you expected to see, versus what you actually saw

For the past 2 weeks, our dependabot runs for npm on this one repo (and only this one repo), which is a private repo, are timing out with errors after the run dependabot step runs for 54ish minutes. This has been happening in every run for 2+ weeks, but hadn't happened before this.

Note: the actual steps only take 3 minutes, then it just hangs for 51 more minutes

Start of logs:

End of logs:

12:30 - 12:27 is 3 minutes, not 54 like this step is taking

We only see this on this one repository.
