## Fix

Applied fix:
```python

  "$venv_dir/bin/python" -m pip install -e "$cli_dir[browser-use]"
  PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8 PYTHONUTF8=1 PATH="$venv_dir/bin:$uv_dir:$PATH" "$venv_dir/bin/browser-use" install >/dev/null

After (The Fix)

  timeout 300 "$venv_dir/bin/python" -m pip install --upgrade pip >/dev/null
  timeout 600 "$venv_dir/bin/python" -m pip install -e "$cli_dir[browser-use]"
  timeout 300 PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8 PYTHONUTF8=1 PATH="$venv_dir/bin:$uv_dir:$PATH" "$venv_dir/bin/browser-use" install >/dev/null
