Research direction

Start with ui/hooks/useTimeout.js and review how its dependent ui/hooks/useCopyToClipboard.js uses it. Convert the file to TypeScript while preserving functionality, then run the relevant tests and lint checks. Done means the file is fully converted, tests pass, linting passes, and integration remains unchanged.
