Description
Problem to solve
Triggered by a recent incident that breaks extending workspace timeout from the editor (see relevant discussion (internal)), currently when a user is trying extend workspace timeout from the command palette in VS Code they get a notification error about upgrading their plan since workspace timeout boost is only available in the Unleashed plan, see plans and pricing.

Proposal
TBD (To be discussed)
In the meantime, we could provide a call-to-action to upgrade plan when trying to extend workspace timeout, that links to /plans or also nudge users to create a team.

Research direction
Start by locating the VS Code command-palette flow that handles extending workspace timeout and the existing plan-upgrade error notification. Clarify whether the intended call to action should link to /plans, encourage team creation, or both; done requires an agreed proposal and a working upgrade path.
