Add unit tests for api

**Description**
Currently parsers lacks proper timeout support.

**Proposed solution**
Add configurable timeout with sensible defaults.

**Priority**: Low/Medium

Start by locating the parser and API code mentioned in the issue and checking how requests currently handle timeouts. The issue does not identify specific files or tests, so confirm the intended scope before starting; done means the timeout is configurable, has a sensible default, and is covered by unit tests.
