-# BMM Module Data
-
-This directory contains module-specific data files used by BMM agents and workflows.
-
-## Files
-
-### `project-context-template.md`
-
-Template for project-specific brainstorming context. Used by:
-
-- Analyst agent `brainstorm-project` command
-- Core brainstorming workflow when called with context
-
-### `documentation-standards.md`
-
-BMAD documentation standards and guidelines. Used by:
-
-- Tech Writer agent (critical action loading)
-- Various documentation workflows
-- Standards validation and review processes
-
-## Purpose
-
-Separates module-specific data from core workflow implementations, maintaining clean architecture:
-
-- Core workflows remain generic and reusable
-- Module-specific templates and standards are properly scoped
-- Data files can be easily maintained and updated
-- Clear separation of concerns between core and module functionality

-# Technical Documentation Standards for BMAD
-
-**For Agent: Technical Writer**
-**Purpose: Concise reference for documentation creation and review**
-
----
-
-## CRITICAL RULES
-
-### Rule 1: CommonMark Strict Compliance
-
-ALL documentation MUST follow CommonMark specification exactly. No exceptions.
-
-### Rule 2: NO TIME ESTIMATES
-
-NEVER document time estimates, durations, or completion times for any workflow, task, or activity. This includes:
-
-- Workflow execution time (e.g., "30-60 min", "2-8 hours")
-- Task duration estimates
-- Reading time estimates
-- Implementation time ranges
-- Any temporal measurements
-
-Time varies dramatically based on:
-
-- Project complexity
-- Team experience
-- Tooling and environment
-- Context switching
-- Unforeseen blockers
-
-**Instead:** Focus on workflow steps, dependencies, and outputs. Let users determine their own timelines.
-
-### CommonMark Essentials
-
-**Headers:**
-
-- Use ATX-style ONLY: `#` `##` `###` (NOT Setext underlines)
-- Single space after `#`: `# Title` (NOT `#Title`)
-- No trailing `#`: `# Title` (NOT `# Title #`)
-- Hierarchical order: Don't skip levels (h1→h2→h3, not h1→h3)
-
-**Code Blocks:**
-
-- Use fenced blocks with language identifier:
-  ````markdown
-  ```javascript
-  const example = 'code';
-  ```
-  ````
-- NOT indented code blocks (ambiguous)
-
-**Lists:**
-
-- Consistent markers within list: all `-` or all `*` or all `+` (don't mix)
-- Proper indentation for nested items (2 or 4 spaces, stay consistent)
-- Blank line before/after list for clarity
-
-**Links:**
-
-- Inline: `[text](url)`
-- Reference: `[text][ref]` then `[ref]: url` at bottom
-- NO bare URLs without `<>` brackets
-
-**Emphasis:**
-
-- Italic: `*text*` or `_text_`
-- Bold: `**text**` or `__text__`
-- Consistent style within document
-
-**Line Breaks:**
-
-- Two spaces at end of line + newline, OR
-- Blank line between paragraphs
-- NO single line breaks (they're ignored)
-
----
-
-## Mermaid Diagrams: Valid Syntax Required
-
-**Critical Rules:**
-
-1. Always specify diagram type first line
-2. Use valid Mermaid v10+ syntax
-3. Test syntax before outputting (mental validation)
-4. Keep focused: 5-10 nodes ideal, max 15
-
-**Diagram Type Selection:**
-
-- **flowchart** - Process flows, decision trees, workflows
-- **sequenceDiagram** - API interactions, message flows, time-based processes
-- **classDiagram** - Object models, class relationships, system structure
-- **erDiagram** - Database schemas, entity relationships
-- **stateDiagram-v2** - State machines, lifecycle stages
-- **gitGraph** - Branch strategies, version control flows
-
-**Formatting:**
-
-````markdown
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Start[Clear Label] --> Decision{Question?}
-    Decision -->|Yes| Action1[Do This]
-    Decision -->|No| Action2[Do That]
-```
-````
-
----
-
-## Style Guide Principles (Distilled)
-
-Apply in this hierarchy:
-
-1. **Project-specific guide** (if exists) - always ask first
-2. **BMAD conventions** (this document)
-3. **Google Developer Docs style** (defaults below)
-4. **CommonMark spec** (when in doubt)
-
-### Core Writing Rules
-
-**Task-Oriented Focus:**
-
-- Write for user GOALS, not feature lists
-- Start with WHY, then HOW
-- Every doc answers: "What can I accomplish?"
-
-**Clarity Principles:**
-
-- Active voice: "Click the button" NOT "The button should be clicked"
-- Present tense: "The function returns" NOT "The function will return"
-- Direct language: "Use X for Y" NOT "X can be used for Y"
-- Second person: "You configure" NOT "Users configure" or "One configures"
-
-**Structure:**
-
-- One idea per sentence
-- One topic per paragraph
-- Headings describe content accurately
-- Examples follow explanations
-
-**Accessibility:**
-
-- Descriptive link text: "See the API reference" NOT "Click here"
-- Alt text for diagrams: Describe what it shows
-- Semantic heading hierarchy (don't skip levels)
-- Tables have headers
-- Emojis are acceptable if user preferences allow (modern accessibility tools support emojis well)
-
----
-
-## OpenAPI/API Documentation
-
-**Required Elements:**
-
-- Endpoint path and method
-- Authentication requirements
-- Request parameters (path, query, body) with types
-- Request example (realistic, working)
-- Response schema with types
-- Response examples (success + common errors)
-- Error codes and meanings
-
-**Quality Standards:**
-
-- OpenAPI 3.0+ specification compliance
-- Complete schemas (no missing fields)
-- Examples that actually work
-- Clear error messages
-- Security schemes documented
-
----
-
-## Documentation Types: Quick Reference
-
-**README:**
-
-- What (overview), Why (purpose), How (quick start)
-- Installation, Usage, Contributing, License
-- Under 500 lines (link to detailed docs)
-
-**API Reference:**
-
-- Complete endpoint coverage
-- Request/response examples
-- Authentication details
-- Error handling
-- Rate limits if applicable
-
-**User Guide:**
-
-- Task-based sections (How to...)
-- Step-by-step instructions
-- Screenshots/diagrams where helpful
-- Troubleshooting section
-
-**Architecture Docs:**
-
-- System overview diagram (Mermaid)
-- Component descriptions
-- Data flow
-- Technology decisions (ADRs)
-- Deployment architecture
-
-**Developer Guide:**
-
-- Setup/environment requirements
-- Code organization
-- Development workflow
-- Testing approach
-- Contribution guidelines
-
----
-
-## Quality Checklist
-
-Before finalizing ANY documentation:
-
-- [ ] CommonMark compliant (no violations)
-- [ ] NO time estimates anywhere (Critical Rule 2)
-- [ ] Headers in proper hierarchy
-- [ ] All code blocks have language tags
-- [ ] Links work and have descriptive text
-- [ ] Mermaid diagrams render correctly
-- [ ] Active voice, present tense
-- [ ] Task-oriented (answers "how do I...")
-- [ ] Examples are concrete and working
-- [ ] Accessibility standards met
-- [ ] Spelling/grammar checked
-- [ ] Reads clearly at target skill level
-
----
-
-## BMAD-Specific Conventions
-
-**File Organization:**
-
-- `README.md` at root of each major component
-- `docs/` folder for extensive documentation
-- Workflow-specific docs in workflow folder
-- Cross-references use relative paths
-
-**Frontmatter:**
-Use YAML frontmatter when appropriate:
-
-```yaml
----
-title: Document Title
-description: Brief description
-author: Author name
-date: YYYY-MM-DD
----
-```
-
-**Metadata:**
-
-- Always include last-updated date
-- Version info for versioned docs
-- Author attribution for accountability
-
----
-
-**Remember: This is your foundation. Follow these rules consistently, and all documentation will be clear, accessible, and maintainable.**

-# API Request Utility
-
-## Principle
-
-Use typed HTTP client with built-in schema validation and automatic retry for server errors. The utility handles URL resolution, header management, response parsing, and single-line response validation with proper TypeScript support.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Vanilla Playwright's request API requires boilerplate for common patterns:
-
-- Manual JSON parsing (`await response.json()`)
-- Repetitive status code checking
-- No built-in retry logic for transient failures
-- No schema validation
-- Complex URL construction
-
-The `apiRequest` utility provides:
-
-- **Automatic JSON parsing**: Response body pre-parsed
-- **Built-in retry**: 5xx errors retry with exponential backoff
-- **Schema validation**: Single-line validation (JSON Schema, Zod, OpenAPI)
-- **URL resolution**: Four-tier strategy (explicit > config > Playwright > direct)
-- **TypeScript generics**: Type-safe response bodies
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic API Request
-
-**Context**: Making authenticated API requests with automatic retry and type safety.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-
-test('should fetch user data', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest<User>({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users/123',
-    headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer token' },
-  });
-
-  expect(status).toBe(200);
-  expect(body.name).toBe('John Doe'); // TypeScript knows body is User
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Generic type `<User>` provides TypeScript autocomplete for `body`
-- Status and body destructured from response
-- Headers passed as object
-- Automatic retry for 5xx errors (configurable)
-
-### Example 2: Schema Validation (Single Line)
-
-**Context**: Validate API responses match expected schema with single-line syntax.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-
-test('should validate response schema', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  // JSON Schema validation
-  const response = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users/123',
-    validateSchema: {
-      type: 'object',
-      required: ['id', 'name', 'email'],
-      properties: {
-        id: { type: 'string' },
-        name: { type: 'string' },
-        email: { type: 'string', format: 'email' },
-      },
-    },
-  });
-  // Throws if schema validation fails
-
-  // Zod schema validation
-  import { z } from 'zod';
-
-  const UserSchema = z.object({
-    id: z.string(),
-    name: z.string(),
-    email: z.string().email(),
-  });
-
-  const response = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users/123',
-    validateSchema: UserSchema,
-  });
-  // Response body is type-safe AND validated
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Single `validateSchema` parameter
-- Supports JSON Schema, Zod, YAML files, OpenAPI specs
-- Throws on validation failure with detailed errors
-- Zero boilerplate validation code
-
-### Example 3: POST with Body and Retry Configuration
-
-**Context**: Creating resources with custom retry behavior for error testing.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('should create user', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  const newUser = {
-    name: 'Jane Doe',
-    email: 'jane@example.com',
-  };
-
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'POST',
-    path: '/api/users',
-    body: newUser, // Automatically sent as JSON
-    headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer token' },
-  });
-
-  expect(status).toBe(201);
-  expect(body.id).toBeDefined();
-});
-
-// Disable retry for error testing
-test('should handle 500 errors', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  await expect(
-    apiRequest({
-      method: 'GET',
-      path: '/api/error',
-      retryConfig: { maxRetries: 0 }, // Disable retry
-    }),
-  ).rejects.toThrow('Request failed with status 500');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `body` parameter auto-serializes to JSON
-- Default retry: 5xx errors, 3 retries, exponential backoff
-- Disable retry with `retryConfig: { maxRetries: 0 }`
-- Only 5xx errors retry (4xx errors fail immediately)
-
-### Example 4: URL Resolution Strategy
-
-**Context**: Flexible URL handling for different environments and test contexts.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Strategy 1: Explicit baseUrl (highest priority)
-await apiRequest({
-  method: 'GET',
-  path: '/users',
-  baseUrl: 'https://api.example.com', // Uses https://api.example.com/users
-});
-
-// Strategy 2: Config baseURL (from fixture)
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-
-test.use({ configBaseUrl: 'https://staging-api.example.com' });
-
-test('uses config baseURL', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/users', // Uses https://staging-api.example.com/users
-  });
-});
-
-// Strategy 3: Playwright baseURL (from playwright.config.ts)
-// playwright.config.ts
-export default defineConfig({
-  use: {
-    baseURL: 'https://api.example.com',
-  },
-});
-
-test('uses Playwright baseURL', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/users', // Uses https://api.example.com/users
-  });
-});
-
-// Strategy 4: Direct path (full URL)
-await apiRequest({
-  method: 'GET',
-  path: 'https://api.example.com/users', // Full URL works too
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Four-tier resolution: explicit > config > Playwright > direct
-- Trailing slashes normalized automatically
-- Environment-specific baseUrl easy to configure
-
-### Example 5: Integration with Recurse (Polling)
-
-**Context**: Waiting for async operations to complete (background jobs, eventual consistency).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures';
-
-test('should poll until job completes', async ({ apiRequest, recurse }) => {
-  // Create job
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'POST',
-    path: '/api/jobs',
-    body: { type: 'export' },
-  });
-
-  const jobId = body.id;
-
-  // Poll until ready
-  const completedJob = await recurse(
-    () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: `/api/jobs/${jobId}` }),
-    (response) => response.body.status === 'completed',
-    { timeout: 60000, interval: 2000 },
-  );
-
-  expect(completedJob.body.result).toBeDefined();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `apiRequest` returns full response object
-- `recurse` polls until predicate returns true
-- Composable utilities work together seamlessly
-

-
-## When to Use
-
-**Use apiRequest for:**
-
-- ✅ API endpoint testing
-- ✅ Background API calls in UI tests
-- ✅ Schema validation needs
-- ✅ Tests requiring retry logic
-- ✅ Typed API responses
-
-**Stick with vanilla Playwright for:**
-
-- Simple one-off requests where utility overhead isn't worth it
-- Testing Playwright's native features specifically
-- Legacy tests where migration isn't justified
-
-## Related Fragments

-- `auth-session.md` - Authentication token management
-- `recurse.md` - Polling for async operations
-- `fixtures-composition.md` - Combining utilities with mergeTests
-- `log.md` - Logging API requests
-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Ignoring retry failures:**
-
-```typescript
-try {
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/unstable' });
-} catch {
-  // Silent failure - loses retry information
-}
-```
-
-**✅ Let retries happen, handle final failure:**
-
-```typescript
-await expect(apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/unstable' })).rejects.toThrow(); // Retries happen automatically, then final error caught
-```
-
-**❌ Disabling TypeScript benefits:**
-
-```typescript
-const response: any = await apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/users' });
-```
-
-**✅ Use generic types:**
-
-```typescript
-const { body } = await apiRequest<User[]>({ method: 'GET', path: '/users' });
-// body is typed as User[]
-```

-# Auth Session Utility
-
-## Principle
-
-Persist authentication tokens to disk and reuse across test runs. Support multiple user identifiers, ephemeral authentication, and worker-specific accounts for parallel execution. Fetch tokens once, use everywhere.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Playwright's built-in authentication works but has limitations:
-
-- Re-authenticates for every test run (slow)
-- Single user per project setup
-- No token expiration handling
-- Manual session management
-- Complex setup for multi-user scenarios
-
-The `auth-session` utility provides:
-
-- **Token persistence**: Authenticate once, reuse across runs
-- **Multi-user support**: Different user identifiers in same test suite
-- **Ephemeral auth**: On-the-fly user authentication without disk persistence
-- **Worker-specific accounts**: Parallel execution with isolated user accounts
-- **Automatic token management**: Checks validity, renews if expired
-- **Flexible provider pattern**: Adapt to any auth system (OAuth2, JWT, custom)
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Auth Session Setup
-
-**Context**: Configure global authentication that persists across test runs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Step 1: Configure in global-setup.ts
-import { authStorageInit, setAuthProvider, configureAuthSession, authGlobalInit } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session';
-import myCustomProvider from './auth/custom-auth-provider';
-
-async function globalSetup() {
-  // Ensure storage directories exist
-  authStorageInit();
-
-  // Configure storage path
-  configureAuthSession({
-    authStoragePath: process.cwd() + '/playwright/auth-sessions',
-    debug: true,
-  });
-
-  // Set custom provider (HOW to authenticate)
-  setAuthProvider(myCustomProvider);
-
-  // Optional: pre-fetch token for default user
-  await authGlobalInit();
-}
-
-export default globalSetup;
-
-// Step 2: Create auth fixture
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { createAuthFixtures, setAuthProvider } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session';
-import myCustomProvider from './custom-auth-provider';
-
-// Register provider early
-setAuthProvider(myCustomProvider);
-
-export const test = base.extend(createAuthFixtures());
-
-// Step 3: Use in tests
-test('authenticated request', async ({ authToken, request }) => {
-  const response = await request.get('/api/protected', {
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${authToken}` },
-  });
-
-  expect(response.ok()).toBeTruthy();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Global setup runs once before all tests
-- Token fetched once, reused across all tests
-- Custom provider defines your auth mechanism
-- Order matters: configure, then setProvider, then init
-
-### Example 2: Multi-User Authentication
-
-**Context**: Testing with different user roles (admin, regular user, guest) in same test suite.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '../support/auth/auth-fixture';
-
-// Option 1: Per-test user override
-test('admin actions', async ({ authToken, authOptions }) => {
-  // Override default user
-  authOptions.userIdentifier = 'admin';
-
-  const { authToken: adminToken } = await test.step('Get admin token', async () => {
-    return { authToken }; // Re-fetches with new identifier
-  });
-
-  // Use admin token
-  const response = await request.get('/api/admin/users', {
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${adminToken}` },
-  });
-});
-
-// Option 2: Parallel execution with different users
-test.describe.parallel('multi-user tests', () => {
-  test('user 1 actions', async ({ authToken }) => {
-    // Uses default user (e.g., 'user1')
-  });
-
-  test('user 2 actions', async ({ authToken, authOptions }) => {
-    authOptions.userIdentifier = 'user2';
-    // Uses different token for user2
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Override `authOptions.userIdentifier` per test
-- Tokens cached separately per user identifier
-- Parallel tests isolated with different users
-- Worker-specific accounts possible
-
-### Example 3: Ephemeral User Authentication
-
-**Context**: Create temporary test users that don't persist to disk (e.g., testing user creation flow).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { applyUserCookiesToBrowserContext } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session';
-import { createTestUser } from '../utils/user-factory';
-
-test('ephemeral user test', async ({ context, page }) => {
-  // Create temporary user (not persisted)
-  const ephemeralUser = await createTestUser({
-    role: 'admin',
-    permissions: ['delete-users'],
-  });
-
-  // Apply auth directly to browser context
-  await applyUserCookiesToBrowserContext(context, ephemeralUser);
-
-  // Page now authenticated as ephemeral user
-  await page.goto('/admin/users');
-
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('delete-user-btn')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // User and token cleaned up after test
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- No disk persistence (ephemeral)
-- Apply cookies directly to context
-- Useful for testing user lifecycle
-- Clean up automatic when test ends
-
-### Example 4: Testing Multiple Users in Single Test
-
-**Context**: Testing interactions between users (messaging, sharing, collaboration features).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('user interaction', async ({ browser }) => {
-  // User 1 context
-  const user1Context = await browser.newContext({
-    storageState: './auth-sessions/local/user1/storage-state.json',
-  });
-  const user1Page = await user1Context.newPage();
-
-  // User 2 context
-  const user2Context = await browser.newContext({
-    storageState: './auth-sessions/local/user2/storage-state.json',
-  });
-  const user2Page = await user2Context.newPage();
-
-  // User 1 sends message
-  await user1Page.goto('/messages');
-  await user1Page.fill('#message', 'Hello from user 1');
-  await user1Page.click('#send');
-
-  // User 2 receives message
-  await user2Page.goto('/messages');
-  await expect(user2Page.getByText('Hello from user 1')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Cleanup
-  await user1Context.close();
-  await user2Context.close();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Each user has separate browser context
-- Reference storage state files directly
-- Test real-time interactions
-- Clean up contexts after test
-
-### Example 5: Worker-Specific Accounts (Parallel Testing)
-
-**Context**: Running tests in parallel with isolated user accounts per worker to avoid conflicts.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts
-export default defineConfig({
-  workers: 4, // 4 parallel workers
-  use: {
-    // Each worker uses different user
-    storageState: async ({}, use, testInfo) => {
-      const workerIndex = testInfo.workerIndex;
-      const userIdentifier = `worker-${workerIndex}`;
-
-      await use(`./auth-sessions/local/${userIdentifier}/storage-state.json`);
-    },
-  },
-});
-
-// Tests run in parallel, each worker with its own user
-test('parallel test 1', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Worker 0 uses worker-0 account
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-});
-
-test('parallel test 2', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Worker 1 uses worker-1 account
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Each worker has isolated user account
-- No conflicts in parallel execution
-- Token management automatic per worker
-- Scales to any number of workers
-
-## Custom Auth Provider Pattern
-
-**Context**: Adapt auth-session to your authentication system (OAuth2, JWT, SAML, custom).
-
-**Minimal provider structure**:
-
-```typescript
-import { type AuthProvider } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session';
-
-const myCustomProvider: AuthProvider = {
-  getEnvironment: (options) => options.environment || 'local',
-
-  getUserIdentifier: (options) => options.userIdentifier || 'default-user',
-
-  extractToken: (storageState) => {
-    // Extract token from your storage format
-    return storageState.cookies.find((c) => c.name === 'auth_token')?.value;
-  },
-
-  extractCookies: (tokenData) => {
-    // Convert token to cookies for browser context
-    return [
-      {
-        name: 'auth_token',
-        value: tokenData,
-        domain: 'example.com',
-        path: '/',
-        httpOnly: true,
-        secure: true,
-      },
-    ];
-  },
-
-  isTokenExpired: (storageState) => {
-    // Check if token is expired
-    const expiresAt = storageState.cookies.find((c) => c.name === 'expires_at');
-    return Date.now() > parseInt(expiresAt?.value || '0');
-  },
-
-  manageAuthToken: async (request, options) => {
-    // Main token acquisition logic
-    // Return storage state with cookies/localStorage
-  },
-};
-
-export default myCustomProvider;
-```
-
-## Integration with API Request
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures';
-
-test('authenticated API call', async ({ apiRequest, authToken }) => {
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/protected',
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${authToken}` },
-  });
-
-  expect(status).toBe(200);
-});
-```
-
-## Related Fragments
-
-- `overview.md` - Installation and fixture composition
-- `api-request.md` - Authenticated API requests
-- `fixtures-composition.md` - Merging auth with other utilities
-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Calling setAuthProvider after globalSetup:**
-
-```typescript
-async function globalSetup() {
-  configureAuthSession(...)
-  await authGlobalInit()  // Provider not set yet!
-  setAuthProvider(provider)  // Too late
-}
-```
-
-**✅ Register provider before init:**
-
-```typescript
-async function globalSetup() {
-  authStorageInit()
-  configureAuthSession(...)
-  setAuthProvider(provider)  // First
-  await authGlobalInit()     // Then init
-}
-```
-
-**❌ Hardcoding storage paths:**
-
-```typescript
-const storageState = './auth-sessions/local/user1/storage-state.json'; // Brittle
-```
-
-**✅ Use helper functions:**
-
-```typescript
-import { getTokenFilePath } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session';
-
-const tokenPath = getTokenFilePath({
-  environment: 'local',
-  userIdentifier: 'user1',
-  tokenFileName: 'storage-state.json',
-});
-```

-# Burn-in Test Runner
-
-## Principle
-
-Use smart test selection with git diff analysis to run only affected tests. Filter out irrelevant changes (configs, types, docs) and control test volume with percentage-based execution. Reduce unnecessary CI runs while maintaining reliability.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Playwright's `--only-changed` triggers all affected tests:
-
-- Config file changes trigger hundreds of tests
-- Type definition changes cause full suite runs
-- No volume control (all or nothing)
-- Slow CI pipelines
-
-The `burn-in` utility provides:
-
-- **Smart filtering**: Skip patterns for irrelevant files (configs, types, docs)
-- **Volume control**: Run percentage of affected tests after filtering
-- **Custom dependency analysis**: More accurate than Playwright's built-in
-- **CI optimization**: Faster pipelines without sacrificing confidence
-- **Process of elimination**: Start with all → filter irrelevant → control volume
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Burn-in Setup
-
-**Context**: Run burn-in on changed files compared to main branch.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Step 1: Create burn-in script
-// playwright/scripts/burn-in-changed.ts
-import { runBurnIn } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/burn-in'
-
-async function main() {
-  await runBurnIn({
-    configPath: 'playwright/config/.burn-in.config.ts',
-    baseBranch: 'main'
-  })
-}
-
-main().catch(console.error)
-
-// Step 2: Create config
-// playwright/config/.burn-in.config.ts
-import type { BurnInConfig } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/burn-in'
-
-const config: BurnInConfig = {
-  // Files that never trigger tests (first filter)
-  skipBurnInPatterns: [
-    '**/config/**',
-    '**/*constants*',
-    '**/*types*',
-    '**/*.md',
-    '**/README*'
-  ],
-
-  // Run 30% of remaining tests after skip filter
-  burnInTestPercentage: 0.3,
-
-  // Burn-in repetition
-  burnIn: {
-    repeatEach: 3,  // Run each test 3 times
-    retries: 1      // Allow 1 retry
-  }
-}
-
-export default config
-
-// Step 3: Add package.json script
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "test:pw:burn-in-changed": "tsx playwright/scripts/burn-in-changed.ts"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Two-stage filtering: skip patterns, then volume control
-- `skipBurnInPatterns` eliminates irrelevant files
-- `burnInTestPercentage` controls test volume (0.3 = 30%)
-- Custom dependency analysis finds actually affected tests
-
-### Example 2: CI Integration
-
-**Context**: Use burn-in in GitHub Actions for efficient CI runs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```yaml
-# .github/workflows/burn-in.yml
-name: Burn-in Changed Tests
-
-on:
-  pull_request:
-    branches: [main]
-
-jobs:
-  burn-in:
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-        with:
-          fetch-depth: 0 # Need git history
-
-      - name: Setup Node
-        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
-
-      - name: Install dependencies
-        run: npm ci
-
-      - name: Run burn-in on changed tests
-        run: npm run test:pw:burn-in-changed -- --base-branch=origin/main
-
-      - name: Upload artifacts
-        if: failure()
-        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
-        with:
-          name: burn-in-failures
-          path: test-results/
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `fetch-depth: 0` for full git history
-- Pass `--base-branch=origin/main` for PR comparison
-- Upload artifacts only on failure
-- Significantly faster than full suite
-
-### Example 3: How It Works (Process of Elimination)
-
-**Context**: Understanding the filtering pipeline.
-
-**Scenario:**
-
-```
-Git diff finds: 21 changed files
-├─ Step 1: Skip patterns filter
-│  Removed: 6 files (*.md, config/*, *types*)
-│  Remaining: 15 files
-│
-├─ Step 2: Dependency analysis
-│  Tests that import these 15 files: 45 tests
-│
-└─ Step 3: Volume control (30%)
-   Final tests to run: 14 tests (30% of 45)
-
-Result: Run 14 targeted tests instead of 147 with --only-changed!
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Three-stage pipeline: skip → analyze → control
-- Custom dependency analysis (not just imports)
-- Percentage applies AFTER filtering
-- Dramatically reduces CI time
-
-### Example 4: Environment-Specific Configuration
-
-**Context**: Different settings for local vs CI environments.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import type { BurnInConfig } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/burn-in';
-
-const config: BurnInConfig = {
-  skipBurnInPatterns: ['**/config/**', '**/*types*', '**/*.md'],
-
-  // CI runs fewer iterations, local runs more
-  burnInTestPercentage: process.env.CI ? 0.2 : 0.3,
-
-  burnIn: {
-    repeatEach: process.env.CI ? 2 : 3,
-    retries: process.env.CI ? 0 : 1, // No retries in CI
-  },
-};
-
-export default config;
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `process.env.CI` for environment detection
-- Lower percentage in CI (20% vs 30%)
-- Fewer iterations in CI (2 vs 3)
-- No retries in CI (fail fast)
-
-### Example 5: Sharding Support
-
-**Context**: Distribute burn-in tests across multiple CI workers.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// burn-in-changed.ts with sharding
-import { runBurnIn } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/burn-in';
-
-async function main() {
-  const shardArg = process.argv.find((arg) => arg.startsWith('--shard='));
-
-  if (shardArg) {
-    process.env.PW_SHARD = shardArg.split('=')[1];
-  }
-
-  await runBurnIn({
-    configPath: 'playwright/config/.burn-in.config.ts',
-  });
-}
-```
-
-```yaml
-# GitHub Actions with sharding
-jobs:
-  burn-in:
-    strategy:
-      matrix:
-        shard: [1/3, 2/3, 3/3]
-    steps:
-      - run: npm run test:pw:burn-in-changed -- --shard=${{ matrix.shard }}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Pass `--shard=1/3` for parallel execution
-- Burn-in respects Playwright sharding
-- Distribute across multiple workers
-- Reduces total CI time further
-
-## Integration with CI Workflow
-
-When setting up CI with `*ci` workflow, recommend burn-in for:
-
-- Pull request validation
-- Pre-merge checks
-- Nightly builds (subset runs)
-
-## Related Fragments
-
-- `ci-burn-in.md` - Traditional burn-in patterns (10-iteration loops)
-- `selective-testing.md` - Test selection strategies
-- `overview.md` - Installation
-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Over-aggressive skip patterns:**
-
-```typescript
-skipBurnInPatterns: [
-  '**/*', // Skips everything!
-];
-```
-
-**✅ Targeted skip patterns:**
-
-```typescript
-skipBurnInPatterns: ['**/config/**', '**/*types*', '**/*.md', '**/*constants*'];
-```
-
-**❌ Too low percentage (false confidence):**
-
-```typescript
-burnInTestPercentage: 0.05; // Only 5% - might miss issues
-```
-
-**✅ Balanced percentage:**
-
-```typescript
-burnInTestPercentage: 0.2; // 20% in CI, provides good coverage
-```

-# CI Pipeline and Burn-In Strategy
-
-## Principle
-
-CI pipelines must execute tests reliably, quickly, and provide clear feedback. Burn-in testing (running changed tests multiple times) flushes out flakiness before merge. Stage jobs strategically: install/cache once, run changed specs first for fast feedback, then shard full suites with fail-fast disabled to preserve evidence.
-
-## Rationale
-
-CI is the quality gate for production. A poorly configured pipeline either wastes developer time (slow feedback, false positives) or ships broken code (false negatives, insufficient coverage). Burn-in testing ensures reliability by stress-testing changed code, while parallel execution and intelligent test selection optimize speed without sacrificing thoroughness.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: GitHub Actions Workflow with Parallel Execution
-
-**Context**: Production-ready CI/CD pipeline for E2E tests with caching, parallelization, and burn-in testing.
-
-**Implementation**:
-

-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Install once, reuse everywhere**: Dependencies cached across all jobs
-- **Burn-in first**: Changed specs run 10x before full suite
-- **Fail-fast disabled**: All shards run to completion for full evidence
-- **Parallel execution**: 4 shards cut execution time by ~75%
-- **Artifact retention**: 30 days for reports, 7 days for failure debugging

-echo "━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━"
-echo "All $ITERATIONS iterations passed for $SPEC_COUNT test file(s)"
-echo "Changed specs are stable and ready to merge."
-echo ""
-
-# Cleanup logs
-rm -f burn-in-log-*.txt
-
-exit 0
-```
-
-**Usage**:
-
-```bash
-# Run locally with default settings (10 iterations, compare to main)
-./scripts/burn-in-changed.sh
-
-# Custom iterations and base branch
-./scripts/burn-in-changed.sh 20 develop
-
-# Add to package.json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "test:burn-in": "bash scripts/burn-in-changed.sh",
-    "test:burn-in:strict": "bash scripts/burn-in-changed.sh 20"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Exit on first failure**: Flaky tests caught immediately
-- **Failure artifacts**: Saved per-iteration for debugging
-- **Flexible configuration**: Iterations and base branch customizable
-- **CI/local parity**: Same script runs in both environments
-- **Clear output**: Visual feedback on progress and results

-## CI Configuration Checklist
-
-Before deploying your CI pipeline, verify:
-
-- [ ] **Caching strategy**: node_modules, npm cache, browser binaries cached
-- [ ] **Timeout budgets**: Each job has reasonable timeout (10-30 min)
-- [ ] **Artifact retention**: 30 days for reports, 7 days for failure artifacts
-- [ ] **Parallelization**: Matrix strategy uses fail-fast: false
-- [ ] **Burn-in enabled**: Changed specs run 5-10x before merge
-- [ ] **wait-on app startup**: CI waits for app (wait-on: '<http://localhost:3000>')
-- [ ] **Secrets documented**: README lists required secrets (API keys, tokens)
-- [ ] **Local parity**: CI scripts runnable locally (npm run test:ci)
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- Used in workflows: `*ci` (CI/CD pipeline setup)
-- Related fragments: `selective-testing.md`, `playwright-config.md`, `test-quality.md`
-- CI tools: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins

-# Component Test-Driven Development Loop
-
-## Principle
-
-Start every UI change with a failing component test (`cy.mount`, Playwright component test, or RTL `render`). Follow the Red-Green-Refactor cycle: write a failing test (red), make it pass with minimal code (green), then improve the implementation (refactor). Ship only after the cycle completes. Keep component tests under 100 lines, isolated with fresh providers per test, and validate accessibility alongside functionality.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Component TDD provides immediate feedback during development. Failing tests (red) clarify requirements before writing code. Minimal implementations (green) prevent over-engineering. Refactoring with passing tests ensures changes don't break functionality. Isolated tests with fresh providers prevent state bleed in parallel runs. Accessibility assertions catch usability issues early. Visual debugging (Cypress runner, Storybook, Playwright trace viewer) accelerates diagnosis when tests fail.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Red-Green-Refactor Loop
-
-**Context**: When building a new component, start with a failing test that describes the desired behavior. Implement just enough to pass, then refactor for quality.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Step 1: RED - Write failing test
-// Button.cy.tsx (Cypress Component Test)
-import { Button } from './Button';
-
-describe('Button Component', () => {
-  it('should render with label', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Click Me" />);
-    cy.contains('Click Me').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should call onClick when clicked', () => {
-    const onClickSpy = cy.stub().as('onClick');
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Submit" onClick={onClickSpy} />);
-
-    cy.get('button').click();
-    cy.get('@onClick').should('have.been.calledOnce');
-  });
-});
-
-// Run test: FAILS - Button component doesn't exist yet
-// Error: "Cannot find module './Button'"
-
-// Step 2: GREEN - Minimal implementation
-// Button.tsx
-type ButtonProps = {
-  label: string;
-  onClick?: () => void;
-};
-
-export const Button = ({ label, onClick }: ButtonProps) => {
-  return <button onClick={onClick}>{label}</button>;
-};
-
-// Run test: PASSES - Component renders and handles clicks
-
-// Step 3: REFACTOR - Improve implementation
-// Add disabled state, loading state, variants
-type ButtonProps = {
-  label: string;
-  onClick?: () => void;
-  disabled?: boolean;
-  loading?: boolean;
-  variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary' | 'danger';
-};
-
-export const Button = ({
-  label,
-  onClick,
-  disabled = false,
-  loading = false,
-  variant = 'primary'
-}: ButtonProps) => {
-  return (
-    <button
-      onClick={onClick}
-      disabled={disabled || loading}
-      className={`btn btn-${variant}`}
-      data-testid="button"
-    >
-      {loading ? <Spinner /> : label}
-    </button>
-  );
-};
-
-// Step 4: Expand tests for new features
-describe('Button Component', () => {
-  it('should render with label', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Click Me" />);
-    cy.contains('Click Me').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should call onClick when clicked', () => {
-    const onClickSpy = cy.stub().as('onClick');
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Submit" onClick={onClickSpy} />);
-
-    cy.get('button').click();
-    cy.get('@onClick').should('have.been.calledOnce');
-  });
-
-  it('should be disabled when disabled prop is true', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Submit" disabled={true} />);
-    cy.get('button').should('be.disabled');
-  });
-
-  it('should show spinner when loading', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Submit" loading={true} />);
-    cy.get('[data-testid="spinner"]').should('be.visible');
-    cy.get('button').should('be.disabled');
-  });
-
-  it('should apply variant styles', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Delete" variant="danger" />);
-    cy.get('button').should('have.class', 'btn-danger');
-  });
-});
-
-// Run tests: ALL PASS - Refactored component still works
-
-// Playwright Component Test equivalent
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react';
-import { Button } from './Button';
-
-test.describe('Button Component', () => {
-  test('should call onClick when clicked', async ({ mount }) => {
-    let clicked = false;
-    const component = await mount(
-      <Button label="Submit" onClick={() => { clicked = true; }} />
-    );
-
-    await component.getByRole('button').click();
-    expect(clicked).toBe(true);
-  });
-
-  test('should be disabled when loading', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Button label="Submit" loading={true} />);
-    await expect(component.getByRole('button')).toBeDisabled();
-    await expect(component.getByTestId('spinner')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Red: Write failing test first - clarifies requirements before coding
-- Green: Implement minimal code to pass - prevents over-engineering
-- Refactor: Improve code quality while keeping tests green
-- Expand: Add tests for new features after refactoring
-- Cycle repeats: Each new feature starts with a failing test
-
-### Example 2: Provider Isolation Pattern
-
-**Context**: When testing components that depend on context providers (React Query, Auth, Router), wrap them with required providers in each test to prevent state bleed between tests.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// test-utils/AllTheProviders.tsx
-import { FC, ReactNode } from 'react';
-import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from '@tanstack/react-query';
-import { BrowserRouter } from 'react-router-dom';
-import { AuthProvider } from '../contexts/AuthContext';
-
-type Props = {
-  children: ReactNode;
-  initialAuth?: { user: User | null; token: string | null };
-};
-
-export const AllTheProviders: FC<Props> = ({ children, initialAuth }) => {
-  // Create NEW QueryClient per test (prevent state bleed)
-  const queryClient = new QueryClient({
-    defaultOptions: {
-      queries: { retry: false },
-      mutations: { retry: false }
-    }
-  });
-
-  return (
-    <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
-      <BrowserRouter>
-        <AuthProvider initialAuth={initialAuth}>
-          {children}
-        </AuthProvider>
-      </BrowserRouter>
-    </QueryClientProvider>
-  );
-};
-
-// Cypress custom mount command
-// cypress/support/component.tsx
-import { mount } from 'cypress/react18';
-import { AllTheProviders } from '../../test-utils/AllTheProviders';
-
-Cypress.Commands.add('wrappedMount', (component, options = {}) => {
-  const { initialAuth, ...mountOptions } = options;
-
-  return mount(
-    <AllTheProviders initialAuth={initialAuth}>
-      {component}
-    </AllTheProviders>,
-    mountOptions
-  );
-});
-
-// Usage in tests
-// UserProfile.cy.tsx
-import { UserProfile } from './UserProfile';
-
-describe('UserProfile Component', () => {
-  it('should display user when authenticated', () => {
-    const user = { id: 1, name: 'John Doe', email: 'john@example.com' };
-
-    cy.wrappedMount(<UserProfile />, {
-      initialAuth: { user, token: 'fake-token' }
-    });
-
-    cy.contains('John Doe').should('be.visible');
-    cy.contains('john@example.com').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should show login prompt when not authenticated', () => {
-    cy.wrappedMount(<UserProfile />, {
-      initialAuth: { user: null, token: null }
-    });
-
-    cy.contains('Please log in').should('be.visible');
-  });
-});
-
-// Playwright Component Test with providers
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react';
-import { QueryClient, QueryClientProvider } from '@tanstack/react-query';
-import { UserProfile } from './UserProfile';
-import { AuthProvider } from '../contexts/AuthContext';
-
-test.describe('UserProfile Component', () => {
-  test('should display user when authenticated', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const user = { id: 1, name: 'John Doe', email: 'john@example.com' };
-    const queryClient = new QueryClient();
-
-    const component = await mount(
-      <QueryClientProvider client={queryClient}>
-        <AuthProvider initialAuth={{ user, token: 'fake-token' }}>
-          <UserProfile />
-        </AuthProvider>
-      </QueryClientProvider>
-    );
-
-    await expect(component.getByText('John Doe')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(component.getByText('john@example.com')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Create NEW providers per test (QueryClient, Router, Auth)
-- Prevents state pollution between tests
-- `initialAuth` prop allows testing different auth states
-- Custom mount command (`wrappedMount`) reduces boilerplate
-- Providers wrap component, not the entire test suite
-
-### Example 3: Accessibility Assertions
-
-**Context**: When testing components, validate accessibility alongside functionality using axe-core, ARIA roles, labels, and keyboard navigation.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Cypress with axe-core
-// cypress/support/component.tsx
-import 'cypress-axe';
-
-// Form.cy.tsx
-import { Form } from './Form';
-
-describe('Form Component Accessibility', () => {
-  beforeEach(() => {
-    cy.wrappedMount(<Form />);
-    cy.injectAxe(); // Inject axe-core
-  });
-
-  it('should have no accessibility violations', () => {
-    cy.checkA11y(); // Run axe scan
-  });
-
-  it('should have proper ARIA labels', () => {
-    cy.get('input[name="email"]').should('have.attr', 'aria-label', 'Email address');
-    cy.get('input[name="password"]').should('have.attr', 'aria-label', 'Password');
-    cy.get('button[type="submit"]').should('have.attr', 'aria-label', 'Submit form');
-  });
-
-  it('should support keyboard navigation', () => {
-    // Tab through form fields
-    cy.get('input[name="email"]').focus().type('test@example.com');
-    cy.realPress('Tab'); // cypress-real-events plugin
-    cy.focused().should('have.attr', 'name', 'password');
-
-    cy.focused().type('password123');
-    cy.realPress('Tab');
-    cy.focused().should('have.attr', 'type', 'submit');
-
-    cy.realPress('Enter'); // Submit via keyboard
-    cy.contains('Form submitted').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should announce errors to screen readers', () => {
-    cy.get('button[type="submit"]').click(); // Submit without data
-
-    // Error has role="alert" and aria-live="polite"
-    cy.get('[role="alert"]')
-      .should('be.visible')
-      .and('have.attr', 'aria-live', 'polite')
-      .and('contain', 'Email is required');
-  });
-
-  it('should have sufficient color contrast', () => {
-    cy.checkA11y(null, {
-      rules: {
-        'color-contrast': { enabled: true }
-      }
-    });
-  });
-});
-
-// Playwright with axe-playwright
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react';
-import AxeBuilder from '@axe-core/playwright';
-import { Form } from './Form';
-
-test.describe('Form Component Accessibility', () => {
-  test('should have no accessibility violations', async ({ mount, page }) => {
-    await mount(<Form />);
-
-    const accessibilityScanResults = await new AxeBuilder({ page })
-      .analyze();
-
-    expect(accessibilityScanResults.violations).toEqual([]);
-  });
-
-  test('should support keyboard navigation', async ({ mount, page }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Form />);
-
-    await component.getByLabel('Email address').fill('test@example.com');
-    await page.keyboard.press('Tab');
-
-    await expect(component.getByLabel('Password')).toBeFocused();
-
-    await component.getByLabel('Password').fill('password123');
-    await page.keyboard.press('Tab');
-
-    await expect(component.getByRole('button', { name: 'Submit form' })).toBeFocused();
-
-    await page.keyboard.press('Enter');
-    await expect(component.getByText('Form submitted')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Use `cy.checkA11y()` (Cypress) or `AxeBuilder` (Playwright) for automated accessibility scanning
-- Validate ARIA roles, labels, and live regions
-- Test keyboard navigation (Tab, Enter, Escape)
-- Ensure errors are announced to screen readers (`role="alert"`, `aria-live`)
-- Check color contrast meets WCAG standards
-
-### Example 4: Visual Regression Test
-
-**Context**: When testing components, capture screenshots to detect unintended visual changes. Use Playwright visual comparison or Cypress snapshot plugins.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Playwright visual regression
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react';
-import { Button } from './Button';
-
-test.describe('Button Visual Regression', () => {
-  test('should match primary button snapshot', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Button label="Primary" variant="primary" />);
-
-    // Capture and compare screenshot
-    await expect(component).toHaveScreenshot('button-primary.png');
-  });
-
-  test('should match secondary button snapshot', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Button label="Secondary" variant="secondary" />);
-    await expect(component).toHaveScreenshot('button-secondary.png');
-  });
-
-  test('should match disabled button snapshot', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Button label="Disabled" disabled={true} />);
-    await expect(component).toHaveScreenshot('button-disabled.png');
-  });
-
-  test('should match loading button snapshot', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Button label="Loading" loading={true} />);
-    await expect(component).toHaveScreenshot('button-loading.png');
-  });
-});
-
-// Cypress visual regression with percy or snapshot plugins
-import { Button } from './Button';
-
-describe('Button Visual Regression', () => {
-  it('should match primary button snapshot', () => {
-    cy.wrappedMount(<Button label="Primary" variant="primary" />);
-
-    // Option 1: Percy (cloud-based visual testing)
-    cy.percySnapshot('Button - Primary');
-
-    // Option 2: cypress-plugin-snapshots (local snapshots)
-    cy.get('button').toMatchImageSnapshot({
-      name: 'button-primary',
-      threshold: 0.01 // 1% threshold for pixel differences
-    });
-  });
-
-  it('should match hover state', () => {
-    cy.wrappedMount(<Button label="Hover Me" />);
-    cy.get('button').realHover(); // cypress-real-events
-    cy.percySnapshot('Button - Hover State');
-  });
-
-  it('should match focus state', () => {
-    cy.wrappedMount(<Button label="Focus Me" />);
-    cy.get('button').focus();
-    cy.percySnapshot('Button - Focus State');
-  });
-});
-
-// Playwright configuration for visual regression
-// playwright.config.ts
-export default defineConfig({
-  expect: {
-    toHaveScreenshot: {
-      maxDiffPixels: 100, // Allow 100 pixels difference
-      threshold: 0.2 // 20% threshold
-    }
-  },
-  use: {
-    screenshot: 'only-on-failure'
-  }
-});
-
-// Update snapshots when intentional changes are made
-// npx playwright test --update-snapshots
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Playwright: Use `toHaveScreenshot()` for built-in visual comparison
-- Cypress: Use Percy (cloud) or snapshot plugins (local) for visual testing
-- Capture different states: default, hover, focus, disabled, loading
-- Set threshold for acceptable pixel differences (avoid false positives)
-- Update snapshots when visual changes are intentional
-- Visual tests catch unintended CSS/layout regressions
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*atdd` (component test generation), `*automate` (component test expansion), `*framework` (component testing setup)
-- **Related fragments**:
-  - `test-quality.md` - Keep component tests <100 lines, isolated, focused
-  - `fixture-architecture.md` - Provider wrapping patterns, custom mount commands
-  - `data-factories.md` - Factory functions for component props
-  - `test-levels-framework.md` - When to use component tests vs E2E tests
-
-## TDD Workflow Summary
-
-**Red-Green-Refactor Cycle**:
-
-1. **Red**: Write failing test describing desired behavior
-2. **Green**: Implement minimal code to make test pass
-3. **Refactor**: Improve code quality, tests stay green
-4. **Repeat**: Each new feature starts with failing test
-
-**Component Test Checklist**:
-
-- [ ] Test renders with required props
-- [ ] Test user interactions (click, type, submit)
-- [ ] Test different states (loading, error, disabled)
-- [ ] Test accessibility (ARIA, keyboard navigation)
-- [ ] Test visual regression (snapshots)
-- [ ] Isolate with fresh providers (no state bleed)
-- [ ] Keep tests <100 lines (split by intent)

-# Contract Testing Essentials (Pact)
-
-## Principle
-
-Contract testing validates API contracts between consumer and provider services without requiring integrated end-to-end tests. Store consumer contracts alongside integration specs, version contracts semantically, and publish on every CI run. Provider verification before merge surfaces breaking changes immediately, while explicit fallback behavior (timeouts, retries, error payloads) captures resilience guarantees in contracts.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Traditional integration testing requires running both consumer and provider simultaneously, creating slow, flaky tests with complex setup. Contract testing decouples services: consumers define expectations (pact files), providers verify against those expectations independently. This enables parallel development, catches breaking changes early, and documents API behavior as executable specifications. Pair contract tests with API smoke tests to validate data mapping and UI rendering in tandem.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Pact Consumer Test (Frontend → Backend API)
-
-**Context**: React application consuming a user management API, defining expected interactions.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/contract/user-api.pact.spec.ts
-import { PactV3, MatchersV3 } from '@pact-foundation/pact';
-import { getUserById, createUser, User } from '@/api/user-service';
-
-const { like, eachLike, string, integer } = MatchersV3;
-
-/**
- * Consumer-Driven Contract Test
- * - Consumer (React app) defines expected API behavior
- * - Generates pact file for provider to verify
- * - Runs in isolation (no real backend required)
- */
-
-const provider = new PactV3({
-  consumer: 'user-management-web',
-  provider: 'user-api-service',
-  dir: './pacts', // Output directory for pact files
-  logLevel: 'warn',
-});
-
-describe('User API Contract', () => {
-  describe('GET /users/:id', () => {
-    it('should return user when user exists', async () => {
-      // Arrange: Define expected interaction
-      await provider
-        .given('user with id 1 exists') // Provider state
-        .uponReceiving('a request for user 1')
-        .withRequest({
-          method: 'GET',
-          path: '/users/1',
-          headers: {
-            Accept: 'application/json',
-            Authorization: like('Bearer token123'), // Matcher: any string
-          },
-        })
-        .willRespondWith({
-          status: 200,
-          headers: {

-            createdAt: string('2025-01-15T10:00:00Z'),

-          const user = await getUserById(1, {
-            baseURL: mockServer.url,
-            headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer token123' },

-          // Assert: Validate consumer behavior
-          expect(user).toEqual(

-          );
-        });
-    });
-

-          body: {

-            code: 'USER_NOT_FOUND',
-          },
-        })
-        .executeTest(async (mockServer) => {
-          // Act & Assert: Consumer handles 404 gracefully
-          await expect(getUserById(999, { baseURL: mockServer.url })).rejects.toThrow('User not found');
-        });
-    });
-  });
-
-  describe('POST /users', () => {
-    it('should create user and return 201', async () => {

-          status: 201,
-          headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
-          body: like({
-            id: integer(2),
-            name: string('Jane Smith'),
-            email: string('jane@example.com'),
-            role: string('admin'),
-            createdAt: string('2025-01-15T11:00:00Z'),
-          }),
-        })
-        .executeTest(async (mockServer) => {
-          const createdUser = await createUser(newUser, {
-            baseURL: mockServer.url,
-          });
-
-          expect(createdUser).toEqual(
-            expect.objectContaining({
-              id: expect.any(Number),
-              name: 'Jane Smith',
-              email: 'jane@example.com',
-              role: 'admin',
-            }),
-          );
-        });
-    });
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**package.json scripts**:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "test:contract": "jest tests/contract --testTimeout=30000",
-    "pact:publish": "pact-broker publish ./pacts --consumer-app-version=$GIT_SHA --broker-base-url=$PACT_BROKER_URL --broker-token=$PACT_BROKER_TOKEN"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Consumer-driven**: Frontend defines expectations, not backend
-- **Matchers**: `like`, `string`, `integer` for flexible matching
-- **Provider states**: given() sets up test preconditions
-- **Isolation**: No real backend needed, runs fast
-- **Pact generation**: Automatically creates JSON pact files

-### Example 2: Pact Provider Verification (Backend validates contracts)
-
-**Context**: Node.js/Express API verifying pacts published by consumers.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/contract/user-api.provider.spec.ts
-import { Verifier, VerifierOptions } from '@pact-foundation/pact';
-import { server } from '../../src/server'; // Your Express/Fastify app
-import { seedDatabase, resetDatabase } from '../support/db-helpers';
-
-/**
- * Provider Verification Test

- * - State handlers setup test data for each interaction
- * - Runs before merge to catch breaking changes

-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Automatic trigger**: Consumer pact changes trigger provider verification via webhook
-- **Branch tracking**: Pacts published per branch for feature testing
-- **can-i-deploy**: Safety gate before production deployment
-- **Record deployment**: Track which version is in each environment
-- **Parallel dev**: Consumer and provider teams work independently

-## Contract Testing Checklist
-
-Before implementing contract testing, verify:
-
-- [ ] **Pact Broker setup**: Hosted (Pactflow) or self-hosted broker configured
-- [ ] **Consumer tests**: Generate pacts in CI, publish to broker on merge
-- [ ] **Provider verification**: Runs on PR, verifies all consumer pacts
-- [ ] **State handlers**: Provider implements all given() states
-- [ ] **can-i-deploy**: Blocks deployment if contracts incompatible
-- [ ] **Webhooks configured**: Consumer changes trigger provider verification
-- [ ] **Retention policy**: Old pacts archived (keep 30 days, all production tags)
-- [ ] **Resilience tested**: Timeouts, retries, error codes in contracts
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- Used in workflows: `*automate` (integration test generation), `*ci` (contract CI setup)
-- Related fragments: `test-levels-framework.md`, `ci-burn-in.md`
-- Tools: Pact.js, Pact Broker (Pactflow or self-hosted), Pact CLI

-# Data Factories and API-First Setup
-
-## Principle
-
-Prefer factory functions that accept overrides and return complete objects (`createUser(overrides)`). Seed test state through APIs, tasks, or direct DB helpers before visiting the UI—never via slow UI interactions. UI is for validation only, not setup.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Static fixtures (JSON files, hardcoded objects) create brittle tests that:
-
-- Fail when schemas evolve (missing new required fields)
-- Cause collisions in parallel execution (same user IDs)
-- Hide test intent (what matters for _this_ test?)
-
-Dynamic factories with overrides provide:
-
-- **Parallel safety**: UUIDs and timestamps prevent collisions
-- **Schema evolution**: Defaults adapt to schema changes automatically
-- **Explicit intent**: Overrides show what matters for each test
-- **Speed**: API setup is 10-50x faster than UI
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Factory Function with Overrides
-
-**Context**: When creating test data, build factory functions with sensible defaults and explicit overrides. Use `faker` for dynamic values that prevent collisions.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// test-utils/factories/user-factory.ts
-import { faker } from '@faker-js/faker';
-
-type User = {
-  id: string;
-  email: string;
-  name: string;
-  role: 'user' | 'admin' | 'moderator';
-  createdAt: Date;
-  isActive: boolean;
-};
-
-export const createUser = (overrides: Partial<User> = {}): User => ({
-  id: faker.string.uuid(),
-  email: faker.internet.email(),
-  name: faker.person.fullName(),
-  role: 'user',
-  createdAt: new Date(),
-  isActive: true,
-  ...overrides,
-});
-
-// test-utils/factories/product-factory.ts
-type Product = {
-  id: string;
-  name: string;
-  price: number;
-  stock: number;
-  category: string;
-};
-
-export const createProduct = (overrides: Partial<Product> = {}): Product => ({
-  id: faker.string.uuid(),
-  name: faker.commerce.productName(),
-  price: parseFloat(faker.commerce.price()),
-  stock: faker.number.int({ min: 0, max: 100 }),
-  category: faker.commerce.department(),
-  ...overrides,
-});
-
-// Usage in tests:
-test('admin can delete users', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  // Default user
-  const user = createUser();
-
-  // Admin user (explicit override shows intent)
-  const admin = createUser({ role: 'admin' });
-
-  // Seed via API (fast!)
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: user });
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: admin });
-
-  // Now test UI behavior
-  await page.goto('/admin/users');
-  await page.click(`[data-testid="delete-user-${user.id}"]`);
-  await expect(page.getByText(`User ${user.name} deleted`)).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `Partial<User>` allows overriding any field without breaking type safety
-- Faker generates unique values—no collisions in parallel tests
-- Override shows test intent: `createUser({ role: 'admin' })` is explicit
-- Factory lives in `test-utils/factories/` for easy reuse
-
-### Example 2: Nested Factory Pattern
-
-**Context**: When testing relationships (orders with users and products), nest factories to create complete object graphs. Control relationship data explicitly.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// test-utils/factories/order-factory.ts
-import { createUser } from './user-factory';
-import { createProduct } from './product-factory';
-
-type OrderItem = {
-  product: Product;
-  quantity: number;
-  price: number;
-};
-
-type Order = {
-  id: string;
-  user: User;
-  items: OrderItem[];
-  total: number;
-  status: 'pending' | 'paid' | 'shipped' | 'delivered';
-  createdAt: Date;
-};
-
-export const createOrderItem = (overrides: Partial<OrderItem> = {}): OrderItem => {
-  const product = overrides.product || createProduct();
-  const quantity = overrides.quantity || faker.number.int({ min: 1, max: 5 });
-
-  return {
-    product,
-    quantity,
-    price: product.price * quantity,
-    ...overrides,
-  };
-};
-
-export const createOrder = (overrides: Partial<Order> = {}): Order => {
-  const items = overrides.items || [createOrderItem(), createOrderItem()];
-  const total = items.reduce((sum, item) => sum + item.price, 0);
-
-  return {
-    id: faker.string.uuid(),
-    user: overrides.user || createUser(),
-    items,
-    total,
-    status: 'pending',
-    createdAt: new Date(),
-    ...overrides,
-  };
-};
-
-// Usage in tests:
-test('user can view order details', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  const user = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-  const product1 = createProduct({ name: 'Widget A', price: 10.0 });
-  const product2 = createProduct({ name: 'Widget B', price: 15.0 });
-
-  // Explicit relationships
-  const order = createOrder({
-    user,
-    items: [
-      createOrderItem({ product: product1, quantity: 2 }), // $20
-      createOrderItem({ product: product2, quantity: 1 }), // $15
-    ],
-  });
-
-  // Seed via API
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: user });
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/products', data: product1 });
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/products', data: product2 });
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/orders', data: order });
-
-  // Test UI
-  await page.goto(`/orders/${order.id}`);
-  await expect(page.getByText('Widget A x 2')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByText('Widget B x 1')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByText('Total: $35.00')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Nested factories handle relationships (order → user, order → products)
-- Overrides cascade: provide custom user/products or use defaults
-- Calculated fields (total) derived automatically from nested data
-- Explicit relationships make test data clear and maintainable
-
-### Example 3: Factory with API Seeding
-
-**Context**: When tests need data setup, always use API calls or database tasks—never UI navigation. Wrap factory usage with seeding utilities for clean test setup.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/helpers/seed-helpers.ts
-import { APIRequestContext } from '@playwright/test';
-import { User, createUser } from '../../test-utils/factories/user-factory';
-import { Product, createProduct } from '../../test-utils/factories/product-factory';
-
-export async function seedUser(request: APIRequestContext, overrides: Partial<User> = {}): Promise<User> {
-  const user = createUser(overrides);
-
-  const response = await request.post('/api/users', {
-    data: user,
-  });
-
-  if (!response.ok()) {
-    throw new Error(`Failed to seed user: ${response.status()}`);
-  }
-
-  return user;
-}
-
-export async function seedProduct(request: APIRequestContext, overrides: Partial<Product> = {}): Promise<Product> {
-  const product = createProduct(overrides);
-
-  const response = await request.post('/api/products', {
-    data: product,
-  });
-
-  if (!response.ok()) {
-    throw new Error(`Failed to seed product: ${response.status()}`);
-  }
-
-  return product;
-}
-
-// Playwright globalSetup for shared data
-// playwright/support/global-setup.ts
-import { chromium, FullConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import { seedUser } from './helpers/seed-helpers';
-
-async function globalSetup(config: FullConfig) {
-  const browser = await chromium.launch();
-  const page = await browser.newPage();
-  const context = page.context();
-
-  // Seed admin user for all tests
-  const admin = await seedUser(context.request, {
-    email: 'admin@example.com',
-    role: 'admin',
-  });
-
-  // Save auth state for reuse
-  await context.storageState({ path: 'playwright/.auth/admin.json' });
-
-  await browser.close();
-}
-
-export default globalSetup;
-
-// Cypress equivalent with cy.task
-// cypress/support/tasks.ts
-export const seedDatabase = async (entity: string, data: unknown) => {
-  // Direct database insert or API call
-  if (entity === 'users') {
-    await db.users.create(data);
-  }
-  return null;
-};
-
-// Usage in Cypress tests:
-beforeEach(() => {
-  const user = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-  cy.task('db:seed', { entity: 'users', data: user });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- API seeding is 10-50x faster than UI-based setup
-- `globalSetup` seeds shared data once (e.g., admin user)
-- Per-test seeding uses `seedUser()` helpers for isolation
-- Cypress `cy.task` allows direct database access for speed
-
-### Example 4: Anti-Pattern - Hardcoded Test Data
-
-**Problem**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: Hardcoded test data
-test('user can login', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/login');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', 'test@test.com'); // Hardcoded
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123'); // Hardcoded
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit"]');
-
-  // What if this user already exists? Test fails in parallel runs.
-  // What if schema adds required fields? Test breaks.
-});
-
-// ❌ BAD: Static JSON fixtures
-// fixtures/users.json
-{
-  "users": [
-    { "id": 1, "email": "user1@test.com", "name": "User 1" },
-    { "id": 2, "email": "user2@test.com", "name": "User 2" }
-  ]
-}
-
-test('admin can delete user', async ({ page }) => {
-  const users = require('../fixtures/users.json');
-  // Brittle: IDs collide in parallel, schema drift breaks tests
-});
-```
-
-**Why It Fails**:
-
-- **Parallel collisions**: Hardcoded IDs (`id: 1`, `email: 'test@test.com'`) cause failures when tests run concurrently
-- **Schema drift**: Adding required fields (`phoneNumber`, `address`) breaks all tests using fixtures
-- **Hidden intent**: Does this test need `email: 'test@test.com'` specifically, or any email?
-- **Slow setup**: UI-based data creation is 10-50x slower than API
-
-**Better Approach**: Use factories
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ GOOD: Factory-based data
-test('user can login', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  const user = createUser({ email: 'unique@example.com', password: 'secure123' });
-
-  // Seed via API (fast, parallel-safe)
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: user });
-
-  // Test UI
-  await page.goto('/login');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', user.email);
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', user.password);
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit"]');
-
-  await expect(page).toHaveURL('/dashboard');
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Factories adapt to schema changes automatically
-// When `phoneNumber` becomes required, update factory once:
-export const createUser = (overrides: Partial<User> = {}): User => ({
-  id: faker.string.uuid(),
-  email: faker.internet.email(),
-  name: faker.person.fullName(),
-  phoneNumber: faker.phone.number(), // NEW field, all tests get it automatically
-  role: 'user',
-  ...overrides,
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Factories generate unique, parallel-safe data
-- Schema evolution handled in one place (factory), not every test
-- Test intent explicit via overrides
-- API seeding is fast and reliable
-
-### Example 5: Factory Composition
-
-**Context**: When building specialized factories, compose simpler factories instead of duplicating logic. Layer overrides for specific test scenarios.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// test-utils/factories/user-factory.ts (base)
-export const createUser = (overrides: Partial<User> = {}): User => ({
-  id: faker.string.uuid(),
-  email: faker.internet.email(),
-  name: faker.person.fullName(),
-  role: 'user',
-  createdAt: new Date(),
-  isActive: true,
-  ...overrides,
-});
-
-// Compose specialized factories
-export const createAdminUser = (overrides: Partial<User> = {}): User => createUser({ role: 'admin', ...overrides });
-
-export const createModeratorUser = (overrides: Partial<User> = {}): User => createUser({ role: 'moderator', ...overrides });
-
-export const createInactiveUser = (overrides: Partial<User> = {}): User => createUser({ isActive: false, ...overrides });
-
-// Account-level factories with feature flags
-type Account = {
-  id: string;
-  owner: User;
-  plan: 'free' | 'pro' | 'enterprise';
-  features: string[];
-  maxUsers: number;
-};
-
-export const createAccount = (overrides: Partial<Account> = {}): Account => ({
-  id: faker.string.uuid(),
-  owner: overrides.owner || createUser(),
-  plan: 'free',
-  features: [],
-  maxUsers: 1,
-  ...overrides,
-});
-
-export const createProAccount = (overrides: Partial<Account> = {}): Account =>
-  createAccount({
-    plan: 'pro',
-    features: ['advanced-analytics', 'priority-support'],
-    maxUsers: 10,
-    ...overrides,
-  });
-
-export const createEnterpriseAccount = (overrides: Partial<Account> = {}): Account =>
-  createAccount({
-    plan: 'enterprise',
-    features: ['advanced-analytics', 'priority-support', 'sso', 'audit-logs'],
-    maxUsers: 100,
-    ...overrides,
-  });
-
-// Usage in tests:
-test('pro accounts can access analytics', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  const admin = createAdminUser({ email: 'admin@company.com' });
-  const account = createProAccount({ owner: admin });
-
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: admin });
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/accounts', data: account });
-
-  await page.goto('/analytics');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Advanced Analytics')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-test('free accounts cannot access analytics', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  const user = createUser({ email: 'user@company.com' });
-  const account = createAccount({ owner: user }); // Defaults to free plan
-
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: user });
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/accounts', data: account });
-
-  await page.goto('/analytics');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Upgrade to Pro')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Compose specialized factories from base factories (`createAdminUser` → `createUser`)
-- Defaults cascade: `createProAccount` sets plan + features automatically
-- Still allow overrides: `createProAccount({ maxUsers: 50 })` works
-- Test intent clear: `createProAccount()` vs `createAccount({ plan: 'pro', features: [...] })`
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*atdd` (test generation), `*automate` (test expansion), `*framework` (factory setup)
-- **Related fragments**:
-  - `fixture-architecture.md` - Pure functions and fixtures for factory integration
-  - `network-first.md` - API-first setup patterns
-  - `test-quality.md` - Parallel-safe, deterministic test design
-
-## Cleanup Strategy
-
-Ensure factories work with cleanup patterns:
-
-```typescript
-// Track created IDs for cleanup
-const createdUsers: string[] = [];
-
-afterEach(async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  // Clean up all users created during test
-  for (const userId of createdUsers) {
-    await apiRequest({ method: 'DELETE', url: `/api/users/${userId}` });
-  }
-  createdUsers.length = 0;
-});
-
-test('user registration flow', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  const user = createUser();
-  createdUsers.push(user.id);
-
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'POST', url: '/api/users', data: user });
-  // ... test logic
-});
-```
-
-## Feature Flag Integration
-
-When working with feature flags, layer them into factories:
-
-```typescript
-export const createUserWithFlags = (
-  overrides: Partial<User> = {},
-  flags: Record<string, boolean> = {},
-): User & { flags: Record<string, boolean> } => ({
-  ...createUser(overrides),
-  flags: {
-    'new-dashboard': false,
-    'beta-features': false,
-    ...flags,
-  },
-});
-
-// Usage:
-const user = createUserWithFlags(
-  { email: 'test@example.com' },
-  {
-    'new-dashboard': true,
-    'beta-features': true,
-  },
-);
-```

-# Email-Based Authentication Testing
-
-## Principle
-
-Email-based authentication (magic links, one-time codes, passwordless login) requires specialized testing with email capture services like Mailosaur or Ethereal. Extract magic links via HTML parsing or use built-in link extraction, preserve browser storage (local/session/cookies) when processing links, cache email payloads to avoid exhausting inbox quotas, and cover negative cases (expired links, reused links, multiple rapid requests). Log email IDs and links for troubleshooting, but scrub PII before committing artifacts.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Email authentication introduces unique challenges: asynchronous email delivery, quota limits (AWS Cognito: 50/day), cost per email, and complex state management (session preservation across link clicks). Without proper patterns, tests become slow (wait for email each time), expensive (quota exhaustion), and brittle (timing issues, missing state). Using email capture services + session caching + state preservation patterns makes email auth tests fast, reliable, and cost-effective.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Magic Link Extraction with Mailosaur
-
-**Context**: Passwordless login flow where user receives magic link via email, clicks it, and is authenticated.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/magic-link-auth.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-/**
- * Magic Link Authentication Flow
- * 1. User enters email
- * 2. Backend sends magic link
- * 3. Test retrieves email via Mailosaur
- * 4. Extract and visit magic link
- * 5. Verify user is authenticated
- */
-
-// Mailosaur configuration
-const MAILOSAUR_API_KEY = process.env.MAILOSAUR_API_KEY!;
-const MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID = process.env.MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID!;
-
-/**
- * Extract href from HTML email body
- * DOMParser provides XML/HTML parsing in Node.js
- */
-function extractMagicLink(htmlString: string): string | null {
-  const { JSDOM } = require('jsdom');
-  const dom = new JSDOM(htmlString);
-  const link = dom.window.document.querySelector('#magic-link-button');
-  return link ? (link as HTMLAnchorElement).href : null;
-}
-
-/**
- * Alternative: Use Mailosaur's built-in link extraction
- * Mailosaur automatically parses links - no regex needed!
- */
-async function getMagicLinkFromEmail(email: string): Promise<string> {
-  const MailosaurClient = require('mailosaur');
-  const mailosaur = new MailosaurClient(MAILOSAUR_API_KEY);
-
-  // Wait for email (timeout: 30 seconds)
-  const message = await mailosaur.messages.get(
-    MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID,
-    {
-      sentTo: email,
-    },
-    {
-      timeout: 30000, // 30 seconds
-    },
-  );
-
-  // Mailosaur extracts links automatically - no parsing needed!
-  const magicLink = message.html?.links?.[0]?.href;
-
-  if (!magicLink) {
-    throw new Error(`Magic link not found in email to ${email}`);
-  }
-
-  console.log(`📧 Email received. Magic link extracted: ${magicLink}`);
-  return magicLink;
-}
-
-test.describe('Magic Link Authentication', () => {
-  test('should authenticate user via magic link', async ({ page, context }) => {
-    // Arrange: Generate unique test email
-    const randomId = Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000000);
-    const testEmail = `user-${randomId}@${MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID}.mailosaur.net`;
-
-    // Act: Request magic link
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.getByTestId('email-input').fill(testEmail);
-    await page.getByTestId('send-magic-link').click();
-
-    // Assert: Success message
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('check-email-message')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('check-email-message')).toContainText('Check your email');
-
-    // Retrieve magic link from email
-    const magicLink = await getMagicLinkFromEmail(testEmail);
-
-    // Visit magic link
-    await page.goto(magicLink);
-
-    // Assert: User is authenticated

-
-    // Verify session storage preserved
-    const localStorage = await page.evaluate(() => JSON.stringify(window.localStorage));
-    expect(localStorage).toContain('authToken');
-  });
-
-  test('should handle expired magic link', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Use pre-expired link (older than 15 minutes)
-    const expiredLink = 'http://localhost:3000/auth/verify?token=expired-token-123';
-
-    await page.goto(expiredLink);
-
-    // Assert: Error message displayed
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('error-message')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('error-message')).toContainText('link has expired');
-
-    // Assert: User NOT authenticated
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('user-menu')).not.toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('should prevent reusing magic link', async ({ page }) => {
-    const randomId = Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000000);
-    const testEmail = `user-${randomId}@${MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID}.mailosaur.net`;
-
-    // Request magic link
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.getByTestId('email-input').fill(testEmail);
-    await page.getByTestId('send-magic-link').click();
-
-    const magicLink = await getMagicLinkFromEmail(testEmail);
-
-    // Visit link first time (success)
-    await page.goto(magicLink);
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('user-menu')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Sign out
-    await page.getByTestId('sign-out').click();
-
-    // Try to reuse same link (should fail)
-    await page.goto(magicLink);
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('error-message')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('error-message')).toContainText('link has already been used');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Cypress equivalent with Mailosaur plugin**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/e2e/magic-link-auth.cy.ts
-describe('Magic Link Authentication', () => {
-  it('should authenticate user via magic link', () => {
-    const serverId = Cypress.env('MAILOSAUR_SERVERID');
-    const randomId = Cypress._.random(1e6);
-    const testEmail = `user-${randomId}@${serverId}.mailosaur.net`;
-
-    // Request magic link
-    cy.visit('/login');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="email-input"]').type(testEmail);
-    cy.get('[data-cy="send-magic-link"]').click();
-    cy.get('[data-cy="check-email-message"]').should('be.visible');
-
-    // Retrieve and visit magic link
-    cy.mailosaurGetMessage(serverId, { sentTo: testEmail })
-      .its('html.links.0.href') // Mailosaur extracts links automatically!
-      .should('exist')
-      .then((magicLink) => {
-        cy.log(`Magic link: ${magicLink}`);
-        cy.visit(magicLink);
-      });
-
-    // Verify authenticated
-    cy.get('[data-cy="user-menu"]').should('be.visible');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="user-email"]').should('contain', testEmail);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Mailosaur auto-extraction**: `html.links[0].href` or `html.codes[0].value`
-- **Unique emails**: Random ID prevents collisions
-- **Negative testing**: Expired and reused links tested
-- **State verification**: localStorage/session checked
-- **Fast email retrieval**: 30 second timeout typical
-
----
-
-### Example 2: State Preservation Pattern with cy.session / Playwright storageState
-
-**Context**: Cache authenticated session to avoid requesting magic link on every test.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/fixtures/email-auth-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { getMagicLinkFromEmail } from '../support/mailosaur-helpers';
-
-type EmailAuthFixture = {
-  authenticatedUser: { email: string; token: string };
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<EmailAuthFixture>({
-  authenticatedUser: async ({ page, context }, use) => {
-    const randomId = Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000000);
-    const testEmail = `user-${randomId}@${process.env.MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID}.mailosaur.net`;
-
-    // Check if we have cached auth state for this email
-    const storageStatePath = `./test-results/auth-state-${testEmail}.json`;
-
-    try {
-      // Try to reuse existing session
-      await context.storageState({ path: storageStatePath });
-      await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-      // Validate session is still valid
-      const isAuthenticated = await page.getByTestId('user-menu').isVisible({ timeout: 2000 });
-
-      if (isAuthenticated) {
-        console.log(`✅ Reusing cached session for ${testEmail}`);
-        await use({ email: testEmail, token: 'cached' });
-        return;
-      }
-    } catch (error) {
-      console.log(`📧 No cached session, requesting magic link for ${testEmail}`);
-    }
-
-    // Request new magic link
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.getByTestId('email-input').fill(testEmail);
-    await page.getByTestId('send-magic-link').click();
-
-    // Get magic link from email
-    const magicLink = await getMagicLinkFromEmail(testEmail);
-
-    // Visit link and authenticate
-    await page.goto(magicLink);
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('user-menu')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Extract auth token from localStorage
-    const authToken = await page.evaluate(() => localStorage.getItem('authToken'));
-
-    // Save session state for reuse
-    await context.storageState({ path: storageStatePath });
-
-    console.log(`💾 Cached session for ${testEmail}`);
-
-    await use({ email: testEmail, token: authToken || '' });
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Cypress equivalent with cy.session + data-session**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/support/commands/email-auth.js
-import { dataSession } from 'cypress-data-session';
-
-/**
- * Authenticate via magic link with session caching
- * - First run: Requests email, extracts link, authenticates
- * - Subsequent runs: Reuses cached session (no email)
- */
-Cypress.Commands.add('authViaMagicLink', (email) => {
-  return dataSession({
-    name: `magic-link-${email}`,
-
-    // First-time setup: Request and process magic link
-    setup: () => {
-      cy.visit('/login');
-      cy.get('[data-cy="email-input"]').type(email);
-      cy.get('[data-cy="send-magic-link"]').click();
-
-      // Get magic link from Mailosaur
-      cy.mailosaurGetMessage(Cypress.env('MAILOSAUR_SERVERID'), {
-        sentTo: email,
-      })
-        .its('html.links.0.href')
-        .should('exist')
-        .then((magicLink) => {
-          cy.visit(magicLink);
-        });
-
-      // Wait for authentication
-      cy.get('[data-cy="user-menu"]', { timeout: 10000 }).should('be.visible');
-
-      // Preserve authentication state
-      return cy.getAllLocalStorage().then((storage) => {
-        return { storage, email };
-      });
-    },
-
-    // Validate cached session is still valid
-    validate: (cached) => {
-      return cy.wrap(Boolean(cached?.storage));
-    },
-
-    // Recreate session from cache (no email needed)
-    recreate: (cached) => {
-      // Restore localStorage
-      cy.setLocalStorage(cached.storage);
-      cy.visit('/dashboard');
-      cy.get('[data-cy="user-menu"]', { timeout: 5000 }).should('be.visible');
-    },
-
-    shareAcrossSpecs: true, // Share session across all tests
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Usage in tests**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/e2e/dashboard.cy.ts
-describe('Dashboard', () => {
-  const serverId = Cypress.env('MAILOSAUR_SERVERID');
-  const testEmail = `test-user@${serverId}.mailosaur.net`;
-
-  beforeEach(() => {
-    // First test: Requests magic link
-    // Subsequent tests: Reuses cached session (no email!)
-    cy.authViaMagicLink(testEmail);
-  });
-
-  it('should display user dashboard', () => {
-    cy.get('[data-cy="dashboard-content"]').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should show user profile', () => {
-    cy.get('[data-cy="user-email"]').should('contain', testEmail);
-  });
-
-  // Both tests share same session - only 1 email consumed!
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Session caching**: First test requests email, rest reuse session
-- **State preservation**: localStorage/cookies saved and restored
-- **Validation**: Check cached session is still valid
-- **Quota optimization**: Massive reduction in email consumption
-- **Fast tests**: Cached auth takes seconds vs. minutes

-
-### Example 3: Negative Flow Tests (Expired, Invalid, Reused Links)
-
-**Context**: Comprehensive negative testing for email authentication edge cases.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/email-auth-negative.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-import { getMagicLinkFromEmail } from '../support/mailosaur-helpers';
-
-const MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID = process.env.MAILOSAUR_SERVER_ID!;
-
-test.describe('Email Auth Negative Flows', () => {
-  test('should reject expired magic link', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Generate expired link (simulate 24 hours ago)
-    const expiredToken = Buffer.from(

-- **Reuse prevention**: Same link can't be used twice
-- **Rapid requests**: Multiple requests handled gracefully
-- **Rate limiting**: Excessive requests blocked

-### Example 4: Caching Strategy with cypress-data-session / Playwright Projects
-
-**Context**: Minimize email consumption by sharing authentication state across tests and specs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/support/commands/register-and-sign-in.js
-import { dataSession } from 'cypress-data-session';
-
-/**
- * Email Authentication Caching Strategy
- * - One email per test run (not per spec, not per test)
- * - First spec: Full registration flow (form → email → code → sign in)
- * - Subsequent specs: Only sign in (reuse user)
- * - Subsequent tests in same spec: Session already active (no sign in)
- */
-
-// Helper: Fill registration form
-function fillRegistrationForm({ fullName, userName, email, password }) {
-  cy.intercept('POST', 'https://cognito-idp*').as('cognito');
-  cy.contains('Register').click();
-  cy.get('#reg-dialog-form').should('be.visible');
-  cy.get('#first-name').type(fullName, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.get('#last-name').type(lastName, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.get('#email').type(email, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.get('#username').type(userName, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.get('#password').type(password, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.contains('button', 'Create an account').click();
-  cy.wait('@cognito').its('response.statusCode').should('equal', 200);
-}
-
-// Helper: Confirm registration with email code
-function confirmRegistration(email) {
-  return cy
-    .mailosaurGetMessage(Cypress.env('MAILOSAUR_SERVERID'), { sentTo: email })
-    .its('html.codes.0.value') // Mailosaur auto-extracts codes!
-    .then((code) => {
-      cy.intercept('POST', 'https://cognito-idp*').as('cognito');
-      cy.get('#verification-code').type(code, { delay: 0 });
-      cy.contains('button', 'Confirm registration').click();
-      cy.wait('@cognito');
-      cy.contains('You are now registered!').should('be.visible');
-      cy.contains('button', /ok/i).click();
-      return cy.wrap(code); // Return code for reference
-    });
-}
-
-// Helper: Full registration (form + email)
-function register({ fullName, userName, email, password }) {
-  fillRegistrationForm({ fullName, userName, email, password });
-  return confirmRegistration(email);
-}
-
-// Helper: Sign in
-function signIn({ userName, password }) {
-  cy.intercept('POST', 'https://cognito-idp*').as('cognito');
-  cy.contains('Sign in').click();
-  cy.get('#sign-in-username').type(userName, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.get('#sign-in-password').type(password, { delay: 0 });
-  cy.contains('button', 'Sign in').click();
-  cy.wait('@cognito');
-  cy.contains('Sign out').should('be.visible');
-}
-
-/**
- * Register and sign in with email caching
- * ONE EMAIL PER MACHINE (cypress run or cypress open)
- */
-Cypress.Commands.add('registerAndSignIn', ({ fullName, userName, email, password }) => {
-  return dataSession({
-    name: email, // Unique session per email
-
-    // First time: Full registration (form → email → code)
-    init: () => register({ fullName, userName, email, password }),
-
-    // Subsequent specs: Just check email exists (code already used)
-    setup: () => confirmRegistration(email),
-

-    recreate: () => signIn({ userName, password }),
-
-    // Share across ALL specs (one email for entire test run)
-    shareAcrossSpecs: true,
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Usage across multiple specs**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/e2e/place-order.cy.ts
-describe('Place Order', () => {
-  beforeEach(() => {
-    cy.visit('/');
-    cy.registerAndSignIn({
-      fullName: Cypress.env('fullName'), // From cypress.config
-      userName: Cypress.env('userName'),
-      email: Cypress.env('email'), // SAME email across all specs
-      password: Cypress.env('password'),
-    });
-  });
-
-  it('should place order', () => {
-    /* ... */
-  });
-  it('should view order history', () => {
-    /* ... */
-  });
-});
-
-// cypress/e2e/profile.cy.ts
-describe('User Profile', () => {
-  beforeEach(() => {
-    cy.visit('/');
-    cy.registerAndSignIn({
-      fullName: Cypress.env('fullName'),
-      userName: Cypress.env('userName'),
-      email: Cypress.env('email'), // SAME email - no new email sent!
-      password: Cypress.env('password'),
-    });
-  });
-
-  it('should update profile', () => {
-    /* ... */
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Playwright equivalent with storageState**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  projects: [
-    {
-      name: 'setup',
-      testMatch: /global-setup\.ts/,
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'authenticated',
-      testMatch: /.*\.spec\.ts/,
-      dependencies: ['setup'],
-      use: {
-        storageState: '.auth/user-session.json', // Reuse auth state
-      },
-    },
-  ],
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// tests/global-setup.ts (runs once)
-import { test as setup } from '@playwright/test';
-import { getMagicLinkFromEmail } from './support/mailosaur-helpers';
-
-const authFile = '.auth/user-session.json';
-
-setup('authenticate via magic link', async ({ page }) => {
-  const testEmail = process.env.TEST_USER_EMAIL!;
-
-  // Request magic link
-  await page.goto('/login');
-  await page.getByTestId('email-input').fill(testEmail);
-  await page.getByTestId('send-magic-link').click();
-
-  // Get and visit magic link
-  const magicLink = await getMagicLinkFromEmail(testEmail);
-  await page.goto(magicLink);
-
-  // Verify authenticated
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('user-menu')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Save authenticated state (ONE TIME for all tests)
-  await page.context().storageState({ path: authFile });
-
-  console.log('✅ Authentication state saved to', authFile);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **One email per run**: Global setup authenticates once
-- **State reuse**: All tests use cached storageState
-- **cypress-data-session**: Intelligently manages cache lifecycle
-- **shareAcrossSpecs**: Session shared across all spec files
-- **Massive savings**: 500 tests = 1 email (not 500!)
-

-
-## Email Authentication Testing Checklist
-
-Before implementing email auth tests, verify:
-
-- [ ] **Email service**: Mailosaur/Ethereal/MailHog configured with API keys
-- [ ] **Link extraction**: Use built-in parsing (html.links[0].href) over regex
-- [ ] **State preservation**: localStorage/session/cookies saved and restored
-- [ ] **Session caching**: cypress-data-session or storageState prevents redundant emails
-- [ ] **Negative flows**: Expired, invalid, reused, rapid requests tested
-- [ ] **Quota awareness**: One email per run (not per test)
-- [ ] **PII scrubbing**: Email IDs logged for debug, but scrubbed from artifacts
-- [ ] **Timeout handling**: 30 second email retrieval timeout configured
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- Used in workflows: `*framework` (email auth setup), `*automate` (email auth test generation)
-- Related fragments: `fixture-architecture.md`, `test-quality.md`
-- Email services: Mailosaur (recommended), Ethereal (free), MailHog (self-hosted)
-- Plugins: cypress-mailosaur, cypress-data-session

-# Error Handling and Resilience Checks
-
-## Principle
-
-Treat expected failures explicitly: intercept network errors, assert UI fallbacks (error messages visible, retries triggered), and use scoped exception handling to ignore known errors while catching regressions. Test retry/backoff logic by forcing sequential failures (500 → timeout → success) and validate telemetry logging. Log captured errors with context (request payload, user/session) but redact secrets to keep artifacts safe for sharing.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Tests fail for two reasons: genuine bugs or poor error handling in the test itself. Without explicit error handling patterns, tests become noisy (uncaught exceptions cause false failures) or silent (swallowing all errors hides real bugs). Scoped exception handling (Cypress.on('uncaught:exception'), page.on('pageerror')) allows tests to ignore documented, expected errors while surfacing unexpected ones. Resilience testing (retry logic, graceful degradation) ensures applications handle failures gracefully in production.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Scoped Exception Handling (Expected Errors Only)
-
-**Context**: Handle known errors (Network failures, expected 500s) without masking unexpected bugs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/error-handling.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-/**
- * Scoped Error Handling Pattern
- * - Only ignore specific, documented errors
- * - Rethrow everything else to catch regressions
- * - Validate error UI and user experience
- */
-
-test.describe('API Error Handling', () => {
-  test('should display error message when API returns 500', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Scope error handling to THIS test only
-    const consoleErrors: string[] = [];
-    page.on('pageerror', (error) => {
-      // Only swallow documented NetworkError
-      if (error.message.includes('NetworkError: Failed to fetch')) {
-        consoleErrors.push(error.message);
-        return; // Swallow this specific error
-      }
-      // Rethrow all other errors (catch regressions!)
-      throw error;
-    });
-
-    // Arrange: Mock 500 error response
-    await page.route('**/api/users', (route) =>
-      route.fulfill({
-        status: 500,
-        contentType: 'application/json',
-        body: JSON.stringify({
-          error: 'Internal server error',

-        }),
-      }),
-    );

-    // Assert: Error UI displayed
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('error-message')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('error-message')).toContainText(/error.*loading|failed.*load/i);
-
-    // Assert: Retry button visible
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('retry-button')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Assert: NetworkError was thrown and caught
-    expect(consoleErrors).toContainEqual(expect.stringContaining('NetworkError'));
-  });
-
-  test('should NOT swallow unexpected errors', async ({ page }) => {
-    let unexpectedError: Error | null = null;
-
-    page.on('pageerror', (error) => {
-      // Capture but don't swallow - test should fail
-      unexpectedError = error;
-      throw error;
-    });
-
-    // Arrange: App has JavaScript error (bug)
-    await page.addInitScript(() => {
-      // Simulate bug in app code
-      (window as any).buggyFunction = () => {
-        throw new Error('UNEXPECTED BUG: undefined is not a function');
-      };
-    });
-
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // Trigger buggy function
-    await page.evaluate(() => (window as any).buggyFunction());
-
-    // Assert: Test fails because unexpected error was NOT swallowed
-    expect(unexpectedError).not.toBeNull();
-    expect(unexpectedError?.message).toContain('UNEXPECTED BUG');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Cypress equivalent**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/e2e/error-handling.cy.ts
-describe('API Error Handling', () => {
-  it('should display error message when API returns 500', () => {
-    // Scoped to this test only

-      // Only swallow documented NetworkError
-      if (err.message.includes('NetworkError')) {
-        return false; // Prevent test failure
-      }
-      // All other errors fail the test
-      return true;
-    });
-
-    // Arrange: Mock 500 error
-    cy.intercept('GET', '**/api/users', {
-      statusCode: 500,
-      body: {
-        error: 'Internal server error',
-        code: 'INTERNAL_ERROR',
-      },
-    }).as('getUsers');
-
-    // Act
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-    cy.wait('@getUsers');
-
-    // Assert: Error UI
-    cy.get('[data-cy="error-message"]').should('be.visible');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="error-message"]').should('contain', 'error loading');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="retry-button"]').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should NOT swallow unexpected errors', () => {
-    // No exception handler - test should fail on unexpected errors
-
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-
-    // Trigger unexpected error
-    cy.window().then((win) => {
-      // This should fail the test
-      win.eval('throw new Error("UNEXPECTED BUG")');
-    });
-
-    // Test fails (as expected) - validates error detection works
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Scoped handling**: page.on() / cy.on() scoped to specific tests
-- **Explicit allow-list**: Only ignore documented errors
-- **Rethrow unexpected**: Catch regressions by failing on unknown errors
-- **Error UI validation**: Assert user sees error message
-- **Logging**: Capture errors for debugging, don't swallow silently

-**Cypress with retry interception**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/e2e/retry-resilience.cy.ts
-describe('Network Retry Logic', () => {
-  it('should retry on 500 and succeed on 3rd attempt', () => {
-    let attemptCount = 0;
-
-    cy.intercept('GET', '**/api/products', (req) => {
-      attemptCount++;
-
-      if (attemptCount <= 2) {
-        req.reply({ statusCode: 500, body: { error: 'Server error' } });
-      } else {
-        req.reply({ statusCode: 200, body: { products: [{ id: 1, name: 'Product 1' }] } });
-      }
-    }).as('getProducts');
-
-    cy.visit('/products');
-
-    // Wait for final successful request
-    cy.wait('@getProducts').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
-
-    // Assert: Data loaded
-    cy.get('[data-cy="product-list"]').should('be.visible');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="product-item"]').should('have.length', 1);
-
-    // Validate retry count
-    cy.wrap(attemptCount).should('eq', 3);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Sequential failures**: Test retry logic with 500 → 500 → 200
-- **Backoff timing**: Validate exponential backoff delays
-- **Retry limits**: Max attempts enforced (typically 3)
-- **Non-retryable errors**: 404s don't trigger retries
-- **Telemetry**: Log retry attempts for monitoring

-## Error Handling Testing Checklist
-
-Before shipping error handling code, verify:
-
-- [ ] **Scoped exception handling**: Only ignore documented errors (NetworkError, specific codes)
-- [ ] **Rethrow unexpected**: Unknown errors fail tests (catch regressions)
-- [ ] **Error UI tested**: User sees error messages for all error states
-- [ ] **Retry logic validated**: Sequential failures test backoff and max attempts
-- [ ] **Telemetry verified**: Errors logged with context (endpoint, status, user)
-- [ ] **Secret redaction**: Logs don't contain passwords, tokens, PII
-- [ ] **Graceful degradation**: Critical services down, app shows fallback UI
-- [ ] **Non-critical failures**: Analytics/tracking failures don't block app
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- Used in workflows: `*automate` (error handling test generation), `*test-review` (error pattern detection)
-- Related fragments: `network-first.md`, `test-quality.md`, `contract-testing.md`
-- Monitoring tools: Sentry, Datadog, LogRocket

-# Feature Flag Governance
-
-## Principle
-
-Feature flags enable controlled rollouts and A/B testing, but require disciplined testing governance. Centralize flag definitions in a frozen enum, test both enabled and disabled states, clean up targeting after each spec, and maintain a comprehensive flag lifecycle checklist. For LaunchDarkly-style systems, script API helpers to seed variations programmatically rather than manual UI mutations.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Poorly managed feature flags become technical debt: untested variations ship broken code, forgotten flags clutter the codebase, and shared environments become unstable from leftover targeting rules. Structured governance ensures flags are testable, traceable, temporary, and safe. Testing both states prevents surprises when flags flip in production.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Feature Flag Enum Pattern with Type Safety
-
-**Context**: Centralized flag management with TypeScript type safety and runtime validation.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// src/utils/feature-flags.ts
-/**
- * Centralized feature flag definitions
- * - Object.freeze prevents runtime modifications
- * - TypeScript ensures compile-time type safety
- * - Single source of truth for all flag keys
- */
-export const FLAGS = Object.freeze({
-  // User-facing features
-  NEW_CHECKOUT_FLOW: 'new-checkout-flow',
-  DARK_MODE: 'dark-mode',
-  ENHANCED_SEARCH: 'enhanced-search',
-
-  // Experiments
-  PRICING_EXPERIMENT_A: 'pricing-experiment-a',
-  HOMEPAGE_VARIANT_B: 'homepage-variant-b',
-
-  // Infrastructure
-  USE_NEW_API_ENDPOINT: 'use-new-api-endpoint',
-  ENABLE_ANALYTICS_V2: 'enable-analytics-v2',
-
-  // Killswitches (emergency disables)
-  DISABLE_PAYMENT_PROCESSING: 'disable-payment-processing',
-  DISABLE_EMAIL_NOTIFICATIONS: 'disable-email-notifications',
-} as const);
-
-/**
- * Type-safe flag keys
- * Prevents typos and ensures autocomplete in IDEs
- */
-export type FlagKey = (typeof FLAGS)[keyof typeof FLAGS];
-
-/**
- * Flag metadata for governance
- */
-type FlagMetadata = {
-  key: FlagKey;
-  name: string;
-  owner: string;
-  createdDate: string;
-  expiryDate?: string;
-  defaultState: boolean;
-  requiresCleanup: boolean;
-  dependencies?: FlagKey[];
-  telemetryEvents?: string[];
-};
-
-/**
- * Flag registry with governance metadata
- * Used for flag lifecycle tracking and cleanup alerts
- */
-export const FLAG_REGISTRY: Record<FlagKey, FlagMetadata> = {
-  [FLAGS.NEW_CHECKOUT_FLOW]: {
-    key: FLAGS.NEW_CHECKOUT_FLOW,
-    name: 'New Checkout Flow',
-    owner: 'payments-team',
-    createdDate: '2025-01-15',
-    expiryDate: '2025-03-15',
-    defaultState: false,
-    requiresCleanup: true,
-    dependencies: [FLAGS.USE_NEW_API_ENDPOINT],
-    telemetryEvents: ['checkout_started', 'checkout_completed'],
-  },
-  [FLAGS.DARK_MODE]: {
-    key: FLAGS.DARK_MODE,
-    name: 'Dark Mode UI',
-    owner: 'frontend-team',
-    createdDate: '2025-01-10',
-    defaultState: false,
-    requiresCleanup: false, // Permanent feature toggle
-  },
-  // ... rest of registry
-};
-
-/**
- * Validate flag exists in registry
- * Throws at runtime if flag is unregistered
- */
-export function validateFlag(flag: string): asserts flag is FlagKey {
-  if (!Object.values(FLAGS).includes(flag as FlagKey)) {
-    throw new Error(`Unregistered feature flag: ${flag}`);
-  }
-}
-
-/**
- * Check if flag is expired (needs removal)
- */
-export function isFlagExpired(flag: FlagKey): boolean {
-  const metadata = FLAG_REGISTRY[flag];
-  if (!metadata.expiryDate) return false;
-
-  const expiry = new Date(metadata.expiryDate);
-  return Date.now() > expiry.getTime();
-}
-
-/**
- * Get all expired flags requiring cleanup
- */
-export function getExpiredFlags(): FlagMetadata[] {
-  return Object.values(FLAG_REGISTRY).filter((meta) => isFlagExpired(meta.key));
-}
-```
-
-**Usage in application code**:
-
-```typescript
-// components/Checkout.tsx
-import { FLAGS } from '@/utils/feature-flags';
-import { useFeatureFlag } from '@/hooks/useFeatureFlag';
-
-export function Checkout() {
-  const isNewFlow = useFeatureFlag(FLAGS.NEW_CHECKOUT_FLOW);
-
-  return isNewFlow ? <NewCheckoutFlow /> : <LegacyCheckoutFlow />;
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Type safety**: TypeScript catches typos at compile time
-- **Runtime validation**: validateFlag ensures only registered flags used
-- **Metadata tracking**: Owner, dates, dependencies documented
-- **Expiry alerts**: Automated detection of stale flags
-- **Single source of truth**: All flags defined in one place

-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Test both states**: Enabled AND disabled variations
-- **Automatic cleanup**: afterEach removes targeting (prevent pollution)
-- **Unique test users**: Avoid conflicts with real user data
-- **Telemetry validation**: Verify analytics events fire correctly
-- **Graceful degradation**: Test fallback behavior on errors

-### Example 3: Feature Flag Targeting Helper Pattern
-
-**Context**: Reusable helpers for programmatic flag control via LaunchDarkly/Split.io API.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/support/feature-flag-helpers.ts
-import { request as playwrightRequest } from '@playwright/test';

-    }),
-  );
-
-  if (!response.ok()) {

-}
-
-/**

-
-/**
- * Disable flag globally (0% rollout)
- */
-export async function disableFlagGlobally(flagKey: FlagKey): Promise<void> {
-  await setFlagRolloutPercentage(flagKey, 0);
-}
-
-/**
- * Stub feature flags in local/test environments
- * Bypasses LaunchDarkly entirely
- */
-export function stubFeatureFlags(flags: Record<FlagKey, FlagVariation>): void {
-  // Set flags in localStorage or inject into window
-  if (typeof window !== 'undefined') {
-    (window as any).__STUBBED_FLAGS__ = flags;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Usage in Playwright fixture**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/fixtures/feature-flag-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { setFlagForUser, removeFlagTarget } from '../support/feature-flag-helpers';
-import { FlagKey } from '@/utils/feature-flags';
-
-type FeatureFlagFixture = {
-  featureFlags: {
-    enable: (flag: FlagKey, userId: string) => Promise<void>;
-    disable: (flag: FlagKey, userId: string) => Promise<void>;
-    cleanup: (flag: FlagKey, userId: string) => Promise<void>;
-  };
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<FeatureFlagFixture>({
-  featureFlags: async ({}, use) => {
-    const cleanupQueue: Array<{ flag: FlagKey; userId: string }> = [];
-
-    await use({
-      enable: async (flag, userId) => {
-        await setFlagForUser(flag, userId, true);
-        cleanupQueue.push({ flag, userId });
-      },
-      disable: async (flag, userId) => {
-        await setFlagForUser(flag, userId, false);
-        cleanupQueue.push({ flag, userId });
-      },
-      cleanup: async (flag, userId) => {
-        await removeFlagTarget(flag, userId);
-      },
-    });
-
-    // Auto-cleanup after test
-    for (const { flag, userId } of cleanupQueue) {
-      await removeFlagTarget(flag, userId);
-    }
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **API-driven control**: No manual UI clicks required
-- **Auto-cleanup**: Fixture tracks and removes targeting
-- **Percentage rollouts**: Test gradual feature releases
-- **Stubbing option**: Local development without LaunchDarkly
-- **Type-safe**: FlagKey prevents typos

-/**
- * Feature Flag Lifecycle Checklist

-const FLAG_LIFECYCLE_CHECKLIST = `
-# Feature Flag Lifecycle Checklist
-
-## Before Creating a New Flag
-
-- [ ] **Name**: Follow naming convention (kebab-case, descriptive)
-- [ ] **Owner**: Assign team/individual responsible
-- [ ] **Default State**: Determine safe default (usually false)
-- [ ] **Expiry Date**: Set removal date (30-90 days typical)
-- [ ] **Dependencies**: Document related flags
-- [ ] **Telemetry**: Plan analytics events to track
-- [ ] **Rollback Plan**: Define how to disable quickly
-
-## During Development
-
-- [ ] **Code Paths**: Both enabled/disabled states implemented
-- [ ] **Tests**: Both variations tested in CI
-- [ ] **Documentation**: Flag purpose documented in code/PR
-- [ ] **Telemetry**: Analytics events instrumented
-- [ ] **Error Handling**: Graceful degradation on flag service failure
-
-## Before Launch
-
-- [ ] **QA**: Both states tested in staging
-- [ ] **Rollout Plan**: Gradual rollout percentage defined
-- [ ] **Monitoring**: Dashboards/alerts for flag-related metrics
-- [ ] **Stakeholder Communication**: Product/design aligned
-
-## After Launch (Monitoring)
-
-- [ ] **Metrics**: Success criteria tracked
-- [ ] **Error Rates**: No increase in errors
-- [ ] **Performance**: No degradation
-- [ ] **User Feedback**: Qualitative data collected
-
-## Cleanup (Post-Launch)
-
-- [ ] **Remove Flag Code**: Delete if/else branches
-- [ ] **Update Tests**: Remove flag-specific tests
-- [ ] **Remove Targeting**: Clear all user targets
-- [ ] **Delete Flag Config**: Remove from LaunchDarkly/registry
-- [ ] **Update Documentation**: Remove references
-- [ ] **Deploy**: Ship cleanup changes

-## Feature Flag Testing Checklist
-
-Before merging flag-related code, verify:
-
-- [ ] **Both states tested**: Enabled AND disabled variations covered
-- [ ] **Cleanup automated**: afterEach removes targeting (no manual cleanup)
-- [ ] **Unique test data**: Test users don't collide with production
-- [ ] **Telemetry validated**: Analytics events fire for both variations
-- [ ] **Error handling**: Graceful fallback when flag service unavailable
-- [ ] **Flag metadata**: Owner, dates, dependencies documented in registry
-- [ ] **Rollback plan**: Clear steps to disable flag in production
-- [ ] **Expiry date set**: Removal date defined (or marked permanent)

-## Integration Points
-
-- Used in workflows: `*automate` (test generation), `*framework` (flag setup)
-- Related fragments: `test-quality.md`, `selective-testing.md`

-# File Utilities
-
-## Principle
-
-Read and validate files (CSV, XLSX, PDF, ZIP) with automatic parsing, type-safe results, and download handling. Simplify file operations in Playwright tests with built-in format support and validation helpers.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Testing file operations in Playwright requires boilerplate:
-
-- Manual download handling
-- External parsing libraries for each format
-- No validation helpers
-- Type-unsafe results
-- Repetitive path handling
-
-The `file-utils` module provides:
-
-- **Auto-parsing**: CSV, XLSX, PDF, ZIP automatically parsed
-- **Download handling**: Single function for UI or API-triggered downloads
-- **Type-safe**: TypeScript interfaces for parsed results
-- **Validation helpers**: Row count, header checks, content validation
-- **Format support**: Multiple sheet support (XLSX), text extraction (PDF), archive extraction (ZIP)
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: UI-Triggered CSV Download
-
-**Context**: User clicks button, CSV downloads, validate contents.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { handleDownload, readCSV } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/file-utils';
-import path from 'node:path';
-
-const DOWNLOAD_DIR = path.join(__dirname, '../downloads');
-
-test('should download and validate CSV', async ({ page }) => {
-  const downloadPath = await handleDownload({
-    page,
-    downloadDir: DOWNLOAD_DIR,
-    trigger: () => page.click('[data-testid="export-csv"]'),
-  });
-
-  const { content } = await readCSV({ filePath: downloadPath });
-
-  // Validate headers
-  expect(content.headers).toEqual(['ID', 'Name', 'Email', 'Role']);
-
-  // Validate data
-  expect(content.data).toHaveLength(10);
-  expect(content.data[0]).toMatchObject({
-    ID: expect.any(String),
-    Name: expect.any(String),
-    Email: expect.stringMatching(/@/),
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `handleDownload` waits for download, returns file path
-- `readCSV` auto-parses to `{ headers, data }`
-- Type-safe access to parsed content
-- Clean up downloads in `afterEach`
-
-### Example 2: XLSX with Multiple Sheets
-
-**Context**: Excel file with multiple sheets (e.g., Summary, Details, Errors).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { readXLSX } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/file-utils';
-
-test('should read multi-sheet XLSX', async () => {
-  const downloadPath = await handleDownload({
-    page,
-    downloadDir: DOWNLOAD_DIR,
-    trigger: () => page.click('[data-testid="export-xlsx"]'),
-  });
-
-  const { content } = await readXLSX({ filePath: downloadPath });
-
-  // Access specific sheets
-  const summarySheet = content.sheets.find((s) => s.name === 'Summary');
-  const detailsSheet = content.sheets.find((s) => s.name === 'Details');
-
-  // Validate summary
-  expect(summarySheet.data).toHaveLength(1);
-  expect(summarySheet.data[0].TotalRecords).toBe('150');
-
-  // Validate details
-  expect(detailsSheet.data).toHaveLength(150);
-  expect(detailsSheet.headers).toContain('TransactionID');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `sheets` array with `name` and `data` properties
-- Access sheets by name
-- Each sheet has its own headers and data
-- Type-safe sheet iteration
-
-### Example 3: PDF Text Extraction
-
-**Context**: Validate PDF report contains expected content.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { readPDF } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/file-utils';
-
-test('should validate PDF report', async () => {
-  const downloadPath = await handleDownload({
-    page,
-    downloadDir: DOWNLOAD_DIR,
-    trigger: () => page.click('[data-testid="download-report"]'),
-  });
-
-  const { content } = await readPDF({ filePath: downloadPath });
-
-  // content.text is extracted text from all pages
-  expect(content.text).toContain('Financial Report Q4 2024');
-  expect(content.text).toContain('Total Revenue:');
-
-  // Validate page count
-  expect(content.numpages).toBeGreaterThan(10);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `content.text` contains all extracted text
-- `content.numpages` for page count
-- PDF parsing handles multi-page documents
-- Search for specific phrases
-
-### Example 4: ZIP Archive Validation
-
-**Context**: Validate ZIP contains expected files and extract specific file.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { readZIP } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/file-utils';
-
-test('should validate ZIP archive', async () => {
-  const downloadPath = await handleDownload({
-    page,
-    downloadDir: DOWNLOAD_DIR,
-    trigger: () => page.click('[data-testid="download-backup"]'),
-  });
-
-  const { content } = await readZIP({ filePath: downloadPath });
-
-  // Check file list
-  expect(content.files).toContain('data.csv');
-  expect(content.files).toContain('config.json');
-  expect(content.files).toContain('readme.txt');
-
-  // Read specific file from archive
-  const configContent = content.zip.readAsText('config.json');
-  const config = JSON.parse(configContent);
-
-  expect(config.version).toBe('2.0');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `content.files` lists all files in archive
-- `content.zip.readAsText()` extracts specific files
-- Validate archive structure
-- Read and parse individual files from ZIP
-
-### Example 5: API-Triggered Download
-
-**Context**: API endpoint returns file download (not UI click).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('should download via API', async ({ page, request }) => {
-  const downloadPath = await handleDownload({
-    page,
-    downloadDir: DOWNLOAD_DIR,
-    trigger: async () => {
-      const response = await request.get('/api/export/csv', {
-        headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer token' },
-      });
-
-      if (!response.ok()) {
-        throw new Error(`Export failed: ${response.status()}`);
-      }
-    },
-  });
-
-  const { content } = await readCSV({ filePath: downloadPath });
-
-  expect(content.data).toHaveLength(100);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `trigger` can be async API call
-- API must return `Content-Disposition` header
-- Still need `page` for download events
-- Works with authenticated endpoints
-
-## Validation Helpers
-
-```typescript
-// CSV validation
-const { isValid, errors } = await validateCSV({
-  filePath: downloadPath,
-  expectedRowCount: 10,
-  requiredHeaders: ['ID', 'Name', 'Email'],
-});
-
-expect(isValid).toBe(true);
-expect(errors).toHaveLength(0);
-```
-
-## Download Cleanup Pattern
-
-```typescript
-test.afterEach(async () => {
-  // Clean up downloaded files
-  await fs.remove(DOWNLOAD_DIR);
-});
-```

-# Fixture Architecture Playbook
-
-## Principle
-
-Build test helpers as pure functions first, then wrap them in framework-specific fixtures. Compose capabilities using `mergeTests` (Playwright) or layered commands (Cypress) instead of inheritance. Each fixture should solve one isolated concern (auth, API, logs, network).
-
-## Rationale
-
-Traditional Page Object Models create tight coupling through inheritance chains (`BasePage → LoginPage → AdminPage`). When base classes change, all descendants break. Pure functions with fixture wrappers provide:
-
-- **Testability**: Pure functions run in unit tests without framework overhead
-- **Composability**: Mix capabilities freely via `mergeTests`, no inheritance constraints
-- **Reusability**: Export fixtures via package subpaths for cross-project sharing
-- **Maintainability**: One concern per fixture = clear responsibility boundaries
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Pure Function → Fixture Pattern
-
-**Context**: When building any test helper, always start with a pure function that accepts all dependencies explicitly. Then wrap it in a Playwright fixture or Cypress command.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/helpers/api-request.ts
-// Step 1: Pure function (ALWAYS FIRST!)
-type ApiRequestParams = {
-  request: APIRequestContext;
-  method: 'GET' | 'POST' | 'PUT' | 'DELETE';
-  url: string;
-  data?: unknown;
-  headers?: Record<string, string>;
-};
-
-export async function apiRequest({
-  request,
-  method,
-  url,
-  data,
-  headers = {}
-}: ApiRequestParams) {
-  const response = await request.fetch(url, {
-    method,
-    data,
-    headers: {
-      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
-      ...headers
-    }
-  });
-
-  if (!response.ok()) {
-    throw new Error(`API request failed: ${response.status()} ${await response.text()}`);
-  }
-
-  return response.json();
-}
-
-// Step 2: Fixture wrapper
-// playwright/support/fixtures/api-request-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { apiRequest } from '../helpers/api-request';
-
-export const test = base.extend<{ apiRequest: typeof apiRequest }>({
-  apiRequest: async ({ request }, use) => {
-    // Inject framework dependency, expose pure function
-    await use((params) => apiRequest({ request, ...params }));
-  }
-});
-
-// Step 3: Package exports for reusability
-// package.json
-{
-  "exports": {
-    "./api-request": "./playwright/support/helpers/api-request.ts",
-    "./api-request/fixtures": "./playwright/support/fixtures/api-request-fixture.ts"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Pure function is unit-testable without Playwright running
-- Framework dependency (`request`) injected at fixture boundary
-- Fixture exposes the pure function to test context
-- Package subpath exports enable `import { apiRequest } from 'my-fixtures/api-request'`
-
-### Example 2: Composable Fixture System with mergeTests
-
-**Context**: When building comprehensive test capabilities, compose multiple focused fixtures instead of creating monolithic helper classes. Each fixture provides one capability.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/fixtures/merged-fixtures.ts
-import { test as base, mergeTests } from '@playwright/test';
-import { test as apiRequestFixture } from './api-request-fixture';
-import { test as networkFixture } from './network-fixture';
-import { test as authFixture } from './auth-fixture';
-import { test as logFixture } from './log-fixture';
-
-// Compose all fixtures for comprehensive capabilities
-export const test = mergeTests(base, apiRequestFixture, networkFixture, authFixture, logFixture);
-
-export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-// Example usage in tests:
-// import { test, expect } from './support/fixtures/merged-fixtures';
-//
-// test('user can create order', async ({ page, apiRequest, auth, network }) => {
-//   await auth.loginAs('customer@example.com');
-//   await network.interceptRoute('POST', '**/api/orders', { id: 123 });
-//   await page.goto('/checkout');
-//   await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-//   await expect(page.getByText('Order #123')).toBeVisible();
-// });
-```
-
-**Individual Fixture Examples**:
-
-```typescript
-// network-fixture.ts
-export const test = base.extend({
-  network: async ({ page }, use) => {
-    const interceptedRoutes = new Map();
-
-    const interceptRoute = async (method: string, url: string, response: unknown) => {
-      await page.route(url, (route) => {
-        if (route.request().method() === method) {
-          route.fulfill({ body: JSON.stringify(response) });
-        }
-      });
-      interceptedRoutes.set(`${method}:${url}`, response);
-    };
-
-    await use({ interceptRoute });
-
-    // Cleanup
-    interceptedRoutes.clear();
-  },
-});
-
-// auth-fixture.ts
-export const test = base.extend({
-  auth: async ({ page, context }, use) => {
-    const loginAs = async (email: string) => {
-      // Use API to setup auth (fast!)
-      const token = await getAuthToken(email);
-      await context.addCookies([
-        {
-          name: 'auth_token',
-          value: token,
-          domain: 'localhost',
-          path: '/',
-        },
-      ]);
-    };
-
-    await use({ loginAs });
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `mergeTests` combines fixtures without inheritance
-- Each fixture has single responsibility (network, auth, logs)
-- Tests import merged fixture and access all capabilities
-- No coupling between fixtures—add/remove freely
-
-### Example 3: Framework-Agnostic HTTP Helper
-
-**Context**: When building HTTP helpers, keep them framework-agnostic. Accept all params explicitly so they work in unit tests, Playwright, Cypress, or any context.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// shared/helpers/http-helper.ts
-// Pure, framework-agnostic function
-type HttpHelperParams = {
-  baseUrl: string;
-  endpoint: string;
-  method: 'GET' | 'POST' | 'PUT' | 'DELETE';
-  body?: unknown;
-  headers?: Record<string, string>;
-  token?: string;
-};
-
-export async function makeHttpRequest({ baseUrl, endpoint, method, body, headers = {}, token }: HttpHelperParams): Promise<unknown> {
-  const url = `${baseUrl}${endpoint}`;
-  const requestHeaders = {
-    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
-    ...(token && { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` }),
-    ...headers,
-  };
-
-  const response = await fetch(url, {
-    method,
-    headers: requestHeaders,
-    body: body ? JSON.stringify(body) : undefined,
-  });
-
-  if (!response.ok) {
-    const errorText = await response.text();
-    throw new Error(`HTTP ${method} ${url} failed: ${response.status} ${errorText}`);
-  }
-
-  return response.json();
-}
-
-// Playwright fixture wrapper
-// playwright/support/fixtures/http-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { makeHttpRequest } from '../../shared/helpers/http-helper';
-
-export const test = base.extend({
-  httpHelper: async ({}, use) => {
-    const baseUrl = process.env.API_BASE_URL || 'http://localhost:3000';
-
-    await use((params) => makeHttpRequest({ baseUrl, ...params }));
-  },
-});
-
-// Cypress command wrapper
-// cypress/support/commands.ts
-import { makeHttpRequest } from '../../shared/helpers/http-helper';
-
-Cypress.Commands.add('apiRequest', (params) => {
-  const baseUrl = Cypress.env('API_BASE_URL') || 'http://localhost:3000';
-  return cy.wrap(makeHttpRequest({ baseUrl, ...params }));
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Pure function uses only standard `fetch`, no framework dependencies
-- Unit tests call `makeHttpRequest` directly with all params
-- Playwright and Cypress wrappers inject framework-specific config
-- Same logic runs everywhere—zero duplication
-
-### Example 4: Fixture Cleanup Pattern
-
-**Context**: When fixtures create resources (data, files, connections), ensure automatic cleanup in fixture teardown. Tests must not leak state.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/fixtures/database-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { seedDatabase, deleteRecord } from '../helpers/db-helpers';
-
-type DatabaseFixture = {
-  seedUser: (userData: Partial<User>) => Promise<User>;
-  seedOrder: (orderData: Partial<Order>) => Promise<Order>;
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<DatabaseFixture>({
-  seedUser: async ({}, use) => {
-    const createdUsers: string[] = [];
-
-    const seedUser = async (userData: Partial<User>) => {
-      const user = await seedDatabase('users', userData);
-      createdUsers.push(user.id);
-      return user;
-    };
-
-    await use(seedUser);
-
-    // Auto-cleanup: Delete all users created during test
-    for (const userId of createdUsers) {
-      await deleteRecord('users', userId);
-    }
-    createdUsers.length = 0;
-  },
-
-  seedOrder: async ({}, use) => {
-    const createdOrders: string[] = [];
-
-    const seedOrder = async (orderData: Partial<Order>) => {
-      const order = await seedDatabase('orders', orderData);
-      createdOrders.push(order.id);
-      return order;
-    };
-
-    await use(seedOrder);
-
-    // Auto-cleanup: Delete all orders
-    for (const orderId of createdOrders) {
-      await deleteRecord('orders', orderId);
-    }
-    createdOrders.length = 0;
-  },
-});
-
-// Example usage:
-// test('user can place order', async ({ seedUser, seedOrder, page }) => {
-//   const user = await seedUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-//   const order = await seedOrder({ userId: user.id, total: 100 });
-//
-//   await page.goto(`/orders/${order.id}`);
-//   await expect(page.getByText('Order Total: $100')).toBeVisible();
-//
-//   // No manual cleanup needed—fixture handles it automatically
-// });
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Track all created resources in array during test execution
-- Teardown (after `use()`) deletes all tracked resources
-- Tests don't manually clean up—happens automatically
-- Prevents test pollution and flakiness from shared state
-
-### Anti-Pattern: Inheritance-Based Page Objects
-
-**Problem**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: Page Object Model with inheritance
-class BasePage {
-  constructor(public page: Page) {}
-
-  async navigate(url: string) {
-    await this.page.goto(url);
-  }
-
-  async clickButton(selector: string) {
-    await this.page.click(selector);
-  }
-}
-
-class LoginPage extends BasePage {
-  async login(email: string, password: string) {
-    await this.navigate('/login');
-    await this.page.fill('#email', email);
-    await this.page.fill('#password', password);
-    await this.clickButton('#submit');
-  }
-}
-
-class AdminPage extends LoginPage {
-  async accessAdminPanel() {
-    await this.login('admin@example.com', 'admin123');
-    await this.navigate('/admin');
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Why It Fails**:
-
-- Changes to `BasePage` break all descendants (`LoginPage`, `AdminPage`)
-- `AdminPage` inherits unnecessary `login` details—tight coupling
-- Cannot compose capabilities (e.g., admin + reporting features require multiple inheritance)
-- Hard to test `BasePage` methods in isolation
-- Hidden state in class instances leads to unpredictable behavior
-
-**Better Approach**: Use pure functions + fixtures
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ GOOD: Pure functions with fixture composition
-// helpers/navigation.ts
-export async function navigate(page: Page, url: string) {
-  await page.goto(url);
-}
-
-// helpers/auth.ts
-export async function login(page: Page, email: string, password: string) {
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', email);
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', password);
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit"]');
-}
-
-// fixtures/admin-fixture.ts
-export const test = base.extend({
-  adminPage: async ({ page }, use) => {
-    await login(page, 'admin@example.com', 'admin123');
-    await navigate(page, '/admin');
-    await use(page);
-  },
-});
-
-// Tests import exactly what they need—no inheritance
-```

-- **Used in workflows**: `*atdd` (test generation), `*automate` (test expansion), `*framework` (initial setup)
-- **Related fragments**:
-  - `data-factories.md` - Factory functions for test data
-  - `network-first.md` - Network interception patterns
-  - `test-quality.md` - Deterministic test design principles
-
-## Helper Function Reuse Guidelines
-
-When deciding whether to create a fixture, follow these rules:
-
-- **3+ uses** → Create fixture with subpath export (shared across tests/projects)
-- **2-3 uses** → Create utility module (shared within project)
-- **1 use** → Keep inline (avoid premature abstraction)
-- **Complex logic** → Factory function pattern (dynamic data generation)

-# Fixtures Composition with mergeTests
-
-## Principle
-
-Combine multiple Playwright fixtures using `mergeTests` to create a unified test object with all capabilities. Build composable test infrastructure by merging playwright-utils fixtures with custom project fixtures.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Using fixtures from multiple sources requires combining them:
-
-- Importing from multiple fixture files is verbose
-- Name conflicts between fixtures
-- Duplicate fixture definitions
-- No clear single test object
-
-Playwright's `mergeTests` provides:
-
-- **Single test object**: All fixtures in one import
-- **Conflict resolution**: Handles name collisions automatically
-- **Composition pattern**: Mix utilities, custom fixtures, third-party fixtures
-- **Type safety**: Full TypeScript support for merged fixtures
-- **Maintainability**: One place to manage all fixtures
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Fixture Merging
-
-**Context**: Combine multiple playwright-utils fixtures into single test object.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/merged-fixtures.ts
-import { mergeTests } from '@playwright/test';
-import { test as apiRequestFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-import { test as authFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-import { test as recurseFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/recurse/fixtures';
-
-// Merge all fixtures
-export const test = mergeTests(apiRequestFixture, authFixture, recurseFixture);
-
-export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-```
-
-```typescript
-// In your tests - import from merged fixtures
-import { test, expect } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('all utilities available', async ({
-  apiRequest, // From api-request fixture
-  authToken, // From auth fixture
-  recurse, // From recurse fixture
-}) => {
-  // All fixtures available in single test signature
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/protected',
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${authToken}` },
-  });
-
-  await recurse(
-    () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: `/status/${body.id}` }),
-    (res) => res.body.ready === true,
-  );
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Create one `merged-fixtures.ts` per project
-- Import test object from merged fixtures in all test files
-- All utilities available without multiple imports
-- Type-safe access to all fixtures
-
-### Example 2: Combining with Custom Fixtures
-
-**Context**: Add project-specific fixtures alongside playwright-utils.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/custom-fixtures.ts - Your project fixtures
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { createUser } from './factories/user-factory';
-import { seedDatabase } from './helpers/db-seeder';
-
-export const test = base.extend({
-  // Custom fixture 1: Auto-seeded user
-  testUser: async ({ request }, use) => {
-    const user = await createUser({ role: 'admin' });
-    await seedDatabase('users', [user]);
-    await use(user);
-    // Cleanup happens automatically
-  },
-
-  // Custom fixture 2: Database helpers
-  db: async ({}, use) => {
-    await use({
-      seed: seedDatabase,
-      clear: () => seedDatabase.truncate(),
-    });
-  },
-});
-
-// playwright/support/merged-fixtures.ts - Combine everything
-import { mergeTests } from '@playwright/test';
-import { test as apiRequestFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-import { test as authFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-import { test as customFixtures } from './custom-fixtures';
-
-export const test = mergeTests(
-  apiRequestFixture,
-  authFixture,
-  customFixtures, // Your project fixtures
-);
-
-export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-```
-
-```typescript
-// In tests - all fixtures available
-import { test, expect } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('using mixed fixtures', async ({
-  apiRequest, // playwright-utils
-  authToken, // playwright-utils
-  testUser, // custom
-  db, // custom
-}) => {
-  // Use playwright-utils
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: `/api/users/${testUser.id}`,
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${authToken}` },
-  });
-
-  // Use custom fixture
-  await db.clear();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Custom fixtures extend `base` test
-- Merge custom with playwright-utils fixtures
-- All available in one test signature
-- Maintainable separation of concerns
-
-### Example 3: Full Utility Suite Integration
-
-**Context**: Production setup with all core playwright-utils and custom fixtures.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/merged-fixtures.ts
-import { mergeTests } from '@playwright/test';
-
-// Playwright utils fixtures
-import { test as apiRequestFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-import { test as authFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-import { test as interceptFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/intercept-network-call/fixtures';
-import { test as recurseFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/recurse/fixtures';
-import { test as networkRecorderFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/network-recorder/fixtures';
-
-// Custom project fixtures
-import { test as customFixtures } from './custom-fixtures';
-
-// Merge everything
-export const test = mergeTests(apiRequestFixture, authFixture, interceptFixture, recurseFixture, networkRecorderFixture, customFixtures);
-
-export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-```
-
-```typescript
-// In tests
-import { test, expect } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('full integration', async ({
-  page,
-  context,
-  apiRequest,
-  authToken,
-  interceptNetworkCall,
-  recurse,
-  networkRecorder,
-  testUser, // custom
-}) => {
-  // All utilities + custom fixtures available
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context);
-
-  const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' });
-
-  await page.goto('/users');
-  const { responseJson } = await usersCall;
-
-  expect(responseJson).toContainEqual(expect.objectContaining({ id: testUser.id }));
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- One merged-fixtures.ts for entire project
-- Combine all playwright-utils you use
-- Add custom project fixtures
-- Single import in all test files
-
-### Example 4: Fixture Override Pattern
-
-**Context**: Override default options for specific test files or describes.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test, expect } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-// Override auth options for entire file
-test.use({
-  authOptions: {
-    userIdentifier: 'admin',
-    environment: 'staging',
-  },
-});
-
-test('uses admin on staging', async ({ authToken }) => {
-  // Token is for admin user on staging environment
-});
-
-// Override for specific describe block
-test.describe('manager tests', () => {
-  test.use({
-    authOptions: {
-      userIdentifier: 'manager',
-    },
-  });
-
-  test('manager can access reports', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Uses manager token
-    await page.goto('/reports');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `test.use()` overrides fixture options
-- Can override at file or describe level
-- Options merge with defaults
-- Type-safe overrides
-
-### Example 5: Avoiding Fixture Conflicts
-
-**Context**: Handle name collisions when merging fixtures with same names.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// If two fixtures have same name, last one wins
-import { test as fixture1 } from './fixture1'; // has 'user' fixture
-import { test as fixture2 } from './fixture2'; // also has 'user' fixture
-
-const test = mergeTests(fixture1, fixture2);
-// fixture2's 'user' overrides fixture1's 'user'
-
-// Better: Rename fixtures before merging
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { test as fixture1 } from './fixture1';
-
-const fixture1Renamed = base.extend({
-  user1: fixture1._extend.user, // Rename to avoid conflict
-});
-
-const test = mergeTests(fixture1Renamed, fixture2);
-// Now both 'user1' and 'user' available
-
-// Best: Design fixtures without conflicts
-// - Prefix custom fixtures: 'myAppUser', 'myAppDb'
-// - Playwright-utils uses descriptive names: 'apiRequest', 'authToken'
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Last fixture wins in conflicts
-- Rename fixtures to avoid collisions
-- Design fixtures with unique names
-- Playwright-utils uses descriptive names (no conflicts)
-

-## Benefits of Fixture Composition
-
-**Compared to direct imports:**
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ Without mergeTests (verbose)
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { apiRequest } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request';
-import { getAuthToken } from './auth';
-import { createUser } from './factories';
-
-test('verbose', async ({ request }) => {
-  const token = await getAuthToken();
-  const user = await createUser();
-  const response = await apiRequest({ request, method: 'GET', path: '/api/users' });
-  // Manual wiring everywhere
-});
-
-// ✅ With mergeTests (clean)
-import { test } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('clean', async ({ apiRequest, authToken, testUser }) => {
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/users' });
-  // All fixtures auto-wired
-});
-```
-
-**Reduction:** ~10 lines per test → ~2 lines

-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Importing test from multiple fixture files:**
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-// Also need auth...
-import { test as authTest } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-// Name conflict! Which test to use?
-```
-
-**✅ Use merged fixtures:**
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-// All utilities available, no conflicts
-```
-
-**❌ Merging too many fixtures (kitchen sink):**
-
-```typescript
-// Merging 20+ fixtures makes test signature huge
-const test = mergeTests(...20 different fixtures)
-
-test('my test', async ({ fixture1, fixture2, ..., fixture20 }) => {
-  // Cognitive overload
-})
-```
-
-**✅ Merge only what you actually use:**
-
-```typescript
-// Merge the 4-6 fixtures your project actually needs
-const test = mergeTests(apiRequestFixture, authFixture, recurseFixture, customFixtures);
-```

-# Intercept Network Call Utility
-
-## Principle
-
-Intercept network requests with a single declarative call that returns a Promise. Automatically parse JSON responses, support both spy (observe) and stub (mock) patterns, and use powerful glob pattern matching for URL filtering.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Vanilla Playwright's network interception requires multiple steps:
-
-- `page.route()` to setup, `page.waitForResponse()` to capture
-- Manual JSON parsing
-- Verbose syntax for conditional handling
-- Complex filter predicates
-
-The `interceptNetworkCall` utility provides:
-
-- **Single declarative call**: Setup and wait in one statement
-- **Automatic JSON parsing**: Response pre-parsed, strongly typed
-- **Flexible URL patterns**: Glob matching with picomatch
-- **Spy or stub modes**: Observe real traffic or mock responses
-- **Concise API**: Reduces boilerplate by 60-70%
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Spy on Network (Observe Real Traffic)
-
-**Context**: Capture and inspect real API responses for validation.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/intercept-network-call/fixtures';
-
-test('should spy on users API', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  // Setup interception BEFORE navigation
-  const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({
-    url: '**/api/users', // Glob pattern
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Wait for response and access parsed data
-  const { responseJson, status } = await usersCall;
-
-  expect(status).toBe(200);
-  expect(responseJson).toHaveLength(10);
-  expect(responseJson[0]).toHaveProperty('name');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Intercept before navigation (critical for race-free tests)
-- Returns Promise with `{ responseJson, status, requestBody }`
-- Glob patterns (`**` matches any path segment)
-- JSON automatically parsed
-
-### Example 2: Stub Network (Mock Response)
-
-**Context**: Mock API responses for testing UI behavior without backend.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('should stub users API', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  const mockUsers = [
-    { id: 1, name: 'Test User 1' },
-    { id: 2, name: 'Test User 2' },
-  ];
-
-  const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({
-    url: '**/api/users',
-    fulfillResponse: {
-      status: 200,
-      body: mockUsers,
-    },
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await usersCall;
-
-  // UI shows mocked data
-  await expect(page.getByText('Test User 1')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByText('Test User 2')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `fulfillResponse` mocks the API
-- No backend needed
-- Test UI logic in isolation
-- Status code and body fully controllable
-
-### Example 3: Conditional Response Handling
-
-**Context**: Different responses based on request method or parameters.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('conditional mocking', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  await interceptNetworkCall({
-    url: '**/api/data',
-    handler: async (route, request) => {
-      if (request.method() === 'POST') {
-        // Mock POST success
-        await route.fulfill({
-          status: 201,
-          body: JSON.stringify({ id: 'new-id', success: true }),
-        });
-      } else if (request.method() === 'GET') {
-        // Mock GET with data
-        await route.fulfill({
-          status: 200,
-          body: JSON.stringify([{ id: 1, name: 'Item' }]),
-        });
-      } else {
-        // Let other methods through
-        await route.continue();
-      }
-    },
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/data-page');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `handler` function for complex logic
-- Access full `route` and `request` objects
-- Can mock, continue, or abort
-- Flexible for advanced scenarios
-
-### Example 4: Error Simulation
-
-**Context**: Testing error handling in UI when API fails.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('should handle API errors gracefully', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  // Simulate 500 error
-  const errorCall = interceptNetworkCall({
-    url: '**/api/users',
-    fulfillResponse: {
-      status: 500,
-      body: { error: 'Internal Server Error' },
-    },
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await errorCall;
-
-  // Verify UI shows error state
-  await expect(page.getByText('Failed to load users')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('retry-button')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// Simulate network timeout
-test('should handle timeout', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  await interceptNetworkCall({
-    url: '**/api/slow',
-    handler: async (route) => {
-      // Never respond - simulates timeout
-      await new Promise(() => {});
-    },
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/slow-page');
-
-  // UI should show timeout error
-  await expect(page.getByText('Request timed out')).toBeVisible({ timeout: 10000 });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Mock error statuses (4xx, 5xx)
-- Test timeout scenarios
-- Validate error UI states
-- No real failures needed
-
-### Example 5: Multiple Intercepts (Order Matters!)
-
-**Context**: Intercepting different endpoints in same test - setup order is critical.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('multiple intercepts', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  // ✅ CORRECT: Setup all intercepts BEFORE navigation
-  const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' });
-  const productsCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/products' });
-  const ordersCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/orders' });
-
-  // THEN navigate
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Wait for all (or specific ones)
-  const [users, products] = await Promise.all([usersCall, productsCall]);
-
-  expect(users.responseJson).toHaveLength(10);
-  expect(products.responseJson).toHaveLength(50);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Setup all intercepts before triggering actions
-- Use `Promise.all()` to wait for multiple calls
-- Order: intercept → navigate → await
-- Prevents race conditions
-
-## URL Pattern Matching
-
-**Supported glob patterns:**
-
-```typescript
-'**/api/users'; // Any path ending with /api/users
-'/api/users'; // Exact match
-'**/users/*'; // Any users sub-path
-'**/api/{users,products}'; // Either users or products
-'**/api/users?id=*'; // With query params
-```
-
-**Uses picomatch library** - same pattern syntax as Playwright's `page.route()` but cleaner API.
-
-## Comparison with Vanilla Playwright
-
-| Vanilla Playwright                                          | intercept-network-call                                       |
-| ----------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| `await page.route('/api/users', route => route.continue())` | `const call = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' })` |
-| `const resp = await page.waitForResponse('/api/users')`     | (Combined in single statement)                               |
-| `const json = await resp.json()`                            | `const { responseJson } = await call`                        |
-| `const status = resp.status()`                              | `const { status } = await call`                              |
-| Complex filter predicates                                   | Simple glob patterns                                         |
-
-**Reduction:** ~5-7 lines → ~2-3 lines per interception

-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Intercepting after navigation:**
-
-```typescript
-await page.goto('/dashboard'); // Navigation starts
-const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' }); // Too late!
-```
-
-**✅ Intercept before navigate:**
-
-```typescript
-const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' }); // First
-await page.goto('/dashboard'); // Then navigate
-const { responseJson } = await usersCall; // Then await
-```
-
-**❌ Ignoring the returned Promise:**
-
-```typescript
-interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' }); // Not awaited!
-await page.goto('/dashboard');
-// No deterministic wait - race condition
-```
-
-**✅ Always await the intercept:**
-
-```typescript
-const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({ url: '**/api/users' });
-await page.goto('/dashboard');
-await usersCall; // Deterministic wait
-```

-# Log Utility
-
-## Principle
-
-Use structured logging that integrates with Playwright's test reports. Support object logging, test step decoration, and multiple log levels (info, step, success, warning, error, debug).
-
-## Rationale
-
-Console.log in Playwright tests has limitations:
-
-- Not visible in HTML reports
-- No test step integration
-- No structured output
-- Lost in terminal noise during CI
-
-The `log` utility provides:
-
-- **Report integration**: Logs appear in Playwright HTML reports
-- **Test step decoration**: `log.step()` creates collapsible steps in UI
-- **Object logging**: Automatically formats objects/arrays
-- **Multiple levels**: info, step, success, warning, error, debug
-- **Optional console**: Can disable console output but keep report logs
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Logging Levels
-
-**Context**: Log different types of messages throughout test execution.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { log } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils';
-
-test('logging demo', async ({ page }) => {
-  await log.step('Navigate to login page');
-  await page.goto('/login');
-
-  await log.info('Entering credentials');
-  await page.fill('#username', 'testuser');
-
-  await log.success('Login successful');
-
-  await log.warning('Rate limit approaching');
-
-  await log.debug({ userId: '123', sessionId: 'abc' });
-
-  // Errors still throw but get logged first
-  try {
-    await page.click('#nonexistent');
-  } catch (error) {
-    await log.error('Click failed', false); // false = no console output
-    throw error;
-  }
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `step()` creates collapsible steps in Playwright UI
-- `info()`, `success()`, `warning()` for different message types
-- `debug()` for detailed data (objects/arrays)
-- `error()` with optional console suppression
-- All logs appear in test reports
-
-### Example 2: Object and Array Logging
-
-**Context**: Log structured data for debugging without cluttering console.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('object logging', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users',
-  });
-
-  // Log array of objects
-  await log.debug(body); // Formatted as JSON in report
-
-  // Log specific object
-  await log.info({
-    totalUsers: body.length,
-    firstUser: body[0]?.name,
-    timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
-  });
-
-  // Complex nested structures
-  await log.debug({
-    request: {
-      method: 'GET',
-      path: '/api/users',
-      timestamp: Date.now(),
-    },
-    response: {
-      status: 200,
-      body: body.slice(0, 3), // First 3 items
-    },
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Objects auto-formatted as pretty JSON
-- Arrays handled gracefully
-- Nested structures supported
-- All visible in Playwright report attachments
-
-### Example 3: Test Step Organization
-
-**Context**: Organize test execution into collapsible steps for better readability in reports.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('organized with steps', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  await log.step('ARRANGE: Setup test data');
-  const { body: user } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'POST',
-    path: '/api/users',
-    body: { name: 'Test User' },
-  });
-
-  await log.step('ACT: Perform user action');
-  await page.goto(`/users/${user.id}`);
-  await page.click('#edit');
-  await page.fill('#name', 'Updated Name');
-  await page.click('#save');
-
-  await log.step('ASSERT: Verify changes');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Updated Name')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // In Playwright UI, each step is collapsible
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `log.step()` creates collapsible sections
-- Organize by Arrange-Act-Assert
-- Steps visible in Playwright trace viewer
-- Better debugging when tests fail
-
-### Example 4: Conditional Logging
-
-**Context**: Log different messages based on environment or test conditions.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('conditional logging', async ({ page }) => {
-  const isCI = process.env.CI === 'true';
-
-  if (isCI) {
-    await log.info('Running in CI environment');
-  } else {
-    await log.debug('Running locally');
-  }
-
-  const isKafkaWorking = await checkKafkaHealth();
-
-  if (!isKafkaWorking) {
-    await log.warning('Kafka unavailable - skipping event checks');
-  } else {
-    await log.step('Verifying Kafka events');
-    // ... event verification
-  }
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Log based on environment
-- Skip logging with conditionals
-- Use appropriate log levels
-- Debug info for local, minimal for CI
-
-### Example 5: Integration with Auth and API
-
-**Context**: Log authenticated API requests with tokens (safely).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures';
-
-// Helper to create safe token preview
-function createTokenPreview(token: string): string {
-  if (!token || token.length < 10) return '[invalid]';
-  return `${token.slice(0, 6)}...${token.slice(-4)}`;
-}
-
-test('should log auth flow', async ({ authToken, apiRequest }) => {
-  await log.info(`Using token: ${createTokenPreview(authToken)}`);
-
-  await log.step('Fetch protected resource');
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/protected',
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${authToken}` },
-  });
-
-  await log.debug({
-    status,
-    bodyPreview: {
-      id: body.id,
-      recordCount: body.data?.length,
-    },
-  });
-
-  await log.success('Protected resource accessed successfully');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Never log full tokens (security risk)
-- Use preview functions for sensitive data
-- Combine with auth and API utilities
-- Log at appropriate detail level
-
-## Log Levels Guide
-
-| Level     | When to Use                         | Shows in Report      | Shows in Console |
-| --------- | ----------------------------------- | -------------------- | ---------------- |
-| `step`    | Test organization, major actions    | ✅ Collapsible steps | ✅ Yes           |
-| `info`    | General information, state changes  | ✅ Yes               | ✅ Yes           |
-| `success` | Successful operations               | ✅ Yes               | ✅ Yes           |
-| `warning` | Non-critical issues, skipped checks | ✅ Yes               | ✅ Yes           |
-| `error`   | Failures, exceptions                | ✅ Yes               | ✅ Configurable  |
-| `debug`   | Detailed data, objects              | ✅ Yes (attached)    | ✅ Configurable  |
-
-## Comparison with console.log
-
-| console.log             | log Utility               |
-| ----------------------- | ------------------------- |
-| Not in reports          | Appears in reports        |
-| No test steps           | Creates collapsible steps |
-| Manual JSON.stringify() | Auto-formats objects      |
-| No log levels           | 6 log levels              |
-| Lost in CI output       | Preserved in artifacts    |

-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Logging objects in steps:**
-

-```
-
-**✅ Use strings for steps, objects for debug:**
-
-```typescript
-await log.step('Creating user: test'); // Readable in UI
-await log.debug({ user: 'test', action: 'create' }); // Detailed data
-```
-
-**❌ Logging sensitive data:**
-
-```typescript
-await log.info(`Password: ${password}`); // Security risk!
-await log.info(`Token: ${authToken}`); // Full token exposed!
-```
-
-**✅ Use previews or omit sensitive data:**
-
-```typescript
-await log.info('User authenticated successfully'); // No sensitive data
-await log.debug({ tokenPreview: token.slice(0, 6) + '...' });
-```
-
-**❌ Excessive logging in loops:**
-
-```typescript
-for (const item of items) {
-  await log.info(`Processing ${item.id}`); // 100 log entries!
-}
-```
-
-**✅ Log summary or use debug level:**
-
-```typescript
-await log.step(`Processing ${items.length} items`);
-await log.debug({ itemIds: items.map((i) => i.id) }); // One log entry

-# Network Error Monitor
-
-## Principle
-
-Automatically detect and fail tests when HTTP 4xx/5xx errors occur during execution. Act like Sentry for tests - catch silent backend failures even when UI passes assertions.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Traditional Playwright tests focus on UI:
-
-- Backend 500 errors ignored if UI looks correct
-- Silent failures slip through
-- No visibility into background API health
-- Tests pass while features are broken
-
-The `network-error-monitor` provides:
-
-- **Automatic detection**: All HTTP 4xx/5xx responses tracked
-- **Test failures**: Fail tests with backend errors (even if UI passes)
-- **Structured artifacts**: JSON reports with error details
-- **Smart opt-out**: Disable for validation tests expecting errors
-- **Deduplication**: Group repeated errors by pattern
-- **Domino effect prevention**: Limit test failures per error pattern
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Auto-Monitoring
-
-**Context**: Automatically fail tests when backend errors occur.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/network-error-monitor/fixtures';
-
-// Monitoring automatically enabled
-test('should load dashboard', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await expect(page.locator('h1')).toContainText('Dashboard');
-
-  // ✅ Passes if no HTTP errors
-  // ❌ Fails if any 4xx/5xx errors detected with clear message:
-  //    "Network errors detected: 2 request(s) failed"
-  //    Failed requests:
-  //      GET 500 https://api.example.com/users
-  //      POST 503 https://api.example.com/metrics
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Zero setup - auto-enabled for all tests
-- Fails on any 4xx/5xx response
-- Structured error message with URLs and status codes
-- JSON artifact attached to test report
-
-### Example 2: Opt-Out for Validation Tests
-
-**Context**: Some tests expect errors (validation, error handling, edge cases).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/network-error-monitor/fixtures';
-
-// Opt-out with annotation
-test('should show error on invalid input', { annotation: [{ type: 'skipNetworkMonitoring' }] }, async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/form');
-  await page.click('#submit'); // Triggers 400 error
-
-  // Monitoring disabled - test won't fail on 400
-  await expect(page.getByText('Invalid input')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// Or opt-out entire describe block
-test.describe('error handling', { annotation: [{ type: 'skipNetworkMonitoring' }] }, () => {
-  test('handles 404', async ({ page }) => {
-    // All tests in this block skip monitoring
-  });
-
-  test('handles 500', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Monitoring disabled
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Use annotation `{ type: 'skipNetworkMonitoring' }`
-- Can opt-out single test or entire describe block
-- Monitoring still active for other tests
-- Perfect for intentional error scenarios
-
-### Example 3: Integration with Merged Fixtures
-
-**Context**: Combine network-error-monitor with other utilities.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/merged-fixtures.ts
-import { mergeTests } from '@playwright/test';
-import { test as authFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-import { test as networkErrorMonitorFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/network-error-monitor/fixtures';
-
-export const test = mergeTests(
-  authFixture,
-  networkErrorMonitorFixture,
-  // Add other fixtures
-);
-
-// In tests
-import { test, expect } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('authenticated with monitoring', async ({ page, authToken }) => {
-  // Both auth and network monitoring active
-  await page.goto('/protected');
-
-  // Fails if backend returns errors during auth flow
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Combine with `mergeTests`
-- Works alongside all other utilities
-- Monitoring active automatically
-- No extra setup needed
-
-### Example 4: Domino Effect Prevention
-
-**Context**: One failing endpoint shouldn't fail all tests.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Configuration (internal to utility)
-const config = {
-  maxTestsPerError: 3, // Max 3 tests fail per unique error pattern
-};
-
-// Scenario:
-// Test 1: GET /api/broken → 500 error → Test fails ❌
-// Test 2: GET /api/broken → 500 error → Test fails ❌
-// Test 3: GET /api/broken → 500 error → Test fails ❌
-// Test 4: GET /api/broken → 500 error → Test passes ⚠️ (limit reached, warning logged)
-// Test 5: Different error pattern → Test fails ❌ (new pattern, counter resets)
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Limits cascading failures
-- Groups errors by URL + status code pattern
-- Warns when limit reached
-- Prevents flaky backend from failing entire suite
-
-### Example 5: Artifact Structure
-
-**Context**: Debugging failed tests with network error artifacts.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-When test fails due to network errors, artifact attached:
-
-```json
-// test-results/my-test/network-errors.json
-{
-  "errors": [
-    {
-      "url": "https://api.example.com/users",
-      "method": "GET",
-      "status": 500,
-      "statusText": "Internal Server Error",
-      "timestamp": "2024-08-13T10:30:45.123Z"
-    },
-    {
-      "url": "https://api.example.com/metrics",

-## Comparison with Manual Error Checks
-
-| Manual Approach                                        | network-error-monitor      |
-| ------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------- |
-| `page.on('response', resp => { if (!resp.ok()) ... })` | Auto-enabled, zero setup   |
-| Check each response manually                           | Automatic for all requests |
-| Custom error tracking logic                            | Built-in deduplication     |
-| No structured artifacts                                | JSON artifacts attached    |
-| Easy to forget                                         | Never miss a backend error |
-
-## When to Use
-
-**Auto-enabled for:**
-
-- ✅ All E2E tests
-- ✅ Integration tests
-- ✅ Any test hitting real APIs
-
-**Opt-out for:**
-
-- ❌ Validation tests (expecting 4xx)
-- ❌ Error handling tests (expecting 5xx)
-- ❌ Offline tests (network-recorder playback)
-
-## Integration with Framework Setup
-
-In `*framework` workflow, mention network-error-monitor:
-
-```typescript
-// Add to merged-fixtures.ts
-import { test as networkErrorMonitorFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/network-error-monitor/fixtures';
-
-export const test = mergeTests(
-  // ... other fixtures
-  networkErrorMonitorFixture,
-);
-```
-
-## Related Fragments
-
-- `overview.md` - Installation and fixtures
-- `fixtures-composition.md` - Merging with other utilities
-- `error-handling.md` - Traditional error handling patterns
-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Opting out of monitoring globally:**
-
-```typescript
-// Every test skips monitoring
-test.use({ annotation: [{ type: 'skipNetworkMonitoring' }] });
-```
-
-**✅ Opt-out only for specific error tests:**
-
-```typescript
-test.describe('error scenarios', { annotation: [{ type: 'skipNetworkMonitoring' }] }, () => {
-  // Only these tests skip monitoring
-});
-```
-
-**❌ Ignoring network error artifacts:**
-
-```typescript
-// Test fails, artifact shows 500 errors
-// Developer: "Works on my machine" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-```
-
-**✅ Check artifacts for root cause:**
-
-```typescript
-// Read network-errors.json artifact
-// Identify failing endpoint: GET /api/users → 500
-// Fix backend issue before merging
-```

-# Network-First Safeguards
-
-## Principle
-
-Register network interceptions **before** any navigation or user action. Store the interception promise and await it immediately after the triggering step. Replace implicit waits with deterministic signals based on network responses, spinner disappearance, or event hooks.
-
-## Rationale
-
-The most common source of flaky E2E tests is **race conditions** between navigation and network interception:
-
-- Navigate then intercept = missed requests (too late)
-- No explicit wait = assertion runs before response arrives
-- Hard waits (`waitForTimeout(3000)`) = slow, unreliable, brittle
-
-Network-first patterns provide:
-
-- **Zero race conditions**: Intercept is active before triggering action
-- **Deterministic waits**: Wait for actual response, not arbitrary timeouts
-- **Actionable failures**: Assert on response status/body, not generic "element not found"
-- **Speed**: No padding with extra wait time
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Intercept Before Navigate Pattern
-
-**Context**: The foundational pattern for all E2E tests. Always register route interception **before** the action that triggers the request (navigation, click, form submit).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ CORRECT: Intercept BEFORE navigate
-test('user can view dashboard data', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Step 1: Register interception FIRST
-  const usersPromise = page.waitForResponse((resp) => resp.url().includes('/api/users') && resp.status() === 200);
-
-  // Step 2: THEN trigger the request
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Step 3: THEN await the response
-  const usersResponse = await usersPromise;
-  const users = await usersResponse.json();
-
-  // Step 4: Assert on structured data
-  expect(users).toHaveLength(10);
-  await expect(page.getByText(users[0].name)).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// Cypress equivalent
-describe('Dashboard', () => {
-  it('should display users', () => {
-    // Step 1: Register interception FIRST
-    cy.intercept('GET', '**/api/users').as('getUsers');
-
-    // Step 2: THEN trigger
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-
-    // Step 3: THEN await
-    cy.wait('@getUsers').then((interception) => {
-      // Step 4: Assert on structured data
-      expect(interception.response.statusCode).to.equal(200);
-      expect(interception.response.body).to.have.length(10);
-      cy.contains(interception.response.body[0].name).should('be.visible');
-    });
-  });
-});
-
-// ❌ WRONG: Navigate BEFORE intercept (race condition!)
-test('flaky test example', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard'); // Request fires immediately
-
-  const usersPromise = page.waitForResponse('/api/users'); // TOO LATE - might miss it
-  const response = await usersPromise; // May timeout randomly
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Playwright: Use `page.waitForResponse()` with URL pattern or predicate **before** `page.goto()` or `page.click()`
-- Cypress: Use `cy.intercept().as()` **before** `cy.visit()` or `cy.click()`
-- Store promise/alias, trigger action, **then** await response
-- This prevents 95% of race-condition flakiness in E2E tests
-
-### Example 2: HAR Capture for Debugging
-
-**Context**: When debugging flaky tests or building deterministic mocks, capture real network traffic with HAR files. Replay them in tests for consistent, offline-capable test runs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Enable HAR recording
-export default defineConfig({
-  use: {
-    // Record HAR on first run
-    recordHar: { path: './hars/', mode: 'minimal' },
-    // Or replay HAR in tests
-    // serviceWorkers: 'block',
-  },
-});
-
-// Capture HAR for specific test
-test('capture network for order flow', async ({ page, context }) => {
-  // Start recording
-  await context.routeFromHAR('./hars/order-flow.har', {
-    url: '**/api/**',
-    update: true, // Update HAR with new requests
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="credit-card"]', '4111111111111111');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // HAR saved to ./hars/order-flow.har
-});
-
-// Replay HAR for deterministic tests (no real API needed)
-test('replay order flow from HAR', async ({ page, context }) => {
-  // Replay captured HAR
-  await context.routeFromHAR('./hars/order-flow.har', {
-    url: '**/api/**',
-    update: false, // Read-only mode
-  });
-
-  // Test runs with exact recorded responses - fully deterministic
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="credit-card"]', '4111111111111111');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// Custom mock based on HAR insights
-test('mock order response based on HAR', async ({ page }) => {
-  // After analyzing HAR, create focused mock
-  await page.route('**/api/orders', (route) =>
-    route.fulfill({
-      status: 200,
-      contentType: 'application/json',
-      body: JSON.stringify({
-        orderId: '12345',
-        status: 'confirmed',
-        total: 99.99,
-      }),
-    }),
-  );
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Order #12345')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- HAR files capture real request/response pairs for analysis
-- `update: true` records new traffic; `update: false` replays existing
-- Replay mode makes tests fully deterministic (no upstream API needed)
-- Use HAR to understand API contracts, then create focused mocks
-
-### Example 3: Network Stub with Edge Cases
-
-**Context**: When testing error handling, timeouts, and edge cases, stub network responses to simulate failures. Test both happy path and error scenarios.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Test happy path
-test('order succeeds with valid data', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.route('**/api/orders', (route) =>
-    route.fulfill({
-      status: 200,
-      contentType: 'application/json',
-      body: JSON.stringify({ orderId: '123', status: 'confirmed' }),
-    }),
-  );
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// Test 500 error
-test('order fails with server error', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Listen for console errors (app should log gracefully)
-  const consoleErrors: string[] = [];
-  page.on('console', (msg) => {
-    if (msg.type() === 'error') consoleErrors.push(msg.text());
-  });
-
-  // Stub 500 error
-  await page.route('**/api/orders', (route) =>
-    route.fulfill({
-      status: 500,
-      contentType: 'application/json',
-      body: JSON.stringify({ error: 'Internal Server Error' }),
-    }),
-  );
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-
-  // Assert UI shows error gracefully
-  await expect(page.getByText('Something went wrong')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByText('Please try again')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Verify error logged (not thrown)
-  expect(consoleErrors.some((e) => e.includes('Order failed'))).toBeTruthy();
-});
-
-// Test network timeout
-test('order times out after 10 seconds', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Stub delayed response (never resolves within timeout)
-  await page.route(
-    '**/api/orders',
-    (route) => new Promise(() => {}), // Never resolves - simulates timeout
-  );
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-
-  // App should show timeout message after configured timeout
-  await expect(page.getByText('Request timed out')).toBeVisible({ timeout: 15000 });
-});
-
-// Test partial data response
-test('order handles missing optional fields', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.route('**/api/orders', (route) =>
-    route.fulfill({
-      status: 200,
-      contentType: 'application/json',
-      // Missing optional fields like 'trackingNumber', 'estimatedDelivery'
-      body: JSON.stringify({ orderId: '123', status: 'confirmed' }),
-    }),
-  );
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-
-  // App should handle gracefully - no crash, shows what's available
-  await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByText('Tracking information pending')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// Cypress equivalents
-describe('Order Edge Cases', () => {
-  it('should handle 500 error', () => {
-    cy.intercept('POST', '**/api/orders', {
-      statusCode: 500,
-      body: { error: 'Internal Server Error' },
-    }).as('orderFailed');
-
-    cy.visit('/checkout');
-    cy.get('[data-testid="submit-order"]').click();
-    cy.wait('@orderFailed');
-    cy.contains('Something went wrong').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should handle timeout', () => {
-    cy.intercept('POST', '**/api/orders', (req) => {
-      req.reply({ delay: 20000 }); // Delay beyond app timeout
-    }).as('orderTimeout');
-
-    cy.visit('/checkout');
-    cy.get('[data-testid="submit-order"]').click();
-    cy.contains('Request timed out', { timeout: 15000 }).should('be.visible');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Stub different HTTP status codes (200, 400, 500, 503)
-- Simulate timeouts with `delay` or non-resolving promises
-- Test partial/incomplete data responses
-- Verify app handles errors gracefully (no crashes, user-friendly messages)
-
-### Example 4: Deterministic Waiting
-
-**Context**: Never use hard waits (`waitForTimeout(3000)`). Always wait for explicit signals: network responses, element state changes, or custom events.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ GOOD: Wait for response with predicate
-test('wait for specific response', async ({ page }) => {
-  const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse((resp) => resp.url().includes('/api/users') && resp.status() === 200);
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  const response = await responsePromise;
-
-  expect(response.status()).toBe(200);
-  await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Wait for multiple responses
-test('wait for all required data', async ({ page }) => {
-  const usersPromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/users');
-  const productsPromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/products');
-  const ordersPromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/orders');
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Wait for all in parallel
-  const [users, products, orders] = await Promise.all([usersPromise, productsPromise, ordersPromise]);
-
-  expect(users.status()).toBe(200);
-  expect(products.status()).toBe(200);
-  expect(orders.status()).toBe(200);
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Wait for spinner to disappear
-test('wait for loading indicator', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Wait for spinner to disappear (signals data loaded)
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('loading-spinner')).not.toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Wait for custom event (advanced)
-test('wait for custom ready event', async ({ page }) => {
-  let appReady = false;
-  page.on('console', (msg) => {
-    if (msg.text() === 'App ready') appReady = true;
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Poll until custom condition met
-  await page.waitForFunction(() => appReady, { timeout: 10000 });
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard')).toBeVisible();
-});
-
-// ❌ BAD: Hard wait (arbitrary timeout)
-test('flaky hard wait example', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(3000); // WHY 3 seconds? What if slower? What if faster?
-  await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard')).toBeVisible(); // May fail if >3s
-});
-
-// Cypress equivalents
-describe('Deterministic Waiting', () => {
-  it('should wait for response', () => {
-    cy.intercept('GET', '**/api/users').as('getUsers');
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-    cy.wait('@getUsers').its('response.statusCode').should('eq', 200);
-    cy.contains('Dashboard').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should wait for spinner to disappear', () => {
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-    cy.get('[data-testid="loading-spinner"]').should('not.exist');
-    cy.contains('Dashboard').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  // ❌ BAD: Hard wait
-  it('flaky hard wait', () => {
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-    cy.wait(3000); // NEVER DO THIS
-    cy.contains('Dashboard').should('be.visible');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `waitForResponse()` with URL pattern or predicate = deterministic
-- `waitForLoadState('networkidle')` = wait for all network activity to finish
-- Wait for element state changes (spinner disappears, button enabled)
-- **NEVER** use `waitForTimeout()` or `cy.wait(ms)` - always non-deterministic
-
-### Example 5: Anti-Pattern - Navigate Then Mock
-
-**Problem**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: Race condition - mock registered AFTER navigation starts
-test('flaky test - navigate then mock', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Navigation starts immediately
-  await page.goto('/dashboard'); // Request to /api/users fires NOW
-
-  // Mock registered too late - request already sent
-  await page.route('**/api/users', (route) =>
-    route.fulfill({
-      status: 200,
-      body: JSON.stringify([{ id: 1, name: 'Test User' }]),
-    }),
-  );
-
-  // Test randomly passes/fails depending on timing
-  await expect(page.getByText('Test User')).toBeVisible(); // Flaky!
-});
-
-// ❌ BAD: No wait for response
-test('flaky test - no explicit wait', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.route('**/api/users', (route) => route.fulfill({ status: 200, body: JSON.stringify([]) }));
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Assertion runs immediately - may fail if response slow
-  await expect(page.getByText('No users found')).toBeVisible(); // Flaky!
-});
-
-// ❌ BAD: Generic timeout
-test('flaky test - hard wait', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(2000); // Arbitrary wait - brittle
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Why It Fails**:
-
-- **Mock after navigate**: Request fires during navigation, mock isn't active yet (race condition)
-- **No explicit wait**: Assertion runs before response arrives (timing-dependent)
-- **Hard waits**: Slow tests, brittle (fails if < timeout, wastes time if > timeout)
-- **Non-deterministic**: Passes locally, fails in CI (different speeds)
-
-**Better Approach**: Always intercept → trigger → await
-
-```typescript
-// ✅ GOOD: Intercept BEFORE navigate
-test('deterministic test', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Step 1: Register mock FIRST
-  await page.route('**/api/users', (route) =>
-    route.fulfill({
-      status: 200,
-      contentType: 'application/json',
-      body: JSON.stringify([{ id: 1, name: 'Test User' }]),
-    }),
-  );
-
-  // Step 2: Store response promise BEFORE trigger
-  const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/users');
-
-  // Step 3: THEN trigger
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Step 4: THEN await response
-  await responsePromise;
-
-  // Step 5: THEN assert (data is guaranteed loaded)
-  await expect(page.getByText('Test User')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Order matters: Mock → Promise → Trigger → Await → Assert
-- No race conditions: Mock is active before request fires
-- Explicit wait: Response promise ensures data loaded
-- Deterministic: Always passes if app works correctly
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*atdd` (test generation), `*automate` (test expansion), `*framework` (network setup)
-- **Related fragments**:
-  - `fixture-architecture.md` - Network fixture patterns
-  - `data-factories.md` - API-first setup with network
-  - `test-quality.md` - Deterministic test principles
-
-## Debugging Network Issues
-
-When network tests fail, check:
-
-1. **Timing**: Is interception registered **before** action?
-2. **URL pattern**: Does pattern match actual request URL?
-3. **Response format**: Is mocked response valid JSON/format?
-4. **Status code**: Is app checking for 200 vs 201 vs 204?
-5. **HAR file**: Capture real traffic to understand actual API contract
-
-```typescript
-// Debug network issues with logging
-test('debug network', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Log all requests
-  page.on('request', (req) => console.log('→', req.method(), req.url()));
-
-  // Log all responses
-  page.on('response', (resp) => console.log('←', resp.status(), resp.url()));
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-});
-```

-# Network Recorder Utility
-
-## Principle
-
-Record network traffic to HAR files during test execution, then play back from disk for offline testing. Enables frontend tests to run in complete isolation from backend services with intelligent stateful CRUD detection for realistic API behavior.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Traditional E2E tests require live backend services:
-
-- Slow (real network latency)
-- Flaky (backend instability affects tests)
-- Expensive (full stack running for UI tests)
-- Coupled (UI tests break when API changes)
-
-HAR-based recording/playback provides:
-
-- **True offline testing**: UI tests run without backend
-- **Deterministic behavior**: Same responses every time
-- **Fast execution**: No network latency
-- **Stateful mocking**: CRUD operations work naturally (not just read-only)
-- **Environment flexibility**: Map URLs for any environment
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Record and Playback
-
-**Context**: The fundamental pattern - record traffic once, play back for all subsequent runs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/network-recorder/fixtures';
-
-// Set mode in test file (recommended)
-process.env.PW_NET_MODE = 'playback'; // or 'record'
-
-test('CRUD operations work offline', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder }) => {
-  // Setup recorder (records or plays back based on PW_NET_MODE)
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context);
-
-  await page.goto('/');
-
-  // First time (record mode): Records all network traffic to HAR
-  // Subsequent runs (playback mode): Plays back from HAR (no backend!)
-  await page.fill('#movie-name', 'Inception');
-  await page.click('#add-movie');
-
-  // Intelligent CRUD detection makes this work offline!
-  await expect(page.getByText('Inception')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `PW_NET_MODE=record` captures traffic to HAR files
-- `PW_NET_MODE=playback` replays from HAR files
-- Set mode in test file or via environment variable
-- HAR files auto-organized by test name
-- Stateful mocking detects CRUD operations
-
-### Example 2: Complete CRUD Flow with HAR
-
-**Context**: Full create-read-update-delete flow that works completely offline.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-process.env.PW_NET_MODE = 'playback';
-
-test.describe('Movie CRUD - offline with network recorder', () => {
-  test.beforeEach(async ({ page, networkRecorder, context }) => {
-    await networkRecorder.setup(context);
-    await page.goto('/');
-  });
-
-  test('should add, edit, delete movie browser-only', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-    // Create
-    await page.fill('#movie-name', 'Inception');
-    await page.fill('#year', '2010');
-    await page.click('#add-movie');
-
-    // Verify create (reads from stateful HAR)
-    await expect(page.getByText('Inception')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Update
-    await page.getByText('Inception').click();
-    await page.fill('#movie-name', "Inception Director's Cut");
-
-    const updateCall = interceptNetworkCall({
-      method: 'PUT',
-      url: '/movies/*',
-    });
-
-    await page.click('#save');
-    await updateCall; // Wait for update
-
-    // Verify update (HAR reflects state change!)
-    await page.click('#back');
-    await expect(page.getByText("Inception Director's Cut")).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Delete
-    await page.click(`[data-testid="delete-Inception Director's Cut"]`);
-
-    // Verify delete (HAR reflects removal!)
-    await expect(page.getByText("Inception Director's Cut")).not.toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Full CRUD operations work offline
-- Stateful HAR mocking tracks creates/updates/deletes
-- Combine with `interceptNetworkCall` for deterministic waits
-- First run records, subsequent runs replay
-
-### Example 3: Environment Switching
-
-**Context**: Record in dev environment, play back in CI with different base URLs.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Map URLs for different environments
-export default defineConfig({
-  use: {
-    baseURL: process.env.CI ? 'https://app.ci.example.com' : 'http://localhost:3000',
-  },
-});
-
-// Test works in both environments
-test('cross-environment playback', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder }) => {
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context);
-
-  // In dev: hits http://localhost:3000/api/movies
-  // In CI: HAR replays with https://app.ci.example.com/api/movies
-  await page.goto('/movies');
-
-  // Network recorder auto-maps URLs
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('movie-list')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- HAR files record absolute URLs
-- Playback maps to current baseURL
-- Same HAR works across environments
-- No manual URL rewriting needed
-
-### Example 4: Automatic vs Manual Mode Control
-
-**Context**: Choose between environment-based switching or in-test mode control.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Option 1: Environment variable (recommended for CI)
-PW_NET_MODE=record npm run test:pw   # Record traffic
-PW_NET_MODE=playback npm run test:pw # Playback traffic
-
-// Option 2: In-test control (recommended for development)
-process.env.PW_NET_MODE = 'record'  // Set at top of test file
-
-test('my test', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder }) => {
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context)
-  // ...
-})
-
-// Option 3: Auto-fallback (record if HAR missing, else playback)
-// This is the default behavior when PW_NET_MODE not set
-test('auto mode', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder }) => {
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context)
-  // First run: auto-records
-  // Subsequent runs: auto-plays back
-})
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Three mode options: record, playback, auto
-- `PW_NET_MODE` environment variable
-- In-test `process.env.PW_NET_MODE` assignment
-- Auto-fallback when no mode specified
-
-## Why Use This Instead of Native Playwright?
-
-| Native Playwright (`routeFromHAR`) | network-recorder Utility       |
-| ---------------------------------- | ------------------------------ |
-| ~80 lines setup boilerplate        | ~5 lines total                 |
-| Manual HAR file management         | Automatic file organization    |
-| Complex setup/teardown             | Automatic cleanup via fixtures |
-| **Read-only tests**                | **Full CRUD support**          |
-| **Stateless**                      | **Stateful mocking**           |
-| Manual URL mapping                 | Automatic environment mapping  |
-
-**The game-changer: Stateful CRUD detection**
-
-Native Playwright HAR playback is stateless - a POST create followed by GET list won't show the created item. This utility intelligently tracks CRUD operations in memory to reflect state changes, making offline tests behave like real APIs.
-
-## Integration with Other Utilities
-
-**With interceptNetworkCall** (deterministic waits):
-
-```typescript
-test('use both utilities', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context);
-
-  const createCall = interceptNetworkCall({
-    method: 'POST',
-    url: '/api/movies',
-  });
-
-  await page.click('#add-movie');
-  await createCall; // Wait for create (works with HAR!)
-
-  // Network recorder provides playback, intercept provides determinism
-});
-```
-
-## Related Fragments
-
-- `overview.md` - Installation and fixture patterns
-- `intercept-network-call.md` - Combine for deterministic offline tests
-- `auth-session.md` - Record authenticated traffic
-- `network-first.md` - Core pattern for intercept-before-navigate
-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Mixing record and playback in same test:**
-
-```typescript
-process.env.PW_NET_MODE = 'record';
-// ... some test code ...
-process.env.PW_NET_MODE = 'playback'; // Don't switch mid-test
-```
-
-**✅ One mode per test:**
-
-```typescript
-process.env.PW_NET_MODE = 'playback'; // Set once at top
-
-test('my test', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder }) => {
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context);
-  // Entire test uses playback mode
-});
-```
-
-**❌ Forgetting to call setup:**
-
-```typescript
-test('broken', async ({ page, networkRecorder }) => {
-  await page.goto('/'); // HAR not active!
-});
-```
-
-**✅ Always call setup before navigation:**
-
-```typescript
-test('correct', async ({ page, context, networkRecorder }) => {
-  await networkRecorder.setup(context); // Must setup first
-  await page.goto('/'); // Now HAR is active
-});
-```

-# Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) Criteria
-
-## Principle
-
-Non-functional requirements (security, performance, reliability, maintainability) are **validated through automated tests**, not checklists. NFR assessment uses objective pass/fail criteria tied to measurable thresholds. Ambiguous requirements default to CONCERNS until clarified.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: Teams ship features that "work" functionally but fail under load, expose security vulnerabilities, or lack error recovery. NFRs are treated as optional "nice-to-haves" instead of release blockers.
-
-**The Solution**: Define explicit NFR criteria with automated validation. Security tests verify auth/authz and secret handling. Performance tests enforce SLO/SLA thresholds with profiling evidence. Reliability tests validate error handling, retries, and health checks. Maintainability is measured by test coverage, code duplication, and observability.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Prevents production incidents (security breaches, performance degradation, cascading failures)
-- Provides objective release criteria (no subjective "feels fast enough")
-- Automates compliance validation (audit trail for regulated environments)
-- Forces clarity on ambiguous requirements (default to CONCERNS)
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Security NFR Validation (Auth, Secrets, OWASP)
-
-**Context**: Automated security tests enforcing authentication, authorization, and secret handling
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/nfr/security.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Security NFR: Authentication & Authorization', () => {
-  test('unauthenticated users cannot access protected routes', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Attempt to access dashboard without auth
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // Should redirect to login (not expose data)
-    await expect(page).toHaveURL(/\/login/);
-    await expect(page.getByText('Please sign in')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Verify no sensitive data leaked in response
-    const pageContent = await page.content();
-    expect(pageContent).not.toContain('user_id');
-    expect(pageContent).not.toContain('api_key');
-  });
-
-  test('JWT tokens expire after 15 minutes', async ({ page, request }) => {
-    // Login and capture token
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.getByLabel('Email').fill('test@example.com');
-    await page.getByLabel('Password').fill('ValidPass123!');
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign In' }).click();
-
-    const token = await page.evaluate(() => localStorage.getItem('auth_token'));
-    expect(token).toBeTruthy();
-
-    // Wait 16 minutes (use mock clock in real tests)
-    await page.clock.fastForward('00:16:00');
-
-    // Token should be expired, API call should fail
-    const response = await request.get('/api/user/profile', {
-      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${token}` },
-    });
-
-    expect(response.status()).toBe(401);
-    const body = await response.json();

-    // Trigger login error
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.getByLabel('Email').fill('test@example.com');
-    await page.getByLabel('Password').fill('WrongPassword123!');
-
-    // Monitor console for password leaks
-    const consoleLogs: string[] = [];
-    page.on('console', (msg) => consoleLogs.push(msg.text()));
-
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign In' }).click();

-    expect(pageContent).not.toContain('WrongPassword123!');
-    expect(consoleLogs.join('\n')).not.toContain('WrongPassword123!');
-  });
-
-  test('RBAC: users can only access resources they own', async ({ page, request }) => {
-    // Login as User A
-    const userAToken = await login(request, 'userA@example.com', 'password');
-
-    // Try to access User B's order
-    const response = await request.get('/api/orders/user-b-order-id', {
-      headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${userAToken}` },
-    });
-
-    expect(response.status()).toBe(403); // Forbidden
-    const body = await response.json();
-    expect(body.error).toContain('insufficient permissions');
-  });
-
-  test('SQL injection attempts are blocked', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/search');
-
-    // Attempt SQL injection
-    await page.getByPlaceholder('Search products').fill("'; DROP TABLE users; --");
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Search' }).click();
-
-    // Should return empty results, NOT crash or expose error
-    await expect(page.getByText('No results found')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Verify app still works (table not dropped)
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-    await expect(page.getByText('Welcome')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('XSS attempts are sanitized', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/profile/edit');
-
-    // Attempt XSS injection
-    const xssPayload = '<script>alert("XSS")</script>';

-// Helper
-async function login(request: any, email: string, password: string): Promise<string> {
-  const response = await request.post('/api/auth/login', {
-    data: { email, password },
-  });
-  const body = await response.json();
-  return body.token;
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Authentication: Unauthenticated access redirected (not exposed)
-- Authorization: RBAC enforced (403 for insufficient permissions)
-- Token expiry: JWT expires after 15 minutes (automated validation)
-- Secret handling: Passwords never logged or exposed in errors
-- OWASP Top 10: SQL injection and XSS blocked (input sanitization)
-
-**Security NFR Criteria**:
-
-- ✅ PASS: All 6 tests green (auth, authz, token expiry, secret handling, SQL injection, XSS)
-- ⚠️ CONCERNS: 1-2 tests failing with mitigation plan and owner assigned
-- ❌ FAIL: Critical exposure (unauthenticated access, password leak, SQL injection succeeds)

-### Example 2: Performance NFR Validation (k6 Load Testing for SLO/SLA)
-
-**Context**: Use k6 for load testing, stress testing, and SLO/SLA enforcement (NOT Playwright)
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```javascript
-// tests/nfr/performance.k6.js
-import http from 'k6/http';
-import { check, sleep } from 'k6';
-import { Rate, Trend } from 'k6/metrics';
-
-// Custom metrics

-    { duration: '1m', target: 100 }, // Spike to 100 users
-    { duration: '3m', target: 100 }, // Stay at 100 users
-    { duration: '1m', target: 0 }, // Ramp down
-  ],
-  thresholds: {
-    // SLO: 95% of requests must complete in <500ms
-    http_req_duration: ['p(95)<500'],
-    // SLO: Error rate must be <1%
-    errors: ['rate<0.01'],
-    // SLA: API endpoints must respond in <1s (99th percentile)
-    api_duration: ['p(99)<1000'],
-  },
-};
-
-export default function () {
-  // Test 1: Homepage load performance
-  const homepageResponse = http.get(`${__ENV.BASE_URL}/`);
-  check(homepageResponse, {
-    'homepage status is 200': (r) => r.status === 200,
-    'homepage loads in <2s': (r) => r.timings.duration < 2000,
-  });
-  errorRate.add(homepageResponse.status !== 200);
-
-  // Test 2: API endpoint performance
-  const apiResponse = http.get(`${__ENV.BASE_URL}/api/products?limit=10`, {
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${__ENV.API_TOKEN}` },
-  });
-  check(apiResponse, {

-  });
-  apiDuration.add(apiResponse.timings.duration);
-  errorRate.add(apiResponse.status !== 200);
-
-  // Test 3: Search endpoint under load

-    'search returns results': (r) => JSON.parse(r.body).results.length > 0,
-  });
-  errorRate.add(searchResponse.status !== 200);
-
-  sleep(1); // Realistic user think time
-}
-
-// Threshold validation (run after test)
-export function handleSummary(data) {
-  const p95Duration = data.metrics.http_req_duration.values['p(95)'];

-    `,
-  };
-}
-```
-
-**Run k6 tests:**
-
-```bash
-# Local smoke test (10 VUs, 30s)
-k6 run --vus 10 --duration 30s tests/nfr/performance.k6.js
-
-# Full load test (stages defined in script)
-k6 run tests/nfr/performance.k6.js
-
-# CI integration with thresholds
-k6 run --out json=performance-results.json tests/nfr/performance.k6.js
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **k6 is the right tool** for load testing (NOT Playwright)
-- SLO/SLA thresholds enforced automatically (`p(95)<500`, `rate<0.01`)
-- Realistic load simulation (ramp up, sustained load, spike testing)
-- Comprehensive metrics (p50, p95, p99, error rate, throughput)
-- CI-friendly (JSON output, exit codes based on thresholds)
-
-**Performance NFR Criteria**:
-
-- ✅ PASS: All SLO/SLA targets met with k6 profiling evidence (p95 < 500ms, error rate < 1%)
-- ⚠️ CONCERNS: Trending toward limits (e.g., p95 = 480ms approaching 500ms) or missing baselines
-- ❌ FAIL: SLO/SLA breached (e.g., p95 > 500ms) or error rate > 1%
-
-**Performance Testing Levels (from Test Architect course):**
-
-- **Load testing**: System behavior under expected load
-- **Stress testing**: System behavior under extreme load (breaking point)
-- **Spike testing**: Sudden load increases (traffic spikes)
-- **Endurance/Soak testing**: System behavior under sustained load (memory leaks, resource exhaustion)
-- **Benchmarking**: Baseline measurements for comparison
-
-**Note**: Playwright can validate **perceived performance** (Core Web Vitals via Lighthouse), but k6 validates **system performance** (throughput, latency, resource limits under load)

-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Error handling: Graceful degradation (500 error → user-friendly message + retry button)
-- Retries: 3 attempts on transient failures (503 → eventual success)
-- Offline handling: Network disconnection detected (sync when reconnected)
-- Health checks: `/api/health` monitors database, cache, queue
-- Circuit breaker: Opens after 5 failures (fallback UI, stop retries)
-- Rate limiting: 429 response handled (Retry-After header respected)
-
-**Reliability NFR Criteria**:
-
-- ✅ PASS: Error handling, retries, health checks verified (all 6 tests green)
-- ⚠️ CONCERNS: Partial coverage (e.g., missing circuit breaker) or no telemetry
-- ❌ FAIL: No recovery path (500 error crashes app) or unresolved crash scenarios

-**Playwright Tests for Observability (E2E Validation):**
-
-```typescript
-// tests/nfr/observability.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Maintainability NFR: Observability Validation', () => {
-  test('critical errors are reported to monitoring service', async ({ page, context }) => {

-    });
-

-      if (msg.text().includes('SENTRY_CAPTURE:')) {
-        sentryEvents.push(JSON.parse(msg.text().replace('SENTRY_CAPTURE:', '')));
-      }

-    expect(traceId).toBeTruthy(); // Confirms structured logging with correlation IDs
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Coverage/duplication**: CI jobs (GitHub Actions), not Playwright tests
-- **Vulnerability scanning**: npm audit in CI, not Playwright tests
-- **Observability**: Playwright validates error tracking (Sentry) and telemetry headers
-- **Structured logging**: Validate logging contract (trace IDs, Server-Timing headers)
-- **Separation of concerns**: Build-time checks (coverage, audit) vs runtime checks (error tracking, telemetry)
-
-**Maintainability NFR Criteria**:
-
-- ✅ PASS: Clean code (80%+ coverage from CI, <5% duplication from CI), observability validated in E2E, no critical vulnerabilities from npm audit
-- ⚠️ CONCERNS: Duplication >5%, coverage 60-79%, or unclear ownership
-- ❌ FAIL: Absent tests (<60%), tangled implementations (>10% duplication), or no observability

-# Playwright Utils Overview
-
-## Principle
-
-Use production-ready, fixture-based utilities from `@seontechnologies/playwright-utils` for common Playwright testing patterns. Build test helpers as pure functions first, then wrap in framework-specific fixtures for composability and reuse.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Writing Playwright utilities from scratch for every project leads to:
-
-- Duplicated code across test suites
-- Inconsistent patterns and quality
-- Maintenance burden when Playwright APIs change
-- Missing advanced features (schema validation, HAR recording, auth persistence)
-
-`@seontechnologies/playwright-utils` provides:
-
-- **Production-tested utilities**: Used at SEON Technologies in production
-- **Functional-first design**: Core logic as pure functions, fixtures for convenience
-- **Composable fixtures**: Use `mergeTests` to combine utilities
-- **TypeScript support**: Full type safety with generic types
-- **Comprehensive coverage**: API requests, auth, network, logging, file handling, burn-in
-
-## Installation
-
-```bash
-npm install -D @seontechnologies/playwright-utils
-```
-
-**Peer Dependencies:**
-
-- `@playwright/test` >= 1.54.1 (required)
-- `ajv` >= 8.0.0 (optional - for JSON Schema validation)
-- `zod` >= 3.0.0 (optional - for Zod schema validation)
-
-## Available Utilities
-
-### Core Testing Utilities
-
-| Utility                    | Purpose                                    | Test Context  |
-| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | ------------- |
-| **api-request**            | Typed HTTP client with schema validation   | API tests     |
-| **network-recorder**       | HAR record/playback for offline testing    | UI tests      |
-| **auth-session**           | Token persistence, multi-user auth         | Both UI & API |
-| **recurse**                | Cypress-style polling for async conditions | Both UI & API |
-| **intercept-network-call** | Network spy/stub with auto JSON parsing    | UI tests      |
-| **log**                    | Playwright report-integrated logging       | Both UI & API |
-| **file-utils**             | CSV/XLSX/PDF/ZIP reading & validation      | Both UI & API |
-| **burn-in**                | Smart test selection with git diff         | CI/CD         |
-| **network-error-monitor**  | Automatic HTTP 4xx/5xx detection           | UI tests      |
-
-## Design Patterns
-
-### Pattern 1: Functional Core, Fixture Shell
-
-**Context**: All utilities follow the same architectural pattern - pure function as core, fixture as wrapper.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Direct import (pass Playwright context explicitly)
-import { apiRequest } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils';
-
-test('direct usage', async ({ request }) => {
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest({
-    request, // Must pass request context
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users',
-  });
-});
-
-// Fixture import (context injected automatically)
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures';
-
-test('fixture usage', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest({
-    // No need to pass request context
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users',
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Pure functions testable without Playwright running
-- Fixtures inject framework dependencies automatically
-- Choose direct import (more control) or fixture (convenience)
-
-### Pattern 2: Subpath Imports for Tree-Shaking
-
-**Context**: Import only what you need to keep bundle sizes small.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// Import specific utility
-import { apiRequest } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request';
-
-// Import specific fixture
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-
-// Import everything (use sparingly)
-import { apiRequest, recurse, log } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils';
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Subpath imports enable tree-shaking
-- Keep bundle sizes minimal
-- Import from specific paths for production builds
-
-### Pattern 3: Fixture Composition with mergeTests
-
-**Context**: Combine multiple playwright-utils fixtures with your own custom fixtures.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/merged-fixtures.ts
-import { mergeTests } from '@playwright/test';
-import { test as apiRequestFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-import { test as authFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-import { test as recurseFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/recurse/fixtures';
-import { test as logFixture } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/log/fixtures';
-
-// Merge all fixtures into one test object
-export const test = mergeTests(apiRequestFixture, authFixture, recurseFixture, logFixture);
-
-export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-```
-
-```typescript
-// In your tests
-import { test, expect } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('all utilities available', async ({ apiRequest, authToken, recurse, log }) => {
-  await log.step('Making authenticated API request');
-
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/protected',
-    headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${authToken}` },
-  });
-
-  await recurse(
-    () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: `/status/${body.id}` }),
-    (res) => res.body.ready === true,
-  );
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `mergeTests` combines multiple fixtures without conflicts
-- Create one merged-fixtures.ts file per project
-- Import test object from your merged fixtures in all tests
-- All utilities available in single test signature
-
-## Integration with Existing Tests
-
-### Gradual Adoption Strategy
-
-**1. Start with logging** (zero breaking changes):
-
-```typescript
-import { log } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils';
-
-test('existing test', async ({ page }) => {
-  await log.step('Navigate to page'); // Just add logging
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  // Rest of test unchanged
-});
-```
-
-**2. Add API utilities** (for API tests):
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request/fixtures';
-
-test('API test', async ({ apiRequest }) => {
-  const { status, body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'GET',
-    path: '/api/users',
-  });
-
-  expect(status).toBe(200);
-});
-```
-
-**3. Expand to network utilities** (for UI tests):
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures';
-
-test('UI with network control', async ({ page, interceptNetworkCall }) => {
-  const usersCall = interceptNetworkCall({
-    url: '**/api/users',
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  const { responseJson } = await usersCall;
-
-  expect(responseJson).toHaveLength(10);
-});
-```
-
-**4. Full integration** (merged fixtures):
-
-Create merged-fixtures.ts and use across all tests.
-

-
-## Anti-Patterns
-
-**❌ Don't mix direct and fixture imports in same test:**
-
-```typescript
-import { apiRequest } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils';
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/auth-session/fixtures';
-
-test('bad', async ({ request, authToken }) => {
-  // Confusing - mixing direct (needs request) and fixture (has authToken)
-  await apiRequest({ request, method: 'GET', path: '/api/users' });
-});
-```
-
-**✅ Use consistent import style:**
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '../support/merged-fixtures';
-
-test('good', async ({ apiRequest, authToken }) => {
-  // Clean - all from fixtures
-  await apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/users' });
-});
-```
-
-**❌ Don't import everything when you need one utility:**
-
-```typescript
-import * as utils from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils'; // Large bundle
-```
-
-**✅ Use subpath imports:**
-
-```typescript
-import { apiRequest } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/api-request'; // Small bundle
-```

-# Playwright Configuration Guardrails
-
-## Principle
-
-Load environment configs via a central map (`envConfigMap`), standardize timeouts (action 15s, navigation 30s, expect 10s, test 60s), emit HTML + JUnit reporters, and store artifacts under `test-results/` for CI upload. Keep `.env.example`, `.nvmrc`, and browser dependencies versioned so local and CI runs stay aligned.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Environment-specific configuration prevents hardcoded URLs, timeouts, and credentials from leaking into tests. A central config map with fail-fast validation catches missing environments early. Standardized timeouts reduce flakiness while remaining long enough for real-world network conditions. Consistent artifact storage (`test-results/`, `playwright-report/`) enables CI pipelines to upload failure evidence automatically. Versioned dependencies (`.nvmrc`, `package.json` browser versions) eliminate "works on my machine" issues between local and CI environments.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Environment-Based Configuration
-
-**Context**: When testing against multiple environments (local, staging, production), use a central config map that loads environment-specific settings and fails fast if `TEST_ENV` is invalid.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Central config loader
-import { config as dotenvConfig } from 'dotenv';
-import path from 'path';
-
-// Load .env from project root
-dotenvConfig({
-  path: path.resolve(__dirname, '../../.env'),
-});
-
-// Central environment config map
-const envConfigMap = {
-  local: require('./playwright/config/local.config').default,
-  staging: require('./playwright/config/staging.config').default,
-  production: require('./playwright/config/production.config').default,
-};
-
-const environment = process.env.TEST_ENV || 'local';
-
-// Fail fast if environment not supported
-if (!Object.keys(envConfigMap).includes(environment)) {
-  console.error(`❌ No configuration found for environment: ${environment}`);
-  console.error(`   Available environments: ${Object.keys(envConfigMap).join(', ')}`);
-  process.exit(1);
-}
-
-console.log(`✅ Running tests against: ${environment.toUpperCase()}`);
-
-export default envConfigMap[environment as keyof typeof envConfigMap];
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/config/base.config.ts - Shared base configuration
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import path from 'path';
-
-export const baseConfig = defineConfig({
-  testDir: path.resolve(__dirname, '../tests'),
-  outputDir: path.resolve(__dirname, '../../test-results'),
-  fullyParallel: true,
-  forbidOnly: !!process.env.CI,
-  retries: process.env.CI ? 2 : 0,
-  workers: process.env.CI ? 1 : undefined,
-  reporter: [
-    ['html', { outputFolder: 'playwright-report', open: 'never' }],
-    ['junit', { outputFile: 'test-results/results.xml' }],
-    ['list'],
-  ],
-  use: {
-    actionTimeout: 15000,
-    navigationTimeout: 30000,
-    trace: 'on-first-retry',
-    screenshot: 'only-on-failure',
-    video: 'retain-on-failure',
-  },
-  globalSetup: path.resolve(__dirname, '../support/global-setup.ts'),
-  timeout: 60000,
-  expect: { timeout: 10000 },
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/config/local.config.ts - Local environment
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import { baseConfig } from './base.config';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  ...baseConfig,
-  use: {
-    ...baseConfig.use,
-    baseURL: 'http://localhost:3000',
-    video: 'off', // No video locally for speed
-  },
-  webServer: {
-    command: 'npm run dev',
-    url: 'http://localhost:3000',
-    reuseExistingServer: !process.env.CI,
-    timeout: 120000,
-  },
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/config/staging.config.ts - Staging environment
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import { baseConfig } from './base.config';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  ...baseConfig,
-  use: {
-    ...baseConfig.use,
-    baseURL: 'https://staging.example.com',
-    ignoreHTTPSErrors: true, // Allow self-signed certs in staging
-  },
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/config/production.config.ts - Production environment
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import { baseConfig } from './base.config';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  ...baseConfig,
-  retries: 3, // More retries in production
-  use: {
-    ...baseConfig.use,
-    baseURL: 'https://example.com',
-    video: 'on', // Always record production failures
-  },
-});
-```
-
-```bash
-# .env.example - Template for developers
-TEST_ENV=local
-API_KEY=your_api_key_here
-DATABASE_URL=postgresql://localhost:5432/test_db
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Central `envConfigMap` prevents environment misconfiguration
-- Fail-fast validation with clear error message (available envs listed)
-- Base config defines shared settings, environment configs override
-- `.env.example` provides template for required secrets
-- `TEST_ENV=local` as default for local development
-- Production config increases retries and enables video recording
-
-### Example 2: Timeout Standards
-
-**Context**: When tests fail due to inconsistent timeout settings, standardize timeouts across all tests: action 15s, navigation 30s, expect 10s, test 60s. Expose overrides through fixtures rather than inline literals.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/config/base.config.ts - Standardized timeouts
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  // Global test timeout: 60 seconds
-  timeout: 60000,
-
-  use: {
-    // Action timeout: 15 seconds (click, fill, etc.)
-    actionTimeout: 15000,
-
-    // Navigation timeout: 30 seconds (page.goto, page.reload)
-    navigationTimeout: 30000,
-  },
-
-  // Expect timeout: 10 seconds (all assertions)
-  expect: {
-    timeout: 10000,
-  },
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/fixtures/timeout-fixture.ts - Timeout override fixture
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-
-type TimeoutOptions = {
-  extendedTimeout: (timeoutMs: number) => Promise<void>;
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<TimeoutOptions>({
-  extendedTimeout: async ({}, use, testInfo) => {
-    const originalTimeout = testInfo.timeout;
-
-    await use(async (timeoutMs: number) => {
-      testInfo.setTimeout(timeoutMs);
-    });
-
-    // Restore original timeout after test
-    testInfo.setTimeout(originalTimeout);
-  },
-});
-
-export { expect } from '@playwright/test';
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Usage in tests - Standard timeouts (implicit)
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test('user can log in', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/login'); // Uses 30s navigation timeout
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', 'test@example.com'); // Uses 15s action timeout
-  await page.click('[data-testid="login-button"]'); // Uses 15s action timeout
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('Welcome')).toBeVisible(); // Uses 10s expect timeout
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Usage in tests - Per-test timeout override
-import { test, expect } from '../support/fixtures/timeout-fixture';
-
-test('slow data processing operation', async ({ page, extendedTimeout }) => {
-  // Override default 60s timeout for this slow test
-  await extendedTimeout(180000); // 3 minutes
-
-  await page.goto('/data-processing');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="process-large-file"]');
-
-  // Wait for long-running operation
-  await expect(page.getByText('Processing complete')).toBeVisible({
-    timeout: 120000, // 2 minutes for assertion
-  });
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Per-assertion timeout override (inline)
-test('API returns quickly', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Override expect timeout for fast API (reduce flakiness detection)
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('user-name')).toBeVisible({ timeout: 5000 }); // 5s instead of 10s
-
-  // Override expect timeout for slow external API
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('weather-widget')).toBeVisible({ timeout: 20000 }); // 20s instead of 10s
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Standardized timeouts**: action 15s, navigation 30s, expect 10s, test 60s (global defaults)
-- Fixture-based override (`extendedTimeout`) for slow tests (preferred over inline)
-- Per-assertion timeout override via `{ timeout: X }` option (use sparingly)
-- Avoid hard waits (`page.waitForTimeout(3000)`) - use event-based waits instead
-- CI environments may need longer timeouts (handle in environment-specific config)
-
-### Example 3: Artifact Output Configuration
-
-**Context**: When debugging failures in CI, configure artifacts (screenshots, videos, traces, HTML reports) to be captured on failure and stored in consistent locations for upload.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Artifact configuration
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import path from 'path';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  // Output directory for test artifacts
-  outputDir: path.resolve(__dirname, './test-results'),
-
-  use: {
-    // Screenshot on failure only (saves space)
-    screenshot: 'only-on-failure',
-
-    // Video recording on failure + retry
-    video: 'retain-on-failure',
-
-    // Trace recording on first retry (best debugging data)
-    trace: 'on-first-retry',
-  },
-
-  reporter: [
-    // HTML report (visual, interactive)
-    [
-      'html',
-      {
-        outputFolder: 'playwright-report',
-        open: 'never', // Don't auto-open in CI
-      },
-    ],
-
-    // JUnit XML (CI integration)
-    [
-      'junit',
-      {
-        outputFile: 'test-results/results.xml',
-      },
-    ],
-
-    // List reporter (console output)
-    ['list'],
-  ],
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/fixtures/artifact-fixture.ts - Custom artifact capture
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import fs from 'fs';
-import path from 'path';
-
-export const test = base.extend({
-  // Auto-capture console logs on failure
-  page: async ({ page }, use, testInfo) => {
-    const logs: string[] = [];
-
-    page.on('console', (msg) => {
-      logs.push(`[${msg.type()}] ${msg.text()}`);
-    });
-
-    await use(page);
-
-    // Save logs on failure
-    if (testInfo.status !== testInfo.expectedStatus) {
-      const logsPath = path.join(testInfo.outputDir, 'console-logs.txt');
-      fs.writeFileSync(logsPath, logs.join('\n'));
-      testInfo.attachments.push({
-        name: 'console-logs',
-        contentType: 'text/plain',
-        path: logsPath,
-      });
-    }
-  },
-});
-```
-
-```yaml
-# .github/workflows/e2e.yml - CI artifact upload
-name: E2E Tests
-on: [push, pull_request]
-
-jobs:
-  test:
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
-        with:
-          node-version-file: '.nvmrc'
-
-      - name: Install dependencies
-        run: npm ci
-
-      - name: Install Playwright browsers
-        run: npx playwright install --with-deps
-
-      - name: Run tests
-        run: npm run test
-        env:
-          TEST_ENV: staging
-
-      # Upload test artifacts on failure
-      - name: Upload test results
-        if: failure()
-        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
-        with:
-          name: test-results
-          path: test-results/
-          retention-days: 30
-
-      - name: Upload Playwright report
-        if: failure()
-        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
-        with:
-          name: playwright-report
-          path: playwright-report/
-          retention-days: 30
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Example: Custom screenshot on specific condition
-test('capture screenshot on specific error', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-  try {
-    await page.click('[data-testid="submit-payment"]');
-    await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-  } catch (error) {
-    // Capture custom screenshot with timestamp
-    await page.screenshot({
-      path: `test-results/payment-error-${Date.now()}.png`,
-      fullPage: true,
-    });
-    throw error;
-  }
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `screenshot: 'only-on-failure'` saves space (not every test)
-- `video: 'retain-on-failure'` captures full flow on failures
-- `trace: 'on-first-retry'` provides deep debugging data (network, DOM, console)
-- HTML report at `playwright-report/` (visual debugging)
-- JUnit XML at `test-results/results.xml` (CI integration)
-- CI uploads artifacts on failure with 30-day retention
-- Custom fixture can capture console logs, network logs, etc.
-
-### Example 4: Parallelization Configuration
-
-**Context**: When tests run slowly in CI, configure parallelization with worker count, sharding, and fully parallel execution to maximize speed while maintaining stability.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Parallelization settings
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import os from 'os';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  // Run tests in parallel within single file
-  fullyParallel: true,
-
-  // Worker configuration
-  workers: process.env.CI
-    ? 1 // Serial in CI for stability (or 2 for faster CI)
-    : os.cpus().length - 1, // Parallel locally (leave 1 CPU for OS)
-
-  // Prevent accidentally committed .only() from blocking CI
-  forbidOnly: !!process.env.CI,
-
-  // Retry failed tests in CI
-  retries: process.env.CI ? 2 : 0,
-
-  // Shard configuration (split tests across multiple machines)
-  shard:
-    process.env.SHARD_INDEX && process.env.SHARD_TOTAL
-      ? {
-          current: parseInt(process.env.SHARD_INDEX, 10),
-          total: parseInt(process.env.SHARD_TOTAL, 10),
-        }
-      : undefined,
-});
-```
-
-```yaml
-# .github/workflows/e2e-parallel.yml - Sharded CI execution
-name: E2E Tests (Parallel)
-on: [push, pull_request]
-
-jobs:
-  test:
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    strategy:
-      fail-fast: false
-      matrix:
-        shard: [1, 2, 3, 4] # Split tests across 4 machines
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
-        with:
-          node-version-file: '.nvmrc'
-
-      - name: Install dependencies
-        run: npm ci
-
-      - name: Install Playwright browsers
-        run: npx playwright install --with-deps
-
-      - name: Run tests (shard ${{ matrix.shard }})
-        run: npm run test
-        env:
-          SHARD_INDEX: ${{ matrix.shard }}
-          SHARD_TOTAL: 4
-          TEST_ENV: staging
-
-      - name: Upload test results
-        if: failure()
-        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
-        with:
-          name: test-results-shard-${{ matrix.shard }}
-          path: test-results/
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/config/serial.config.ts - Serial execution for flaky tests
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import { baseConfig } from './base.config';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  ...baseConfig,
-
-  // Disable parallel execution
-  fullyParallel: false,
-  workers: 1,
-
-  // Used for: authentication flows, database-dependent tests, feature flag tests
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Usage: Force serial execution for specific tests
-import { test } from '@playwright/test';
-
-// Serial execution for auth tests (shared session state)
-test.describe.configure({ mode: 'serial' });
-
-test.describe('Authentication Flow', () => {
-  test('user can log in', async ({ page }) => {
-    // First test in serial block
-  });
-
-  test('user can access dashboard', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Depends on previous test (serial)
-  });
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Usage: Parallel execution for independent tests (default)
-import { test } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Product Catalog', () => {
-  test('can view product 1', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Runs in parallel with other tests
-  });
-
-  test('can view product 2', async ({ page }) => {
-    // Runs in parallel with other tests
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `fullyParallel: true` enables parallel execution within single test file
-- Workers: 1 in CI (stability), N-1 CPUs locally (speed)
-- Sharding splits tests across multiple CI machines (4x faster with 4 shards)
-- `test.describe.configure({ mode: 'serial' })` for dependent tests
-- `forbidOnly: true` in CI prevents `.only()` from blocking pipeline
-- Matrix strategy in CI runs shards concurrently
-
-### Example 5: Project Configuration
-
-**Context**: When testing across multiple browsers, devices, or configurations, use Playwright projects to run the same tests against different environments (chromium, firefox, webkit, mobile).
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Multiple browser projects
-import { defineConfig, devices } from '@playwright/test';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  projects: [
-    // Desktop browsers
-    {
-      name: 'chromium',
-      use: { ...devices['Desktop Chrome'] },
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'firefox',
-      use: { ...devices['Desktop Firefox'] },
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'webkit',
-      use: { ...devices['Desktop Safari'] },
-    },
-
-    // Mobile browsers
-    {
-      name: 'mobile-chrome',
-      use: { ...devices['Pixel 5'] },
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'mobile-safari',
-      use: { ...devices['iPhone 13'] },
-    },
-
-    // Tablet
-    {
-      name: 'tablet',
-      use: { ...devices['iPad Pro'] },
-    },
-  ],
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts - Authenticated vs. unauthenticated projects
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import path from 'path';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  projects: [
-    // Setup project (runs first, creates auth state)
-    {
-      name: 'setup',
-      testMatch: /global-setup\.ts/,
-    },
-
-    // Authenticated tests (reuse auth state)
-    {
-      name: 'authenticated',
-      dependencies: ['setup'],
-      use: {
-        storageState: path.resolve(__dirname, './playwright/.auth/user.json'),
-      },
-      testMatch: /.*authenticated\.spec\.ts/,
-    },
-
-    // Unauthenticated tests (public pages)
-    {
-      name: 'unauthenticated',
-      testMatch: /.*unauthenticated\.spec\.ts/,
-    },
-  ],
-});
-```
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/global-setup.ts - Setup project for auth
-import { chromium, FullConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-import path from 'path';
-
-async function globalSetup(config: FullConfig) {
-  const browser = await chromium.launch();
-  const page = await browser.newPage();
-
-  // Perform authentication
-  await page.goto('http://localhost:3000/login');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', 'test@example.com');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="login-button"]');
-
-  // Wait for authentication to complete
-  await page.waitForURL('**/dashboard');
-
-  // Save authentication state
-  await page.context().storageState({
-    path: path.resolve(__dirname, '../.auth/user.json'),
-  });
-
-  await browser.close();
-}
-
-export default globalSetup;
-```
-
-```bash
-# Run specific project
-npx playwright test --project=chromium
-npx playwright test --project=mobile-chrome
-npx playwright test --project=authenticated
-
-# Run multiple projects
-npx playwright test --project=chromium --project=firefox
-
-# Run all projects (default)
-npx playwright test
-```
-
-```typescript
-// Usage: Project-specific test
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test('mobile navigation works', async ({ page, isMobile }) => {
-  await page.goto('/');
-
-  if (isMobile) {
-    // Open mobile menu
-    await page.click('[data-testid="hamburger-menu"]');
-  }
-
-  await page.click('[data-testid="products-link"]');
-  await expect(page).toHaveURL(/.*products/);
-});
-```
-
-```yaml
-# .github/workflows/e2e-cross-browser.yml - CI cross-browser testing
-name: E2E Tests (Cross-Browser)
-on: [push, pull_request]
-
-jobs:
-  test:
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    strategy:
-      fail-fast: false
-      matrix:
-        project: [chromium, firefox, webkit, mobile-chrome]
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
-      - run: npm ci
-      - run: npx playwright install --with-deps
-
-      - name: Run tests (${{ matrix.project }})
-        run: npx playwright test --project=${{ matrix.project }}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Projects enable testing across browsers, devices, and configurations
-- `devices` from `@playwright/test` provide preset configurations (Pixel 5, iPhone 13, etc.)
-- `dependencies` ensures setup project runs first (auth, data seeding)
-- `storageState` shares authentication across tests (0 seconds auth per test)
-- `testMatch` filters which tests run in which project
-- CI matrix strategy runs projects in parallel (4x faster with 4 projects)
-- `isMobile` context property for conditional logic in tests
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*framework` (config setup), `*ci` (parallelization, artifact upload)
-- **Related fragments**:
-  - `fixture-architecture.md` - Fixture-based timeout overrides
-  - `ci-burn-in.md` - CI pipeline artifact upload
-  - `test-quality.md` - Timeout standards (no hard waits)
-  - `data-factories.md` - Per-test isolation (no shared global state)
-
-## Configuration Checklist
-
-**Before deploying tests, verify**:
-
-- [ ] Environment config map with fail-fast validation
-- [ ] Standardized timeouts (action 15s, navigation 30s, expect 10s, test 60s)
-- [ ] Artifact storage at `test-results/` and `playwright-report/`
-- [ ] HTML + JUnit reporters configured
-- [ ] `.env.example`, `.nvmrc`, browser versions committed
-- [ ] Parallelization configured (workers, sharding)
-- [ ] Projects defined for cross-browser/device testing (if needed)
-- [ ] CI uploads artifacts on failure with 30-day retention

-# Probability and Impact Scale
-
-## Principle
-
-Risk scoring uses a **probability × impact** matrix (1-9 scale) to prioritize testing efforts. Higher scores (6-9) demand immediate action; lower scores (1-3) require documentation only. This systematic approach ensures testing resources focus on the highest-value risks.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: Without quantifiable risk assessment, teams over-test low-value scenarios while missing critical risks. Gut feeling leads to inconsistent prioritization and missed edge cases.
-
-**The Solution**: Standardize risk evaluation with a 3×3 matrix (probability: 1-3, impact: 1-3). Multiply to derive risk score (1-9). Automate classification (DOCUMENT, MONITOR, MITIGATE, BLOCK) based on thresholds. This approach surfaces hidden risks early and justifies testing decisions to stakeholders.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Consistent risk language across product, engineering, and QA
-- Objective prioritization of test scenarios (not politics)
-- Automatic gate decisions (score=9 → FAIL until resolved)
-- Audit trail for compliance and retrospectives
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Probability-Impact Matrix Implementation (Automated Classification)
-
-**Context**: Implement a reusable risk scoring system with automatic threshold classification
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// src/testing/risk-matrix.ts
-
-/**
- * Probability levels:
- * 1 = Unlikely (standard implementation, low uncertainty)
- * 2 = Possible (edge cases or partial unknowns)
- * 3 = Likely (known issues, new integrations, high ambiguity)
- */
-export type Probability = 1 | 2 | 3;
-
-/**
- * Impact levels:
- * 1 = Minor (cosmetic issues or easy workarounds)
- * 2 = Degraded (partial feature loss or manual workaround)
- * 3 = Critical (blockers, data/security/regulatory exposure)
- */
-export type Impact = 1 | 2 | 3;
-
-/**
- * Risk score (probability × impact): 1-9
- */
-export type RiskScore = 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9;
-
-/**
- * Action categories based on risk score thresholds
- */
-export type RiskAction = 'DOCUMENT' | 'MONITOR' | 'MITIGATE' | 'BLOCK';
-
-export type RiskAssessment = {
-  probability: Probability;
-  impact: Impact;
-  score: RiskScore;
-  action: RiskAction;
-  reasoning: string;
-};
-
-/**
- * Calculate risk score: probability × impact
- */
-export function calculateRiskScore(probability: Probability, impact: Impact): RiskScore {
-  return (probability * impact) as RiskScore;
-}
-
-/**
- * Classify risk action based on score thresholds:
- * - 1-3: DOCUMENT (awareness only)
- * - 4-5: MONITOR (watch closely, plan mitigations)
- * - 6-8: MITIGATE (CONCERNS at gate until mitigated)
- * - 9: BLOCK (automatic FAIL until resolved or waived)
- */
-export function classifyRiskAction(score: RiskScore): RiskAction {
-  if (score >= 9) return 'BLOCK';
-  if (score >= 6) return 'MITIGATE';
-  if (score >= 4) return 'MONITOR';
-  return 'DOCUMENT';
-}
-
-/**
- * Full risk assessment with automatic classification
- */
-export function assessRisk(params: { probability: Probability; impact: Impact; reasoning: string }): RiskAssessment {
-  const { probability, impact, reasoning } = params;
-
-  const score = calculateRiskScore(probability, impact);
-  const action = classifyRiskAction(score);
-
-  return { probability, impact, score, action, reasoning };
-}
-
-/**
- * Generate risk matrix visualization (3x3 grid)
- * Returns markdown table with color-coded scores
- */
-export function generateRiskMatrix(): string {
-  const matrix: string[][] = [];
-  const header = ['Impact \\ Probability', 'Unlikely (1)', 'Possible (2)', 'Likely (3)'];
-  matrix.push(header);
-
-  const impactLabels = ['Critical (3)', 'Degraded (2)', 'Minor (1)'];
-  for (let impact = 3; impact >= 1; impact--) {
-    const row = [impactLabels[3 - impact]];
-    for (let probability = 1; probability <= 3; probability++) {
-      const score = calculateRiskScore(probability as Probability, impact as Impact);
-      const action = classifyRiskAction(score);
-      const emoji = action === 'BLOCK' ? '🔴' : action === 'MITIGATE' ? '🟠' : action === 'MONITOR' ? '🟡' : '🟢';
-      row.push(`${emoji} ${score}`);
-    }
-    matrix.push(row);
-  }
-
-  return matrix.map((row) => `| ${row.join(' | ')} |`).join('\n');
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Type-safe probability/impact (1-3 enforced at compile time)
-- Automatic action classification (DOCUMENT, MONITOR, MITIGATE, BLOCK)
-- Visual matrix generation for documentation
-- Risk score formula: `probability * impact` (max = 9)
-- Threshold-based decision rules (6-8 = MITIGATE, 9 = BLOCK)

-### Example 2: Risk Assessment Workflow (Test Planning Integration)

-  });
-}
-
-/**

- * P3: Low (score 1-3) - document and defer
- */
-function mapRiskToPriority(score: number): 'P0' | 'P1' | 'P2' | 'P3' {
-  if (score === 9) return 'P0';
-  if (score >= 6) return 'P1';
-  if (score >= 4) return 'P2';
-  return 'P3';
-}
-
-/**
- * Example: Payment flow risk assessment
- */
-export const paymentScenarios: Array<Omit<TestScenario, 'priority'>> = [
-  {
-    id: 'PAY-001',

-## Risk Assessment Checklist
-
-Before deploying risk matrix:
-
-- [ ] **Probability scale defined**: 1 (unlikely), 2 (possible), 3 (likely) with clear examples
-- [ ] **Impact scale defined**: 1 (minor), 2 (degraded), 3 (critical) with concrete criteria
-- [ ] **Threshold rules documented**: Score → Action mapping (1-3 = DOCUMENT, 4-5 = MONITOR, 6-8 = MITIGATE, 9 = BLOCK)
-- [ ] **Gate integration**: Risk scores drive gate decisions (PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL/WAIVED)
-- [ ] **Re-assessment process**: Risks re-evaluated as project evolves (requirements change, mitigations applied)
-- [ ] **Audit trail**: Historical tracking for risk changes (who, when, why)
-- [ ] **Mitigation tracking**: Link mitigations to probability reduction (quantify impact)
-- [ ] **Reporting**: Risk matrix visualization, trend reports, gate summaries
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*test-design` (initial risk assessment), `*trace` (gate decision Phase 2), `*nfr-assess` (security/performance risks)
-- **Related fragments**: `risk-governance.md` (risk scoring matrix, gate decision engine), `test-priorities-matrix.md` (P0-P3 mapping), `nfr-criteria.md` (impact assessment for NFRs)
-- **Tools**: TypeScript for type safety, markdown for reports, version control for audit trail

-# Recurse (Polling) Utility
-
-## Principle
-
-Use Cypress-style polling with Playwright's `expect.poll` to wait for asynchronous conditions. Provides configurable timeout, interval, logging, and post-polling callbacks with enhanced error categorization.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Testing async operations (background jobs, eventual consistency, webhook processing) requires polling:
-
-- Vanilla `expect.poll` is verbose
-- No built-in logging for debugging
-- Generic timeout errors
-- No post-poll hooks
-
-The `recurse` utility provides:
-
-- **Clean syntax**: Inspired by cypress-recurse
-- **Enhanced errors**: Timeout vs command failure vs predicate errors
-- **Built-in logging**: Track polling progress
-- **Post-poll callbacks**: Process results after success
-- **Type-safe**: Full TypeScript generic support
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Basic Polling
-
-**Context**: Wait for async operation to complete with custom timeout and interval.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/recurse/fixtures';
-
-test('should wait for job completion', async ({ recurse, apiRequest }) => {
-  // Start job
-  const { body } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'POST',
-    path: '/api/jobs',
-    body: { type: 'export' },
-  });
-
-  // Poll until ready
-  const result = await recurse(
-    () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: `/api/jobs/${body.id}` }),
-    (response) => response.body.status === 'completed',
-    {
-      timeout: 60000, // 60 seconds max
-      interval: 2000, // Check every 2 seconds
-      log: 'Waiting for export job to complete',
-    },
-  );
-
-  expect(result.body.downloadUrl).toBeDefined();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- First arg: command function (what to execute)
-- Second arg: predicate function (when to stop)
-- Options: timeout, interval, log message
-- Returns the value when predicate returns true
-
-### Example 2: Polling with Assertions
-
-**Context**: Use assertions directly in predicate for more expressive tests.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('should poll with assertions', async ({ recurse, apiRequest }) => {
-  await apiRequest({
-    method: 'POST',
-    path: '/api/events',
-    body: { type: 'user-created', userId: '123' },
-  });
-
-  // Poll with assertions in predicate
-  await recurse(
-    async () => {
-      const { body } = await apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/events/123' });
-      return body;
-    },
-    (event) => {
-      // Use assertions instead of boolean returns
-      expect(event.processed).toBe(true);
-      expect(event.timestamp).toBeDefined();
-      // If assertions pass, predicate succeeds
-    },
-    { timeout: 30000 },
-  );
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Predicate can use `expect()` assertions
-- If assertions throw, polling continues
-- If assertions pass, polling succeeds
-- More expressive than boolean returns
-
-### Example 3: Custom Error Messages
-
-**Context**: Provide context-specific error messages for timeout failures.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('custom error on timeout', async ({ recurse, apiRequest }) => {
-  try {
-    await recurse(
-      () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/status' }),
-      (res) => res.body.ready === true,
-      {
-        timeout: 10000,
-        error: 'System failed to become ready within 10 seconds - check background workers',
-      },
-    );
-  } catch (error) {
-    // Error message includes custom context
-    expect(error.message).toContain('check background workers');
-    throw error;
-  }
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `error` option provides custom message
-- Replaces default "Timed out after X ms"
-- Include debugging hints in error message
-- Helps diagnose failures faster
-
-### Example 4: Post-Polling Callback
-
-**Context**: Process or log results after successful polling.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-test('post-poll processing', async ({ recurse, apiRequest }) => {
-  const finalResult = await recurse(
-    () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/api/batch-job/123' }),
-    (res) => res.body.status === 'completed',
-    {
-      timeout: 60000,
-      post: (result) => {
-        // Runs after successful polling
-        console.log(`Job completed in ${result.body.duration}ms`);
-        console.log(`Processed ${result.body.itemsProcessed} items`);
-        return result.body;
-      },
-    },
-  );
-
-  expect(finalResult.itemsProcessed).toBeGreaterThan(0);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `post` callback runs after predicate succeeds
-- Receives the final result
-- Can transform or log results
-- Return value becomes final `recurse` result
-
-### Example 5: Integration with API Request (Common Pattern)
-
-**Context**: Most common use case - polling API endpoints for state changes.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-import { test } from '@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures';
-
-test('end-to-end polling', async ({ apiRequest, recurse }) => {
-  // Trigger async operation
-  const { body: createResp } = await apiRequest({
-    method: 'POST',
-    path: '/api/data-import',
-    body: { source: 's3://bucket/data.csv' },
-  });
-
-  // Poll until import completes
-  const importResult = await recurse(
-    () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: `/api/data-import/${createResp.importId}` }),
-    (response) => {
-      const { status, rowsImported } = response.body;
-      return status === 'completed' && rowsImported > 0;
-    },
-    {
-      timeout: 120000, // 2 minutes for large imports
-      interval: 5000, // Check every 5 seconds
-      log: `Polling import ${createResp.importId}`,
-    },
-  );
-
-  expect(importResult.body.rowsImported).toBeGreaterThan(1000);
-  expect(importResult.body.errors).toHaveLength(0);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Combine `apiRequest` + `recurse` for API polling
-- Both from `@seontechnologies/playwright-utils/fixtures`
-- Complex predicates with multiple conditions
-- Logging shows polling progress in test reports
-
-## Enhanced Error Types
-
-The utility categorizes errors for easier debugging:
-
-```typescript
-// TimeoutError - Predicate never returned true
-Error: Polling timed out after 30000ms: Job never completed
-
-// CommandError - Command function threw
-Error: Command failed: Request failed with status 500
-
-// PredicateError - Predicate function threw (not from assertions)
-Error: Predicate failed: Cannot read property 'status' of undefined
-```

-## When to Use
-
-**Use recurse for:**
-
-- ✅ Background job completion
-- ✅ Webhook/event processing
-- ✅ Database eventual consistency
-- ✅ Cache propagation
-- ✅ State machine transitions
-
-**Stick with vanilla expect.poll for:**
-
-- Simple UI element visibility (use `expect(locator).toBeVisible()`)
-- Single-property checks
-- Cases where logging isn't needed

-```typescript
-await page.click('#export');
-await page.waitForTimeout(5000); // Arbitrary wait
-expect(await page.textContent('#status')).toBe('Ready');
-```
-
-**✅ Poll for actual condition:**
-
-```typescript
-await page.click('#export');
-await recurse(
-  () => page.textContent('#status'),
-  (status) => status === 'Ready',
-  { timeout: 10000 },
-);
-```
-
-**❌ Polling too frequently:**
-
-```typescript
-await recurse(
-  () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/status' }),
-  (res) => res.body.ready,
-  { interval: 100 }, // Hammers API every 100ms!
-);
-```
-
-**✅ Reasonable interval for API calls:**
-
-```typescript
-await recurse(
-  () => apiRequest({ method: 'GET', path: '/status' }),
-  (res) => res.body.ready,
-  { interval: 2000 }, // Check every 2 seconds (reasonable)
-);

-# Risk Governance and Gatekeeping
-
-## Principle
-
-Risk governance transforms subjective "should we ship?" debates into objective, data-driven decisions. By scoring risk (probability × impact), classifying by category (TECH, SEC, PERF, etc.), and tracking mitigation ownership, teams create transparent quality gates that balance speed with safety.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: Without formal risk governance, releases become political—loud voices win, quiet risks hide, and teams discover critical issues in production. "We thought it was fine" isn't a release strategy.
-
-**The Solution**: Risk scoring (1-3 scale for probability and impact, total 1-9) creates shared language. Scores ≥6 demand documented mitigation. Scores = 9 mandate gate failure. Every acceptance criterion maps to a test, and gaps require explicit waivers with owners and expiry dates.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Removes ambiguity from release decisions (objective scores vs subjective opinions)
-- Creates audit trail for compliance (FDA, SOC2, ISO require documented risk management)
-- Identifies true blockers early (prevents last-minute production fires)
-- Distributes responsibility (owners, mitigation plans, deadlines for every risk >4)
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Risk Scoring Matrix with Automated Classification (TypeScript)
-
-**Context**: Calculate risk scores automatically from test results and categorize by risk type
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// risk-scoring.ts - Risk classification and scoring system
-export const RISK_CATEGORIES = {
-  TECH: 'TECH', // Technical debt, architecture fragility
-  SEC: 'SEC', // Security vulnerabilities
-  PERF: 'PERF', // Performance degradation
-  DATA: 'DATA', // Data integrity, corruption
-  BUS: 'BUS', // Business logic errors
-  OPS: 'OPS', // Operational issues (deployment, monitoring)
-} as const;
-
-export type RiskCategory = keyof typeof RISK_CATEGORIES;
-
-export type RiskScore = {
-  id: string;
-  category: RiskCategory;
-  title: string;
-  description: string;
-  probability: 1 | 2 | 3; // 1=Low, 2=Medium, 3=High
-  impact: 1 | 2 | 3; // 1=Low, 2=Medium, 3=High
-  score: number; // probability × impact (1-9)
-  owner: string;
-  mitigationPlan?: string;
-  deadline?: Date;
-  status: 'OPEN' | 'MITIGATED' | 'WAIVED' | 'ACCEPTED';
-  waiverReason?: string;
-  waiverApprover?: string;
-  waiverExpiry?: Date;
-};
-
-// Risk scoring rules
-export function calculateRiskScore(probability: 1 | 2 | 3, impact: 1 | 2 | 3): number {
-  return probability * impact;
-}
-
-export function requiresMitigation(score: number): boolean {
-  return score >= 6; // Scores 6-9 demand action
-}
-
-export function isCriticalBlocker(score: number): boolean {
-  return score === 9; // Probability=3 AND Impact=3 → FAIL gate
-}
-
-export function classifyRiskLevel(score: number): 'LOW' | 'MEDIUM' | 'HIGH' | 'CRITICAL' {
-  if (score === 9) return 'CRITICAL';
-  if (score >= 6) return 'HIGH';
-  if (score >= 4) return 'MEDIUM';
-  return 'LOW';
-}
-
-// Example: Risk assessment from test failures
-export function assessTestFailureRisk(failure: {
-  test: string;
-  category: RiskCategory;
-  affectedUsers: number;
-  revenueImpact: number;
-  securityVulnerability: boolean;
-}): RiskScore {
-  // Probability based on test failure frequency (simplified)
-  const probability: 1 | 2 | 3 = 3; // Test failed = High probability
-
-  // Impact based on business context
-  let impact: 1 | 2 | 3 = 1;
-  if (failure.securityVulnerability) impact = 3;
-  else if (failure.revenueImpact > 10000) impact = 3;
-  else if (failure.affectedUsers > 1000) impact = 2;
-  else impact = 1;
-
-  const score = calculateRiskScore(probability, impact);
-
-  return {
-    id: `risk-${Date.now()}`,
-    category: failure.category,
-    title: `Test failure: ${failure.test}`,
-    description: `Affects ${failure.affectedUsers} users, $${failure.revenueImpact} revenue`,
-    probability,
-    impact,
-    score,
-    owner: 'unassigned',
-    status: score === 9 ? 'OPEN' : 'OPEN',
-  };
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Objective scoring**: Probability (1-3) × Impact (1-3) = Score (1-9)
-- **Clear thresholds**: Score ≥6 requires mitigation, score = 9 blocks release
-- **Business context**: Revenue, users, security drive impact calculation
-- **Status tracking**: OPEN → MITIGATED → WAIVED → ACCEPTED lifecycle

-### Example 2: Gate Decision Engine with Traceability Validation
-
-**Context**: Automated gate decision based on risk scores and test coverage
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// gate-decision-engine.ts
-export type GateDecision = 'PASS' | 'CONCERNS' | 'FAIL' | 'WAIVED';
-
-export type CoverageGap = {
-  acceptanceCriteria: string;
-  testMissing: string;
-  reason: string;
-};
-
-export type GateResult = {
-  decision: GateDecision;
-  timestamp: Date;
-  criticalRisks: RiskScore[];
-  highRisks: RiskScore[];
-  coverageGaps: CoverageGap[];
-  summary: string;
-  recommendations: string[];
-};
-
-export function evaluateGate(params: { risks: RiskScore[]; coverageGaps: CoverageGap[]; waiverApprover?: string }): GateResult {
-  const { risks, coverageGaps, waiverApprover } = params;
-
-  // Categorize risks
-  const criticalRisks = risks.filter((r) => r.score === 9 && r.status === 'OPEN');
-  const highRisks = risks.filter((r) => r.score >= 6 && r.score < 9 && r.status === 'OPEN');
-  const unresolvedGaps = coverageGaps.filter((g) => !g.reason);
-
-  // Decision logic
-  let decision: GateDecision;
-
-  // FAIL: Critical blockers (score=9) or missing coverage
-  if (criticalRisks.length > 0 || unresolvedGaps.length > 0) {
-    decision = 'FAIL';
-  }
-  // WAIVED: All risks waived by authorized approver
-  else if (risks.every((r) => r.status === 'WAIVED') && waiverApprover) {
-    decision = 'WAIVED';
-  }
-  // CONCERNS: High risks (score 6-8) with mitigation plans
-  else if (highRisks.length > 0 && highRisks.every((r) => r.mitigationPlan && r.owner !== 'unassigned')) {
-    decision = 'CONCERNS';
-  }
-  // PASS: No critical issues, all risks mitigated or low
-  else {
-    decision = 'PASS';
-  }
-
-  // Generate recommendations
-  const recommendations: string[] = [];
-  if (criticalRisks.length > 0) {
-    recommendations.push(`🚨 ${criticalRisks.length} CRITICAL risk(s) must be mitigated before release`);
-  }
-  if (unresolvedGaps.length > 0) {
-    recommendations.push(`📋 ${unresolvedGaps.length} acceptance criteria lack test coverage`);
-  }
-  if (highRisks.some((r) => !r.mitigationPlan)) {
-    recommendations.push(`⚠️  High risks without mitigation plans: assign owners and deadlines`);
-  }
-  if (decision === 'PASS') {
-    recommendations.push(`✅ All risks mitigated or acceptable. Ready for release.`);
-  }
-
-  return {
-    decision,
-    timestamp: new Date(),
-    criticalRisks,
-    highRisks,
-    coverageGaps: unresolvedGaps,
-    summary: generateSummary(decision, risks, unresolvedGaps),
-    recommendations,
-  };
-}
-
-function generateSummary(decision: GateDecision, risks: RiskScore[], gaps: CoverageGap[]): string {
-  const total = risks.length;
-  const critical = risks.filter((r) => r.score === 9).length;
-  const high = risks.filter((r) => r.score >= 6 && r.score < 9).length;
-
-  return `Gate Decision: ${decision}. Total Risks: ${total} (${critical} critical, ${high} high). Coverage Gaps: ${gaps.length}.`;
-}
-```
-
-**Usage Example**:
-
-```typescript
-// Example: Running gate check before deployment
-import { assessTestFailureRisk, evaluateGate } from './gate-decision-engine';
-
-// Collect risks from test results
-const risks: RiskScore[] = [
-  assessTestFailureRisk({
-    test: 'Payment processing with expired card',
-    category: 'BUS',
-    affectedUsers: 5000,
-    revenueImpact: 50000,
-    securityVulnerability: false,
-  }),
-  assessTestFailureRisk({
-    test: 'SQL injection in search endpoint',
-    category: 'SEC',
-    affectedUsers: 10000,
-    revenueImpact: 0,
-    securityVulnerability: true,
-  }),
-];
-
-// Identify coverage gaps
-const coverageGaps: CoverageGap[] = [
-  {
-    acceptanceCriteria: 'User can reset password via email',
-    testMissing: 'e2e/auth/password-reset.spec.ts',
-    reason: '', // Empty = unresolved
-  },
-];
-
-// Evaluate gate
-const gateResult = evaluateGate({ risks, coverageGaps });
-
-console.log(gateResult.decision); // 'FAIL'
-console.log(gateResult.summary);
-// "Gate Decision: FAIL. Total Risks: 2 (1 critical, 1 high). Coverage Gaps: 1."
-
-console.log(gateResult.recommendations);
-// [
-//   "🚨 1 CRITICAL risk(s) must be mitigated before release",
-//   "📋 1 acceptance criteria lack test coverage"
-// ]
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Automated decision**: No human interpretation required
-- **Clear criteria**: FAIL = critical risks or gaps, CONCERNS = high risks with plans, PASS = low risks
-- **Actionable output**: Recommendations drive next steps
-- **Audit trail**: Timestamp, decision, and context for compliance

-}
-```
-
-**Usage Example**:

-  category: 'SEC',
-  title: 'SQL injection vulnerability in user search',
-  description: 'Unsanitized input allows arbitrary SQL execution',
-  probability: 3,
-  impact: 3,
-  score: 9,
-  owner: 'security-team',
-  status: 'OPEN',
-});
-
-// Add mitigation actions
-tracker.addMitigationAction({
-  riskId: 'risk-001',
-  action: 'Add parameterized queries to user-search endpoint',
-  owner: 'alice@example.com',
-  deadline: new Date('2025-10-20'),
-  status: 'IN_PROGRESS',
-});
-
-tracker.addMitigationAction({
-  riskId: 'risk-001',
-  action: 'Add WAF rule to block SQL injection patterns',
-  owner: 'bob@example.com',
-  deadline: new Date('2025-10-22'),
-  status: 'PENDING',
-});
-
-// Complete first action
-tracker.completeMitigation('risk-001', 0);
-
-// Generate report
-console.log(tracker.generateReport());
-// Markdown report with critical risks, owners, deadlines
-
-// View history
-console.log(tracker.getHistory('risk-001'));
-// [
-//   { event: 'Risk registered: SQL injection...', timestamp: ... },
-//   { event: 'Mitigation action added: Add parameterized queries...', timestamp: ... },
-//   { event: 'Mitigation completed: Add parameterized queries...', timestamp: ... }
-// ]
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Ownership enforcement**: Every risk >4 requires owner assignment
-- **Deadline tracking**: Mitigation actions have explicit deadlines
-- **Audit trail**: Complete history of risk lifecycle (registered → mitigated)
-- **Automated reports**: Markdown output for Confluence/GitHub wikis

-    });
-
-  return report;
-}
-```
-
-**Usage Example**:
-
-```typescript
-// Define acceptance criteria

-  { id: 'AC-004', story: 'US-125', criterion: 'User can update profile', priority: 'P2' }, // NO TEST
-];
-
-// Extract tests
-const tests: TestCase[] = extractCriteriaFromTests(['tests/e2e/auth/login.spec.ts', 'tests/e2e/auth/password-reset.spec.ts']);
-
-// Build matrix
-const matrix = buildCoverageMatrix(criteria, tests);
-
-// Validate
-const { gaps, passRate } = validateCoverage(matrix);
-console.log(`Coverage: ${passRate.toFixed(1)}%`); // "Coverage: 75.0%"

-
-// Generate report
-const report = generateTraceabilityReport(matrix);
-console.log(report);
-// Markdown table showing coverage gaps
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Bidirectional traceability**: Criteria → Tests and Tests → Criteria
-- **Gap detection**: Automatically identifies missing coverage
-- **Priority awareness**: P0 gaps are critical blockers
-- **Waiver support**: Allow explicit waivers for low-priority gaps
-

-## Risk Governance Checklist
-
-Before deploying to production, ensure:
-
-- [ ] **Risk scoring complete**: All identified risks scored (Probability × Impact)
-- [ ] **Ownership assigned**: Every risk >4 has owner, mitigation plan, deadline
-- [ ] **Coverage validated**: Every acceptance criterion maps to at least one test
-- [ ] **Gate decision documented**: PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL/WAIVED with rationale
-- [ ] **Waivers approved**: All waivers have approver, reason, expiry date
-- [ ] **Audit trail captured**: Risk history log available for compliance review
-- [ ] **Traceability matrix**: Requirements-to-tests mapping up to date
-- [ ] **Critical risks resolved**: No score=9 risks in OPEN status
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*trace` (Phase 2: gate decision), `*nfr-assess` (risk scoring), `*test-design` (risk identification)
-- **Related fragments**: `probability-impact.md` (scoring definitions), `test-priorities-matrix.md` (P0-P3 classification), `nfr-criteria.md` (non-functional risks)
-- **Tools**: Risk tracking dashboards (Jira, Linear), gate automation (CI/CD), traceability reports (Markdown, Confluence)

-# Selective and Targeted Test Execution
-
-## Principle
-
-Run only the tests you need, when you need them. Use tags/grep to slice suites by risk priority (not directory structure), filter by spec patterns or git diff to focus on impacted areas, and combine priority metadata (P0-P3) with change detection to optimize pre-commit vs. CI execution. Document the selection strategy clearly so teams understand when full regression is mandatory.
-
-## Rationale

-Running the entire test suite on every commit wastes time and resources. Smart test selection provides fast feedback (smoke tests in minutes, full regression in hours) while maintaining confidence. The "32+ ways of selective testing" philosophy balances speed with coverage: quick loops for developers, comprehensive validation before deployment. Poorly documented selection leads to confusion about when tests run and why.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Tag-Based Execution with Priority Levels
-
-**Context**: Organize tests by risk priority and execution stage using grep/tag patterns.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-/**
- * Tag-based test organization
- * - @smoke: Critical path tests (run on every commit, < 5 min)
- * - @regression: Full test suite (run pre-merge, < 30 min)
- * - @p0: Critical business functions (payment, auth, data integrity)
- * - @p1: Core features (primary user journeys)
- * - @p2: Secondary features (supporting functionality)
- * - @p3: Nice-to-have (cosmetic, non-critical)
- */
-
-test.describe('Checkout Flow', () => {
-  // P0 + Smoke: Must run on every commit
-  test('@smoke @p0 should complete purchase with valid payment', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4242424242424242');
-    await page.getByTestId('submit-payment').click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('order-confirmation')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  // P0 but not smoke: Run pre-merge
-  test('@regression @p0 should handle payment decline gracefully', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4000000000000002'); // Decline card
-    await page.getByTestId('submit-payment').click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('payment-error')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('payment-error')).toContainText('declined');
-  });
-
-  // P1 + Smoke: Important but not critical
-  test('@smoke @p1 should apply discount code', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('promo-code').fill('SAVE10');
-    await page.getByTestId('apply-promo').click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('discount-applied')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  // P2: Run in full regression only
-  test('@regression @p2 should remember saved payment methods', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('saved-cards')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  // P3: Low priority, run nightly or weekly
-  test('@nightly @p3 should display checkout page analytics', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    const analyticsEvents = await page.evaluate(() => (window as any).__ANALYTICS__);
-    expect(analyticsEvents).toBeDefined();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**package.json scripts**:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "test": "playwright test",
-    "test:smoke": "playwright test --grep '@smoke'",
-    "test:p0": "playwright test --grep '@p0'",
-    "test:p0-p1": "playwright test --grep '@p0|@p1'",
-    "test:regression": "playwright test --grep '@regression'",
-    "test:nightly": "playwright test --grep '@nightly'",
-    "test:not-slow": "playwright test --grep-invert '@slow'",
-    "test:critical-smoke": "playwright test --grep '@smoke.*@p0'"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Cypress equivalent**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/e2e/checkout.cy.ts
-describe('Checkout Flow', { tags: ['@checkout'] }, () => {
-  it('should complete purchase', { tags: ['@smoke', '@p0'] }, () => {
-    cy.visit('/checkout');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="card-number"]').type('4242424242424242');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="submit-payment"]').click();
-    cy.get('[data-cy="order-confirmation"]').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should handle decline', { tags: ['@regression', '@p0'] }, () => {
-    cy.visit('/checkout');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="card-number"]').type('4000000000000002');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="submit-payment"]').click();
-    cy.get('[data-cy="payment-error"]').should('be.visible');
-  });
-});
-
-// cypress.config.ts
-export default defineConfig({
-  e2e: {
-    env: {
-      grepTags: process.env.GREP_TAGS || '',
-      grepFilterSpecs: true,
-    },
-    setupNodeEvents(on, config) {
-      require('@cypress/grep/src/plugin')(config);
-      return config;
-    },
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Usage**:
-
-```bash
-# Playwright
-npm run test:smoke                    # Run all @smoke tests
-npm run test:p0                       # Run all P0 tests
-npm run test -- --grep "@smoke.*@p0"  # Run tests with BOTH tags
-
-# Cypress (with @cypress/grep plugin)
-npx cypress run --env grepTags="@smoke"
-npx cypress run --env grepTags="@p0+@smoke"  # AND logic
-npx cypress run --env grepTags="@p0 @p1"     # OR logic
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Multiple tags per test**: Combine priority (@p0) with stage (@smoke)
-- **AND/OR logic**: Grep supports complex filtering
-- **Clear naming**: Tags document test importance
-- **Fast feedback**: @smoke runs < 5 min, full suite < 30 min
-- **CI integration**: Different jobs run different tag combinations

-
-### Example 2: Spec Filter Pattern (File-Based Selection)
-
-**Context**: Run tests by file path pattern or directory for targeted execution.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```bash
-#!/bin/bash
-# scripts/selective-spec-runner.sh
-# Run tests based on spec file patterns
-
-set -e
-
-PATTERN=${1:-"**/*.spec.ts"}
-TEST_ENV=${TEST_ENV:-local}
-
-echo "🎯 Selective Spec Runner"
-echo "━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━"
-echo "Pattern: $PATTERN"
-echo "Environment: $TEST_ENV"
-echo ""
-
-# Pattern examples and their use cases
-case "$PATTERN" in
-  "**/checkout*")
-    echo "📦 Running checkout-related tests"
-    npx playwright test --grep-files="**/checkout*"
-    ;;
-  "**/auth*"|"**/login*"|"**/signup*")
-    echo "🔐 Running authentication tests"
-    npx playwright test --grep-files="**/auth*|**/login*|**/signup*"
-    ;;
-  "tests/e2e/**")
-    echo "🌐 Running all E2E tests"
-    npx playwright test tests/e2e/
-    ;;
-  "tests/integration/**")
-    echo "🔌 Running all integration tests"
-    npx playwright test tests/integration/
-    ;;
-  "tests/component/**")
-    echo "🧩 Running all component tests"
-    npx playwright test tests/component/
-    ;;
-  *)
-    echo "🔍 Running tests matching pattern: $PATTERN"
-    npx playwright test "$PATTERN"
-    ;;
-esac
-```
-
-**Playwright config for file filtering**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts
-import { defineConfig, devices } from '@playwright/test';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  // ... other config
-
-  // Project-based organization
-  projects: [
-    {
-      name: 'smoke',
-      testMatch: /.*smoke.*\.spec\.ts/,
-      retries: 0,
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'e2e',
-      testMatch: /tests\/e2e\/.*\.spec\.ts/,
-      retries: 2,
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'integration',
-      testMatch: /tests\/integration\/.*\.spec\.ts/,
-      retries: 1,
-    },
-    {
-      name: 'component',
-      testMatch: /tests\/component\/.*\.spec\.ts/,
-      use: { ...devices['Desktop Chrome'] },
-    },
-  ],
-});
-```
-
-**Advanced pattern matching**:
-
-```typescript
-// scripts/run-by-component.ts
-/**
- * Run tests related to specific component(s)
- * Usage: npm run test:component UserProfile,Settings
- */
-
-import { execSync } from 'child_process';
-
-const components = process.argv[2]?.split(',') || [];
-
-if (components.length === 0) {
-  console.error('❌ No components specified');
-  console.log('Usage: npm run test:component UserProfile,Settings');
-  process.exit(1);
-}
-
-// Convert component names to glob patterns
-const patterns = components.map((comp) => `**/*${comp}*.spec.ts`).join(' ');
-
-console.log(`🧩 Running tests for components: ${components.join(', ')}`);
-console.log(`Patterns: ${patterns}`);
-
-try {
-  execSync(`npx playwright test ${patterns}`, {
-    stdio: 'inherit',
-    env: { ...process.env, CI: 'false' },
-  });
-} catch (error) {
-  process.exit(1);
-}
-```
-
-**package.json scripts**:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "test:checkout": "playwright test **/checkout*.spec.ts",
-    "test:auth": "playwright test **/auth*.spec.ts **/login*.spec.ts",
-    "test:e2e": "playwright test tests/e2e/",
-    "test:integration": "playwright test tests/integration/",
-    "test:component": "ts-node scripts/run-by-component.ts",
-    "test:project": "playwright test --project",
-    "test:smoke-project": "playwright test --project smoke"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Glob patterns**: Wildcards match file paths flexibly
-- **Project isolation**: Separate projects have different configs
-- **Component targeting**: Run tests for specific features
-- **Directory-based**: Organize tests by type (e2e, integration, component)
-- **CI optimization**: Run subsets in parallel CI jobs

-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **Intelligent mapping**: Code changes → related tests
-- **Critical file detection**: Config changes = full suite
-- **Component mapping**: UI changes → component + E2E tests
-- **Fast feedback**: Run only what's needed (< 2 min typical)
-- **Safety net**: Unrecognized changes run smoke tests

-# Test Selection Strategy
-
-## Test Promotion Stages
-
-| Stage      | Tests Run           | Time Budget | Blocks Deploy | Failure Action |
-| ---------- | ------------------- | ----------- | ------------- | -------------- |
-| Pre-Commit | Smoke (@smoke)      | 2 min       | ✅ Yes        | Block commit   |
-| CI PR      | Changed + P0-P1     | 10 min      | ✅ Yes        | Block merge    |
-| CI Merge   | Full regression     | 30 min      | ✅ Yes        | Block deploy   |
-| Staging    | E2E smoke           | 15 min      | ✅ Yes        | Rollback       |
-| Production | Critical smoke only | 5 min       | ❌ No         | Alert team     |
-
-## When Full Regression Runs
-
-Full regression suite (`npm run test:regression`) runs in these scenarios:
-
-- ✅ Before merging to `main` (CI Merge stage)
-- ✅ Nightly builds (scheduled workflow)
-- ✅ Manual trigger (workflow_dispatch)
-- ✅ Release candidate testing
-
-Full regression does NOT run on:
-
-- ❌ Every PR commit (too slow)
-- ❌ Pre-commit hooks (too slow)
-- ❌ Production deployments (deploy-blocking)
-
-## Override Scenarios
-
-Skip tests (emergency only):
-
-```bash
-git commit --no-verify  # Skip pre-commit hook
-gh pr merge --admin     # Force merge (requires admin)
-```
-````
-
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-- **Progressive validation**: More tests at each stage
-- **Time budgets**: Clear expectations per stage
-- **Blocking vs. alerting**: Production tests don't block deploy
-- **Documentation**: Team knows when full regression runs
-- **Emergency overrides**: Documented but discouraged

-- [ ] **Tag strategy defined**: @smoke, @p0-p3, @regression documented
-- [ ] **Time budgets set**: Each stage has clear timeout (smoke < 5 min, full < 30 min)
-- [ ] **Changed file mapping**: Code changes → test selection logic implemented
-- [ ] **Promotion rules documented**: README explains when full regression runs
-- [ ] **CI integration**: GitHub Actions uses selective strategy
-- [ ] **Local parity**: Developers can run same selections locally
-- [ ] **Emergency overrides**: Skip mechanisms documented (--no-verify, admin merge)
-- [ ] **Metrics tracked**: Monitor test execution time and selection accuracy
-

-# Selector Resilience
-
-## Principle
-
-Robust selectors follow a strict hierarchy: **data-testid > ARIA roles > text content > CSS/IDs** (last resort). Selectors must be resilient to UI changes (styling, layout, content updates) and remain human-readable for maintenance.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: Brittle selectors (CSS classes, nth-child, complex XPath) break when UI styling changes, elements are reordered, or design updates occur. This causes test maintenance burden and false negatives.
-
-**The Solution**: Prioritize semantic selectors that reflect user intent (ARIA roles, accessible names, test IDs). Use dynamic filtering for lists instead of nth() indexes. Validate selectors during code review and refactor proactively.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Prevents false test failures (UI refactoring doesn't break tests)
-- Improves accessibility (ARIA roles benefit both tests and screen readers)
-- Enhances readability (semantic selectors document user intent)
-- Reduces maintenance burden (robust selectors survive design changes)
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Selector Hierarchy (Priority Order with Examples)
-
-**Context**: Choose the most resilient selector for each element type
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/selectors/hierarchy-examples.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Selector Hierarchy Best Practices', () => {
-  test('Level 1: data-testid (BEST - most resilient)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/login');
-
-    // ✅ Best: Dedicated test attribute (survives all UI changes)
-    await page.getByTestId('email-input').fill('user@example.com');
-    await page.getByTestId('password-input').fill('password123');
-    await page.getByTestId('login-button').click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('welcome-message')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Why it's best:
-    // - Survives CSS refactoring (class name changes)
-    // - Survives layout changes (element reordering)
-    // - Survives content changes (button text updates)
-    // - Explicit test contract (developer knows it's for testing)
-  });
-
-  test('Level 2: ARIA roles and accessible names (GOOD - future-proof)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/login');
-
-    // ✅ Good: Semantic HTML roles (benefits accessibility + tests)
-    await page.getByRole('textbox', { name: 'Email' }).fill('user@example.com');
-    await page.getByRole('textbox', { name: 'Password' }).fill('password123');
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign In' }).click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Welcome' })).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Why it's good:
-    // - Survives CSS refactoring
-    // - Survives layout changes
-    // - Enforces accessibility (screen reader compatible)
-    // - Self-documenting (role + name = clear intent)
-  });
-
-  test('Level 3: Text content (ACCEPTABLE - user-centric)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // ✅ Acceptable: Text content (matches user perception)
-    await page.getByText('Create New Order').click();
-    await expect(page.getByText('Order Details')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Why it's acceptable:
-    // - User-centric (what user sees)
-    // - Survives CSS/layout changes
-    // - Breaks when copy changes (forces test update with content)
-
-    // ⚠️ Use with caution for dynamic/localized content:
-    // - Avoid for content with variables: "User 123" (use regex instead)
-    // - Avoid for i18n content (use data-testid or ARIA)
-  });
-
-  test('Level 4: CSS classes/IDs (LAST RESORT - brittle)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/login');
-
-    // ❌ Last resort: CSS class (breaks with styling updates)
-    // await page.locator('.btn-primary').click()
-
-    // ❌ Last resort: ID (breaks if ID changes)
-    // await page.locator('#login-form').fill(...)
-
-    // ✅ Better: Use data-testid or ARIA instead
-    await page.getByTestId('login-button').click();
-
-    // Why CSS/ID is last resort:
-    // - Breaks with CSS refactoring (class name changes)
-    // - Breaks with HTML restructuring (ID changes)
-    // - Not semantic (unclear what element does)
-    // - Tight coupling between tests and styling
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Hierarchy: data-testid (best) > ARIA (good) > text (acceptable) > CSS/ID (last resort)
-- data-testid survives ALL UI changes (explicit test contract)
-- ARIA roles enforce accessibility (screen reader compatible)
-- Text content is user-centric (but breaks with copy changes)
-- CSS/ID are brittle (break with styling refactoring)

-
-### Example 2: Dynamic Selector Patterns (Lists, Filters, Regex)
-
-**Context**: Handle dynamic content, lists, and variable data with resilient selectors
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/selectors/dynamic-selectors.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Dynamic Selector Patterns', () => {
-  test('regex for variable content (user IDs, timestamps)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/users');
-
-    // ✅ Good: Regex pattern for dynamic user IDs
-    await expect(page.getByText(/User \d+/)).toBeVisible();
-
-    // ✅ Good: Regex for timestamps
-    await expect(page.getByText(/Last login: \d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}/)).toBeVisible();
-
-    // ✅ Good: Regex for dynamic counts
-    await expect(page.getByText(/\d+ items in cart/)).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('partial text matching (case-insensitive, substring)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // ✅ Good: Partial match (survives minor text changes)
-    await page.getByText('Product', { exact: false }).first().click();
-
-    // ✅ Good: Case-insensitive (survives capitalization changes)
-    await expect(page.getByText(/sign in/i)).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('filter locators for lists (avoid brittle nth)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Index-based (breaks when order changes)
-    // await page.locator('.product-card').nth(2).click()
-
-    // ✅ Good: Filter by content (resilient to reordering)
-    await page.locator('[data-testid="product-card"]').filter({ hasText: 'Premium Plan' }).click();
-
-    // ✅ Good: Filter by attribute
-    await page
-      .locator('[data-testid="product-card"]')
-      .filter({ has: page.locator('[data-status="active"]') })
-      .first()
-      .click();
-  });
-
-  test('nth() only when absolutely necessary', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // ⚠️ Acceptable: nth(0) for first item (common pattern)
-    const firstNotification = page.getByTestId('notification').nth(0);
-    await expect(firstNotification).toContainText('Welcome');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: nth(5) for arbitrary index (fragile)
-    // await page.getByTestId('notification').nth(5).click()
-
-    // ✅ Better: Use filter() with specific criteria
-    await page.getByTestId('notification').filter({ hasText: 'Critical Alert' }).click();
-  });
-
-  test('combine multiple locators for specificity', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-    // ✅ Good: Narrow scope with combined locators
-    const shippingSection = page.getByTestId('shipping-section');
-    await shippingSection.getByLabel('Address Line 1').fill('123 Main St');
-    await shippingSection.getByLabel('City').fill('New York');
-
-    // Scoping prevents ambiguity (multiple "City" fields on page)
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Regex patterns handle variable content (IDs, timestamps, counts)
-- Partial matching survives minor text changes (`exact: false`)
-- `filter()` is more resilient than `nth()` (content-based vs index-based)
-- `nth(0)` acceptable for "first item", avoid arbitrary indexes
-- Combine locators to narrow scope (prevent ambiguity)

-
-### Example 3: Selector Anti-Patterns (What NOT to Do)
-
-**Context**: Common selector mistakes that cause brittle tests
-
-**Problem Examples**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/selectors/anti-patterns.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Selector Anti-Patterns to Avoid', () => {
-  test('❌ Anti-Pattern 1: CSS classes (brittle)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/login');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: CSS class (breaks with design system updates)
-    // await page.locator('.btn-primary').click()
-    // await page.locator('.form-input-lg').fill('test@example.com')
-
-    // ✅ Good: Use data-testid or ARIA role
-    await page.getByTestId('login-button').click();
-    await page.getByRole('textbox', { name: 'Email' }).fill('test@example.com');
-  });
-
-  test('❌ Anti-Pattern 2: Index-based nth() (fragile)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Index-based (breaks when product order changes)
-    // await page.locator('.product-card').nth(3).click()
-
-    // ✅ Good: Content-based filter
-    await page.locator('[data-testid="product-card"]').filter({ hasText: 'Laptop' }).click();
-  });
-
-  test('❌ Anti-Pattern 3: Complex XPath (hard to maintain)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Complex XPath (unreadable, breaks with structure changes)
-    // await page.locator('xpath=//div[@class="container"]//section[2]//button[contains(@class, "primary")]').click()
-
-    // ✅ Good: Semantic selector
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Create Order' }).click();
-  });
-
-  test('❌ Anti-Pattern 4: ID selectors (coupled to implementation)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/settings');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: HTML ID (breaks if ID changes for accessibility/SEO)
-    // await page.locator('#user-settings-form').fill(...)
-
-    // ✅ Good: data-testid or ARIA landmark
-    await page.getByTestId('user-settings-form').getByLabel('Display Name').fill('John Doe');
-  });
-
-  test('✅ Refactoring: Bad → Good Selector', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-    // Before (brittle):
-    // await page.locator('.checkout-form > .payment-section > .btn-submit').click()
-
-    // After (resilient):
-    await page.getByTestId('checkout-form').getByRole('button', { name: 'Complete Payment' }).click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByText('Payment successful')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Why These Fail**:
-
-- **CSS classes**: Change frequently with design updates (Tailwind, CSS modules)
-- **nth() indexes**: Fragile to element reordering (new features, A/B tests)
-- **Complex XPath**: Unreadable, breaks with HTML structure changes
-- **HTML IDs**: Not stable (accessibility improvements change IDs)
-
-**Better Approach**: Use selector hierarchy (testid > ARIA > text)

-
-### Example 4: Selector Debugging Techniques (Inspector, DevTools, MCP)
-
-**Context**: Debug selector failures interactively to find better alternatives
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/selectors/debugging-techniques.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Selector Debugging Techniques', () => {
-  test('use Playwright Inspector to test selectors', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // Pause test to open Inspector
-    await page.pause();
-
-    // In Inspector console, test selectors:
-    // page.getByTestId('user-menu')              ✅ Works
-    // page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Profile' }) ✅ Works
-    // page.locator('.btn-primary')               ❌ Brittle
-
-    // Use "Pick Locator" feature to generate selectors
-    // Use "Record" mode to capture user interactions
-
-    await page.getByTestId('user-menu').click();
-    await expect(page.getByRole('menu')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('use locator.all() to debug lists', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // Debug: How many products are visible?
-    const products = await page.getByTestId('product-card').all();
-    console.log(`Found ${products.length} products`);
-
-    // Debug: What text is in each product?
-    for (const product of products) {
-      const text = await product.textContent();
-      console.log(`Product text: ${text}`);
-    }
-
-    // Use findings to build better selector
-    await page.getByTestId('product-card').filter({ hasText: 'Laptop' }).click();
-  });
-
-  test('use DevTools console to test selectors', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-    // Open DevTools (manually or via page.pause())
-    // Test selectors in console:
-    // document.querySelectorAll('[data-testid="payment-method"]')
-    // document.querySelector('#credit-card-input')
-
-    // Find robust selector through trial and error
-    await page.getByTestId('payment-method').selectOption('credit-card');
-  });
-
-  test('MCP browser_generate_locator (if available)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // If Playwright MCP available, use browser_generate_locator:
-    // 1. Click element in browser
-    // 2. MCP generates optimal selector
-    // 3. Copy into test
-
-    // Example output from MCP:
-    // page.getByRole('link', { name: 'Product A' })
-
-    // Use generated selector
-    await page.getByRole('link', { name: 'Product A' }).click();
-    await expect(page).toHaveURL(/\/products\/\d+/);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Playwright Inspector: Interactive selector testing with "Pick Locator" feature
-- `locator.all()`: Debug lists to understand structure and content
-- DevTools console: Test CSS selectors before adding to tests
-- MCP browser_generate_locator: Auto-generate optimal selectors (if MCP available)
-- Always validate selectors work before committing

-### Example 2: Selector Refactoring Guide (Before/After Patterns)
-
-**Context**: Systematically improve brittle selectors to resilient alternatives
-
-**Implementation**:

-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Selector Refactoring Patterns', () => {

-    // ❌ Before: CSS class (breaks with Tailwind updates)
-    // await page.locator('.bg-blue-500.px-4.py-2.rounded').click()
-
-    // ✅ After: data-testid
-    await page.getByTestId('add-to-cart-button').click();
-
-    // Implementation: Add data-testid to button component
-    // <button className="bg-blue-500 px-4 py-2 rounded" data-testid="add-to-cart-button">
-  });
-
-  test('refactor: nth() index → filter()', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/users');
-
-    // ❌ Before: Index-based (breaks when users reorder)
-    // await page.locator('.user-row').nth(2).click()
-
-    // ✅ After: Content-based filter
-    await page.locator('[data-testid="user-row"]').filter({ hasText: 'john@example.com' }).click();
-  });
-
-  test('refactor: Complex XPath → ARIA role', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-    // ❌ Before: Complex XPath (unreadable, brittle)
-    // await page.locator('xpath=//div[@id="payment"]//form//button[contains(@class, "submit")]').click()
-
-    // ✅ After: ARIA role
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Complete Payment' }).click();
-  });
-
-  test('refactor: ID selector → data-testid', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/settings');
-
-    // ❌ Before: HTML ID (changes with accessibility improvements)
-    // await page.locator('#user-profile-section').getByLabel('Name').fill('John')
-
-    // ✅ After: data-testid + semantic label
-    await page.getByTestId('user-profile-section').getByLabel('Display Name').fill('John Doe');
-  });
-
-  test('refactor: Deeply nested CSS → scoped data-testid', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // ❌ Before: Deep nesting (breaks with structure changes)
-    // await page.locator('.container .sidebar .menu .item:nth-child(3) a').click()
-
-    // ✅ After: Scoped data-testid
-    const sidebar = page.getByTestId('sidebar');
-    await sidebar.getByRole('link', { name: 'Settings' }).click();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- CSS class → data-testid (survives design system updates)
-- nth() → filter() (content-based vs index-based)
-- Complex XPath → ARIA role (readable, semantic)
-- ID → data-testid (decouples from HTML structure)
-- Deep nesting → scoped locators (modular, maintainable)

-
-**Validation Rules**:
-
-1. **Interactive elements** (buttons, inputs) → data-testid
-2. **Semantic elements** (headings, nav, forms) → ARIA roles
-3. **CSS classes** → Avoid (except visual regression tests)
-4. **Lists** → filter() over nth() (content-based selection)
-5. **Readability** → Selectors document user intent (clear, semantic)
-
----
-
-## Selector Resilience Checklist
-
-Before deploying selectors:
-
-- [ ] **Hierarchy followed**: data-testid (1st choice) > ARIA (2nd) > text (3rd) > CSS/ID (last resort)
-- [ ] **Interactive elements use data-testid**: Buttons, inputs, links have dedicated test attributes
-- [ ] **Semantic elements use ARIA**: Headings, navigation, forms use roles and accessible names
-- [ ] **No brittle patterns**: No CSS classes (except visual tests), no arbitrary nth(), no complex XPath
-- [ ] **Dynamic content handled**: Regex for IDs/timestamps, filter() for lists, partial matching for text
-- [ ] **Selectors are scoped**: Use container locators to narrow scope (prevent ambiguity)
-- [ ] **Human-readable**: Selectors document user intent (clear, semantic, maintainable)
-- [ ] **Validated in Inspector**: Test selectors interactively before committing (page.pause())
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*atdd` (generate tests with robust selectors), `*automate` (healing selector failures), `*test-review` (validate selector quality)
-- **Related fragments**: `test-healing-patterns.md` (selector failure diagnosis), `fixture-architecture.md` (page object alternatives), `test-quality.md` (maintainability standards)

-# Test Healing Patterns
-
-## Principle
-
-Common test failures follow predictable patterns (stale selectors, race conditions, dynamic data assertions, network errors, hard waits). **Automated healing** identifies failure signatures and applies pattern-based fixes. Manual healing captures these patterns for future automation.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: Test failures waste developer time on repetitive debugging. Teams manually fix the same selector issues, timing bugs, and data mismatches repeatedly across test suites.
-
-**The Solution**: Catalog common failure patterns with diagnostic signatures and automated fixes. When a test fails, match the error message/stack trace against known patterns and apply the corresponding fix. This transforms test maintenance from reactive debugging to proactive pattern application.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Reduces test maintenance time by 60-80% (pattern-based fixes vs manual debugging)
-- Prevents flakiness regression (same bug fixed once, applied everywhere)
-- Builds institutional knowledge (failure catalog grows over time)
-- Enables self-healing test suites (automate workflow validates and heals)
-
-## Pattern Examples

-**Diagnostic Signature**:

-  return `page.getByTestId('...') // Add data-testid attribute to element`;
-}
-```
-
-**Healing Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/healing/selector-healing.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-import { isSelectorFailure, extractSelector, suggestBetterSelector } from '../../src/testing/healing/selector-healing';
-
-test('heal stale selector failures automatically', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  try {
-    // Original test with brittle CSS selector
-    await page.locator('.btn-primary').click();
-  } catch (error: any) {
-    if (isSelectorFailure(error)) {
-      const badSelector = extractSelector(error.message);
-      const suggestion = badSelector ? suggestBetterSelector(badSelector) : null;
-
-      console.log('HEALING SUGGESTION:', suggestion);
-
-      // Apply healed selector
-      await page.getByTestId('submit-button').click(); // Fixed!
-    } else {
-      throw error; // Not a selector issue, rethrow
-    }
-  }
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('Success')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Diagnosis: Error message contains "locator resolved to 0 elements" or "element not found"
-- Fix: Replace brittle selector (CSS class, ID, nth) with robust alternative (data-testid, ARIA role)
-- Prevention: Follow selector hierarchy (data-testid > ARIA > text > CSS)
-- Automation: Pattern matching on error message + stack trace

-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Diagnosis: Error contains "timeout" or "not visible", often after navigation
-- Fix: Replace hard waits with network-first pattern or element state waits
-- Prevention: ALWAYS intercept before navigate, use waitForResponse()
-- Automation: Detect `page.waitForTimeout()` or `cy.wait(number)` in test code

-### Example 3: Common Failure Pattern - Dynamic Data Assertions (Non-Deterministic IDs)

-  await expect(page.getByText(`Order #${orderId}`)).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Diagnosis: Error message shows expected vs actual value mismatch with IDs/timestamps
-- Fix: Use regex patterns (`/User \d+/`), partial matching, or capture dynamic values
-- Prevention: Never hardcode IDs, timestamps, or random data in assertions
-- Automation: Parse error message for expected/actual values, suggest regex patterns

-### Example 4: Common Failure Pattern - Network Errors (Missing Route Interception)
-
-**Context**: Test fails with "API call failed" or "500 error" during test execution
-
-**Diagnostic Signature**:
-
-```typescript

-  await expect(page.getByText('Unable to load products')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Retry' })).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Diagnosis: Error message contains "API call failed", "500 error", or network-related failures
-- Fix: Add `page.route()` or `cy.intercept()` to mock API responses
-- Prevention: Mock ALL external dependencies (APIs, third-party services)
-- Automation: Extract URL from error message, generate route interception code

----
-
-### Example 5: Common Failure Pattern - Hard Waits (Unreliable Timing)
-
-**Context**: Test fails intermittently with "timeout exceeded" or passes/fails randomly
-
-**Diagnostic Signature**:
-
-```typescript
-// src/testing/healing/hard-wait-healing.ts
-
-/**
- * Detect hard wait anti-pattern in test code

-      violations.push({ line: index + 1, code: line.trim() });
-    }
-  });
-
-  return violations;
-}
-
-/**
- * Suggest event-based wait replacement
- */
-export function suggestEventBasedWait(hardWaitLine: string): string {
-  if (hardWaitLine.includes('page.waitForTimeout')) {
-    return `
-// ❌ Bad: Hard wait (flaky)
-${hardWaitLine}
-
-// ✅ Good: Wait for network response
-await page.waitForResponse(resp => resp.url().includes('/api/') && resp.ok())
-
-// OR wait for element state change

-cy.visit('/page')
-cy.wait('@getData') // Deterministic
-    `.trim();
-  }
-
-  return 'Replace hard waits with event-based waits (waitForResponse, waitFor state changes)';
-}
-```
-
-**Healing Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/healing/hard-wait-healing.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test('heal hard wait with deterministic wait', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');

-  // ❌ Original (flaky): await page.waitForTimeout(3000)
-
-  // ✅ Healed: Wait for loading spinner to disappear

-  // ✅ Healed: Wait for network first
-  await responsePromise;
-  await page.getByText('Product A').click();
-
-  await expect(page).toHaveURL(/\/products\/\d+/);
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Diagnosis: Test code contains `page.waitForTimeout()` or `cy.wait(number)`
-- Fix: Replace with `waitForResponse()`, `waitFor({ state })`, or aliased intercepts
-- Prevention: NEVER use hard waits, always use event-based/response-based waits
-- Automation: Scan test code for hard wait patterns, suggest deterministic replacements

-## Healing Pattern Catalog
-
-| Failure Type   | Diagnostic Signature                          | Healing Strategy                      | Prevention Pattern                        |
-| -------------- | --------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- |
-| Stale Selector | "locator resolved to 0 elements"              | Replace with data-testid or ARIA role | Selector hierarchy (testid > ARIA > text) |
-| Race Condition | "timeout waiting for element"                 | Add network-first interception        | Intercept before navigate                 |
-| Dynamic Data   | "Expected 'User 123' but got 'User 456'"      | Use regex or capture dynamic values   | Never hardcode IDs/timestamps             |
-| Network Error  | "API call failed", "500 error"                | Add route mocking                     | Mock all external dependencies            |
-| Hard Wait      | Test contains `waitForTimeout()` or `wait(n)` | Replace with event-based waits        | Always use deterministic waits            |
-
-## Healing Workflow
-
-1. **Run test** → Capture failure
-2. **Identify pattern** → Match error against diagnostic signatures
-3. **Apply fix** → Use pattern-based healing strategy
-4. **Re-run test** → Validate fix (max 3 iterations)
-5. **Mark unfixable** → Use `test.fixme()` if healing fails after 3 attempts
-
-## Healing Checklist
-
-Before enabling auto-healing in workflows:
-
-- [ ] **Failure catalog documented**: Common patterns identified (selectors, timing, data, network, hard waits)
-- [ ] **Diagnostic signatures defined**: Error message patterns for each failure type
-- [ ] **Healing strategies documented**: Fix patterns for each failure type
-- [ ] **Prevention patterns documented**: Best practices to avoid recurrence
-- [ ] **Healing iteration limit set**: Max 3 attempts before marking test.fixme()
-- [ ] **MCP integration optional**: Graceful degradation without Playwright MCP
-- [ ] **Pattern-based fallback**: Use knowledge base patterns when MCP unavailable
-- [ ] **Healing report generated**: Document what was healed and how
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*automate` (auto-healing after test generation), `*atdd` (optional healing for acceptance tests)
-- **Related fragments**: `selector-resilience.md` (selector debugging), `timing-debugging.md` (race condition fixes), `network-first.md` (interception patterns), `data-factories.md` (dynamic data handling)
-- **Tools**: Error message parsing, AST analysis for code patterns, Playwright MCP (optional), pattern matching

-# Test Levels Framework
-
-Comprehensive guide for determining appropriate test levels (unit, integration, E2E) for different scenarios.
-
-## Test Level Decision Matrix
-
-### Unit Tests
-
-**When to use:**
-
-- Testing pure functions and business logic
-- Algorithm correctness
-- Input validation and data transformation
-- Error handling in isolated components
-- Complex calculations or state machines
-
-**Characteristics:**
-
-- Fast execution (immediate feedback)
-- No external dependencies (DB, API, file system)
-- Highly maintainable and stable
-- Easy to debug failures
-
-**Example scenarios:**
-
-```yaml
-unit_test:
-  component: 'PriceCalculator'
-  scenario: 'Calculate discount with multiple rules'
-  justification: 'Complex business logic with multiple branches'
-  mock_requirements: 'None - pure function'
-```
-
-### Integration Tests
-
-**When to use:**
-
-- Component interaction verification
-- Database operations and transactions
-- API endpoint contracts
-- Service-to-service communication
-- Middleware and interceptor behavior
-
-**Characteristics:**
-
-- Moderate execution time
-- Tests component boundaries
-- May use test databases or containers
-- Validates system integration points
-
-**Example scenarios:**
-
-```yaml
-integration_test:
-  components: ['UserService', 'AuthRepository']
-  scenario: 'Create user with role assignment'
-  justification: 'Critical data flow between service and persistence'
-  test_environment: 'In-memory database'
-```
-
-### End-to-End Tests
-
-**When to use:**
-
-- Critical user journeys
-- Cross-system workflows
-- Visual regression testing
-- Compliance and regulatory requirements
-- Final validation before release
-
-**Characteristics:**
-
-- Slower execution
-- Tests complete workflows
-- Requires full environment setup
-- Most realistic but most brittle
-
-**Example scenarios:**
-
-```yaml
-e2e_test:
-  journey: 'Complete checkout process'
-  scenario: 'User purchases with saved payment method'
-  justification: 'Revenue-critical path requiring full validation'
-  environment: 'Staging with test payment gateway'
-```
-
-## Test Level Selection Rules
-
-### Favor Unit Tests When:
-
-- Logic can be isolated
-- No side effects involved
-- Fast feedback needed
-- High cyclomatic complexity
-
-### Favor Integration Tests When:
-
-- Testing persistence layer
-- Validating service contracts
-- Testing middleware/interceptors
-- Component boundaries critical
-
-### Favor E2E Tests When:
-
-- User-facing critical paths
-- Multi-system interactions
-- Regulatory compliance scenarios
-- Visual regression important
-
-## Anti-patterns to Avoid
-
-- E2E testing for business logic validation
-- Unit testing framework behavior
-- Integration testing third-party libraries
-- Duplicate coverage across levels
-
-## Duplicate Coverage Guard
-
-**Before adding any test, check:**
-
-1. Is this already tested at a lower level?
-2. Can a unit test cover this instead of integration?
-3. Can an integration test cover this instead of E2E?
-
-**Coverage overlap is only acceptable when:**
-
-- Testing different aspects (unit: logic, integration: interaction, e2e: user experience)
-- Critical paths requiring defense in depth
-- Regression prevention for previously broken functionality
-
-## Test Naming Conventions
-
-- Unit: `test_{component}_{scenario}`
-- Integration: `test_{flow}_{interaction}`
-- E2E: `test_{journey}_{outcome}`
-
-## Test ID Format
-
-`{EPIC}.{STORY}-{LEVEL}-{SEQ}`
-
-Examples:
-
-- `1.3-UNIT-001`
-- `1.3-INT-002`
-- `1.3-E2E-001`
-
-## Real Code Examples
-
-### Example 1: E2E Test (Full User Journey)
-
-**Scenario**: User logs in, navigates to dashboard, and places an order.
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout-flow.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-import { createUser, createProduct } from '../test-utils/factories';
-
-test.describe('Checkout Flow', () => {
-  test('user can complete purchase with saved payment method', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-    // Setup: Seed data via API (fast!)
-    const user = createUser({ email: 'buyer@example.com', hasSavedCard: true });
-    const product = createProduct({ name: 'Widget', price: 29.99, stock: 10 });
-
-    await apiRequest.post('/api/users', { data: user });
-    await apiRequest.post('/api/products', { data: product });
-
-    // Network-first: Intercept BEFORE action
-    const loginPromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/auth/login');
-    const cartPromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/cart');
-    const orderPromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/orders');
-
-    // Step 1: Login
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', user.email);
-    await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123');
-    await page.click('[data-testid="login-button"]');
-    await loginPromise;
-
-    // Assert: Dashboard visible
-    await expect(page).toHaveURL('/dashboard');
-    await expect(page.getByText(`Welcome, ${user.name}`)).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Step 2: Add product to cart
-    await page.goto(`/products/${product.id}`);
-    await page.click('[data-testid="add-to-cart"]');
-    await cartPromise;
-    await expect(page.getByText('Added to cart')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // Step 3: Checkout with saved payment
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await expect(page.getByText('Visa ending in 1234')).toBeVisible(); // Saved card
-    await page.click('[data-testid="use-saved-card"]');
-    await page.click('[data-testid="place-order"]');
-    await orderPromise;
-
-    // Assert: Order confirmation
-    await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByText(/Order #\d+/)).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByText('$29.99')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points (E2E)**:
-
-- Tests complete user journey across multiple pages
-- API setup for data (fast), UI for assertions (user-centric)
-- Network-first interception to prevent flakiness
-- Validates critical revenue path end-to-end
-
-### Example 2: Integration Test (API/Service Layer)
-
-**Scenario**: UserService creates user and assigns role via AuthRepository.
-
-```typescript
-// tests/integration/user-service.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-import { createUser } from '../test-utils/factories';
-
-test.describe('UserService Integration', () => {
-  test('should create user with admin role via API', async ({ request }) => {
-    const userData = createUser({ role: 'admin' });
-
-    // Direct API call (no UI)
-    const response = await request.post('/api/users', {
-      data: userData,
-    });
-
-    expect(response.status()).toBe(201);
-
-    const createdUser = await response.json();
-    expect(createdUser.id).toBeTruthy();
-    expect(createdUser.email).toBe(userData.email);
-    expect(createdUser.role).toBe('admin');
-
-    // Verify database state
-    const getResponse = await request.get(`/api/users/${createdUser.id}`);
-    expect(getResponse.status()).toBe(200);
-
-    const fetchedUser = await getResponse.json();
-    expect(fetchedUser.role).toBe('admin');
-    expect(fetchedUser.permissions).toContain('user:delete');
-    expect(fetchedUser.permissions).toContain('user:update');
-
-    // Cleanup
-    await request.delete(`/api/users/${createdUser.id}`);
-  });
-
-  test('should validate email uniqueness constraint', async ({ request }) => {
-    const userData = createUser({ email: 'duplicate@example.com' });
-
-    // Create first user
-    const response1 = await request.post('/api/users', { data: userData });
-    expect(response1.status()).toBe(201);
-
-    const user1 = await response1.json();
-
-    // Attempt duplicate email
-    const response2 = await request.post('/api/users', { data: userData });
-    expect(response2.status()).toBe(409); // Conflict
-    const error = await response2.json();
-    expect(error.message).toContain('Email already exists');
-
-    // Cleanup
-    await request.delete(`/api/users/${user1.id}`);
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points (Integration)**:
-
-- Tests service layer + database interaction
-- No UI involved—pure API validation
-- Business logic focus (role assignment, constraints)
-- Faster than E2E, more realistic than unit tests
-
-### Example 3: Component Test (Isolated UI Component)
-
-**Scenario**: Test button component in isolation with props and user interactions.
-
-```typescript
-// src/components/Button.cy.tsx (Cypress Component Test)
-import { Button } from './Button';
-
-describe('Button Component', () => {
-  it('should render with correct label', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Click Me" />);
-    cy.contains('Click Me').should('be.visible');
-  });
-
-  it('should call onClick handler when clicked', () => {
-    const onClickSpy = cy.stub().as('onClick');
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Submit" onClick={onClickSpy} />);
-
-    cy.get('button').click();
-    cy.get('@onClick').should('have.been.calledOnce');
-  });
-
-  it('should be disabled when disabled prop is true', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Disabled" disabled={true} />);
-    cy.get('button').should('be.disabled');
-    cy.get('button').should('have.attr', 'aria-disabled', 'true');
-  });
-
-  it('should show loading spinner when loading', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Loading" loading={true} />);
-    cy.get('[data-testid="spinner"]').should('be.visible');
-    cy.get('button').should('be.disabled');
-  });
-
-  it('should apply variant styles correctly', () => {
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Primary" variant="primary" />);
-    cy.get('button').should('have.class', 'btn-primary');
-
-    cy.mount(<Button label="Secondary" variant="secondary" />);
-    cy.get('button').should('have.class', 'btn-secondary');
-  });
-});
-
-// Playwright Component Test equivalent
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/experimental-ct-react';
-import { Button } from './Button';
-
-test.describe('Button Component', () => {
-  test('should call onClick handler when clicked', async ({ mount }) => {
-    let clicked = false;
-    const component = await mount(
-      <Button label="Submit" onClick={() => { clicked = true; }} />
-    );
-
-    await component.getByRole('button').click();
-    expect(clicked).toBe(true);
-  });
-
-  test('should be disabled when loading', async ({ mount }) => {
-    const component = await mount(<Button label="Loading" loading={true} />);
-    await expect(component.getByRole('button')).toBeDisabled();
-    await expect(component.getByTestId('spinner')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points (Component)**:
-
-- Tests UI component in isolation (no full app)
-- Props + user interactions + visual states
-- Faster than E2E, more realistic than unit tests for UI
-- Great for design system components
-
-### Example 4: Unit Test (Pure Function)
-
-**Scenario**: Test pure business logic function without framework dependencies.
-
-```typescript
-// src/utils/price-calculator.test.ts (Jest/Vitest)
-import { calculateDiscount, applyTaxes, calculateTotal } from './price-calculator';
-
-describe('PriceCalculator', () => {
-  describe('calculateDiscount', () => {
-    it('should apply percentage discount correctly', () => {
-      const result = calculateDiscount(100, { type: 'percentage', value: 20 });
-      expect(result).toBe(80);
-    });
-
-    it('should apply fixed amount discount correctly', () => {
-      const result = calculateDiscount(100, { type: 'fixed', value: 15 });
-      expect(result).toBe(85);
-    });
-
-    it('should not apply discount below zero', () => {
-      const result = calculateDiscount(10, { type: 'fixed', value: 20 });
-      expect(result).toBe(0);
-    });
-
-    it('should handle no discount', () => {
-      const result = calculateDiscount(100, { type: 'none', value: 0 });
-      expect(result).toBe(100);
-    });
-  });
-
-  describe('applyTaxes', () => {
-    it('should calculate tax correctly for US', () => {
-      const result = applyTaxes(100, { country: 'US', rate: 0.08 });
-      expect(result).toBe(108);
-    });
-
-    it('should calculate tax correctly for EU (VAT)', () => {
-      const result = applyTaxes(100, { country: 'DE', rate: 0.19 });
-      expect(result).toBe(119);
-    });
-
-    it('should handle zero tax rate', () => {
-      const result = applyTaxes(100, { country: 'US', rate: 0 });
-      expect(result).toBe(100);
-    });
-  });
-
-  describe('calculateTotal', () => {
-    it('should calculate total with discount and taxes', () => {
-      const items = [
-        { price: 50, quantity: 2 }, // 100
-        { price: 30, quantity: 1 }, // 30
-      ];
-      const discount = { type: 'percentage', value: 10 }; // -13
-      const tax = { country: 'US', rate: 0.08 }; // +9.36
-
-      const result = calculateTotal(items, discount, tax);
-      expect(result).toBeCloseTo(126.36, 2);
-    });
-
-    it('should handle empty items array', () => {
-      const result = calculateTotal([], { type: 'none', value: 0 }, { country: 'US', rate: 0 });
-      expect(result).toBe(0);
-    });
-
-    it('should calculate correctly without discount or tax', () => {
-      const items = [{ price: 25, quantity: 4 }];
-      const result = calculateTotal(items, { type: 'none', value: 0 }, { country: 'US', rate: 0 });
-      expect(result).toBe(100);
-    });
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points (Unit)**:
-
-- Pure function testing—no framework dependencies
-- Fast execution (milliseconds)
-- Edge case coverage (zero, negative, empty inputs)
-- High cyclomatic complexity handled at unit level
-
-## When to Use Which Level
-
-| Scenario               | Unit          | Integration       | E2E           |
-| ---------------------- | ------------- | ----------------- | ------------- |
-| Pure business logic    | ✅ Primary    | ❌ Overkill       | ❌ Overkill   |
-| Database operations    | ❌ Can't test | ✅ Primary        | ❌ Overkill   |
-| API contracts          | ❌ Can't test | ✅ Primary        | ⚠️ Supplement |
-| User journeys          | ❌ Can't test | ❌ Can't test     | ✅ Primary    |
-| Component props/events | ✅ Partial    | ⚠️ Component test | ❌ Overkill   |
-| Visual regression      | ❌ Can't test | ⚠️ Component test | ✅ Primary    |
-| Error handling (logic) | ✅ Primary    | ⚠️ Integration    | ❌ Overkill   |
-| Error handling (UI)    | ❌ Partial    | ⚠️ Component test | ✅ Primary    |
-
-## Anti-Pattern Examples
-
-**❌ BAD: E2E test for business logic**
-
-```typescript
-// DON'T DO THIS
-test('calculate discount via UI', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/calculator');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="price"]', '100');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="discount"]', '20');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="calculate"]');
-  await expect(page.getByText('$80')).toBeVisible();
-});
-// Problem: Slow, brittle, tests logic that should be unit tested
-```
-
-**✅ GOOD: Unit test for business logic**
-
-```typescript
-test('calculate discount', () => {
-  expect(calculateDiscount(100, 20)).toBe(80);
-});
-// Fast, reliable, isolated
-```

-# Test Priorities Matrix
-
-Guide for prioritizing test scenarios based on risk, criticality, and business impact.
-
-## Priority Levels
-
-### P0 - Critical (Must Test)
-
-**Criteria:**
-
-- Revenue-impacting functionality
-- Security-critical paths
-- Data integrity operations
-- Regulatory compliance requirements
-- Previously broken functionality (regression prevention)
-
-**Examples:**
-
-- Payment processing
-- Authentication/authorization
-- User data creation/deletion
-- Financial calculations
-- GDPR/privacy compliance
-
-**Testing Requirements:**
-
-- Comprehensive coverage at all levels
-- Both happy and unhappy paths
-- Edge cases and error scenarios
-- Performance under load
-
-### P1 - High (Should Test)
-
-**Criteria:**
-
-- Core user journeys
-- Frequently used features
-- Features with complex logic
-- Integration points between systems
-- Features affecting user experience
-
-**Examples:**
-
-- User registration flow
-- Search functionality
-- Data import/export
-- Notification systems
-- Dashboard displays
-
-**Testing Requirements:**
-
-- Primary happy paths required
-- Key error scenarios
-- Critical edge cases
-- Basic performance validation
-
-### P2 - Medium (Nice to Test)
-
-**Criteria:**
-
-- Secondary features
-- Admin functionality
-- Reporting features
-- Configuration options
-- UI polish and aesthetics
-
-**Examples:**
-
-- Admin settings panels
-- Report generation
-- Theme customization
-- Help documentation
-- Analytics tracking
-
-**Testing Requirements:**
-
-- Happy path coverage
-- Basic error handling
-- Can defer edge cases
-
-### P3 - Low (Test if Time Permits)
-
-**Criteria:**
-
-- Rarely used features
-- Nice-to-have functionality
-- Cosmetic issues
-- Non-critical optimizations
-
-**Examples:**
-
-- Advanced preferences
-- Legacy feature support
-- Experimental features
-- Debug utilities
-
-**Testing Requirements:**
-
-- Smoke tests only
-- Can rely on manual testing
-- Document known limitations
-
-## Risk-Based Priority Adjustments
-
-### Increase Priority When:
-
-- High user impact (affects >50% of users)
-- High financial impact (>$10K potential loss)
-- Security vulnerability potential
-- Compliance/legal requirements
-- Customer-reported issues
-- Complex implementation (>500 LOC)
-- Multiple system dependencies
-
-### Decrease Priority When:
-
-- Feature flag protected
-- Gradual rollout planned
-- Strong monitoring in place
-- Easy rollback capability
-- Low usage metrics
-- Simple implementation
-- Well-isolated component
-
-## Test Coverage by Priority
-
-| Priority | Unit Coverage | Integration Coverage | E2E Coverage       |
-| -------- | ------------- | -------------------- | ------------------ |
-| P0       | >90%          | >80%                 | All critical paths |
-| P1       | >80%          | >60%                 | Main happy paths   |
-| P2       | >60%          | >40%                 | Smoke tests        |
-| P3       | Best effort   | Best effort          | Manual only        |
-
-## Priority Assignment Rules
-
-1. **Start with business impact** - What happens if this fails?
-2. **Consider probability** - How likely is failure?
-3. **Factor in detectability** - Would we know if it failed?
-4. **Account for recoverability** - Can we fix it quickly?
-
-## Priority Decision Tree
-
-```
-Is it revenue-critical?
-├─ YES → P0
-└─ NO → Does it affect core user journey?
-    ├─ YES → Is it high-risk?
-    │   ├─ YES → P0
-    │   └─ NO → P1
-    └─ NO → Is it frequently used?
-        ├─ YES → P1
-        └─ NO → Is it customer-facing?
-            ├─ YES → P2
-            └─ NO → P3
-```
-
-## Test Execution Order
-
-1. Execute P0 tests first (fail fast on critical issues)
-2. Execute P1 tests second (core functionality)
-3. Execute P2 tests if time permits
-4. P3 tests only in full regression cycles
-
-## Continuous Adjustment
-
-Review and adjust priorities based on:
-
-- Production incident patterns
-- User feedback and complaints
-- Usage analytics
-- Test failure history
-- Business priority changes
-

-## Automated Priority Classification
-
-### Example: Priority Calculator (Risk-Based Automation)
-
-```typescript
-// src/testing/priority-calculator.ts
-
-export type Priority = 'P0' | 'P1' | 'P2' | 'P3';
-
-export type PriorityFactors = {
-  revenueImpact: 'critical' | 'high' | 'medium' | 'low' | 'none';
-  userImpact: 'all' | 'majority' | 'some' | 'few' | 'minimal';
-  securityRisk: boolean;
-  complianceRequired: boolean;
-  previousFailure: boolean;
-  complexity: 'high' | 'medium' | 'low';
-  usage: 'frequent' | 'regular' | 'occasional' | 'rare';
-};
-
-/**
- * Calculate test priority based on multiple factors
- * Mirrors the priority decision tree with objective criteria
- */
-export function calculatePriority(factors: PriorityFactors): Priority {
-  const { revenueImpact, userImpact, securityRisk, complianceRequired, previousFailure, complexity, usage } = factors;
-
-  // P0: Revenue-critical, security, or compliance
-  if (revenueImpact === 'critical' || securityRisk || complianceRequired || (previousFailure && revenueImpact === 'high')) {
-    return 'P0';
-  }
-
-  // P0: High revenue + high complexity + frequent usage
-  if (revenueImpact === 'high' && complexity === 'high' && usage === 'frequent') {
-    return 'P0';
-  }
-
-  // P1: Core user journey (majority impacted + frequent usage)
-  if (userImpact === 'all' || userImpact === 'majority') {
-    if (usage === 'frequent' || complexity === 'high') {
-      return 'P1';
-    }
-  }
-
-  // P1: High revenue OR high complexity with regular usage
-  if ((revenueImpact === 'high' && usage === 'regular') || (complexity === 'high' && usage === 'frequent')) {
-    return 'P1';
-  }
-
-  // P2: Secondary features (some impact, occasional usage)
-  if (userImpact === 'some' || usage === 'occasional') {
-    return 'P2';
-  }
-
-  // P3: Rarely used, low impact
-  return 'P3';
-}
-
-/**
- * Generate priority justification (for audit trail)
- */
-export function justifyPriority(factors: PriorityFactors): string {
-  const priority = calculatePriority(factors);
-  const reasons: string[] = [];
-
-  if (factors.revenueImpact === 'critical') reasons.push('critical revenue impact');
-  if (factors.securityRisk) reasons.push('security-critical');
-  if (factors.complianceRequired) reasons.push('compliance requirement');
-  if (factors.previousFailure) reasons.push('regression prevention');
-  if (factors.userImpact === 'all' || factors.userImpact === 'majority') {
-    reasons.push(`impacts ${factors.userImpact} users`);
-  }
-  if (factors.complexity === 'high') reasons.push('high complexity');
-  if (factors.usage === 'frequent') reasons.push('frequently used');
-
-  return `${priority}: ${reasons.join(', ')}`;
-}
-
-/**
- * Example: Payment scenario priority calculation
- */
-const paymentScenario: PriorityFactors = {
-  revenueImpact: 'critical',
-  userImpact: 'all',
-  securityRisk: true,
-  complianceRequired: true,
-  previousFailure: false,
-  complexity: 'high',
-  usage: 'frequent',
-};
-
-console.log(calculatePriority(paymentScenario)); // 'P0'
-console.log(justifyPriority(paymentScenario));
-// 'P0: critical revenue impact, security-critical, compliance requirement, impacts all users, high complexity, frequently used'
-```
-
-### Example: Test Suite Tagging Strategy
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-// Tag tests with priority for selective execution
-test.describe('Checkout Flow', () => {
-  test('valid payment completes successfully @p0 @smoke @revenue', async ({ page }) => {
-    // P0: Revenue-critical happy path
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('payment-method').selectOption('credit-card');
-    await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4242424242424242');
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Place Order' }).click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByText('Order confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('expired card shows user-friendly error @p1 @error-handling', async ({ page }) => {
-    // P1: Core error scenario (frequent user impact)
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('payment-method').selectOption('credit-card');
-    await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4000000000000069'); // Test card: expired
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Place Order' }).click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByText('Card expired. Please use a different card.')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('coupon code applies discount correctly @p2', async ({ page }) => {
-    // P2: Secondary feature (nice-to-have)
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('coupon-code').fill('SAVE10');
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Apply' }).click();
-
-    await expect(page.getByText('10% discount applied')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('gift message formatting preserved @p3', async ({ page }) => {
-    // P3: Cosmetic feature (rarely used)
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-    await page.getByTestId('gift-message').fill('Happy Birthday!\n\nWith love.');
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Place Order' }).click();
-
-    // Message formatting preserved (linebreaks intact)
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('order-summary')).toContainText('Happy Birthday!');
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Run tests by priority:**
-
-```bash
-# P0 only (smoke tests, 2-5 min)
-npx playwright test --grep @p0
-
-# P0 + P1 (core functionality, 10-15 min)
-npx playwright test --grep "@p0|@p1"
-
-# Full regression (all priorities, 30+ min)
-npx playwright test
-```

-
-## Integration with Risk Scoring
-
-Priority should align with risk score from `probability-impact.md`:
-
-| Risk Score | Typical Priority | Rationale                                  |
-| ---------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
-| 9          | P0               | Critical blocker (probability=3, impact=3) |
-| 6-8        | P0 or P1         | High risk (requires mitigation)            |
-| 4-5        | P1 or P2         | Medium risk (monitor closely)              |
-| 1-3        | P2 or P3         | Low risk (document and defer)              |
-
-**Example**: Risk score 9 (checkout API failure) → P0 priority → comprehensive coverage required.
-
----
-
-## Priority Checklist
-
-Before finalizing test priorities:
-
-- [ ] **Revenue impact assessed**: Payment, subscription, billing features → P0
-- [ ] **Security risks identified**: Auth, data exposure, injection attacks → P0
-- [ ] **Compliance requirements documented**: GDPR, PCI-DSS, SOC2 → P0
-- [ ] **User impact quantified**: >50% users → P0/P1, <10% → P2/P3
-- [ ] **Previous failures reviewed**: Regression prevention → increase priority
-- [ ] **Complexity evaluated**: >500 LOC or multiple dependencies → increase priority
-- [ ] **Usage metrics consulted**: Frequent use → P0/P1, rare use → P2/P3
-- [ ] **Monitoring coverage confirmed**: Strong monitoring → can decrease priority
-- [ ] **Rollback capability verified**: Easy rollback → can decrease priority
-- [ ] **Priorities tagged in tests**: @p0, @p1, @p2, @p3 for selective execution
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*automate` (priority-based test generation), `*test-design` (scenario prioritization), `*trace` (coverage validation by priority)
-- **Related fragments**: `risk-governance.md` (risk scoring), `probability-impact.md` (impact assessment), `selective-testing.md` (tag-based execution)
-- **Tools**: Playwright/Cypress grep for tag filtering, CI scripts for priority-based execution

-# Test Quality Definition of Done
-
-## Principle
-
-Tests must be deterministic, isolated, explicit, focused, and fast. Every test should execute in under 1.5 minutes, contain fewer than 300 lines, avoid hard waits and conditionals, keep assertions visible in test bodies, and clean up after itself for parallel execution.
-
-## Rationale
-
-Quality tests provide reliable signal about application health. Flaky tests erode confidence and waste engineering time. Tests that use hard waits (`waitForTimeout(3000)`) are non-deterministic and slow. Tests with hidden assertions or conditional logic become unmaintainable. Large tests (>300 lines) are hard to understand and debug. Slow tests (>1.5 min) block CI pipelines. Self-cleaning tests prevent state pollution in parallel runs.
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Deterministic Test Pattern
-
-**Context**: When writing tests, eliminate all sources of non-determinism: hard waits, conditionals controlling flow, try-catch for flow control, and random data without seeds.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: Non-deterministic test with conditionals and hard waits
-test('user can view dashboard - FLAKY', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(3000); // NEVER - arbitrary wait
-
-  // Conditional flow control - test behavior varies
-  if (await page.locator('[data-testid="welcome-banner"]').isVisible()) {
-    await page.click('[data-testid="dismiss-banner"]');
-    await page.waitForTimeout(500);
-  }
-
-  // Try-catch for flow control - hides real issues
-  try {
-    await page.click('[data-testid="load-more"]');
-  } catch (e) {
-    // Silently continue - test passes even if button missing
-  }
-
-  // Random data without control
-  const randomEmail = `user${Math.random()}@example.com`;
-  await expect(page.getByText(randomEmail)).toBeVisible(); // Will fail randomly
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Deterministic test with explicit waits
-test('user can view dashboard', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  const user = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com', hasSeenWelcome: true });
-
-  // Setup via API (fast, controlled)
-  await apiRequest.post('/api/users', { data: user });
-
-  // Network-first: Intercept BEFORE navigate
-  const dashboardPromise = page.waitForResponse((resp) => resp.url().includes('/api/dashboard') && resp.status() === 200);
-
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Wait for actual response, not arbitrary time
-  const dashboardResponse = await dashboardPromise;
-  const dashboard = await dashboardResponse.json();
-
-  // Explicit assertions with controlled data
-  await expect(page.getByText(`Welcome, ${user.name}`)).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('dashboard-items')).toHaveCount(dashboard.items.length);
-
-  // No conditionals - test always executes same path
-  // No try-catch - failures bubble up clearly
-});
-
-// Cypress equivalent
-describe('Dashboard', () => {
-  it('should display user dashboard', () => {
-    const user = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com', hasSeenWelcome: true });
-
-    // Setup via task (fast, controlled)
-    cy.task('db:seed', { users: [user] });
-
-    // Network-first interception
-    cy.intercept('GET', '**/api/dashboard').as('getDashboard');
-
-    cy.visit('/dashboard');
-
-    // Deterministic wait for response
-    cy.wait('@getDashboard').then((interception) => {
-      const dashboard = interception.response.body;
-
-      // Explicit assertions
-      cy.contains(`Welcome, ${user.name}`).should('be.visible');
-      cy.get('[data-cy="dashboard-items"]').should('have.length', dashboard.items.length);
-    });
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Replace `waitForTimeout()` with `waitForResponse()` or element state checks
-- Never use if/else to control test flow - tests should be deterministic
-- Avoid try-catch for flow control - let failures bubble up clearly
-- Use factory functions with controlled data, not `Math.random()`
-- Network-first pattern prevents race conditions
-
-### Example 2: Isolated Test with Cleanup
-
-**Context**: When tests create data, they must clean up after themselves to prevent state pollution in parallel runs. Use fixture auto-cleanup or explicit teardown.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: Test leaves data behind, pollutes other tests
-test('admin can create user - POLLUTES STATE', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  await page.goto('/admin/users');
-
-  // Hardcoded email - collides in parallel runs
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', 'newuser@example.com');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="name"]', 'New User');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="create-user"]');
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('User created')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // NO CLEANUP - user remains in database
-  // Next test run fails: "Email already exists"
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Test cleans up with fixture auto-cleanup
-// playwright/support/fixtures/database-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import { deleteRecord, seedDatabase } from '../helpers/db-helpers';
-
-type DatabaseFixture = {
-  seedUser: (userData: Partial<User>) => Promise<User>;
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<DatabaseFixture>({
-  seedUser: async ({}, use) => {
-    const createdUsers: string[] = [];
-
-    const seedUser = async (userData: Partial<User>) => {
-      const user = await seedDatabase('users', userData);
-      createdUsers.push(user.id); // Track for cleanup
-      return user;
-    };
-
-    await use(seedUser);
-
-    // Auto-cleanup: Delete all users created during test
-    for (const userId of createdUsers) {
-      await deleteRecord('users', userId);
-    }
-    createdUsers.length = 0;
-  },
-});
-
-// Use the fixture
-test('admin can create user', async ({ page, seedUser }) => {
-  // Create admin with unique data
-  const admin = await seedUser({
-    email: faker.internet.email(), // Unique each run
-    role: 'admin',
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/admin/users');
-
-  const newUserEmail = faker.internet.email(); // Unique
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', newUserEmail);
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="name"]', 'New User');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="create-user"]');
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('User created')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Verify in database
-  const createdUser = await seedUser({ email: newUserEmail });
-  expect(createdUser.email).toBe(newUserEmail);
-
-  // Auto-cleanup happens via fixture teardown
-});
-
-// Cypress equivalent with explicit cleanup
-describe('Admin User Management', () => {
-  const createdUserIds: string[] = [];
-
-  afterEach(() => {
-    // Cleanup: Delete all users created during test
-    createdUserIds.forEach((userId) => {
-      cy.task('db:delete', { table: 'users', id: userId });
-    });
-    createdUserIds.length = 0;
-  });
-
-  it('should create user', () => {
-    const admin = createUser({ role: 'admin' });
-    const newUser = createUser(); // Unique data via faker
-
-    cy.task('db:seed', { users: [admin] }).then((result: any) => {
-      createdUserIds.push(result.users[0].id);
-    });
-
-    cy.visit('/admin/users');
-    cy.get('[data-cy="email"]').type(newUser.email);
-    cy.get('[data-cy="name"]').type(newUser.name);
-    cy.get('[data-cy="create-user"]').click();
-
-    cy.contains('User created').should('be.visible');
-
-    // Track for cleanup
-    cy.task('db:findByEmail', newUser.email).then((user: any) => {
-      createdUserIds.push(user.id);
-    });
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Use fixtures with auto-cleanup via teardown (after `use()`)
-- Track all created resources in array during test execution
-- Use `faker` for unique data - prevents parallel collisions
-- Cypress: Use `afterEach()` with explicit cleanup
-- Never hardcode IDs or emails - always generate unique values
-
-### Example 3: Explicit Assertions in Tests
-
-**Context**: When validating test results, keep assertions visible in test bodies. Never hide assertions in helper functions - this obscures test intent and makes failures harder to diagnose.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: Assertions hidden in helper functions
-// helpers/api-validators.ts
-export async function validateUserCreation(response: Response, expectedEmail: string) {
-  const user = await response.json();
-  expect(response.status()).toBe(201);
-  expect(user.email).toBe(expectedEmail);
-  expect(user.id).toBeTruthy();
-  expect(user.createdAt).toBeTruthy();
-  // Hidden assertions - not visible in test
-}
-
-test('create user via API - OPAQUE', async ({ request }) => {
-  const userData = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-
-  const response = await request.post('/api/users', { data: userData });
-
-  // What assertions are running? Have to check helper.
-  await validateUserCreation(response, userData.email);
-  // When this fails, error is: "validateUserCreation failed" - NOT helpful
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Assertions explicit in test
-test('create user via API', async ({ request }) => {
-  const userData = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-
-  const response = await request.post('/api/users', { data: userData });
-
-  // All assertions visible - clear test intent
-  expect(response.status()).toBe(201);
-
-  const createdUser = await response.json();
-  expect(createdUser.id).toBeTruthy();
-  expect(createdUser.email).toBe(userData.email);
-  expect(createdUser.name).toBe(userData.name);
-  expect(createdUser.role).toBe('user');
-  expect(createdUser.createdAt).toBeTruthy();
-  expect(createdUser.isActive).toBe(true);
-
-  // When this fails, error is: "Expected role to be 'user', got 'admin'" - HELPFUL
-});
-
-// ✅ ACCEPTABLE: Helper for data extraction, NOT assertions
-// helpers/api-extractors.ts
-export async function extractUserFromResponse(response: Response): Promise<User> {
-  const user = await response.json();
-  return user; // Just extracts, no assertions
-}
-
-test('create user with extraction helper', async ({ request }) => {
-  const userData = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-
-  const response = await request.post('/api/users', { data: userData });
-
-  // Extract data with helper (OK)
-  const createdUser = await extractUserFromResponse(response);
-
-  // But keep assertions in test (REQUIRED)
-  expect(response.status()).toBe(201);
-  expect(createdUser.email).toBe(userData.email);
-  expect(createdUser.role).toBe('user');
-});
-
-// Cypress equivalent
-describe('User API', () => {
-  it('should create user with explicit assertions', () => {
-    const userData = createUser({ email: 'test@example.com' });
-
-    cy.request('POST', '/api/users', userData).then((response) => {
-      // All assertions visible in test
-      expect(response.status).to.equal(201);
-      expect(response.body.id).to.exist;
-      expect(response.body.email).to.equal(userData.email);
-      expect(response.body.name).to.equal(userData.name);
-      expect(response.body.role).to.equal('user');
-      expect(response.body.createdAt).to.exist;
-      expect(response.body.isActive).to.be.true;
-    });
-  });
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Parametrized tests for soft assertions (bulk validation)
-test.describe('User creation validation', () => {
-  const testCases = [
-    { field: 'email', value: 'test@example.com', expected: 'test@example.com' },
-    { field: 'name', value: 'Test User', expected: 'Test User' },
-    { field: 'role', value: 'admin', expected: 'admin' },
-    { field: 'isActive', value: true, expected: true },
-  ];
-
-  for (const { field, value, expected } of testCases) {
-    test(`should set ${field} correctly`, async ({ request }) => {
-      const userData = createUser({ [field]: value });
-
-      const response = await request.post('/api/users', { data: userData });
-      const user = await response.json();
-
-      // Parametrized assertion - still explicit
-      expect(user[field]).toBe(expected);
-    });
-  }
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Never hide `expect()` calls in helper functions
-- Helpers can extract/transform data, but assertions stay in tests
-- Parametrized tests are acceptable for bulk validation (still explicit)
-- Explicit assertions make failures actionable: "Expected X, got Y"
-- Hidden assertions produce vague failures: "Helper function failed"
-
-### Example 4: Test Length Limits
-
-**Context**: When tests grow beyond 300 lines, they become hard to understand, debug, and maintain. Refactor long tests by extracting setup helpers, splitting scenarios, or using fixtures.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: 400-line monolithic test (truncated for example)
-test('complete user journey - TOO LONG', async ({ page, request }) => {
-  // 50 lines of setup
-  const admin = createUser({ role: 'admin' });
-  await request.post('/api/users', { data: admin });
-  await page.goto('/login');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', admin.email);
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="login"]');
-  await expect(page).toHaveURL('/dashboard');
-
-  // 100 lines of user creation
-  await page.goto('/admin/users');
-  const newUser = createUser();
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', newUser.email);
-  // ... 95 more lines of form filling, validation, etc.
-
-  // 100 lines of permissions assignment
-  await page.click('[data-testid="assign-permissions"]');
-  // ... 95 more lines
-
-  // 100 lines of notification preferences
-  await page.click('[data-testid="notification-settings"]');
-  // ... 95 more lines
-
-  // 50 lines of cleanup
-  await request.delete(`/api/users/${newUser.id}`);
-  // ... 45 more lines
-
-  // TOTAL: 400 lines - impossible to understand or debug
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: Split into focused tests with shared fixture
-// playwright/support/fixtures/admin-fixture.ts
-export const test = base.extend({
-  adminPage: async ({ page, request }, use) => {
-    // Shared setup: Login as admin
-    const admin = createUser({ role: 'admin' });
-    await request.post('/api/users', { data: admin });
-
-    await page.goto('/login');
-    await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', admin.email);
-    await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123');
-    await page.click('[data-testid="login"]');
-    await expect(page).toHaveURL('/dashboard');
-
-    await use(page); // Provide logged-in page
-
-    // Cleanup handled by fixture
-  },
-});
-
-// Test 1: User creation (50 lines)
-test('admin can create user', async ({ adminPage, seedUser }) => {
-  await adminPage.goto('/admin/users');
-
-  const newUser = createUser();
-  await adminPage.fill('[data-testid="email"]', newUser.email);
-  await adminPage.fill('[data-testid="name"]', newUser.name);
-  await adminPage.click('[data-testid="role-dropdown"]');
-  await adminPage.click('[data-testid="role-user"]');
-  await adminPage.click('[data-testid="create-user"]');
-
-  await expect(adminPage.getByText('User created')).toBeVisible();
-  await expect(adminPage.getByText(newUser.email)).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Verify in database
-  const created = await seedUser({ email: newUser.email });
-  expect(created.role).toBe('user');
-});
-
-// Test 2: Permission assignment (60 lines)
-test('admin can assign permissions', async ({ adminPage, seedUser }) => {
-  const user = await seedUser({ email: faker.internet.email() });
-
-  await adminPage.goto(`/admin/users/${user.id}`);
-  await adminPage.click('[data-testid="assign-permissions"]');
-  await adminPage.check('[data-testid="permission-read"]');
-  await adminPage.check('[data-testid="permission-write"]');
-  await adminPage.click('[data-testid="save-permissions"]');
-
-  await expect(adminPage.getByText('Permissions updated')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Verify permissions assigned
-  const response = await adminPage.request.get(`/api/users/${user.id}`);
-  const updated = await response.json();
-  expect(updated.permissions).toContain('read');
-  expect(updated.permissions).toContain('write');
-});
-
-// Test 3: Notification preferences (70 lines)
-test('admin can update notification preferences', async ({ adminPage, seedUser }) => {
-  const user = await seedUser({ email: faker.internet.email() });
-
-  await adminPage.goto(`/admin/users/${user.id}/notifications`);
-  await adminPage.check('[data-testid="email-notifications"]');
-  await adminPage.uncheck('[data-testid="sms-notifications"]');
-  await adminPage.selectOption('[data-testid="frequency"]', 'daily');
-  await adminPage.click('[data-testid="save-preferences"]');
-
-  await expect(adminPage.getByText('Preferences saved')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Verify preferences
-  const response = await adminPage.request.get(`/api/users/${user.id}/preferences`);
-  const prefs = await response.json();
-  expect(prefs.emailEnabled).toBe(true);
-  expect(prefs.smsEnabled).toBe(false);
-  expect(prefs.frequency).toBe('daily');
-});
-
-// TOTAL: 3 tests × 60 lines avg = 180 lines
-// Each test is focused, debuggable, and under 300 lines
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Split monolithic tests into focused scenarios (<300 lines each)
-- Extract common setup into fixtures (auto-runs for each test)
-- Each test validates one concern (user creation, permissions, preferences)
-- Failures are easier to diagnose: "Permission assignment failed" vs "Complete journey failed"
-- Tests can run in parallel (isolated concerns)
-
-### Example 5: Execution Time Optimization
-
-**Context**: When tests take longer than 1.5 minutes, they slow CI pipelines and feedback loops. Optimize by using API setup instead of UI navigation, parallelizing independent operations, and avoiding unnecessary waits.
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// ❌ BAD: 4-minute test (slow setup, sequential operations)
-test('user completes order - SLOW (4 min)', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Step 1: Manual signup via UI (90 seconds)

-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', 'buyer@example.com');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="confirm-password"]', 'password123');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="name"]', 'Buyer User');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="signup"]');
-  await page.waitForURL('/verify-email'); // Wait for email verification
-  // ... manual email verification flow
-
-  // Step 2: Manual product creation via UI (60 seconds)
-  await page.goto('/admin/products');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="product-name"]', 'Widget');
-  // ... 20 more fields
-  await page.click('[data-testid="create-product"]');
-
-  // Step 3: Navigate to checkout (30 seconds)
-  await page.goto('/products');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(5000); // Unnecessary hard wait
-  await page.click('[data-testid="product-widget"]');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(3000); // Unnecessary
-  await page.click('[data-testid="add-to-cart"]');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(2000); // Unnecessary
-
-  // Step 4: Complete checkout (40 seconds)
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(5000); // Unnecessary
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="credit-card"]', '4111111111111111');
-  // ... more form filling
-  await page.click('[data-testid="submit-order"]');
-  await page.waitForTimeout(10000); // Unnecessary
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('Order Confirmed')).toBeVisible();
-
-  // TOTAL: ~240 seconds (4 minutes)
-});
-
-// ✅ GOOD: 45-second test (API setup, parallel ops, deterministic waits)
-test('user completes order', async ({ page, apiRequest }) => {
-  // Step 1: API setup (parallel, 5 seconds total)
-  const [user, product] = await Promise.all([

-          name: 'Widget',
-          price: 29.99,
-          stock: 10,
-        }),
-      })
-      .then((r) => r.json()),
-  ]);
-
-  // Step 2: Auth setup via storage state (instant, 0 seconds)

-
-  // TOTAL: ~45 seconds (6x faster)

-
-// Cypress equivalent

-
-    cy.contains('Order Confirmed').should('be.visible');
-    cy.contains(`Order #${product.id}`).should('be.visible');
-  });
-});
-
-// Additional optimization: Shared auth state (0 seconds per test)
-// playwright/support/global-setup.ts
-export default async function globalSetup() {
-  const browser = await chromium.launch();
-  const page = await browser.newPage();
-
-  // Create admin user once for all tests
-  const admin = createUser({ role: 'admin', emailVerified: true });
-  await page.request.post('/api/users', { data: admin });
-
-  // Login once, save session
-  await page.goto('/login');
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="email"]', admin.email);
-  await page.fill('[data-testid="password"]', 'password123');
-  await page.click('[data-testid="login"]');
-
-  // Save auth state for reuse
-  await page.context().storageState({ path: 'playwright/.auth/admin.json' });

-}
-
-// Use shared auth in tests (instant)
-test.use({ storageState: 'playwright/.auth/admin.json' });
-
-test('admin action', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Already logged in - no auth overhead (0 seconds)
-  await page.goto('/admin');
-  // ... test logic
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Use API for data setup (10-50x faster than UI)
-- Run independent operations in parallel (`Promise.all`)
-- Replace hard waits with deterministic waits (`waitForResponse`)
-- Reuse auth sessions via `storageState` (Playwright) or `setCookie` (Cypress)
-- Skip unnecessary flows (email verification, multi-step signups)
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*atdd` (test generation quality), `*automate` (test expansion quality), `*test-review` (quality validation)
-- **Related fragments**:
-  - `network-first.md` - Deterministic waiting strategies
-  - `data-factories.md` - Isolated, parallel-safe data patterns
-  - `fixture-architecture.md` - Setup extraction and cleanup
-  - `test-levels-framework.md` - Choosing appropriate test granularity for speed
-
-## Core Quality Checklist
-
-Every test must pass these criteria:
-
-- [ ] **No Hard Waits** - Use `waitForResponse`, `waitForLoadState`, or element state (not `waitForTimeout`)
-- [ ] **No Conditionals** - Tests execute the same path every time (no if/else, try/catch for flow control)
-- [ ] **< 300 Lines** - Keep tests focused; split large tests or extract setup to fixtures
-- [ ] **< 1.5 Minutes** - Optimize with API setup, parallel operations, and shared auth
-- [ ] **Self-Cleaning** - Use fixtures with auto-cleanup or explicit `afterEach()` teardown
-- [ ] **Explicit Assertions** - Keep `expect()` calls in test bodies, not hidden in helpers
-- [ ] **Unique Data** - Use `faker` for dynamic data; never hardcode IDs or emails
-- [ ] **Parallel-Safe** - Tests don't share state; run successfully with `--workers=4`

-# Timing Debugging and Race Condition Fixes
-
-## Principle
-
-Race conditions arise when tests make assumptions about asynchronous timing (network, animations, state updates). **Deterministic waiting** eliminates flakiness by explicitly waiting for observable events (network responses, element state changes) instead of arbitrary timeouts.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: Tests pass locally but fail in CI (different timing), or pass/fail randomly (race conditions). Hard waits (`waitForTimeout`, `sleep`) mask timing issues without solving them.
-
-**The Solution**: Replace all hard waits with event-based waits (`waitForResponse`, `waitFor({ state })`). Implement network-first pattern (intercept before navigate). Use explicit state checks (loading spinner detached, data loaded). This makes tests deterministic regardless of network speed or system load.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Eliminates flaky tests (0 tolerance for timing-based failures)
-- Works consistently across environments (local, CI, production-like)
-- Faster test execution (no unnecessary waits)
-- Clearer test intent (explicit about what we're waiting for)
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Race Condition Identification (Network-First Pattern)
-
-**Context**: Prevent race conditions by intercepting network requests before navigation
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/timing/race-condition-prevention.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Race Condition Prevention Patterns', () => {
-  test('❌ Anti-Pattern: Navigate then intercept (race condition)', async ({ page, context }) => {
-    // BAD: Navigation starts before interception ready
-    await page.goto('/products'); // ⚠️ Race! API might load before route is set
-
-    await context.route('**/api/products', (route) => {
-      route.fulfill({ status: 200, body: JSON.stringify({ products: [] }) });
-    });
-
-    // Test may see real API response or mock (non-deterministic)
-  });
-
-  test('✅ Pattern: Intercept BEFORE navigate (deterministic)', async ({ page, context }) => {
-    // GOOD: Interception ready before navigation
-    await context.route('**/api/products', (route) => {
-      route.fulfill({
-        status: 200,
-        contentType: 'application/json',
-        body: JSON.stringify({
-          products: [
-            { id: 1, name: 'Product A', price: 29.99 },
-            { id: 2, name: 'Product B', price: 49.99 },
-          ],
-        }),
-      });
-    });
-
-    const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/products');
-
-    await page.goto('/products'); // Navigation happens AFTER route is ready
-    await responsePromise; // Explicit wait for network
-
-    // Test sees mock response reliably (deterministic)
-    await expect(page.getByText('Product A')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('✅ Pattern: Wait for element state change (loading → loaded)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // Wait for loading indicator to appear (confirms load started)
-    await page.getByTestId('loading-spinner').waitFor({ state: 'visible' });
-
-    // Wait for loading indicator to disappear (confirms load complete)
-    await page.getByTestId('loading-spinner').waitFor({ state: 'detached' });
-
-    // Content now reliably visible
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('dashboard-data')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('✅ Pattern: Explicit visibility check (not just presence)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/modal-demo');
-
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Open Modal' }).click();
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Element exists but may not be visible yet
-    // await expect(page.getByTestId('modal')).toBeAttached()
-
-    // ✅ Good: Wait for visibility (accounts for animations)
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('modal')).toBeVisible();
-    await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Modal Title' })).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('❌ Anti-Pattern: waitForLoadState("networkidle") in SPAs', async ({ page }) => {
-    // ⚠️ Deprecated for SPAs (WebSocket connections never idle)
-    // await page.goto('/dashboard')
-    // await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle') // May timeout in SPAs
-
-    // ✅ Better: Wait for specific API response
-    const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/dashboard');
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-    await responsePromise;
-
-    await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard loaded')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Network-first: ALWAYS intercept before navigate (prevents race conditions)
-- State changes: Wait for loading spinner detached (explicit load completion)
-- Visibility vs presence: `toBeVisible()` accounts for animations, `toBeAttached()` doesn't
-- Avoid networkidle: Unreliable in SPAs (WebSocket, polling connections)
-- Explicit waits: Document exactly what we're waiting for
-

-
-### Example 2: Deterministic Waiting Patterns (Event-Based, Not Time-Based)
-
-**Context**: Replace all hard waits with observable event waits
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/timing/deterministic-waits.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Deterministic Waiting Patterns', () => {
-  test('waitForResponse() with URL pattern', async ({ page }) => {
-    const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/products');
-
-    await page.goto('/products');
-    await responsePromise; // Deterministic (waits for exact API call)
-
-    await expect(page.getByText('Products loaded')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('waitForResponse() with predicate function', async ({ page }) => {
-    const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse((resp) => resp.url().includes('/api/search') && resp.status() === 200);
-
-    await page.goto('/search');
-    await page.getByPlaceholder('Search').fill('laptop');
-    await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Search' }).click();
-
-    await responsePromise; // Wait for successful search response
-
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('search-results')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('waitForFunction() for custom conditions', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // Wait for custom JavaScript condition
-    await page.waitForFunction(() => {
-      const element = document.querySelector('[data-testid="user-count"]');
-      return element && parseInt(element.textContent || '0') > 0;
-    });
-
-    // User count now loaded
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('user-count')).not.toHaveText('0');
-  });
-
-  test('waitFor() element state (attached, visible, hidden, detached)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // Wait for element to be attached to DOM
-    await page.getByTestId('product-list').waitFor({ state: 'attached' });
-
-    // Wait for element to be visible (animations complete)
-    await page.getByTestId('product-list').waitFor({ state: 'visible' });
-
-    // Perform action
-    await page.getByText('Product A').click();
-
-    // Wait for modal to be hidden (close animation complete)
-    await page.getByTestId('modal').waitFor({ state: 'hidden' });
-  });
-
-  test('Cypress: cy.wait() with aliased intercepts', async () => {
-    // Cypress example (not Playwright)
-    /*
-    cy.intercept('GET', '/api/products').as('getProducts')
-    cy.visit('/products')
-    cy.wait('@getProducts') // Deterministic wait for specific request
-
-    cy.get('[data-testid="product-list"]').should('be.visible')
-    */
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `waitForResponse()`: Wait for specific API calls (URL pattern or predicate)
-- `waitForFunction()`: Wait for custom JavaScript conditions
-- `waitFor({ state })`: Wait for element state changes (attached, visible, hidden, detached)
-- Cypress `cy.wait('@alias')`: Deterministic wait for aliased intercepts
-- All waits are event-based (not time-based)
-

-
-### Example 3: Timing Anti-Patterns (What NEVER to Do)
-
-**Context**: Common timing mistakes that cause flakiness
-
-**Problem Examples**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/timing/anti-patterns.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test.describe('Timing Anti-Patterns to Avoid', () => {
-  test('❌ NEVER: page.waitForTimeout() (arbitrary delay)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Arbitrary 3-second wait (flaky)
-    // await page.waitForTimeout(3000)
-    // Problem: Might be too short (CI slower) or too long (wastes time)
-
-    // ✅ Good: Wait for observable event
-    await page.waitForResponse('**/api/dashboard');
-    await expect(page.getByText('Dashboard loaded')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('❌ NEVER: cy.wait(number) without alias (arbitrary delay)', async () => {
-    // Cypress example
-    /*
-    // ❌ Bad: Arbitrary delay
-    cy.visit('/products')
-    cy.wait(2000) // Flaky!
-
-    // ✅ Good: Wait for specific request
-    cy.intercept('GET', '/api/products').as('getProducts')
-    cy.visit('/products')
-    cy.wait('@getProducts') // Deterministic
-    */
-  });
-
-  test('❌ NEVER: Multiple hard waits in sequence (compounding delays)', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Stacked hard waits (6+ seconds wasted)
-    // await page.waitForTimeout(2000) // Wait for form
-    // await page.getByTestId('email').fill('test@example.com')
-    // await page.waitForTimeout(1000) // Wait for validation
-    // await page.getByTestId('submit').click()
-    // await page.waitForTimeout(3000) // Wait for redirect
-
-    // ✅ Good: Event-based waits (no wasted time)
-    await page.getByTestId('checkout-form').waitFor({ state: 'visible' });
-    await page.getByTestId('email').fill('test@example.com');
-    await page.waitForResponse('**/api/validate-email');
-    await page.getByTestId('submit').click();
-    await page.waitForURL('**/confirmation');
-  });
-
-  test('❌ NEVER: waitForLoadState("networkidle") in SPAs', async ({ page }) => {
-    // ❌ Bad: Unreliable in SPAs (WebSocket connections never idle)
-    // await page.goto('/dashboard')
-    // await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle') // Timeout in SPAs!
-
-    // ✅ Good: Wait for specific API responses
-    await page.goto('/dashboard');
-    await page.waitForResponse('**/api/dashboard');
-    await page.waitForResponse('**/api/user');
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('dashboard-content')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-
-  test('❌ NEVER: Sleep/setTimeout in tests', async ({ page }) => {
-    await page.goto('/products');
-
-    // ❌ Bad: Node.js sleep (blocks test thread)
-    // await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 2000))
-
-    // ✅ Good: Playwright auto-waits for element
-    await expect(page.getByText('Products loaded')).toBeVisible();
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Why These Fail**:
-
-- **Hard waits**: Arbitrary timeouts (too short → flaky, too long → slow)
-- **Stacked waits**: Compound delays (wasteful, unreliable)
-- **networkidle**: Broken in SPAs (WebSocket/polling never idle)
-- **Sleep**: Blocks execution (wastes time, doesn't solve race conditions)
-
-**Better Approach**: Use event-based waits from examples above

-
-## Async Debugging Techniques
-
-### Technique 1: Promise Chain Analysis
-
-```typescript
-test('debug async waterfall with console logs', async ({ page }) => {
-  console.log('1. Starting navigation...');
-  await page.goto('/products');
-
-  console.log('2. Waiting for API response...');
-  const response = await page.waitForResponse('**/api/products');
-  console.log('3. API responded:', response.status());
-
-  console.log('4. Waiting for UI update...');
-  await expect(page.getByText('Products loaded')).toBeVisible();
-  console.log('5. Test complete');
-
-  // Console output shows exactly where timing issue occurs
-});
-```
-
-### Technique 2: Network Waterfall Inspection (DevTools)
-
-```typescript
-test('inspect network timing with trace viewer', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Generate trace for analysis
-  // npx playwright test --trace on
-  // npx playwright show-trace trace.zip
-
-  // In trace viewer:
-  // 1. Check Network tab for API call timing
-  // 2. Identify slow requests (>1s response time)
-  // 3. Find race conditions (overlapping requests)
-  // 4. Verify request order (dependencies)
-});
-```
-
-### Technique 3: Trace Viewer for Timing Visualization
-
-```typescript
-test('use trace viewer to debug timing', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Run with trace: npx playwright test --trace on
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-  await page.getByTestId('submit').click();
-
-  // In trace viewer, examine:
-  // - Timeline: See exact timing of each action
-  // - Snapshots: Hover to see DOM state at each moment
-  // - Network: Identify slow/failed requests
-  // - Console: Check for async errors
-
-  await expect(page.getByText('Success')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-

-
-## Race Condition Checklist
-
-Before deploying tests:
-
-- [ ] **Network-first pattern**: All routes intercepted BEFORE navigation (no race conditions)
-- [ ] **Explicit waits**: Every navigation followed by `waitForResponse()` or state check
-- [ ] **No hard waits**: Zero instances of `waitForTimeout()`, `cy.wait(number)`, `sleep()`
-- [ ] **Element state waits**: Loading spinners use `waitFor({ state: 'detached' })`
-- [ ] **Visibility checks**: Use `toBeVisible()` (accounts for animations), not just `toBeAttached()`
-- [ ] **Response validation**: Wait for successful responses (`resp.ok()` or `status === 200`)
-- [ ] **Trace viewer analysis**: Generate traces to identify timing issues (network waterfall, console errors)
-- [ ] **CI/local parity**: Tests pass reliably in both environments (no timing assumptions)
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*automate` (healing timing failures), `*test-review` (detect hard wait anti-patterns), `*framework` (configure timeout standards)
-- **Related fragments**: `test-healing-patterns.md` (race condition diagnosis), `network-first.md` (interception patterns), `playwright-config.md` (timeout configuration), `visual-debugging.md` (trace viewer analysis)
-- **Tools**: Playwright Inspector (`--debug`), Trace Viewer (`--trace on`), DevTools Network tab

-# Visual Debugging and Developer Ergonomics
-
-## Principle
-
-Fast feedback loops and transparent debugging artifacts are critical for maintaining test reliability and developer confidence. Visual debugging tools (trace viewers, screenshots, videos, HAR files) turn cryptic test failures into actionable insights, reducing triage time from hours to minutes.
-
-## Rationale
-
-**The Problem**: CI failures often provide minimal context—a timeout, a selector mismatch, or a network error—forcing developers to reproduce issues locally (if they can). This wastes time and discourages test maintenance.
-
-**The Solution**: Capture rich debugging artifacts **only on failure** to balance storage costs with diagnostic value. Modern tools like Playwright Trace Viewer, Cypress Debug UI, and HAR recordings provide interactive, time-travel debugging that reveals exactly what the test saw at each step.
-
-**Why This Matters**:
-
-- Reduces failure triage time by 80-90% (visual context vs logs alone)
-- Enables debugging without local reproduction
-- Improves test maintenance confidence (clear failure root cause)
-- Catches timing/race conditions that are hard to reproduce locally
-
-## Pattern Examples
-
-### Example 1: Playwright Trace Viewer Configuration (Production Pattern)
-
-**Context**: Capture traces on first retry only (balances storage and diagnostics)
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright.config.ts
-import { defineConfig } from '@playwright/test';
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  use: {
-    // Visual debugging artifacts (space-efficient)
-    trace: 'on-first-retry', // Only when test fails once
-    screenshot: 'only-on-failure', // Not on success
-    video: 'retain-on-failure', // Delete on pass
-
-    // Context for debugging
-    baseURL: process.env.BASE_URL || 'http://localhost:3000',
-
-    // Timeout context
-    actionTimeout: 15_000, // 15s for clicks/fills
-    navigationTimeout: 30_000, // 30s for page loads
-  },
-
-  // CI-specific artifact retention
-  reporter: [
-    ['html', { outputFolder: 'playwright-report', open: 'never' }],
-    ['junit', { outputFile: 'results.xml' }],
-    ['list'], // Console output
-  ],
-
-  // Failure handling
-  retries: process.env.CI ? 2 : 0, // Retry in CI to capture trace
-  workers: process.env.CI ? 1 : undefined,
-});
-```
-
-**Opening and Using Trace Viewer**:
-
-```bash
-# After test failure in CI, download trace artifact
-# Then open locally:
-npx playwright show-trace path/to/trace.zip
-
-# Or serve trace viewer:
-npx playwright show-report
-```
-
-**Key Features to Use in Trace Viewer**:
-
-1. **Timeline**: See each action (click, navigate, assertion) with timing
-2. **Snapshots**: Hover over timeline to see DOM state at that moment
-3. **Network Tab**: Inspect all API calls, headers, payloads, timing
-4. **Console Tab**: View console.log/error messages
-5. **Source Tab**: See test code with execution markers
-6. **Metadata**: Browser, OS, test duration, screenshots
-
-**Why This Works**:
-
-- `on-first-retry` avoids capturing traces for flaky passes (saves storage)
-- Screenshots + video give visual context without trace overhead
-- Interactive timeline makes timing issues obvious (race conditions, slow API)
-
----
-
-### Example 2: HAR File Recording for Network Debugging
-
-**Context**: Capture all network activity for reproducible API debugging
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout-with-har.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-import path from 'path';
-
-test.describe('Checkout Flow with HAR Recording', () => {
-  test('should complete payment with full network capture', async ({ page, context }) => {
-    // Start HAR recording BEFORE navigation
-    await context.routeFromHAR(path.join(__dirname, '../fixtures/checkout.har'), {
-      url: '**/api/**', // Only capture API calls
-      update: true, // Update HAR if file exists
-    });
-
-    await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-    // Interact with page
-    await page.getByTestId('payment-method').selectOption('credit-card');
-    await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4242424242424242');
-    await page.getByTestId('submit-payment').click();
-
-    // Wait for payment confirmation
-    await expect(page.getByTestId('success-message')).toBeVisible();
-
-    // HAR file saved to fixtures/checkout.har
-    // Contains all network requests/responses for replay
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Using HAR for Deterministic Mocking**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout-replay-har.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-import path from 'path';
-
-test('should replay checkout flow from HAR', async ({ page, context }) => {
-  // Replay network from HAR (no real API calls)
-  await context.routeFromHAR(path.join(__dirname, '../fixtures/checkout.har'), {
-    url: '**/api/**',
-    update: false, // Read-only mode
-  });
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-  // Same test, but network responses come from HAR file
-  await page.getByTestId('payment-method').selectOption('credit-card');
-  await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4242424242424242');
-  await page.getByTestId('submit-payment').click();
-
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('success-message')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- **`update: true`** records new HAR or updates existing (for flaky API debugging)
-- **`update: false`** replays from HAR (deterministic, no real API)
-- Filter by URL pattern (`**/api/**`) to avoid capturing static assets
-- HAR files are human-readable JSON (easy to inspect/modify)
-
-**When to Use HAR**:
-
-- Debugging flaky tests caused by API timing/responses
-- Creating deterministic mocks for integration tests
-- Analyzing third-party API behavior (Stripe, Auth0)
-- Reproducing production issues locally (record HAR in staging)
-
----
-
-### Example 3: Custom Artifact Capture (Console Logs + Network on Failure)
-
-**Context**: Capture additional debugging context automatically on test failure
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/fixtures/debug-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import fs from 'fs';
-import path from 'path';
-
-type DebugFixture = {
-  captureDebugArtifacts: () => Promise<void>;
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<DebugFixture>({
-  captureDebugArtifacts: async ({ page }, use, testInfo) => {
-    const consoleLogs: string[] = [];
-    const networkRequests: Array<{ url: string; status: number; method: string }> = [];
-
-    // Capture console messages
-    page.on('console', (msg) => {
-      consoleLogs.push(`[${msg.type()}] ${msg.text()}`);
-    });
-
-    // Capture network requests
-    page.on('request', (request) => {
-      networkRequests.push({
-        url: request.url(),
-        method: request.method(),
-        status: 0, // Will be updated on response
-      });
-    });
-
-    page.on('response', (response) => {
-      const req = networkRequests.find((r) => r.url === response.url());
-      if (req) req.status = response.status();
-    });
-
-    await use(async () => {
-      // This function can be called manually in tests
-      // But it also runs automatically on failure via afterEach
-    });
-
-    // After test completes, save artifacts if failed
-    if (testInfo.status !== testInfo.expectedStatus) {
-      const artifactDir = path.join(testInfo.outputDir, 'debug-artifacts');
-      fs.mkdirSync(artifactDir, { recursive: true });
-
-      // Save console logs
-      fs.writeFileSync(path.join(artifactDir, 'console.log'), consoleLogs.join('\n'), 'utf-8');
-
-      // Save network summary
-      fs.writeFileSync(path.join(artifactDir, 'network.json'), JSON.stringify(networkRequests, null, 2), 'utf-8');
-
-      console.log(`Debug artifacts saved to: ${artifactDir}`);
-    }
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Usage in Tests**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/payment-with-debug.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '../support/fixtures/debug-fixture';
-
-test('payment flow captures debug artifacts on failure', async ({ page, captureDebugArtifacts }) => {
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-  // Test will automatically capture console + network on failure
-  await page.getByTestId('submit-payment').click();
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('success-message')).toBeVisible({ timeout: 5000 });
-
-  // If this fails, console.log and network.json saved automatically
-});
-```
-
-**CI Integration (GitHub Actions)**:
-
-```yaml
-# .github/workflows/e2e.yml
-name: E2E Tests with Artifacts
-on: [push, pull_request]
-
-jobs:
-  test:
-    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
-        with:
-          node-version-file: '.nvmrc'
-
-      - name: Install dependencies
-        run: npm ci
-
-      - name: Run Playwright tests
-        run: npm run test:e2e
-        continue-on-error: true # Capture artifacts even on failure
-
-      - name: Upload test artifacts on failure
-        if: failure()
-        uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
-        with:
-          name: playwright-artifacts
-          path: |
-            test-results/
-            playwright-report/
-          retention-days: 30
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Fixtures automatically capture context without polluting test code
-- Only saves artifacts on failure (storage-efficient)
-- CI uploads artifacts for post-mortem analysis
-- `continue-on-error: true` ensures artifact upload even when tests fail
-

-### Example 4: Accessibility Debugging Integration (axe-core in Trace Viewer)
-
-**Context**: Catch accessibility regressions during visual debugging
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// playwright/support/fixtures/a11y-fixture.ts
-import { test as base } from '@playwright/test';
-import AxeBuilder from '@axe-core/playwright';
-
-type A11yFixture = {
-  checkA11y: () => Promise<void>;
-};
-
-export const test = base.extend<A11yFixture>({
-  checkA11y: async ({ page }, use) => {
-    await use(async () => {
-      // Run axe accessibility scan
-      const results = await new AxeBuilder({ page }).analyze();
-
-      // Attach results to test report (visible in trace viewer)
-      if (results.violations.length > 0) {
-        console.log(`Found ${results.violations.length} accessibility violations:`);
-        results.violations.forEach((violation) => {
-          console.log(`- [${violation.impact}] ${violation.id}: ${violation.description}`);
-          console.log(`  Help: ${violation.helpUrl}`);
-        });
-
-        throw new Error(`Accessibility violations found: ${results.violations.length}`);
-      }
-    });
-  },
-});
-```
-
-**Usage with Visual Debugging**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout-a11y.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '../support/fixtures/a11y-fixture';
-
-test('checkout page is accessible', async ({ page, checkA11y }) => {
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-  // Verify page loaded
-  await expect(page.getByRole('heading', { name: 'Checkout' })).toBeVisible();
-
-  // Run accessibility check
-  await checkA11y();
-
-  // If violations found, test fails and trace captures:
-  // - Screenshot showing the problematic element
-  // - Console log with violation details
-  // - Network tab showing any failed resource loads
-});
-```
-
-**Trace Viewer Benefits**:
-
-- **Screenshot shows visual context** of accessibility issue (contrast, missing labels)
-- **Console tab shows axe-core violations** with impact level and helpUrl
-- **DOM snapshot** allows inspecting ARIA attributes at failure point
-- **Network tab** reveals if icon fonts or images failed (common a11y issue)
-
-**Cypress Equivalent**:
-
-```javascript
-// cypress/support/commands.ts
-import 'cypress-axe';
-
-Cypress.Commands.add('checkA11y', (context = null, options = {}) => {
-  cy.injectAxe(); // Inject axe-core
-  cy.checkA11y(context, options, (violations) => {
-    if (violations.length) {
-      cy.task('log', `Found ${violations.length} accessibility violations`);
-      violations.forEach((violation) => {
-        cy.task('log', `- [${violation.impact}] ${violation.id}: ${violation.description}`);
-      });
-    }
-  });
-});
-
-// tests/e2e/checkout-a11y.cy.ts
-describe('Checkout Accessibility', () => {
-  it('should have no a11y violations', () => {
-    cy.visit('/checkout');
-    cy.injectAxe();
-    cy.checkA11y();
-    // On failure, Cypress UI shows:
-    // - Screenshot of page
-    // - Console log with violation details
-    // - Network tab with API calls
-  });
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- Accessibility checks integrate seamlessly with visual debugging
-- Violations are captured in trace viewer/Cypress UI automatically
-- Provides actionable links (helpUrl) to fix issues
-- Screenshots show visual context (contrast, layout)

-### Example 5: Time-Travel Debugging Workflow (Playwright Inspector)
-
-**Context**: Debug tests interactively with step-through execution
-
-**Implementation**:
-
-```typescript
-// tests/e2e/checkout-debug.spec.ts
-import { test, expect } from '@playwright/test';
-
-test('debug checkout flow step-by-step', async ({ page }) => {
-  // Set breakpoint by uncommenting this:
-  // await page.pause()
-
-  await page.goto('/checkout');
-
-  // Use Playwright Inspector to:
-  // 1. Step through each action
-  // 2. Inspect DOM at each step
-  // 3. View network calls per action
-  // 4. Take screenshots manually
-
-  await page.getByTestId('payment-method').selectOption('credit-card');
-
-  // Pause here to inspect form state
-  // await page.pause()
-
-  await page.getByTestId('card-number').fill('4242424242424242');
-  await page.getByTestId('submit-payment').click();
-
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('success-message')).toBeVisible();
-});
-```
-
-**Running with Inspector**:
-
-```bash
-# Open Playwright Inspector (GUI debugger)
-npx playwright test --debug
-
-# Or use headed mode with slowMo
-npx playwright test --headed --slow-mo=1000
-
-# Debug specific test
-npx playwright test checkout-debug.spec.ts --debug
-
-# Set environment variable for persistent debugging
-PWDEBUG=1 npx playwright test
-```
-
-**Inspector Features**:
-
-1. **Step-through execution**: Click "Next" to execute one action at a time
-2. **DOM inspector**: Hover over elements to see selectors
-3. **Network panel**: See API calls with timing
-4. **Console panel**: View console.log output
-5. **Pick locator**: Click element in browser to get selector
-6. **Record mode**: Record interactions to generate test code
-
-**Common Debugging Patterns**:
-
-```typescript
-// Pattern 1: Debug selector issues
-test('debug selector', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-  await page.pause(); // Inspector opens
-
-  // In Inspector console, test selectors:
-  // page.getByTestId('user-menu') ✅
-  // page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Profile' }) ✅
-  // page.locator('.btn-primary') ❌ (fragile)
-});
-
-// Pattern 2: Debug timing issues
-test('debug network timing', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/dashboard');
-
-  // Set up network listener BEFORE interaction
-  const responsePromise = page.waitForResponse('**/api/users');
-  await page.getByTestId('load-users').click();
-
-  await page.pause(); // Check network panel for timing
-
-  const response = await responsePromise;
-  expect(response.status()).toBe(200);
-});
-
-// Pattern 3: Debug state changes
-test('debug state mutation', async ({ page }) => {
-  await page.goto('/cart');
-
-  // Check initial state
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('cart-count')).toHaveText('0');
-
-  await page.pause(); // Inspect DOM
-
-  await page.getByTestId('add-to-cart').click();
-
-  await page.pause(); // Inspect DOM again (compare state)
-
-  await expect(page.getByTestId('cart-count')).toHaveText('1');
-});
-```
-
-**Key Points**:
-
-- `page.pause()` opens Inspector at that exact moment
-- Inspector shows DOM state, network activity, console at pause point
-- "Pick locator" feature helps find robust selectors
-- Record mode generates test code from manual interactions

-## Visual Debugging Checklist
-
-Before deploying tests to CI, ensure:
-
-- [ ] **Artifact configuration**: `trace: 'on-first-retry'`, `screenshot: 'only-on-failure'`, `video: 'retain-on-failure'`
-- [ ] **CI artifact upload**: GitHub Actions/GitLab CI configured to upload `test-results/` and `playwright-report/`
-- [ ] **HAR recording**: Set up for flaky API tests (record once, replay deterministically)
-- [ ] **Custom debug fixtures**: Console logs + network summary captured on failure
-- [ ] **Accessibility integration**: axe-core violations visible in trace viewer
-- [ ] **Trace viewer docs**: README explains how to open traces locally (`npx playwright show-trace`)
-- [ ] **Inspector workflow**: Document `--debug` flag for interactive debugging
-- [ ] **Storage optimization**: Artifacts deleted after 30 days (CI retention policy)
-
-## Integration Points
-
-- **Used in workflows**: `*framework` (initial setup), `*ci` (artifact upload), `*test-review` (validate artifact config)
-- **Related fragments**: `playwright-config.md` (artifact configuration), `ci-burn-in.md` (CI artifact upload), `test-quality.md` (debugging best practices)
-- **Tools**: Playwright Trace Viewer, Cypress Debug UI, axe-core, HAR files

-# Step 1: Product Brief Initialization
-
-## STEP GOAL:
-
-Initialize the product brief workflow by detecting continuation state and setting up the document structure for collaborative product discovery.
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-### Universal Rules:
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
-- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-
-### Role Reinforcement:
-
-- ✅ You are a product-focused Business Analyst facilitator
-- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and persona, continue to use those while playing this new role
-- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
-- ✅ You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings domain expertise and product vision
-- ✅ Maintain collaborative discovery tone throughout
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Focus only on initialization and setup - no content generation yet
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to look ahead to future steps or assume knowledge from them
-- 💬 Approach: Systematic setup with clear reporting to user
-- 📋 Detect existing workflow state and handle continuation properly
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis of current state before taking any action
-- 💾 Initialize document structure and update frontmatter appropriately
-- 📖 Set up frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1]` before loading next step
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until user selects 'C' (Continue)
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Available context: Variables from workflow.md are available in memory
-- Focus: Workflow initialization and document setup only
-- Limits: Don't assume knowledge from other steps or create content yet
-- Dependencies: Configuration loaded from workflow.md initialization
-
-## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
-
-### 1. Check for Existing Workflow State
-
-First, check if the output document already exists:
-
-**Workflow State Detection:**
-
-- Look for file `{outputFile}`
-- If exists, read the complete file including frontmatter
-- If not exists, this is a fresh workflow
-
-### 2. Handle Continuation (If Document Exists)
-
-If the document exists and has frontmatter with `stepsCompleted`:
-
-**Continuation Protocol:**
-
-- **STOP immediately** and load `{workflow_path}/steps/step-01b-continue.md`
-- Do not proceed with any initialization tasks
-- Let step-01b handle all continuation logic
-- This is an auto-proceed situation - no user choice needed
-
-### 3. Fresh Workflow Setup (If No Document)
-
-If no document exists or no `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter:
-
-#### A. Input Document Discovery
-
-load context documents using smart discovery. Documents can be in the following locations:
-- {planning_artifacts}/**
-- {output_folder}/**
-- {product_knowledge}/**
-- docs/**
-
-Also - when searching - documents can be a single markdown file, or a folder with an index and multiple files. For Example, if searching for `*foo*.md` and not found, also search for a folder called *foo*/index.md (which indicates sharded content)
-
-Try to discover the following:
-- Brainstorming Reports (`*brainstorming*.md`)
-- Research Documents (`*research*.md`)
-- Project Documentation (generally multiple documents might be found for this in the `{product_knowledge}` or `docs` folder.)
-- Project Context (`**/project-context.md`)
-
-<critical>Confirm what you have found with the user, along with asking if the user wants to provide anything else. Only after this confirmation will you proceed to follow the loading rules</critical>
-
-**Loading Rules:**
-
-- Load ALL discovered files completely that the user confirmed or provided (no offset/limit)
-- If there is a project context, whatever is relevant should try to be biased in the remainder of this whole workflow process
-- For sharded folders, load ALL files to get complete picture, using the index first to potentially know the potential of each document
-- index.md is a guide to what's relevant whenever available
-- Track all successfully loaded files in frontmatter `inputDocuments` array
-
-#### B. Create Initial Document
-
-**Document Setup:**
-
-- Copy the template from `{productBriefTemplate}` to `{outputFile}`, and update the frontmatter fields
-
-#### C. Present Initialization Results
-
-**Setup Report to User:**
-"Welcome {{user_name}}! I've set up your product brief workspace for {{project_name}}.
-
-**Document Setup:**
-
-- Created: `{outputFile}` from template
-- Initialized frontmatter with workflow state
-
-**Input Documents Discovered:**
-
-- Research: {number of research files loaded or "None found"}
-- Brainstorming: {number of brainstorming files loaded or "None found"}
-- Project docs: {number of project files loaded or "None found"}
-- Project Context: {number of project context files loaded or "None found"}
-
-**Files loaded:** {list of specific file names or "No additional documents found"}
-
-Do you have any other documents you'd like me to include, or shall we continue to the next step?"
-
-### 4. Present MENU OPTIONS
-
-Display: "**Proceeding to product vision discovery...**"
-
-#### Menu Handling Logic:
-
-- After setup report is presented, immediately load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
-
-#### EXECUTION RULES:
-
-- This is an initialization step with auto-proceed after setup completion
-- Proceed directly to next step after document setup and reporting
-
-## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
-
-ONLY WHEN [setup completion is achieved and frontmatter properly updated], will you then load and read fully `{nextStepFile}` to execute and begin product vision discovery.
-
----
-
-## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
-
-### ✅ SUCCESS:
-
-- Existing workflow detected and properly handed off to step-01b
-- Fresh workflow initialized with template and proper frontmatter
-- Input documents discovered and loaded using sharded-first logic
-- All discovered files tracked in frontmatter `inputDocuments`
-- Menu presented and user input handled correctly
-- Frontmatter updated with `stepsCompleted: [1]` before proceeding
-
-### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
-
-- Proceeding with fresh initialization when existing workflow exists
-- Not updating frontmatter with discovered input documents
-- Creating document without proper template structure
-- Not checking sharded folders first before whole files
-- Not reporting discovered documents to user clearly
-- Proceeding without user selecting 'C' (Continue)
-
-**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-

-- ✅ You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings domain expertise and product vision
-- ✅ Maintain collaborative continuation tone throughout
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Focus only on understanding where we left off and continuing appropriately
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to modify content completed in previous steps
-- 💬 Approach: Systematic state analysis with clear progress reporting
-- 📋 Resume workflow from exact point where it was interrupted
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis of current state before taking any action
-- 💾 Keep existing frontmatter `stepsCompleted` values
-- 📖 Only load documents that were already tracked in `inputDocuments`
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to discover new input documents during continuation
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Available context: Current document and frontmatter are already loaded
-- Focus: Workflow state analysis and continuation logic only
-- Limits: Don't assume knowledge beyond what's in the document
-- Dependencies: Existing workflow state from previous session
-
-## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
-
-### 1. Analyze Current State
-
-**State Assessment:**
-Review the frontmatter to understand:
-
-- `stepsCompleted`: Which steps are already done
-- `lastStep`: The most recently completed step number
-- `inputDocuments`: What context was already loaded
-- All other frontmatter variables
-
-### 2. Restore Context Documents
-
-**Context Reloading:**
-
-- For each document in `inputDocuments`, load the complete file
-- This ensures you have full context for continuation
-- Don't discover new documents - only reload what was previously processed
-- Maintain the same context as when workflow was interrupted
-
-### 3. Present Current Progress
-
-**Progress Report to User:**
-"Welcome back {{user_name}}! I'm resuming our product brief collaboration for {{project_name}}.
-
-**Current Progress:**
-
-- Steps completed: {stepsCompleted}
-- Last worked on: Step {lastStep}
-- Context documents available: {len(inputDocuments)} files
-
-**Document Status:**
-
-- Current product brief is ready with all completed sections
-- Ready to continue from where we left off
-
-Does this look right, or do you want to make any adjustments before we proceed?"
-
-### 4. Determine Continuation Path
-
-**Next Step Logic:**
-Based on `lastStep` value, determine which step to load next:
-
-- If `lastStep = 1` → Load `./step-02-vision.md`
-- If `lastStep = 2` → Load `./step-03-users.md`
-- If `lastStep = 3` → Load `./step-04-metrics.md`
-- Continue this pattern for all steps
-- If `lastStep = 6` → Workflow already complete
-
-### 5. Handle Workflow Completion
-
-**If workflow already complete (`lastStep = 6`):**
-"Great news! It looks like we've already completed the product brief workflow for {{project_name}}.
-
-The final document is ready at `{outputFile}` with all sections completed through step 6.
-
-Would you like me to:
-
-- Review the completed product brief with you
-- Suggest next workflow steps (like PRD creation)
-- Start a new product brief revision
-
-What would be most helpful?"
-
-### 6. Present MENU OPTIONS
-
-**If workflow not complete:**
-Display: "Ready to continue with Step {nextStepNumber}: {nextStepTitle}?
-
-**Select an Option:** [C] Continue to Step {nextStepNumber}"
-
-#### Menu Handling Logic:
-
-- IF C: Load, read entire file, then execute the appropriate next step file based on `lastStep`
-- IF Any other comments or queries: respond and redisplay menu
-
-#### EXECUTION RULES:
-
-- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
-- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
-- User can chat or ask questions about current progress
-
-## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
-
-ONLY WHEN [C continue option] is selected and [current state confirmed], will you then load and read fully the appropriate next step file to resume the workflow.
-
----
-
-## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
-
-### ✅ SUCCESS:
-
-- All previous input documents successfully reloaded
-- Current workflow state accurately analyzed and presented
-- User confirms understanding of progress before continuation
-- Correct next step identified and prepared for loading
-- Proper continuation path determined based on `lastStep`
-
-### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
-
-- Discovering new input documents instead of reloading existing ones
-- Modifying content from already completed steps
-- Loading wrong next step based on `lastStep` value
-- Proceeding without user confirmation of current state
-- Not maintaining context consistency from previous session
-
-**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

-## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
-
-### 1. Begin Success Metrics Discovery
-
-**Opening Exploration:**
-"Now that we know who {{project_name}} serves and what problem it solves, let's define what success looks like.
-
-**Success Discovery:**
-
-- How will we know we're succeeding for our users?
-- What would make users say 'this was worth it'?
-- What metrics show we're creating real value?
-
-Let's start with the user perspective."
-
-### 2. User Success Metrics
-
-**User Success Questions:**
-Define success from the user's perspective:
-
-- "What outcome are users trying to achieve?"
-- "How will they know the product is working for them?"
-- "What's the moment where they realize this is solving their problem?"
-- "What behaviors indicate users are getting value?"
-
-**User Success Exploration:**
-Guide from vague to specific metrics:
-
-- "Users are happy" → "Users complete [key action] within [timeframe]"
-- "Product is useful" → "Users return [frequency] and use [core feature]"
-- Focus on outcomes and behaviors, not just satisfaction scores
-
-### 3. Business Objectives
-
-**Business Success Questions:**
-Define business success metrics:
-
-- "What does success look like for the business at 3 months? 12 months?"
-- "Are we measuring revenue, user growth, engagement, something else?"
-- "What business metrics would make you say 'this is working'?"
-- "How does this product contribute to broader company goals?"
-
-**Business Success Categories:**
-
-- **Growth Metrics:** User acquisition, market penetration
-- **Engagement Metrics:** Usage patterns, retention, satisfaction
-- **Financial Metrics:** Revenue, profitability, cost efficiency
-- **Strategic Metrics:** Market position, competitive advantage
-
-### 4. Key Performance Indicators
-
-**KPI Development Process:**
-Define specific, measurable KPIs:
-
-- Transform objectives into measurable indicators
-- Ensure each KPI has a clear measurement method
-- Define targets and timeframes where appropriate
-- Include leading indicators that predict success
-
-**KPI Examples:**
-
-- User acquisition: "X new users per month"
-- Engagement: "Y% of users complete core journey weekly"
-- Business impact: "$Z in cost savings or revenue generation"
-
-### 5. Connect Metrics to Strategy
-
-**Strategic Alignment:**
-Ensure metrics align with product vision and user needs:
-
-- Connect each metric back to the product vision
-- Ensure user success metrics drive business success
-- Validate that metrics measure what truly matters
-- Avoid vanity metrics that don't drive decisions

-- Limits: Balance user needs with implementation feasibility
-- Dependencies: Product vision, user personas, and success metrics from previous steps must be complete
-
-## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
-
-### 1. Begin Scope Definition
-
-**Opening Exploration:**
-"Now that we understand what {{project_name}} does, who it serves, and how we'll measure success, let's define what we need to build first.
-
-**Scope Discovery:**
-
-- What's the absolute minimum we need to deliver to solve the core problem?
-- What features would make users say 'this solves my problem'?
-- How do we balance ambition with getting something valuable to users quickly?
-
-Let's start with the MVP mindset: what's the smallest version that creates real value?"
-
-### 2. MVP Core Features Definition
-
-**MVP Feature Questions:**
-Define essential features for minimum viable product:
-
-- "What's the core functionality that must work?"
-- "Which features directly address the main problem we're solving?"
-- "What would users consider 'incomplete' if it was missing?"
-- "What features create the 'aha!' moment we discussed earlier?"
-
-**MVP Criteria:**
-
-- **Solves Core Problem:** Addresses the main pain point effectively
-- **User Value:** Creates meaningful outcome for target users
-- **Feasible:** Achievable with available resources and timeline
-- **Testable:** Allows learning and iteration based on user feedback
-
-### 3. Out of Scope Boundaries
-
-**Out of Scope Exploration:**
-Define what explicitly won't be in MVP:
-
-- "What features would be nice to have but aren't essential?"
-- "What functionality could wait for version 2.0?"
-- "What are we intentionally saying 'no' to for now?"
-- "How do we communicate these boundaries to stakeholders?"
-
-**Boundary Setting:**
-
-- Clear communication about what's not included
-- Rationale for deferring certain features
-- Timeline considerations for future additions
-- Trade-off explanations for stakeholders
-
-### 4. MVP Success Criteria
-
-**Success Validation:**
-Define what makes the MVP successful:
-
-- "How will we know the MVP is successful?"
-- "What metrics will indicate we should proceed beyond MVP?"
-- "What user feedback signals validate our approach?"
-- "What's the decision point for scaling beyond MVP?"
-
-**Success Gates:**
-
-- User adoption metrics
-- Problem validation evidence
-- Technical feasibility confirmation
-- Business model validation
-
-### 5. Future Vision Exploration
-
-**Vision Questions:**
-Define the longer-term product vision:
-
-- "If this is wildly successful, what does it become in 2-3 years?"
-- "What capabilities would we add with more resources?"
-- "How does the MVP evolve into the full product vision?"
-- "What markets or user segments could we expand to?"
-
-**Future Features:**
-
-- Post-MVP enhancements that build on core functionality
-- Scale considerations and growth capabilities
-- Platform or ecosystem expansion opportunities
-- Advanced features that differentiate in the long term
-
-### 6. Generate MVP Scope Content
-
-**Content to Append:**
-Prepare the following structure for document append:
-
-```markdown
-## MVP Scope
-
-### Core Features
-
-[Core features content based on conversation]

-# Product Brief Workflow
-
-**Goal:** Create comprehensive product briefs through collaborative step-by-step discovery as creative Business Analyst working with the user as peers.
-
-**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a product-focused Business Analyst collaborating with an expert peer. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings domain expertise and product vision. Work together as equals.
-
----
-
-## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
-
-This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution:
-
-### Core Principles
-
-- **Micro-file Design**: Each step is a self contained instruction file that is a part of an overall workflow that must be followed exactly
-- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only the current step file is in memory - never load future step files until told to do so
-- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
-- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
-- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
-
-### Step Processing Rules
-
-1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
-2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
-3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
-4. **CHECK CONTINUATION**: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
-5. **SAVE STATE**: Update `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
-6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, load, read entire file, then execute the next step file
-
-### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
-
-- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
-- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
-- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
-- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
-- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
-- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
-- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
-
----
-
-## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
-
-### 1. Configuration Loading
-
-Load and read full config from {project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml and resolve:
-
-- `project_name`, `output_folder`, `planning_artifacts`, `user_name`, `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `user_skill_level`
-
-### 2. First Step EXECUTION
-
-Load, read the full file and then execute `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/workflows/1-analysis/create-product-brief/steps/step-01-init.md` to begin the workflow.

-# Market Research Step 1: Market Research Initialization
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate research content in init step
-- ✅ ALWAYS confirm understanding of user's research goals
-- 📋 YOU ARE A MARKET RESEARCH FACILITATOR, not content generator
-- 💬 FOCUS on clarifying scope and approach
-- 🔍 NO WEB RESEARCH in init - that's for later steps
-- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete research
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-

-# Research Workflow
-
-**Goal:** Conduct comprehensive, exhaustive research across multiple domains using current web data and verified sources to produce complete research documents with compelling narratives and proper citations.
-
-**Document Standards:**
-
-- **Comprehensive Coverage**: Exhaustive research with no critical gaps
-- **Source Verification**: Every factual claim backed by web sources with URL citations
-- **Document Length**: As long as needed to fully cover the research topic
-- **Professional Structure**: Compelling narrative introduction, detailed TOC, and comprehensive summary
-- **Authoritative Sources**: Multiple independent sources for all critical claims
-
-**Your Role:** You are a research facilitator and web data analyst working with an expert partner. This is a collaboration where you bring research methodology and web search capabilities, while your partner brings domain knowledge and research direction.
-
-**Final Deliverable**: A complete research document that serves as an authoritative reference on the research topic with:
-
-- Compelling narrative introduction
-- Comprehensive table of contents
-- Detailed research sections with proper citations
-- Executive summary and conclusions
-
-## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
-
-This uses **micro-file architecture** with **routing-based discovery**:
-
-- Each research type has its own step folder
-- Step 01 discovers research type and routes to appropriate sub-workflow
-- Sequential progression within each research type
-- Document state tracked in output frontmatter
-
-## INITIALIZATION
-
-### Configuration Loading
-
-Load config from `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml` and resolve:
-
-- `project_name`, `output_folder`, , `planning_artifacts`, `user_name`
-- `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `user_skill_level`
-- `date` as a system-generated value
-
-### Paths
-
-- `installed_path` = `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/workflows/1-analysis/research`
-- `template_path` = `{installed_path}/research.template.md`
-- `default_output_file` = `{planning_artifacts}/research/{{research_type}}-{{topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` (dynamic based on research type)
-
-## PREREQUISITE
-
-**⛔ Web search required.** If unavailable, abort and tell the user.
-
-## RESEARCH BEHAVIOR
-
-### Web Research Standards
-
-- **Current Data Only**: Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
-- **Source Verification**: Require citations for all factual claims
-- **Anti-Hallucination Protocol**: Never present information without verified sources
-- **Multiple Sources**: Require at least 2 independent sources for critical claims
-- **Conflict Resolution**: Present conflicting views and note discrepancies
-- **Confidence Levels**: Flag uncertain data with [High/Medium/Low Confidence]
-
-### Source Quality Standards
-
-- **Distinguish Clearly**: Facts (from sources) vs Analysis (interpretation) vs Speculation
-- **URL Citation**: Always include source URLs when presenting web search data
-- **Critical Claims**: Market size, growth rates, competitive data need verification
-- **Fact Checking**: Apply fact-checking to critical data points
-
-## Implementation Instructions
-
-Execute research type discovery and routing:
-
-### Research Type Discovery
-
-**Your Role:** You are a research facilitator and web data analyst working with an expert partner. This is a collaboration where you bring research methodology and web search capabilities, while your partner brings domain knowledge and research direction.
-
-**Research Standards:**
-
-- **Anti-Hallucination Protocol**: Never present information without verified sources
-- **Current Data Only**: Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
-- **Source Citation**: Always include URLs for factual claims from web searches
-- **Multiple Sources**: Require 2+ independent sources for critical claims
-- **Conflict Resolution**: Present conflicting views and note discrepancies
-- **Confidence Levels**: Flag uncertain data with [High/Medium/Low Confidence]
-
-### Collaborative Research Discovery
-
-"Welcome {{user_name}}! I'm excited to work with you as your research partner. I bring web research capabilities with rigorous source verification, while you bring the domain expertise and research direction.
-
-**Let me help you clarify what you'd like to research.**
-
-**First, tell me: What specific topic, problem, or area do you want to research?**
-
-For example:
-
-- 'The electric vehicle market in Europe'
-- 'Cloud migration strategies for healthcare'
-- 'AI implementation in financial services'
-- 'Sustainable packaging regulations'
-- 'Or anything else you have in mind...'
-
-### Topic Exploration and Clarification
-
-Based on the user's initial topic, explore and refine the research scope:
-
-#### Topic Clarification Questions:
-
-1. **Core Topic**: "What exactly about [topic] are you most interested in?"
-2. **Research Goals**: "What do you hope to achieve with this research?"
-3. **Scope**: "Should we focus broadly or dive deep into specific aspects?"
-4. **Timeline**: "Are you looking at current state, historical context, or future trends?"
-5. **Application**: "How will you use this research? (product development, strategy, academic, etc.)"
-
-#### Context Building:
-
-- **Initial Input**: User provides topic or research interest
-- **Collaborative Refinement**: Work together to clarify scope and objectives
-- **Goal Alignment**: Ensure research direction matches user needs
-- **Research Boundaries**: Establish clear focus areas and deliverables
-
-### Research Type Identification
-
-After understanding the research topic and goals, identify the most appropriate research approach:
-
-**Research Type Options:**
-
-1. **Market Research** - Market size, growth, competition, customer insights
-   _Best for: Understanding market dynamics, customer behavior, competitive landscape_
-
-2. **Domain Research** - Industry analysis, regulations, technology trends in specific domain
-   _Best for: Understanding industry context, regulatory environment, ecosystem_
-
-3. **Technical Research** - Technology evaluation, architecture decisions, implementation approaches
-   _Best for: Technical feasibility, technology selection, implementation strategies_
-
-**Recommendation**: Based on [topic] and [goals], I recommend [suggested research type] because [specific rationale].
-
-**What type of research would work best for your needs?**
-
-### Research Type Routing
-
-<critical>Based on user selection, route to appropriate sub-workflow with the discovered topic using the following IF block sets of instructions. YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`</critical>
-
-#### If Market Research:
-
-- Set `research_type = "market"`
-- Set `research_topic = [discovered topic from discussion]`
-- Create the starter output file: `{planning_artifacts}/research/market-{{research_topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` with exact copy of the ./research.template.md contents
-- Load: `./market-steps/step-01-init.md` with topic context
-
-#### If Domain Research:
-
-- Set `research_type = "domain"`
-- Set `research_topic = [discovered topic from discussion]`
-- Create the starter output file: `{planning_artifacts}/research/domain-{{research_topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` with exact copy of the ./research.template.md contents
-- Load: `./domain-steps/step-01-init.md` with topic context
-
-#### If Technical Research:
-
-- Set `research_type = "technical"`
-- Set `research_topic = [discovered topic from discussion]`
-- Create the starter output file: `{planning_artifacts}/research/technical-{{research_topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` with exact copy of the ./research.template.md contents
-- Load: `./technical-steps/step-01-init.md` with topic context
-
-**Important**: The discovered topic from the collaborative discussion should be passed to the research initialization steps, so they don't need to ask "What do you want to research?" again - they can focus on refining the scope for their specific research type.
-
-**Note:** All research workflows require web search for current data and source verification.

-# Step 1: UX Design Workflow Initialization
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-
-- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
-- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between UX facilitator and stakeholder
-- 📋 YOU ARE A UX FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-- 💬 FOCUS on initialization and setup only - don't look ahead to future steps
-- 🚪 DETECT existing workflow state and handle continuation properly
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
-- 💾 Initialize document and update frontmatter
-- 📖 Set up frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1]` before loading next step
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until setup is complete
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Variables from workflow.md are available in memory
-- Previous context = what's in output document + frontmatter
-- Don't assume knowledge from other steps
-- Input document discovery happens in this step
-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Initialize the UX design workflow by detecting continuation state and setting up the design specification document.
-
-## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE:
-
-### 1. Check for Existing Workflow
-
-First, check if the output document already exists:
-
-- Look for file at `{planning_artifacts}/*ux-design-specification*.md`
-- If exists, read the complete file including frontmatter
-- If not exists, this is a fresh workflow
-
-### 2. Handle Continuation (If Document Exists)
-
-If the document exists and has frontmatter with `stepsCompleted`:
-
-- **STOP here** and load `./step-01b-continue.md` immediately
-- Do not proceed with any initialization tasks
-- Let step-01b handle the continuation logic
-
-### 3. Fresh Workflow Setup (If No Document)
-
-If no document exists or no `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter:
-
-#### A. Input Document Discovery
-
-Discover and load context documents using smart discovery. Documents can be in the following locations:
-- {planning_artifacts}/**
-- {output_folder}/**
-- {product_knowledge}/**
-- docs/**
-
-Also - when searching - documents can be a single markdown file, or a folder with an index and multiple files. For Example, if searching for `*foo*.md` and not found, also search for a folder called *foo*/index.md (which indicates sharded content)
-
-Try to discover the following:
-- Product Brief (`*brief*.md`)
-- Research Documents (`*prd*.md`)
-- Project Documentation (generally multiple documents might be found for this in the `{product_knowledge}` or `docs` folder.)
-- Project Context (`**/project-context.md`)
-
-<critical>Confirm what you have found with the user, along with asking if the user wants to provide anything else. Only after this confirmation will you proceed to follow the loading rules</critical>
-
-**Loading Rules:**
-
-- Load ALL discovered files completely that the user confirmed or provided (no offset/limit)
-- If there is a project context, whatever is relevant should try to be biased in the remainder of this whole workflow process
-- For sharded folders, load ALL files to get complete picture, using the index first to potentially know the potential of each document
-- index.md is a guide to what's relevant whenever available
-- Track all successfully loaded files in frontmatter `inputDocuments` array
-
-#### B. Create Initial Document
-
-Copy the template from `{installed_path}/ux-design-template.md` to `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md`
-Initialize frontmatter in the template.
-
-#### C. Complete Initialization and Report
-
-Complete setup and report to user:
-
-**Document Setup:**
-
-- Created: `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md` from template
-- Initialized frontmatter with workflow state
-
-**Input Documents Discovered:**
-Report what was found:
-"Welcome {{user_name}}! I've set up your UX design workspace for {{project_name}}.
-
-**Documents Found:**
-
-- PRD: {number of PRD files loaded or "None found"}
-- Product brief: {number of brief files loaded or "None found"}
-- Other context: {number of other files loaded or "None found"}
-
-**Files loaded:** {list of specific file names or "No additional documents found"}
-
-Do you have any other documents you'd like me to include, or shall we continue to the next step?
-
-[C] Continue to UX discovery"
-
-## NEXT STEP:
-
-After user selects [C] to continue, ensure the file `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md` has been created and saved, and then load `./step-02-discovery.md` to begin the UX discovery phase.
-
-Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-02 until output file has been updated and user explicitly selects [C] to continue!
-
-## SUCCESS METRICS:
-
-✅ Existing workflow detected and handed off to step-01b correctly
-✅ Fresh workflow initialized with template and frontmatter
-✅ Input documents discovered and loaded using sharded-first logic
-✅ All discovered files tracked in frontmatter `inputDocuments`
-✅ User confirmed document setup and can proceed
-
-## FAILURE MODES:
-
-❌ Proceeding with fresh initialization when existing workflow exists
-❌ Not updating frontmatter with discovered input documents
-❌ Creating document without proper template
-❌ Not checking sharded folders first before whole files
-❌ Not reporting what documents were found to user
-
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols

-# Step 1B: UX Design Workflow Continuation
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-
-- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
-- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between UX facilitator and stakeholder
-- 📋 YOU ARE A UX FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-- 💬 FOCUS on understanding where we left off and continuing appropriately
-- 🚪 RESUME workflow from exact point where it was interrupted
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis of current state before taking action
-- 💾 Keep existing frontmatter `stepsCompleted` values
-- 📖 Only load documents that were already tracked in `inputDocuments`
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to modify content completed in previous steps
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Current document and frontmatter are already loaded
-- Previous context = complete document + existing frontmatter
-- Input documents listed in frontmatter were already processed
-- Last completed step = `lastStep` value from frontmatter
-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Resume the UX design workflow from where it was left off, ensuring smooth continuation.
-
-## CONTINUATION SEQUENCE:
-
-### 1. Analyze Current State
-
-Review the frontmatter to understand:
-
-- `stepsCompleted`: Which steps are already done
-- `lastStep`: The most recently completed step number
-- `inputDocuments`: What context was already loaded
-- All other frontmatter variables
-
-### 2. Load All Input Documents
-
-Reload the context documents listed in `inputDocuments`:
-
-- For each document in `inputDocuments`, load the complete file
-- This ensures you have full context for continuation
-- Don't discover new documents - only reload what was previously processed
-
-### 3. Summarize Current Progress
-
-Welcome the user back and provide context:
-"Welcome back {{user_name}}! I'm resuming our UX design collaboration for {{project_name}}.
-
-**Current Progress:**
-
-- Steps completed: {stepsCompleted}
-- Last worked on: Step {lastStep}
-- Context documents available: {len(inputDocuments)} files
-- Current UX design specification is ready with all completed sections
-
-**Document Status:**
-
-- Current UX design document is ready with all completed sections
-- Ready to continue from where we left off
-
-Does this look right, or do you want to make any adjustments before we proceed?"
-
-### 4. Determine Next Step
-
-Based on `lastStep` value, determine which step to load next:
-
-- If `lastStep = 1` → Load `./step-02-discovery.md`
-- If `lastStep = 2` → Load `./step-03-core-experience.md`
-- If `lastStep = 3` → Load `./step-04-emotional-response.md`
-- Continue this pattern for all steps
-- If `lastStep` indicates final step → Workflow already complete
-
-### 5. Present Continuation Options
-
-After presenting current progress, ask:
-"Ready to continue with Step {nextStepNumber}: {nextStepTitle}?
-
-[C] Continue to Step {nextStepNumber}"
-
-## SUCCESS METRICS:
-
-✅ All previous input documents successfully reloaded
-✅ Current workflow state accurately analyzed and presented
-✅ User confirms understanding of progress
-✅ Correct next step identified and prepared for loading
-
-## FAILURE MODES:
-
-❌ Discovering new input documents instead of reloading existing ones
-❌ Modifying content from already completed steps
-❌ Loading wrong next step based on `lastStep` value
-❌ Proceeding without user confirmation of current state
-
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols
-
-## WORKFLOW ALREADY COMPLETE?
-
-If `lastStep` indicates the final step is completed:
-"Great news! It looks like we've already completed the UX design workflow for {{project_name}}.
-
-The final UX design specification is ready at {output_folder}/ux-design-specification.md with all sections completed through step {finalStepNumber}.
-
-The complete UX design includes visual foundations, user flows, and design specifications ready for implementation.
-
-Would you like me to:
-
-- Review the completed UX design specification with you
-- Suggest next workflow steps (like wireframe generation or architecture)
-- Start a new UX design revision
-
-What would be most helpful?"
-
-## NEXT STEP:
-
-After user confirms they're ready to continue, load the appropriate next step file based on the `lastStep` value from frontmatter.
-
-Remember: Do NOT load the next step until user explicitly selects [C] to continue!

-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Understand the project context, target users, and what makes this product special from a UX perspective.
-
-## PROJECT DISCOVERY SEQUENCE:
-
-### 1. Review Loaded Context
-
-Start by analyzing what we know from the loaded documents:
-"Based on the project documentation we have loaded, let me confirm what I'm understanding about {{project_name}}.
-
-**From the documents:**
-{summary of key insights from loaded PRD, briefs, and other context documents}
-
-**Target Users:**
-{summary of user information from loaded documents}
-
-**Key Features/Goals:**
-{summary of main features and goals from loaded documents}
-
-Does this match your understanding? Are there any corrections or additions you'd like to make?"
-
-### 2. Fill Context Gaps (If no documents or gaps exist)
-
-If no documents were loaded or key information is missing:
-"Since we don't have complete documentation, let's start with the essentials:
-
-**What are you building?** (Describe your product in 1-2 sentences)
-
-**Who is this for?** (Describe your ideal user or target audience)
-
-**What makes this special or different?** (What's the unique value proposition?)
-
-**What's the main thing users will do with this?** (Core user action or goal)"
-
-### 3. Explore User Context Deeper
-
-Dive into user understanding:
-"Let me understand your users better to inform the UX design:
-
-**User Context Questions:**
-
-- What problem are users trying to solve?
-- What frustrates them with current solutions?
-- What would make them say 'this is exactly what I needed'?
-- How tech-savvy are your target users?
-- What devices will they use most?
-- When/where will they use this product?"
-
-### 4. Identify UX Design Challenges
-
-Surface the key UX challenges to address:
-"From what we've discussed, I'm seeing some key UX design considerations:
-
-**Design Challenges:**
-
-- [Identify 2-3 key UX challenges based on project type and user needs]
-- [Note any platform-specific considerations]
-- [Highlight any complex user flows or interactions]
-
-**Design Opportunities:**
-
-- [Identify 2-3 areas where great UX could create competitive advantage]
-- [Note any opportunities for innovative UX patterns]
-
-Does this capture the key UX considerations we need to address?"
-
-### 5. Generate Project Understanding Content
-
-Prepare the content to append to the document:
-
-#### Content Structure:
-
-When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
-
-```markdown
-## Executive Summary
-
-### Project Vision
-
-[Project vision summary based on conversation]
-
-### Target Users
-
-[Target user descriptions based on conversation]
-
-### Key Design Challenges
-
-[Key UX challenges identified based on conversation]
-
-### Design Opportunities
-
-[Design opportunities identified based on conversation]
-```
-
-### 6. Present Content and Menu
-
-Show the generated project understanding content and present choices:
-"I've documented our understanding of {{project_name}} from a UX perspective. This will guide all our design decisions moving forward.
-
-**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
-
-[Show the complete markdown content from step 5]
-
-**What would you like to do?**
-[C] Continue - Save this to the document and move to core experience definition"
-
-### 7. Handle Menu Selection
-
-#### If 'C' (Continue):
-
-- Append the final content to `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md`
-- Update frontmatter: `stepsCompleted: [1, 2]`
-- Load `./step-03-core-experience.md`
-
-## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
-
-When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document. Only after the content is saved to document, load `./step-03-core-experience.md` and execute the instructions.
-
-## SUCCESS METRICS:
-
-✅ All available context documents reviewed and synthesized
-✅ Project vision clearly articulated
-✅ Target users well understood
-✅ Key UX challenges identified
-✅ Design opportunities surfaced
-✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
-✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
-
-## FAILURE MODES:
-
-❌ Not reviewing loaded context documents thoroughly
-❌ Making assumptions about users without asking
-❌ Missing key UX challenges that will impact design
-❌ Not identifying design opportunities
-❌ Generating generic content without real project insight
-❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
-❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'
-
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file

-- If we nail one interaction, everything else follows - what is it?
-
-Think about the core loop or primary action that defines your product's value."
-
-### 2. Explore Platform Requirements
-
-Determine where and how users will interact:
-"Let's define the platform context for {{project_name}}:
-
-**Platform Questions:**
-
-- Web, mobile app, desktop, or multiple platforms?
-- Will this be primarily touch-based or mouse/keyboard?
-- Any specific platform requirements or constraints?
-- Do we need to consider offline functionality?
-- Any device-specific capabilities we should leverage?"
-
-### 3. Identify Effortless Interactions
-
-Surface what should feel magical or completely seamless:
-"**Effortless Experience Design:**
-
-- What user actions should feel completely natural and require zero thought?
-- Where do users currently struggle with similar products?
-- What interaction, if made effortless, would create delight?
-- What should happen automatically without user intervention?
-- Where can we eliminate steps that competitors require?"
-
-### 4. Define Critical Success Moments
-
-Identify the moments that determine success or failure:
-"**Critical Success Moments:**
-
-- What's the moment where users realize 'this is better'?
-- When does the user feel successful or accomplished?
-- What interaction, if failed, would ruin the experience?
-- What are the make-or-break user flows?
-- Where does first-time user success happen?"
-
-### 5. Synthesize Experience Principles
-
-Extract guiding principles from the conversation:
-"Based on our discussion, I'm hearing these core experience principles for {{project_name}}:
-
-**Experience Principles:**
-
-- [Principle 1 based on core action focus]
-- [Principle 2 based on effortless interactions]
-- [Principle 3 based on platform considerations]
-- [Principle 4 based on critical success moments]
-
-These principles will guide all our UX decisions. Do these capture what's most important?"
-
-### 6. Generate Core Experience Content
-
-Prepare the content to append to the document:
-
-#### Content Structure:
-
-When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
-
-```markdown
-## Core User Experience
-
-### Defining Experience
-
-[Core experience definition based on conversation]
-
-### Platform Strategy
-
-[Platform requirements and decisions based on conversation]
-
-### Effortless Interactions
-
-[Effortless interaction areas identified based on conversation]
-
-### Critical Success Moments
-
-[Critical success moments defined based on conversation]
-
-### Experience Principles
-
-[Guiding principles for UX decisions based on conversation]
-```
-
-### 7. Present Content and Menu
-
-Show the generated core experience content and present choices:
-"I've defined the core user experience for {{project_name}} based on our conversation. This establishes the foundation for all our UX design decisions.
-
-**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
-
-[Show the complete markdown content from step 6]
-
-**What would you like to do?**
-[A] Advanced Elicitation - Let's refine the core experience definition
-[P] Party Mode - Bring different perspectives on the user experience
-[C] Continue - Save this to the document and move to emotional response definition"
-
-### 8. Handle Menu Selection
-
-#### If 'A' (Advanced Elicitation):
-
-- Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml with the current core experience content
-- Process the enhanced experience insights that come back
-- Ask user: "Accept these improvements to the core experience definition? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content with improvements, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'P' (Party Mode):
-
-- Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md with the current core experience definition
-- Process the collaborative experience improvements that come back
-- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the core experience definition? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content with improvements, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'C' (Continue):
-
-- Append the final content to `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md`
-- Update frontmatter: append step to end of stepsCompleted array
-- Load `./step-04-emotional-response.md`
-
-## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
-
-When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document using the structure from step 6.
-
-## SUCCESS METRICS:
-
-✅ Core user action clearly identified and defined
-✅ Platform requirements thoroughly explored
-✅ Effortless interaction areas identified
-✅ Critical success moments mapped out
-✅ Experience principles established as guiding framework
-✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
-✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
-
-## FAILURE MODES:
-
-❌ Missing the core user action that defines the product
-❌ Not properly considering platform requirements
-❌ Overlooking what should be effortless for users
-❌ Not identifying critical make-or-break interactions
-❌ Experience principles too generic or not actionable
-❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
-❌ Appending content without user selecting 'C'
-
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols
-
-## NEXT STEP:
-
-After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load `./step-04-emotional-response.md` to define desired emotional responses.
-
-Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-04 until user explicitly selects 'C' from the A/P/C menu and content is saved!

-# Step 4: Desired Emotional Response
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-
-- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete decisions
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
-- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between UX facilitator and stakeholder
-- 📋 YOU ARE A UX FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-- 💬 FOCUS on defining desired emotional responses and user feelings
-- 🎯 COLLABORATIVE discovery, not assumption-based design
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
-- ⚠️ Present A/P/C menu after generating emotional response content
-- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
-- 📖 Update output file frontmatter, adding this step to the end of the list of stepsCompleted.
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
-
-## COLLABORATION MENUS (A/P/C):
-
-This step will generate content and present choices:
-
-- **A (Advanced Elicitation)**: Use discovery protocols to develop deeper emotional insights
-- **P (Party Mode)**: Bring multiple perspectives to define optimal emotional responses
-- **C (Continue)**: Save the content to the document and proceed to next step
-
-## PROTOCOL INTEGRATION:
-
-- When 'A' selected: Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml
-- When 'P' selected: Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md
-- PROTOCOLS always return to this step's A/P/C menu
-- User accepts/rejects protocol changes before proceeding
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Current document and frontmatter from previous steps are available
-- Core experience definition from step 3 informs emotional response
-- No additional data files needed for this step
-- Focus on user feelings and emotional design goals
-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Define the desired emotional responses users should feel when using the product.
-
-## EMOTIONAL RESPONSE DISCOVERY SEQUENCE:
-
-### 1. Explore Core Emotional Goals
-
-Start by understanding the emotional objectives:
-"Now let's think about how {{project_name}} should make users feel.
-
-**Emotional Response Questions:**
-
-- What should users FEEL when using this product?
-- What emotion would make them tell a friend about this?
-- How should users feel after accomplishing their primary goal?
-- What feeling differentiates this from competitors?
-
-Common emotional goals: Empowered and in control? Delighted and surprised? Efficient and productive? Creative and inspired? Calm and focused? Connected and engaged?"
-
-### 2. Identify Emotional Journey Mapping
-
-Explore feelings at different stages:
-"**Emotional Journey Considerations:**
-
-- How should users feel when they first discover the product?
-- What emotion during the core experience/action?
-- How should they feel after completing their task?
-- What if something goes wrong - what emotional response do we want?
-- How should they feel when returning to use it again?"
-
-### 3. Define Micro-Emotions
-
-Surface subtle but important emotional states:
-"**Micro-Emotions to Consider:**
-
-- Confidence vs. Confusion
-- Trust vs. Skepticism
-- Excitement vs. Anxiety
-- Accomplishment vs. Frustration
-- Delight vs. Satisfaction
-- Belonging vs. Isolation
-
-Which of these emotional states are most critical for your product's success?"
-
-### 4. Connect Emotions to UX Decisions
-
-Link feelings to design implications:
-"**Design Implications:**
-
-- If we want users to feel [emotional state], what UX choices support this?
-- What interactions might create negative emotions we want to avoid?
-- Where can we add moments of delight or surprise?
-- How do we build trust and confidence through design?
-
-**Emotion-Design Connections:**
-
-- [Emotion 1] → [UX design approach]
-- [Emotion 2] → [UX design approach]
-- [Emotion 3] → [UX design approach]"
-
-### 5. Validate Emotional Goals
-
-Check if emotional goals align with product vision:
-"Let me make sure I understand the emotional vision for {{project_name}}:
-
-**Primary Emotional Goal:** [Summarize main emotional response]
-**Secondary Feelings:** [List supporting emotional states]
-**Emotions to Avoid:** [List negative emotions to prevent]
-
-Does this capture the emotional experience you want to create? Any adjustments needed?"
-
-### 6. Generate Emotional Response Content
-
-Prepare the content to append to the document:
-
-#### Content Structure:
-
-When saving to document, append these Level 2 and Level 3 sections:
-
-```markdown

-
-### 7. Present Content and Menu
-
-Show the generated emotional response content and present choices:
-"I've defined the desired emotional responses for {{project_name}}. These emotional goals will guide our design decisions to create the right user experience.
-
-**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
-
-[Show the complete markdown content from step 6]
-
-**What would you like to do?**
-[A] Advanced Elicitation - Let's refine the emotional response definition
-[P] Party Mode - Bring different perspectives on user emotional needs
-[C] Continue - Save this to the document and move to inspiration analysis"
-
-### 8. Handle Menu Selection
-
-#### If 'A' (Advanced Elicitation):
-
-- Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml with the current emotional response content
-- Process the enhanced emotional insights that come back
-- Ask user: "Accept these improvements to the emotional response definition? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content with improvements, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'P' (Party Mode):
-
-- Execute {project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md with the current emotional response definition
-- Process the collaborative emotional insights that come back
-- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the emotional response definition? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content with improvements, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'C' (Continue):
-
-- Append the final content to `{planning_artifacts}/ux-design-specification.md`
-- Update frontmatter: append step to end of stepsCompleted array
-- Load `./step-05-inspiration.md`
