# CI browser. The pinned, blocking CI in ci.yml stays the source of truth; this is
# signal only.
#
# Chromium-only: Playwright ships its own patched Firefox that tracks Firefox *Stable*
# and cannot drive a branded/beta Firefox (there is no `firefox` channel, only
# `chrome*`/`msedge*`), so there is no Firefox-Beta lane to add here. Firefox is covered
# by the pinned e2e in ci.yml plus deliberate Playwright-version bumps.
#
# Non-blocking by construction: it runs on a schedule + manual dispatch, never on
# pull_request, so it is never a required status context and can never red-wall a merge.
# A failure here is a heads-up to investigate, not a gate.

# Playwright's `chrome-beta` channel then drives this system binary.
