Skill instructions
Rolling Playwright Python The goal of a roll is to move the driver pin in DRIVERVERSION to a new release, port every public API change introduced upstream during that interval, and suppress the rest, so that ./scripts/updateapi.sh runs clean and the test suite still passes. The previous human-facing summary lives in ../../../ROLLING.md. This skill is the operational playbook — read it end to end before starting. Mental model The Python port is hand-written code in playwright/impl/, plus a generator (scripts/generate.py, scripts/documentationprovider.py) that: 1. introspects the Python impl classes via inspect, 2. emits typed wrapper classes into playwright/{async,sync}api/generated.py, and 3. diffs the introspected surface against the Playwright api.json (generated from the upstream docs — see step 2). Anything in api.json that is missing or differently typed in impl/ causes generation to fail. Three resolutions: - PORT — the new API is intended for Python (no langs.only filter, or lan
