🎞️ ci: Fix Playwright ffmpeg Install Hang and Cache the Download (#15065)
Every Playwright job spent a flat 90s on `npx playwright install ffmpeg`,
and none of them ended up with a usable ffmpeg.

The 2.3MB download finishes in under a second; extraction then hangs until
`timeout -k 10 90` reaps it (exit 124, masked by `continue-on-error`). That
is a Node 24.16.0 readable-stream change (nodejs/node#62557) colliding with
yauzl/fd-slicer never firing `close` after EOF, which hangs extract-zip.
It leaves a truncated `ffmpeg-linux` — 5,055,201 bytes against the zip's
declared 5,101,056, segfaulting on exec — and no INSTALLATION_COMPLETE
marker, so Playwright treated ffmpeg as uninstalled. `video: 'on-first-retry'`
has therefore never worked in CI, and every first retry of a flaky test died
in browserContext.newPage: exactly the failure the step existed to prevent.

Upstream fixed it in Playwright 1.60.0 (microsoft/playwright#40747) and Node
reverted it in 24.18.0 (nodejs/node#63834). Node 24.16.0 is pinned in 17
places including the Dockerfiles, so bump Playwright instead — it is a dev
dependency, and `^1.56.1` already permitted 1.62.1; only the lockfile pinned
it. Staying at or above 1.62.1 also avoids the tsconfig-resolution
regressions in 1.62.0.

Caching alone could not have fixed this: a cold cache still hangs, and what
would have been cached is the corrupt binary. So the ffmpeg download is now
restored from cache keyed on the resolved playwright-core version, the
install is skipped outright on a hit, and the cache is only saved once the
binary is verified to actually execute — a partial extraction can never be
promoted into a cache that every later job restores.

Per job: 90s to ~0s on a hit, ~2s on a miss.

🚀 What's New in v0.8.8-rc1

  • Agent run control: Interrupt or steer an Agent mid-run, queue follow-up messages, and reclaim, edit, or escalate pending steers.
  • Human-in-the-loop Agents: Agents stream question progress, ask up to four related questions in one form, pause for input or tool approval, and resume.
  • Unified Agent Builder: A redesigned Tools marketplace brings together Skills, MCP, Code Interpreter, orchestration, Programmatic Tool Calling, model-spec controls, and per-tool background and intent settings.
  • Readable Agent activity: Generated activity-group headers, parent phase summaries, and live tool intent labels make long reasoning and tool runs easier to scan.
  • Code Interpreter workflows: Code and shell tools can run in the background, sandbox images return as viewable artifacts, and highly experimental stateful sessions can reuse prewarmed conversation workspaces.
  • Agent extensibility: Experimental Agent Plugins can bundle deployment Skills, MCP servers, and opt-in command hooks, while explicit subagents initialize only when selected.
  • Memory, context, and identity: Agents can manage memory with optional per-agent isolation, expose support contacts safely, and show a more faithful Context Usage gauge.
  • Sharing and files: Shared conversations show a badge and update at a stable URL, while signed-in viewers can continue them as personal copies.
  • Artifact workflows: Open previews fullscreen, work with PowerPoint .potx templates across upload, search, and code execution, upload shell scripts across common MIME variants, export Mermaid diagrams as SVG or PNG, and download original Office files from the artifact panel.
  • Models and reasoning: Added GPT-5.6 with Responses API reasoning controls, Claude Opus 5 and Sonnet 5, Gemini 3.7 and 3.6 Flash, and Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite.
  • Langfuse observability: Configure encrypted Langfuse connections in-app, let authorized admins open sampled sessions directly, optionally fan out traces by tenant, and suppress central export per run.
  • Administration and security: Delegate config sections, encrypt registered secrets, enforce SSRF checks for speech, OCR, and web tools, and generate unique temporary credentials when secrets are blank.
  • Messages and navigation: Right-aligned user turns, unified multi-part editing, full-message copy, a dock-style message rail, virtualized search, smooth streaming, and faster Agent startup.
  • Streaming and tool reliability: Adaptive provider smoothing, Redis delta batching, dynamic MCP tool refresh, parsed MCP response media types, runtime OAuth recovery, and Agent stream circuit breakers improve long-running workflows.
  • Deployment and reliability: Added configurable HTTP timeouts, Amazon DocumentDB 5.0+ support, low-noise Redis and browser observability, and a rolling-upgrade-safe generation protocol.
