The merged view interleaves every *.log in time order across the
whole leg, filename-prefixed per line (green .file span), and syncs
like any other tab: the video highlights the right file's line at the
right moment, clicking a line seeks the video. Untimed lines inherit
their file's previous timestamp so intra-file order survives the
sort; the merged tab is first and the default.
Verified in a real browser with an interleaved synthetic zip (two
logs, overlapping timelines): time-order merge, prefixes, follow-sync
at t=22 highlighting the app-update.log line, click-to-seek to t=30.
Windows transcripts were ZERO bytes: ts-prefix.ps1 formatted with
{0:D2}, but Floor() returns a double and the D specifier is
integer-only - it threw per line, and under the driver's relaxed EAP
every line errored into the void. {0:00} fixes it (custom numeric
format works on doubles). Reproduced the exact pipeline locally
(empty file + Format specifier invalid), verified the fix produces
prefixed merged stdout+stderr with exit code intact. That is also
why the log timeline never auto-synced: there was nothing in the
files to sync.
The GitHub artifact URL 307s to /suites/... server-side and strips
the ?zip= query param. The player now reads the zip URL from a
#zip= HASH param (client-side, survives the redirect) with ?zip=
as fallback; the hash path was verified in a real browser against a
real leg zip (auto-fetch + boot).
Per ethie's design, one player artifact for the whole run: new
leg-player job uploads playback.html (archive:false) before the
matrix legs, the report job needs it, and each ran cell gets TWO
links - 📼 to the player with #zip=<that leg's logs zip> and ⬇️ to
the raw zip. Per-leg player uploads removed from all three run
workflows.
Each leg uploads playback.html as a single-file artifact (archive:
false) before the driver runs, so it exists even on failure. The
results chart now links every leg that RAN (pass or fail, not skip)
to its player with ?zip= pointing at that leg's logs artifact.
Leg<->artifact mapping: the generator mints a leg_id per matrix entry
(sanitized matrix name, exported legId()), every run workflow names
its artifacts install-e2e-{player,logs}-<leg-id>, and the report job
feeds the run's artifact name->id list to the results renderer, which
rebuilds the leg id from the parsed job name. GitHub does not link
jobs to artifacts, so the deterministic name is the join key.
Empirical finding: GitHub artifact downloads are auth-gated (the
download URL 307s to /suites/... which is 404 anonymous), so a
locally-opened player page cannot fetch the zip cross-origin. The
player now degrades gracefully: ?zip= fetch failure renders a real
download link for the zip (a normal click carries the user's session)
plus a drag-and-drop / file-picker path, and no-param opens as a pure
drop target. Verified in a real browser against a real artifact URL.
Verified: generator emits leg_id, results renderer emits
✅/❌ [📼](...?zip=...) only on ran cells, npm run check PASS,
install tests 36/36, strict tsc PASS, actionlint x4 PASS.
A static single-file player (tests/install/e2e-assets/playback.html):
?zip=<artifact zip url> unzips in-browser (JSZip), plays the screen
recording with a timer pinned top-left, and renders every *.log with
video<->log sync: the video follows the driver's transcript, clicking
a log line seeks the video. A sync-offset slider aligns the recording
start (ffmpeg comes up first) with the driver's relative clock.
Sync axis: drivers now prefix every transcript line with [+MM:SS]
relative to driver start (ts-prefix.sh / ts-prefix.ps1, pipe-safe
under pipefail / relaxed EAP). Browsers cannot play Matroska, so each
leg remuxes recording.mkv -> recording.mp4 (-c copy, no re-encode)
before the artifact upload, on all three OSes.
Verified end-to-end in a real browser against a generated artifact
zip: zip load, mp4 playback, timer, tab switching, follow-sync at
t=6/t=12, click-to-seek, autoplay policy (expected NotAllowedError on
synthetic play; real clicks fine).
Also fixes the shim fail message's dead variable ( ->
observed_git_url) in both posix drivers.
