This PR introduces a reusable composite action for Playwright setup to
reduce duplication across workflows.
## Changes
- Created `.github/actions/setup-playwright/action.yml` composite action
that:
- Detects or uses provided Playwright version
- Caches Playwright browsers with intelligent cache keys
- Installs browsers only when cache miss occurs
- Installs OS dependencies when cache hit occurs
## Technical Details
- **Important:** The composite action requires `shell: bash` for all
`run` steps as per [GitHub Actions requirements for composite
actions](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/creating-actions/creating-a-composite-action#creating-an-action-metadata-file).
This is a mandatory field for composite actions, unlike regular workflow
steps.
- Updated workflow paths to account for repository checkout locations
(some workflows checkout to subdirectories like `ComfyUI_frontend/`)
- Uses conditional caching to avoid redundant browser installations
## Benefits
- Reduces code duplication across 6 workflow files
- Centralizes Playwright caching logic
- Consistent browser setup across all workflows
- Easier maintenance and updates
- Faster CI runs through intelligent caching
## Affected Workflows
- `.github/workflows/test-ui.yaml` (2 uses)
- `.github/workflows/i18n-custom-nodes.yaml`
- `.github/workflows/i18n-node-defs.yaml`
- `.github/workflows/i18n.yaml`
- `.github/workflows/test-browser-exp.yaml`

## Summary
- Removed the optional `ref: master` parameter from the ComfyUI checkout
step in the setup-frontend action
- The ref parameter defaults to the repository's default branch when
omitted
## Details
The `ref: master` specification in
`.github/actions/setup-frontend/action.yml` is unnecessary since GitHub
Actions will automatically use the repository's default branch when the
ref parameter is not provided.
This simplifies the configuration and makes it more maintainable, as the
action will automatically follow any future changes to the default
branch name.
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify that GitHub Actions workflows using this composite action
still work correctly
- [ ] Confirm ComfyUI is checked out properly in CI/CD pipelines

## Summary
- Adds a local composite action at `.github/actions/setup-frontend` to
replace the external `Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend_setup_action`
- Follows the same pattern as PR #5754 (sno-playwright-composite-action)
for consistency
- Updates workflows to use the new local composite action
## Motivation
Similar to the Playwright composite action, this change:
- Reduces external dependencies on separate action repositories
- Provides better control over versioning and updates
- Maintains consistency with other composite actions in the repository
- Simplifies maintenance by keeping all CI/CD logic in one place
## Changes
### New composite action: `.github/actions/setup-frontend/action.yml`
Direct mirror of the external action with the same 2 inputs:
- `extra_server_params`: Additional parameters to pass to ComfyUI server
- `devtools_ref`: Reference to use for ComfyUI_devtools
The action:
1. Checks out ComfyUI, ComfyUI_frontend, and ComfyUI_devtools
2. Sets up pnpm, Node.js (LTS), and Python (3.10)
3. Installs all dependencies (Python packages, npm packages)
4. Builds the frontend
5. Starts the ComfyUI server with the built frontend
### Updated workflows:
- `.github/workflows/i18n.yaml`
- `.github/workflows/i18n-node-defs.yaml`
- `.github/workflows/test-browser-exp.yaml`
All workflows now use the local composite action instead of
`Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend_setup_action@v3`
## Test plan
- [ ] Verify all updated workflows pass CI tests
- [ ] Confirm the composite action works in all scenarios
- [ ] Check that build and server startup work as expected
