## Summary
- Replace 83 `as unknown as` double casts with safer alternatives across
33 files
- Use `as Partial<X> as X` pattern where TypeScript allows it
- Create/reuse factory functions from `litegraphTestUtils.ts` for mock
objects
- Widen `getWorkflowDataFromFile` return type to include `ComfyMetadata`
directly
- Reduce total `as unknown as` count from ~153 to 71
The remaining 71 occurrences are genuinely necessary due to cross-schema
casts, generic variance, missing index signatures, Float64Array-to-tuple
conversions, and DOM type incompatibilities.
## Test plan
- [x] `pnpm typecheck` passes
- [x] `pnpm lint` passes
- [x] All affected unit tests pass

## Summary
- add commands for setting search aliases and description when in
subgraph
- in future we can add these fields to the dialog when publishing a
subgraph
- map workflow extra metadata on save/load from from/to subgraph node to
allow access via `canvas.subgraph.extra`
## Changes
**What**:
- new core commands for Comfy.Subgraph.SetSearchAliases &
Comfy.Subgraph.SetDescription to be called when in a subgraph context
- update Publish command to allow command metadata arg for name
- update test executeCommand to allow passing metadata arg
## Review Focus
- When saving a subgraph, the outer workflow "wrapper" is created at the
point of publishing. So unlike a normal workflow `extra` property that
is available at any point, for a subgraph this is not accessible.
To workaround this, the `extra` property that exists on the inner
subgraph node is copied to the top level on save, and restored on load
so extra properties can be set via `canvas.subgraph.extra`.
- I have kept the existing naming format matching `BlueprintDescription`
for `BlueprintSearchAliases` but i'm not sure if the description was
ever used before

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Set subgraph search aliases (comma-separated) and descriptions;
aliases enable discovery by alternative names.
* Publish subgraphs using a provided name.
* Node definitions now support search aliases so nodes can be found by
alternate names.
* UI strings added for entering descriptions and search aliases.
* **Tests**
* Added end-to-end and unit tests covering aliases, descriptions, search
behavior, publishing, and persistence.

## Summary
Major refactoring of browser tests to improve reliability,
maintainability, and type safety.
## Changes
### Test Infrastructure Decomposition
- Decomposed `ComfyPage.ts` (~1000 lines) into focused helpers:
- `CanvasHelper`, `DebugHelper`, `SubgraphHelper`,
`NodeOperationsHelper`
- `SettingsHelper`, `WorkflowHelper`, `ClipboardHelper`,
`KeyboardHelper`
- Created `ContextMenu` page object, `BaseDialog` base class, and
`BottomPanel` page object
- Extracted `DefaultGraphPositions` constants
### Locator Stability
- Added `data-testid` attributes to Vue components (sidebar, dialogs,
node library)
- Created centralized `selectors.ts` with test ID constants
- Replaced fragile CSS selectors (`.nth()`, `:nth-child()`) with
`getByTestId`/`getByRole`
### Performance & Reliability
- Removed `setTimeout` anti-patterns (replaced with `waitForFunction`)
- Replaced `waitForTimeout` with retrying assertions
- Replaced hardcoded coordinates with computed `NodeReference` positions
- Enforced LF line endings for all text files
### Type Safety
- Enabled `no-explicit-any` lint rule for browser_tests via oxlint
- Purged `as any` casts from browser_tests
- Added Window type augmentation for standardized window access
- Added proper type annotations throughout
### Bug Fixes
- Restored `ExtensionManager` API contract
- Removed test-only settings from production schema
- Fixed flaky selectors and missing test setup
## Testing
- All browser tests pass
- Typecheck passes

## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Tests**
* Overhauled browser E2E test infrastructure with many new
helpers/fixtures, updated test APIs, and CI test container image bumped
for consistency.
* **Chores**
* Standardized line endings and applied stricter lint rules for browser
tests; workspace dependency version updated.
* **Documentation**
* Updated Playwright and TypeScript testing guidance and test-run
commands.
* **UI**
* Added stable data-testids to multiple components to improve
testability.
