## Summary
This PR removes unsafe type assertions ("as unknown as Type") from test
files and improves type safety across the codebase.
### Key Changes
#### Type Safety Improvements
- Removed all instances of "as unknown as" patterns from test files
- Used proper factory functions from litegraphTestUtils instead of
custom mocks
- Made incomplete mocks explicit using Partial<T> types
- Fixed DialogStore mocking with proper interface exports
- Improved type safety with satisfies operator where applicable
#### App Parameter Removal
- **Removed the unused `app` parameter from all ComfyExtension interface
methods**
- The app parameter was always undefined at runtime as it was never
passed from invokeExtensions
- Affected methods: init, setup, addCustomNodeDefs,
beforeRegisterNodeDef, beforeRegisterVueAppNodeDefs,
registerCustomNodes, loadedGraphNode, nodeCreated, beforeConfigureGraph,
afterConfigureGraph
##### Breaking Change Analysis
Verified via Sourcegraph that this is NOT a breaking change:
- Searched all 10 affected methods across GitHub repositories
- Only one external repository
([drawthingsai/draw-things-comfyui](https://github.com/drawthingsai/draw-things-comfyui))
declares the app parameter in their extension methods
- That repository never actually uses the app parameter (just declares
it in the function signature)
- All other repositories already omit the app parameter
- Search queries used:
- [init method
search](https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+repo:%5Egithub%5C.com/.*+lang:typescript+%22init%28app%22+-repo:Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend&patternType=standard)
- [setup method
search](https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+repo:%5Egithub%5C.com/.*+lang:typescript+%22setup%28app%22+-repo:Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend&patternType=standard)
- Similar searches for all 10 methods confirmed no usage

## Summary
- Eliminated all `as unknown as` type assertions from Group 3 test files
- Created reusable factory functions in `litegraphTestUtils.ts` for
better type safety
- Improved test mock composition using `Partial` types with single `as`
casts
- Fixed LGraphNode tests to use proper API methods instead of direct
property assignment
## Changes by Category
### New Factory Functions in `litegraphTestUtils.ts`
- `createMockLGraphNodeWithArrayBoundingRect()` - Creates LGraphNode
with proper boundingRect for position tests
- `createMockFileList()` - Creates mock FileList with proper structure
including `item()` method
### Test File Improvements
**Composables:**
- `useLoad3dDrag.test.ts` - Used `createMockFileList` factory
- `useLoad3dViewer.test.ts` - Created local `MockSceneManager` interface
with proper typing
**LiteGraph Tests:**
- `LGraphNode.test.ts` - Replaced direct `boundingRect` assignments with
`updateArea()` calls
- `LinkConnector.test.ts` - Improved mock composition with proper
Partial types
- `ToOutputRenderLink.test.ts` - Added `MockEvents` interface for
type-safe event mocking
- Updated integration and core tests to use new factory functions
**Extension Tests:**
- `contextMenuFilter.test.ts` - Updated menu factories to accept
`(IContextMenuValue | null)[]`
## Type Safety Improvements
- Zero `as unknown as` instances (was: multiple instances across 17
files)
- All mocks use proper `Partial<T>` composition with single `as T` casts
- Improved IntelliSense and type checking in test files
- Centralized mock creation reduces duplication and improves
maintainability
## Test Plan
- ✅ All TypeScript type checks pass
- ✅ ESLint passes with no new errors
- ✅ Pre-commit hooks (format, lint, typecheck) all pass
- ✅ Knip unused export check passes
- ✅ No behavioral changes to actual tests (only type improvements)
