jaeone94 98a8a614e8 fix: avoid false missing media errors after importing shared workflow assets (#12333)
## Summary

Import published media assets for shared workflows before loading the
graph so the first missing-media scan sees the user's newly imported
references instead of surfacing a false missing asset error. cc FE-773

## Changes

- **What**: Moves the shared workflow import step ahead of
`loadGraphData` for the copy-and-open flow, while still allowing the
workflow to open with a warning path if asset import fails.
- **What**: Clears the shared workflow URL intent consistently on
failure paths, including graph load failure after an import attempt, so
reloads do not repeatedly replay the same shared workflow side effects.
- **What**: Invalidates the input asset cache after published asset
import so graph loading and missing-media resolution can observe the
refreshed media state.
- **What**: Adds a global loading spinner while shared workflow asset
import and graph load are in progress, with `role="status"`,
`aria-live`, reduced-motion-safe animation, and body teleporting so it
stays visible above blocking UI.
- **What**: Adds stable TestIds for the shared workflow dialog and
updates existing shared workflow E2E selectors away from copy-dependent
role text.
- **What**: Adds a cloud E2E regression fixture and spec covering the
critical flow: shared URL opens the dialog, the user confirms asset
import, published media is imported before the public-inclusive input
asset scan, the workflow loads, the share query is removed, and missing
media UI is not surfaced.
- **Breaking**: None.
- **Dependencies**: None.

## Root Cause

Shared workflow graph loading triggered the missing-media pipeline
before the user-selected published media import had completed. Because
`include_public=true` does not include published assets, the pre-import
scan could classify shared media as missing even when the user was about
to import those assets into their own library.

## Review Focus

- The ordering in `useSharedWorkflowUrlLoader`: import published assets
first, then load the graph, while keeping import failure non-fatal for
workflow opening.
- The failure cleanup behavior: the shared URL/preserved query intent is
now cleared for graph load failures too, avoiding repeated
reload-triggered imports.
- The spinner behavior in `App.vue`: it uses the existing
`workspaceStore.spinner` boolean and intentionally keeps broader
ref-counted spinner ownership as follow-up work.
- The E2E sentinel in `sharedWorkflowMissingMedia.spec.ts`: it asserts
no public-inclusive input asset scan occurs before `/api/assets/import`,
then waits for a settling window to ensure the missing-media overlay
does not appear.

## Validation

- `pnpm format`
- `pnpm lint` (passed with existing unrelated warnings only)
- `pnpm typecheck`
- `pnpm test:unit`
- Commit hook: lint-staged formatting/linting, `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm
typecheck:browser`
- Push hook: `pnpm knip --cache` (passed with existing tag hint only)

## Follow-Up

- Consider a ref-counted or scoped global spinner API so long-running
flows do not directly toggle `workspaceStore.spinner`.
- Consider separating shared workflow load status into orthogonal result
fields instead of encoding partial success in a single string union.
- Consider moving published asset import/cache invalidation behind an
asset-service-owned API boundary.
- Backend follow-up remains needed for `include_public=true` not
including published assets; this PR only removes the frontend false
positive when the user explicitly imports the shared media.

Release Schedule

The project follows a structured release process for each minor version, consisting of three distinct phases:

  1. Development Phase - 2 weeks

    • Active development of new features
    • Code changes merged to the development branch
  2. Feature Freeze - 2 weeks

    • No new features accepted
    • Only bug fixes are cherry-picked to the release branch
    • Testing and stabilization of the codebase
  3. Publication

    • Release is published at the end of the freeze period
    • Version is finalized and made available to all users

Nightly Releases

Nightly releases are published daily at https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend/releases.

To use the latest nightly release, add the following command line argument to your ComfyUI launch script:

--front-end-version Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend@latest

Overlapping Release Cycles

The development of successive minor versions overlaps. For example, while version 1.1 is in feature freeze, development for version 1.2 begins simultaneously. Each feature has approximately 4 weeks from merge to ComfyUI stable release (2 weeks on main, 2 weeks frozen on RC).

Example Release Cycle

Week Date Range Version 1.1 Version 1.2 Version 1.3 Patch Releases
1-2 Mar 1-14 Development - - -
3-4 Mar 15-28 Feature Freeze Development - 1.1.0 through 1.1.13 (daily)
5-6 Mar 29-Apr 11 Released Feature Freeze Development 1.1.14+ (daily)
1.2.0 through 1.2.13 (daily)
7-8 Apr 12-25 - Released Feature Freeze 1.2.14+ (daily)
1.3.0 through 1.3.13 (daily)

v1.10.9: Selection Toolbox API

Extensions can register commands that appear in the selection toolbox when specific items are selected on the canvas.

app.registerExtension({
  name: 'TestExtension1',
  commands: [
    {

      label: 'Test Command',
      icon: 'pi pi-star',
      function: () => {
        // Command logic here
      }
    }
  ],
  // Return an array of command IDs to show in the selection toolbox
