Pull request overview
Pins the Node.js version used by the Playwright E2E job in PR CI to a Playwright-supported Node release (24.1.0) while leaving the rest of the PR workflow on the default Node version (26.1.0), to avoid hangs during playwright install chromium.
Changes:
- Add
PLAYWRIGHT_NODE_VERSION: '24.1.0'to workflow env. - Switch the
e2e-testsjob’s dependency setup to usePLAYWRIGHT_NODE_VERSIONinstead ofDEFAULT_NODE_VERSION.

What changed
Pins the PR E2E job's dependency setup to Node 24.1.0 via
PLAYWRIGHT_NODE_VERSION, while leavingDEFAULT_NODE_VERSIONon Node 26.1.0 for the rest of PR CI.Why
The E2E jobs are hanging in
pnpm exec playwright install chromiumunder Node 26: the browser download reaches 100%, then the process emits no completion line until the 20-minute job timeout cancels it. Earlier Node 24 runs completed the same Playwright browser install in seconds.Playwright currently lists Node 20/22/24 as the supported Node.js versions, so the browser install should stay on Node 24 until Playwright supports Node 26.
Validation
git diff --checkpnpm exec prettier --parser yaml .github/workflows/tests-pr.yml >/dev/nullactionlintis not installed locally.prettier --checkalready fails on the base workflow formatting, so I used Prettier only as a YAML parser for this targeted workflow change.
