Ports #14587 to release-1.12.0. Cherry-picked verbatim — release-1.12.0 carried the identical pre-fix code, so the two branches are byte-identical for this file again.

Problem

Windows Playwright shards 30/70 and 31/70 were the only failing jobs in nightly run 31867911970. All 70 Linux shards passed — including the Linux shards running the same spec, in 5.1m versus 9.7m/10.3m on Windows.

Five of bulk-delete-sessions.spec.ts's fourteen tests failed with:

Error: Flow <uuid> did not finish model refresh and autosave persistence within 30000ms
  at tests/utils/flow-editor-persistence.ts:237

Cause

reloadAndWaitForFlowPersistence created its deadline setTimeout before calling page.reload(), so the 30s budget had to cover the page load in addition to the model refresh and autosave it exists to observe.

Playwright serves the editor from a Vite dev server (npm start), so a reload replays ~3,500 unbundled module requests. Measured from the blob-report traces on Windows:

trace page.reload() alone GET /flows/{id} POST custom_component/update autosave PATCH
e3fe6e22 19.0s t+27.6s t+29.7s (1.06s) deadline fired first
1a49b9dd 21.5s t+28.9s t+47.5s (10.8s) t+47.5s (10.3s)
f6f421a4 34.9s

The third reload outlasts the entire budget on its own, so that run could never pass regardless of how fast the rest of the chain was.

The barrier reaches 38 call sites across 30 spec files, so this was a latent flake for every Windows spec that configures the loopback provider, not only the two shards that happened to pair two playground chat builds on one runner.

Fix

Arm the deadline after the reload resolves, and raise it to TIMEOUTS.long. Worst observed post-reload cost was ~37s, so 60s gives ~1.6x headroom; the test timeout is 5 minutes while these tests run 65-95s.

Test plan

  • Windows shards 30/70 and 31/70 green on release-1.12.0
  • No regression in the Linux shards covering the other 36 call sites

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved reliability of flow persistence checks after page reloads.
    • Extended the available processing time for model refresh and autosave operations.
    • Updated timeout messaging to better describe persistence failures.

reloadAndWaitForFlowPersistence created its deadline setTimeout before calling
page.reload(), so the 30s budget had to cover the page load as well as the
model refresh and autosave it is actually there to observe. Playwright serves
the editor from a Vite dev server (`npm start`), so a reload replays ~3.5k
unbundled module requests. Measured from the blob-report traces on Windows:

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The flow editor persistence utility now starts its timeout after page reload completes. It uses TIMEOUTS.long for model refresh and autosave processing, and updates the timeout error message.

Changes

Flow editor persistence

Layer / File(s) Summary
Defer persistence timeout after reload
src/frontend/tests/utils/flow-editor-persistence.ts
The persistence deadline is created after reload completion with TIMEOUTS.long. The timeout error reports the updated duration.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8914c

The change improves timeout measurement, but a persistence failure can still occur during reload without being handled, potentially causing flaky or failed test runs. Merge should wait for this rejection-handling issue to be fixed or explicitly accepted.

❌ Failed checks (1 error, 1 warning)

Check name Status Explanation Resolution
Test Coverage For New Implementations ❌ Error The bug-fix commit changes only flow-editor-persistence.ts; no test file was added or updated, and existing policy tests do not cover the post-reload timeout. Add a regression test that verifies the persistence timeout starts after page.reload() and uses TIMEOUTS.long.
Test Quality And Coverage ⚠️ Warning The commit changes reloadAndWaitForFlowPersistence timing but adds no test; existing policy tests omit the deadline, and 28 Playwright callers do not directly verify post-reload timeout behavior. Add a deterministic Playwright-helper unit test with a mocked Page and fake timers. Verify a slow reload does not consume the post-reload deadline and that timeout errors use TIMEOUTS.long.

Attach a rejection handler before page.reload().

persistence can reject while page.reload() is pending. Attach void persistence.catch(() => undefined); before the reload. Keep racing the original persistence promise so the failure still propagates.

fix(ci): grant the label job pull-requests write

Every "Label PR" run has failed since #14540 -- 67 successes and no failures
before it, 16 failures after (the successes since are runs where the job's `if:`
skips it, e.g. merge_group and bot PRs):

    POST /repos//issues/14588/labels
    403 Resource not accessible by integration

#14540 added a `permissions:` block to this workflow. Before that there was
none, so it inherited the repository default, which includes pull-requests
write. Labelling a *pull request* needs that scope: the `issues` permission only
covers real issues even though the REST path is `/issues/{n}/labels`. GitHub
says so in the response itself:

    x-accepted-github-permissions: issues=write; pull_requests=write

Also unblocks Namchee/conventional-pr in the same workflow, which cannot post
its report under a read-only pull-requests scope.
