perf(tests): seed the loopback provider into starter templates instead of reloading - #14589
Conversation
…d of reloading `configureLoopbackOpenAI` patched the persisted flow behind the running editor and then reloaded the page so the editor would pick the change up. Playwright serves the app from a Vite dev server, so that reload replays ~3.5k unbundled module requests: 19-35s on Windows CI, and it happens once per test across 38 call sites. Nothing forces the configuration to arrive out of band. `useAddFlow` posts the starter template the browser fetched from `/api/v1/flows/basic_examples/`, so serving that catalog already pointed at the loopback fixture makes the flow *born* configured — the editor and the database never diverge and there is nothing to reload for. `seedLoopbackProvider(page)` installs that route and must run before the first navigation, since React Query caches the catalog for the session. `configureLoopbackOpenAI` then takes a fast path when the flow it reads is already configured, and keeps the patch-and-reload path otherwise, so a spec that does not seed (or builds its flow from a blank canvas) is unaffected. The fallback warns rather than staying silent, so the optimization cannot rot unnoticed across the seeded specs. The one thing that can still write these nodes without a reload is the model refresh `useApplyFlowToCanvas` fires on mount, so the fast path waits for it. Refreshes carry no flow in their URL — `buildRefreshPayload` stamps `_frontend_node_flow_id` onto the template — so `modelRefreshFlowId` attributes them, and the tracker is armed before navigation to avoid a retroactive wait. The shared mutation and predicates move into `loopback-provider-policy.mjs` alongside the existing `flow-editor-persistence-policy.mjs`, pure and unit tested, so the route seeder and the patch path cannot drift apart. Not rolled out to specs that build from a blank canvas (`decisionFlow`, `similarity`, `Youtube Analysis`) — seeding the template catalog does nothing for them. Deliberately opt-in rather than folded into `openStarterProject`: `live/llm-provider-smoke.spec.ts` uses that helper and must reach a real provider, which is exactly the failure mode #14540 fixed for the live config. Measured locally on macOS, bulk-delete-sessions.spec.ts (8 tests, 2 workers): 2.8m before, 1.6m after, all passing both ways. macOS reloads are far cheaper than the 19-35s measured on Windows, so the CI saving should be larger.

WalkthroughThe PR adds shared loopback-provider policy and seeding utilities. It updates loopback configuration to support pre-seeded flows and adds seeding setup to frontend feature, integration, and regression tests. ChangesLoopback provider infrastructure
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to This PR seeds loopback provider settings into starter templates to avoid expensive page reloads. A localized test-wait timing issue could cause occasional misattribution of model refresh completion, but the bounded impact is limited to test reliability and no merge-blocking risk remains after normal review.

…d of reloading (release-1.12.0) (#14593) perf(tests): seed the loopback provider into starter templates instead of reloading (#14589) `configureLoopbackOpenAI` patched the persisted flow behind the running editor and then reloaded the page so the editor would pick the change up. Playwright serves the app from a Vite dev server, so that reload replays ~3.5k unbundled module requests: 19-35s on Windows CI, and it happens once per test across 38 call sites.

(cherry picked from commit b40b405)
Follow-up to #14587, which fixed the timeout on the flow-persistence barrier. This removes the reload that made the barrier expensive in the first place.
Why
configureLoopbackOpenAIpatched the persisted flow behind the running editor, then reloaded the page so the editor would pick the change up. Playwright serves the app from a Vite dev server, so that reload replays ~3,500 unbundled module requests — 19-35s on Windows CI, once per test, across 38 call sites.Nothing forces the configuration to arrive out of band.
useAddFlowposts the starter template the browser fetched from/api/v1/flows/basic_examples/, so serving that catalog already pointed at the loopback fixture makes the flow born configured: the editor and the database never diverge, and there is nothing to reload for.How
seedLoopbackProvider(page)rewrites the starter-template catalog response. It must run before the first navigation, since React Query caches the catalog for the session — called too late, it throws rather than silently doing nothing.configureLoopbackOpenAItakes a fast path when the flow it reads is already configured, and keeps patch-and-reload otherwise. A spec that does not seed, or builds its flow from a blank canvas, is unaffected. The fallbackconsole.warns rather than staying silent, so the optimization cannot rot unnoticed across the seeded specs.useApplyFlowToCanvasfires on mount, so the fast path waits for it. Refreshes carry no flow in their URL —buildRefreshPayloadstamps_frontend_node_flow_idonto the template — somodelRefreshFlowIdattributes them, and the tracker is armed before navigation so the wait can never be retroactive.loopback-provider-policy.mjsholds the shared mutation and predicates, next to the existingflow-editor-persistence-policy.mjs— pure and unit tested, so the route seeder and the patch path cannot drift apart.Scope
