test(canvas/FilesTab): add FileTree render + WCAG accessibility tests

24 tests covering: - Empty tree render - File row: icon, name, selection highlight, delete button aria-label - Directory row: chevron ▶/▼, loading indicator …, expand/collapse, recursive children - Context menu: file (Open + Download + Delete), dir (Delete only) - canDelete=false gates context menu Delete item - Drag-drop target highlight with dataTransfer stub (jsdom-safe) - Three-level nested tree visibility Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

+#
+# Architecture:
+#   1. Ephemeral Postgres + Redis (docker, unique container names)
+#   2. workspace-server built from source, started with
+#      MOLECULE_ENV=development (fail-open auth)
+#   3. canvas dev server (npm run dev) on :3000
+#   4. Playwright tests create workspaces via API, point them at an
+#      in-process echo runtime, and exercise the full send/receive
+#      round-trip through the browser.
+#
+# Parallel-safety: same pattern as e2e-api.yml — per-run container names
+# and ephemeral host ports so concurrent jobs on the host-network runner

+# WHY A DEDICATED WORKFLOW (not folded into e2e-staging-saas.yml)
+# --------------------------------------------------------------
+# This is the systemic fix for a real trust failure. Hermes and OpenClaw
+# were reported "fleet-verified / cascade-complete" because the *proxy*
+# signals were green (registry registration + heartbeat for Hermes; model
+# round-trip 200 for OpenClaw). A freshly-provisioned workspace asked on
+# canvas "can you see your peers" actually FAILS:
+#   - Hermes: 401 on the molecule MCP `list_peers` call
+#   - OpenClaw: native `sessions_list` fallback, sees no platform peers
+# Tasks #142/#159 were even marked "completed" under this proxy flaw.
+#
+# A dedicated workflow (vs extending e2e-staging-saas.yml) because:
+#   - It must provision MULTIPLE distinct runtimes (hermes, openclaw,
+#     claude-code) in ONE org and assert each sees the others. The
+#     full-saas script is single-runtime-per-run (E2E_RUNTIME) and folding
+#     a multi-runtime matrix into it would conflate concerns and bloat its
+#     already-45-min run.
+#   - It needs its own concurrency group so it doesn't fight full-saas /
+#     canvas for the staging org-creation quota.
+#   - It needs an independent, non-required status-context name so it can
+#     be RED today (the in-flight Hermes-401 / OpenClaw-MCP-wiring fixes
+#     have not landed) WITHOUT wedging unrelated merges — and flipped to
+#     REQUIRED in one branch-protection edit once it goes green
+#     (flip-to-required checklist: molecule-core#1296).
+#
+# THE ASSERTION IS NOT A PROXY. The driving script
+# tests/e2e/test_peer_visibility_mcp_staging.sh issues the byte-for-byte
+# JSON-RPC `tools/call name=list_peers` envelope to `POST
+# /workspaces/:id/mcp` using each workspace's OWN bearer token, through
+# the real WorkspaceAuth + MCPRateLimiter middleware chain — the exact
+# call mcp_molecule_list_peers makes from a canvas agent. It does NOT
+# read a registry row, /health, the heartbeat table, or
+# GET /registry/:id/peers.
+#
+# HONEST GATE — NO continue-on-error. Per feedback_fix_root_not_symptom a
+# fake-green mask would defeat the entire purpose. This workflow goes red
+# on today's broken behavior and green only when the root-cause fixes
+# actually land. It is intentionally NOT in branch_protections — see PR
+# body for the required-vs-not decision + flip tracking issue.
+#
+# Gitea 1.22.6 / act_runner notes honored:
+#   - No cross-repo `uses:` (feedback_gitea_cross_repo_uses_blocked). The
+#     actions/checkout SHA is the one e2e-staging-canvas.yml already uses
+#     successfully (a mirrored SHA — see #1277/PR#1292 root-cause).
+#   - Per-SHA concurrency, not global (feedback_concurrency_group_per_sha).
+#   - Workflow-level GITHUB_SERVER_URL pinned
+#     (feedback_act_runner_github_server_url).
+#   - pr-validate posts a status under the same check name so a
+#     workflow-only PR is not silently statusless and the context is
+#     flip-to-required-ready (mirrors e2e-staging-saas.yml's proven shape;
+#     real EC2-provisioning E2E is push/dispatch/cron only — it is 30+ min

+# Staging E2E — fresh-provision peer-visibility gate via the LITERAL MCP path.
+#
+# WHY THIS EXISTS
+# ---------------
+# Hermes and OpenClaw were repeatedly reported "fleet-verified / cascade-
+# complete" because the *proxy* signals were green:
+#   - registry-registration + heartbeat (Hermes), and
+#   - model round-trip 200 (OpenClaw).
+# But a freshly-provisioned workspace, asked on canvas "can you see your
+# peers", actually FAILS:
+#   - Hermes: 401 on the molecule MCP `list_peers` call,
+#   - OpenClaw: falls back to native `sessions_list`, sees no platform peers.
+# Tasks #142/#159 were even marked "completed" under this same proxy flaw.
+#
+# This script codifies the LITERAL user-facing path so it can never silently
+# regress: it provisions a brand-new throwaway org + sibling workspaces via
+# the real control-plane provisioning path, then for each runtime that should
+# have platform peer-visibility it drives the EXACT MCP call the canvas agent
+# makes — `POST /workspaces/:id/mcp` JSON-RPC tools/call name=list_peers,
+# authenticated by that workspace's own bearer token through the real
+# WorkspaceAuth + MCPRateLimiter middleware chain. It then asserts:
+#   (1) HTTP 200,
+#   (2) JSON-RPC `result` present (NOT an `error` object — a -32000
+#       "tool call failed" or a 401 from WorkspaceAuth fails here),
+#   (3) the returned peer set CONTAINS the other provisioned sibling
+#       workspace IDs — not an empty list, not a native-sessions fallback.
+#
+# This is NOT a proxy. It does not look at a registry row, /health, the
+# heartbeat table, or `GET /registry/:id/peers`. It drives the byte-for-byte
+# JSON-RPC envelope that mcp_molecule_list_peers issues from a real agent.
+#
+# It is written to FAIL on today's broken Hermes/OpenClaw behavior and go
+# green only when the in-flight root-cause fixes (Hermes-401, OpenClaw MCP
+# wiring) actually land. That is the point: it is the objective proof gate.

+# E2E test: workspace broadcast and talk-to-user platform abilities.
+#
+# What this proves:
+#   1. talk_to_user_enabled (default true) — POST /notify works out-of-the-box.
+#   2. PATCH /workspaces/:id/abilities { talk_to_user_enabled: false } disables
+#      delivery: /notify → 403 with error="talk_to_user_disabled" + delegate hint.
+#   3. Re-enabling talk_to_user_enabled restores delivery.
+#   4. broadcast_enabled (default false) — POST /broadcast → 403 when disabled.
+#   5. PATCH { broadcast_enabled: true } enables fan-out.
+#   6. POST /broadcast delivers to all non-sender, non-removed workspaces:
+#      - Returns {"status":"sent","delivered":N}
+#      - Receiver's activity log has a broadcast_receive entry with the message.
+#      - Sender's activity log has a broadcast_sent entry.
+#   7. The sender itself does NOT receive a broadcast_receive entry.
+#
+# Usage:  tests/e2e/test_workspace_abilities_e2e.sh
+# Prereqs: workspace-server on http://localhost:8080, MOLECULE_ENV != production
