test(handlers/socket): add socket_test.go — 6 cases for Phase 30.1/30.2 auth gate

Tests SocketHandler.HandleConnect WebSocket upgrade auth logic: 1. Canvas client (no X-Workspace-ID) → bypasses auth, no DB calls 2. Agent with no live tokens → grandfathered through, no bearer check 3. DB error on HasAnyLiveToken → 500 Internal Server Error 4. Live token present, missing Bearer header → 401 Unauthorized 5. Live token present, invalid Bearer token → 401 Unauthorized Uses sqlmock for DB expectations + miniredis for wsauth token subsystem. Hub.Run() drains the Register channel so WS upgrade attempts don't block. Issue: #699 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Merge pull request 'fix(handlers): OFFSEC-001 — scrub req.Method from dispatchRPC default error' (#692 ) from fix/684-offsec-scrub-method-default into staging

 But the long-term collaboration model remains direct workspace-to-workspace communication via A2A.

+## Known Limitations
+
+### Playwright / browser system libs are not installed
+
+The base `molecule-ai-workspace-runtime` image (`workspace/Dockerfile`) is built on `python:3.11-slim` with Node.js 22, git, and `gh` — about 500 MB. It deliberately **does not** include the system libraries Chromium needs (`libnss3`, `libatk-bridge2.0-0`, `libxkbcommon0`, `libcups2`, `libdrm2`, `libxcomposite1`, `libxdamage1`, `libxrandr2`, `libgbm1`, `libpango-1.0-0`, `libasound2`, etc.). Adding them would inflate the image by ~200–250 MB (~40%) for every workspace, even though only frontend / QA workspaces ever launch a browser.
+
+Practical consequences:
+
+- `npx playwright test` (and any other Chromium-driven E2E tooling) **will fail at browser launch** when run from inside an in-container workspace agent.
+- The error surface is missing-shared-object messages such as `error while loading shared libraries: libnss3.so` or `Host system is missing dependencies to run browsers`.
+- Unit and integration tests (Vitest, Jest, etc.) that don't spawn a real browser are unaffected.
+
+Recommended workflow:
+
+1. **Run E2E in CI**, not in-container. The Gitea Actions self-hosted runner (and the GitHub Actions runner used by mirror repos) has the full Playwright dep set installed and is the supported surface for E2E. Push a branch, let CI run the suite.
+2. **Local debugging** of a single failing spec is best done on a developer laptop with `npx playwright install-deps` run once.
+3. **In-container iteration** on test logic itself is fine — write specs, lint them, type-check them — just don't expect `playwright test` to actually launch a browser.
+
+If a particular workspace role genuinely needs in-container E2E (a dedicated QA template, for instance), the right place to layer Playwright deps is in a **role-specific adapter template image** that does `FROM molecule-ai-workspace-runtime:<tag>` and adds `RUN npx playwright install-deps`. Open a request against `molecule-ai-workspace-runtime` if you need this template stamped.

+# Why: the publish-workspace-server-image (and harness-replays) CI jobs

+//
+// Background (#2872 + post-2026-05-06 follow-up):
+//   - Migration 20260506000000_workspaces_unique_parent_name added a
+//     partial UNIQUE index on (COALESCE(parent_id, sentinel), name)
+//     WHERE status != 'removed'. It exists to close the TOCTOU race in
+//     /org/import that previously let two concurrent POSTs both INSERT
+//     the same (parent_id, name) row.
+//   - /org/import handles the constraint via `ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING`
+//     + idempotent re-select (handlers/org_import.go).
+//   - The Canvas Create handler (handlers/workspace.go) did NOT — a
+//     duplicate POST returned an opaque HTTP 500 with the raw pq error
+//     in the server log. Repro path: user clicks a template card twice
+//     in canvas before the first response paints.
+//
+// Resolution: auto-suffix the user-typed name on collision. The
+// uniqueness constraint required for #2872 stays in place; only the
+// Canvas Create path's reaction to it changes. Names become a
+// free-form display label that the platform disambiguates; row
+// identity is carried by the workspace id (UUID).
+//
+// Suffix shape: " (2)", " (3)", … up to N=maxNameSuffix. Chosen over
+// numeric "-2" / "_2" because the parenthesised form is the standard
+// disambiguation pattern users already expect from Finder / Explorer
+// / Google Docs / file managers. Stays under the 255-char name cap

+//     "workspaces_parent_name_uniq" (not a synonym, not the message

+//   - The COALESCE(parent_id, sentinel) target collapses NULL
+//     parent_ids so two root-level workspaces with the same name
+//     collide as the migration intends.
+//   - The WHERE status != 'removed' partial filter exempts

+//
+// Per feedback_mandatory_local_e2e_before_ship: ship-mode requires
+// the helper to be exercised against a real Postgres before the PR

+#   2. \[              — consumes the '[' so it gets replaced, not duplicated.
