7 docs in /testing/ — institutional memory after 6+ regressions in
24-48h on the v6 theme. Read before any edit.
README.md — index + quickstart
THEMING.md — safe-edit checklist + layer/specificity tables
ERROR-PATTERNS.md — 12 cataloged patterns (Symptom/Cause/Diag/Fix/Prev)
HEADLESS-PROBE.md — 11 playwright recipes (md5 chain, darkPct,
ancestor bg sample, dropdown listItem probe)
ROLLBACK.md — 8 emergency revert recipes (overlay, branding,
encoding, full-from-repo, dev-clone-prod,
git-revert, pw-reset, bind-mount inode-swap)
SMOKE-TEST.md — manual + headless verify checklist
DEPLOY.md — dev → prod promotion workflow with backup +
chown root + restart inode-swap
Empty subdirs: snipUSER-Es/, recipes/, incidents/ (post-mortems land here).
Goal: stop reinventing the same fixes. Catalog every error class,
codify the recovery, build a skills folder for future ARRFLIX work.

## Quickstart for "I want to edit the theme"
|
|
|
|
1. Read `THEMING.md` — pay attention to the layer model + L1/L2 paired rules
|
|
2. Edit `bin/inject-middle-theme.py`. Keep it dev-only, scoped under `body.arrflix-themed`
|
|
3. `python3 bin/inject-middle-theme.py` to regenerate `web-overrides/index.html`
|
|
4. scp the regenerated file to dev's overlay path (NOT prod)
|
|
5. `docker restart jellyfin-dev` — bind-mount inode swap requires restart
|
|
6. Run `SMOKE-TEST.md` checklist on dev
|
|
7. Hard-refresh the browser (Ctrl+Shift+R) — defeats Service Worker + HTTP cache
|
|
8. If green: promote per `DEPLOY.md`. If red: revert per `ROLLBACK.md`
|
|
|
|
## Why this exists
|
|
|
|
Five+ regressions in 24 hours during 2026-05-09 (docs/26 INC1-5, docs/28 INC7, docs/30 v6-stable). Each one was the same anti-pattern: an opaque CSS rule painted over the video. Combined with bind-mount inode + browser-cache + XML-parse-silent-failures + Cineplex CSS shadow specificity → debugging nightmare. This folder is the institutional memory.
