Implement the corresponding MCP tool as per `Adding MCP Tools` section above, if needed. - Add new CLI category for tool if needed: - Add Category in `packages/playwright/src/mcp/terminal/command.ts` - Update doc generator `packages/playwright/src/mcp/terminal/helpGenerator.ts` - Register command in `packages/playwright/src/mcp/terminal/commands.ts` - Update skill file at `packages/playwright/src/skill/SKILL.md` and references if necessary in `packages/playwright/src/skill/references/` - Place new tests in `tests/mcp/cli-<category>.spec.ts` ## Building - Assume watch is running at all times, run lint to see type errors ## Testing - Run tests as `npm run ctest-mcp cli-<category>` - Do not run test --debug # Lint - run `npm run flint` to lint everything before commit
