Reza Rezvani 2c72babd52 feat: add MkDocs Material docs site with 170 auto-generated skill pages
- mkdocs.yml: Material theme with dark/light mode, search, tabs, sitemap
- scripts/generate-docs.py: auto-generates docs from all SKILL.md files
- docs/index.md: landing page with domain overview and quick install
- docs/getting-started.md: installation guide for Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw
- docs/skills/: 170 skill pages + 9 domain index pages
- .github/workflows/static.yml: MkDocs build + GitHub Pages deploy
- .gitignore: exclude site/ build output

# Migrate to Playwright
Interactive migration from Cypress or Selenium to Playwright with file-by-file conversion.
## Input
`$ARGUMENTS` can be:
- `"from cypress"` — migrate Cypress test suite
- `"from selenium"` — migrate Selenium/WebDriver tests
- A file path: convert a specific test file
- Empty: auto-detect source framework
## Steps
### 1. Detect Source Framework
Use `Explore` subagent to scan:
- `cypress/` directory or `cypress.config.ts` → Cypress
- `selenium`, `webdriver` in `package.json` deps → Selenium
- `.py` test files with `selenium` imports → Selenium (Python)
### 2. Assess Migration Scope
Count files and categorize:
```
Migration Assessment:
- Total test files: X
- Cypress custom commands: Y
- Cypress fixtures: Z
- Estimated effort: [small|medium|large]
```
| Size | Files | Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Small (1-10) | Convert sequentially | Direct conversion |
| Medium (11-30) | Batch in groups of 5 | Use sub-agents |
| Large (31+) | Use `/batch` | Parallel conversion with `/batch` |
### 3. Set Up Playwright (If Not Present)
Run `/pw:init` first if Playwright isn't configured.
### 4. Convert Files
For each file, apply the appropriate mapping:
#### Cypress → Playwright
Load `cypress-mapping.md` for complete reference.
Key translations:
```
cy.visit(url) → page.goto(url)
cy.get(selector) → page.locator(selector) or page.getByRole(...)
cy.contains(text) → page.getByText(text)
cy.find(selector) → locator.locator(selector)
cy.click() → locator.click()
cy.type(text) → locator.fill(text)
cy.should('be.visible') → expect(locator).toBeVisible()
cy.should('have.text') → expect(locator).toHaveText(text)
cy.intercept() → page.route()
cy.wait('@alias') → page.waitForResponse()
cy.fixture() → JSON import or test data file
```
**Cypress custom commands** → Playwright fixtures or helper functions
**Cypress plugins** → Playwright config or fixtures
**`before`/`beforeEach`** → `test.beforeAll()` / `test.beforeEach()`
#### Selenium → Playwright
Load `selenium-mapping.md` for complete reference.
Key translations:
```
driver.get(url) → page.goto(url)
driver.findElement(By.id('x')) → page.locator('#x') or page.getByTestId('x')
driver.findElement(By.css('.x')) → page.locator('.x') or page.getByRole(...)
element.click() → locator.click()
element.sendKeys(text) → locator.fill(text)
element.getText() → locator.textContent()
WebDriverWait + ExpectedConditions → expect(locator).toBeVisible()
driver.switchTo().frame() → page.frameLocator()
Actions → locator.hover(), locator.dragTo()
```
### 5. Upgrade Locators
During conversion, upgrade selectors to Playwright best practices:
- `#id``getByTestId()` or `getByRole()`
- `.class``getByRole()` or `getByText()`
- `[data-testid]``getByTestId()`
- XPath → role-based locators
### 6. Convert Custom Commands / Utilities
- Cypress custom commands → Playwright custom fixtures via `test.extend()`
- Selenium page objects → Playwright page objects (keep structure, update API)
- Shared helpers → TypeScript utility functions
### 7. Verify Each Converted File
After converting each file:
```bash
npx playwright test <converted-file> --reporter=list
```
Fix any compilation or runtime errors before moving to the next file.
### 8. Clean Up
After all files are converted:
- Remove Cypress/Selenium dependencies from `package.json`
- Remove old config files (`cypress.config.ts`, etc.)
- Update CI workflow to use Playwright
- Update README with new test commands
Ask user before deleting anything.
## Output
- Conversion summary: files converted, total tests migrated
- Any tests that couldn't be auto-converted (manual intervention needed)
- Updated CI config
- Before/after comparison of test run results
