The E2E workflow was failing during "Build frontend" because npm ci
was only run at root level. The frontend directory has its own
package.json with React, Tailwind, and other dependencies that were
never installed.
Add "Install frontend dependencies" step before build
Update Node.js version from 18 to 20 (required by markdownlint-cli2)
Fixes failing E2E tests in PR #550
Replace hardcoded CHARON_ENCRYPTION_KEY with environment variable
substitution using Docker Compose required variable syntax.
docker-compose.playwright.yml: use ${CHARON_ENCRYPTION_KEY:?...}
docker-compose.e2e.yml: use ${CHARON_ENCRYPTION_KEY:?...}
e2e-tests.yml: add ephemeral key generation per CI run
.env.test.example: document the requirement prominently
Security: The old key exists in git history and must never be used
in production. Each CI run now generates a unique ephemeral key.

Integrate @bgotink/playwright-coverage for E2E test coverage tracking:
Install @bgotink/playwright-coverage package
Update playwright.config.js with coverage reporter
Update test file imports to use coverage-enabled test function
Add e2e-tests.yml coverage artifact upload and merge job
Create codecov.yml with e2e flag configuration
Add E2E coverage skill and VS Code task
Coverage outputs: HTML, LCOV, JSON to coverage/e2e/
CI uploads merged coverage to Codecov with 'e2e' flag
Enables unified coverage view across unit and E2E tests
Add comprehensive E2E testing infrastructure including:
docker-compose.playwright.yml for test environment orchestration
TestDataManager utility for per-test namespace isolation
Wait helpers for flaky test prevention
Role-based auth fixtures for admin/user/guest testing
GitHub Actions e2e-tests.yml with 4-shard parallelization
Health check utility for service readiness validation
Phase 0 of 10-week E2E testing plan (Supervisor approved 9.2/10)
All 52 existing E2E tests pass with new infrastructure
