Visual-Verify with Playwright★★★★★
Every UI change ends with a screenshot. If it doesn't look right, it didn't ship right.
why it matters
TypeScript + build passing does NOT mean your UI looks right. A page can compile cleanly and still render broken — wrong layout, overlapping elements, missing assets. The only way to catch this before shipping is to actually LOOK at it.
On every Escape 9 to 5 UI task: Playwright screenshots at 1280x900 desktop + 375 mobile, verify before marking done. Caught ~12 broken layouts in Escape 9 to 5's first two weeks that tsc (TypeScript compiler) + build happily greenlit. The gap between 'compiles' and 'works' is wider than most agents assume.
install
Install Playwright MCP in your agent. After any UI task, take a screenshot at 1280x900 (or mobile 375) and attach it to the response. If the screenshot looks wrong, treat the task as failed even if the build passed.where to find it
no commits in 71 days. this doesn't mean it's broken — some small repos are "finished" — but if you hit an install issue, it may not get patched quickly.
You're shipping backend-only code or pure API work. Visual verify only matters when there's a UI to look at.
