Research direction

Start by comparing the APP_URL values in the master and branch polyscope.json files, then trace the preview flow from starting the preview through clicking Browse and initiating an Expose session. Reproduce the next-day failure on Ubuntu 24.04 and use relevant logs to determine why Browse no longer starts a session; done means the preview still works after waiting and uses the branch APP_URL.
