Research direction

The failure is in the Smoke Codex workflow (smoke-codex.md) run linked from the issue, during its playwright-cli browser step. Start from the run log to see where Chrome aborts with the SUID sandbox error, then check whether the issue's requested title subcommand is part of the workflow itself. Done means the workflow's Playwright step completes in CI without a sandbox abort, or the workflow is changed to use supported commands.

Description

agentic-workflows
Workflow Failure

Workflow: Smoke Codex
Branch: copilot/fix-codeql-file-system-race
Run: https://github.com/github/gh-aw-firewall/actions/runs/38950813315
Pull Request: #10122

[!WARNING]
Missing Tools Reported: The agent reported missing tools during execution.

Missing Tools:

  • playwright-cli browser execution: Playwright smoke step could not complete: `playwright-cli` is installed, but Chrome aborts with SUID sandbox helper misconfiguration; the CLI also has no `title` subcommand as requested.

Alternatives:

Tool Alternative
playwright-cli browser execution Use supported `playwright-cli` commands such as `open`+`eval 'document.title'` in an environment where the browser sandbox is configured correctly.
