- **McpService** registers every MCP tool and delegates to domain services.
- **AuthService** — drives a Playwright browser to log in via a key descriptor; saves cookies + localStorage as a `Session`.
- **SessionService** — stores and retrieves saved browser sessions.
- **EnvironmentService** — stores named environments (URL maps) used by auth and scenarios.
- **BrowserService** — ad-hoc, stateless `open_url` / `exec_code` operations outside the scenario scheduler.
- **CodeExecutorService** — compiles and runs user-supplied Playwright JS inside a sandboxed `async` function with `page`, `context`, and `helpers` in scope.
- **ScenarioService** — CRUD for scenarios, steps, runs, and run logs; import/export.
- **ScenarioSchedulerService** — polls for pending step runs every second and executes them. All steps in the same run share **one browser instance** (see [scenario.md](scenario.md)).
- **McpService** registers MCP tools and delegates to session, environment, browser, and scenario services.
- **SessionService** persists session records in SQLite. **SessionContextService** manages live Playwright contexts for open sessions.
- **EnvironmentService**, **CredentialService**, and **SnippetService** provide CRUD plus import/export upserts.
- **BrowserService** handles stateless ad-hoc automation (`/open`, `/exec`) and session-aware browsing.
- **CodeExecutorService** validates and executes user JS with `page`, `context`, and helper APIs.
- **ScenarioService** manages scenarios, steps, credential aliases, runs, logs, and scenario import/export.
- **ScenarioSchedulerService** polls pending runs every second and executes step runs to completion.

# Scenario execution
When a scenario is run, the scheduler creates a `ScenarioRun` with one `ScenarioRunStep` per step. Steps are executed **in order** (by `step.order`), one per scheduler tick.
When a scenario run is created, the server creates one `ScenarioRunStep` per scenario step.
**All steps in the same run share a single Playwright browser instance.** The browser is created on the first `exec` or `sign` step (using session cookies + localStorage), reused for every subsequent step, and closed when the run finishes (pass or fail).
- Step runs are ordered by `step.order`.
- First step run starts as `pending`; the rest start as `waiting`.
- Scheduler tick (`@Interval(1000)`) picks pending runs and processes steps in order.
- Steps in the same run share one Playwright browser/context/page.
## Step types
## Execution model
### `login`
Current scheduler behavior is exec-centric:
Authenticates in a **separate, ephemeral browser** and saves the resulting session to the database. Subsequent exec/sign steps load that session into the shared browser.
- `execCode` is required for a step to pass.
- `validateCode` is optional and runs after `execCode`.
- Legacy step type metadata may still appear in MCP payloads, but run execution is not branched by step type.
`execCode` must be a JSON object:
```json
{ "keyId": "3137411915", "environmentName": "liquio-diia-stg" }
```
## Script runtime
### `exec`
`execCode` and `validateCode` execute as async JavaScript with:
Runs arbitrary Playwright JS on the **shared page**. The page carries over state from the previous step (URL, form inputs, cookies, etc.).
- `page`: Playwright `Page`
- `context`: Playwright `BrowserContext`
- `helpers`: utility object
- `console`: proxied to run logs (`log`, `warn`, `error`, etc.)
`execCode` is executed as the body of an `async` function with these variables in scope:
`validateCode` additionally receives `result`, which is the value returned by `execCode`.
- `page` — current Playwright `Page`
- `context` — current Playwright `BrowserContext`
- `helpers.dumpDom(selector?)` — returns a simplified DOM string
- `helpers.getStepOutput(order)` — returns the JSON-parsed `output` of a previous step. Positive values are absolute step orders; negative values are relative to the current step (`-1` = previous step).
## Available helpers
Any value returned from `execCode` is JSON-serialised and stored as the `output` field on the `ScenarioRunStep` record. Subsequent steps can read it via `helpers.getStepOutput()`.
- `helpers.dumpDom(selector?)`: simplified DOM snapshot
- `helpers.log(...args)`, `helpers.warn(...args)`, `helpers.error(...args)`: structured step logs
- `helpers.getStepOutput(order)`: prior step output by absolute order (`0`, `1`, ...) or relative (`-1` previous step)
- `helpers.getCredential(alias)`: credential payload assigned to the scenario alias
- `helpers.env`: shallow copy of environment URL map
- `helpers.getEnvUrl(key)`: required environment URL lookup (throws if missing)
- `helpers.runSnippet(name, ...args)`: execute stored snippet code in the same page/context/helpers scope
## Validation contract
`validateCode` may return:
```js
// example execCode
await page.goto('https://cabinet.example.com/tasks/create/987825');
await page.locator('input[name="institution"]').fill('caltech');
await page.locator('button:has-text("Далі")').click();
await page.waitForLoadState('networkidle');
return page.url(); // stored in ScenarioRunStep.output
```
### `sign`
Performs EDS signing on the **current shared page** using a key from `KEYS_DIR`. The step clicks the sign widget, selects the file key method, uploads the key file, enters the password, and submits — all without requiring the step author to handle key material in their code.
`execCode` must be a JSON object:
```json
{ "keyId": "3137411915" }
```
## Validation code
Any step type optionally accepts `validateCode` — Playwright JS that runs on the shared page **after** the main action and must return a result evaluated as:
```js
return { success: true, description: 'Application created' };
return { success: true, description: 'ok' };
// or
return { success: false, description: 'Expected success banner not found' };
// or simply
return someBoolean;
return false;
```
If `success` is false the step (and the whole run) fails with the provided `description`.
Interpretation:
## Run statuses
- Boolean: `true` = pass, `false` = fail
- Object: `success` controls pass/fail; `description` is persisted as step description
`pending``in_progress``pass` | `fail`
On validation failure, the step fails and the run is marked `fail`.
Individual step runs also expose `waiting` (not yet reached) and `cancelled` (run failed before this step).
## Statuses
## Adding a new scenario (example workflow)
Run status:
```
1. create_environment (if not already present)
2. create_scenario → get scenarioId
3. create_scenario_step type=login, order=0
4. create_scenario_step type=exec, order=1 (navigate + fill form)
5. create_scenario_step type=sign, order=2
6. create_scenario_step type=exec, order=3 (validateCode checks success banner)
7. run_scenario → get runId
8. wait_for_scenario_run (blocks until pass/fail, returns full run with outputs)
```
- `pending`
- `in_progress`
- `pass`
- `fail`
Run-step status:
- `waiting`
- `pending`
- `in_progress`
- `pass`
- `fail`
- `cancelled`
## Example workflow
1. Create environment
2. Create credentials and snippets (optional but common)
3. Create scenario
4. Add ordered steps (`execCode`, optional `validateCode`)
5. Assign credentials to scenario aliases when needed
6. Run scenario
7. Wait for run completion and inspect run logs/outputs
