Move the worker scanner surface into TypeScript, add a direct worker regression, and make the version=2 app-test path populate the same visible result data and final status as the legacy scanner. This keeps the refactor bounded while making the worker route safe to exercise.
Constraint: Must preserve the existing Apple Silicon app-test behavior while changing the worker internals
Rejected: Flip production to the worker path immediately | still needs the normal deploy path and broader production soak
Confidence: medium
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep the version=2 adapter using the shared finishFileScan path until the legacy scanner can be removed entirely
Tested: pnpm run typecheck; pnpm exec vitest run test/scanner/client.test.ts; pnpm run test:browser (original workspace); netlify build --context deploy-preview (original workspace)
Not-tested: Browser suite from the clean clone environment (local Astro dev server startup timed out there)
Add a typed Playwright harness for Pagefind and the Apple Silicon app-test flow so scanner work has browser-level protection. Keep the rollout plan in the same stack so the TypeScript conversion stays staged and reviewable.
Constraint: Must not change production runtime behavior in this commit
Rejected: Leave the old JS browser test and add a second harness | duplicates setup and leaves the targeted browser script broken
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep browser-only helpers under test/playwright/support until the runtime scanner surface is fully typed
Tested: pnpm run typecheck; pnpm run test:browser; pnpm run test:browser:pagefind
Not-tested: Live browser checks against doesitarm.com
Cover the Native Support filter with a Playwright-backed Vitest case
that can boot the local dev server or attach to a deployed URL so the
same regression can gate post-deploy verification.
