Zed IDE Integration

Read can't read binary files (PNG, etc.) — Zed bug #48133 (open, P2). Use display tree for state, not screenshots.
Stale Playwright processes accumulate → pkill -f playwright 2>/dev/null if browser behaves unexpectedly.
clangd relative -I paths in .clangd resolve from the source file's directory, not the project root (when no compile_commands.json exists). Files in subdirectories (e.g. project/common/foo.cpp) will fail to find includes specified as -I./some-dir in .clangd CompileFlags.Add.

WRONG — .clangd:
```
CompileFlags:
  Add: [-I./native, -I./project/common]
```
RIGHT — compile_flags.txt in the project root:
```
-I./native
-I./project/common
```
clangd uses the compile_flags.txt parent directory as CWD, so paths resolve correctly from the root. Keep .clangd for non-path flags (warnings, diagnostics, If/PathMatch overrides) only.
