description	Runs the Compass post-deploy staging confidence sweep in a user-connected browser, verifies the expected signed-in test profile, exercises core flows, checks console/network failures, and reports evidence. Use when explicitly invoked with /qa-test-staging.

Test Compass staging

Test https://staging.compasscalendar.com in a user-connected browser after a deploy. Prefer Cursor's browser control in Cursor, Claude-in-Chrome in Claude, or another real-profile browser tool. Do not substitute an isolated browser when the flow depends on an existing signed-in profile.

Safety boundaries

• Do not enter credentials or automate Google OAuth.
• Do not guess which browser profile is correct.
• Verify signed-in state from the account control before changing data.
• Never fall back to a temporary account and report an authenticated pass.
• Stop and ask the user to connect/sign in the staging profile when no suitable session is available.
• Do not delete created artifacts without explicit approval.

Expected authenticated test account: [e-mail]. Temporary account indicates the anonymous/local profile.

1. Select and verify the browser

1. List connected browser tabs/profiles using the available browser tooling.
2. Navigate a fresh tab to staging.
3. Inspect the account control:
   • expected test email → proceed
   • Temporary account → this is not the authenticated target
4. If multiple valid sessions exist, ask the user which to use. If none exist, stop with the exact connection/sign-in action required.
5. Lock the selected tab/session when the browser tool supports locking.

2. Core authenticated sweep

Confirm each action from rendered state, not merely a successful click. Capture a screenshot when supported and inspect console/network errors throughout.

1. Load and auth — staging renders and the expected account remains shown.
2. Calendar event — create a uniquely named timed event, move or resize it, open its details, switch Day/Week views, reload, and confirm persistence.
3. Navigation — previous/next date, month navigation, and date-picker jump.
4. Commands — open the command palette and shortcuts panel; complete one palette action end-to-end.
5. Google state — observe connection/import status without reconnecting or mutating OAuth unless the user explicitly requested that scenario.

A visually successful flow with a thrown exception or failed request is a finding.

3. Recently changed flows

Inspect recently merged pull requests against main with gh. Select the deploy window the user named; if no window was given, cover the latest relevant merge rather than guessing a large range.

For each selected pull request:

1. Read its summary and completed validation/test evidence.
2. Derive the user-visible flow changed.
3. Replay that flow on staging.
4. Attribute any regression to the pull request only when evidence supports it.

Do not revive stale unchecked manual-testing sections as requirements.

4. Anonymous sweep

Run anonymous coverage only when a separate connected profile visibly reports Temporary account. Recheck the core create/edit/persistence behavior there, then return to the authenticated profile. If unavailable, report it as skipped, not failed.

5. Report and cleanup

Report:

• Objective breakage — flow, observable failure, console/network evidence, screenshot, and related pull request when established
• Worth review — visual or interaction concerns requiring judgment
• Clean — exact flows completed
• browser/profile identity, account state, and any skipped coverage
• artifacts created during testing

Ask whether to remove created artifacts. If approved, use the app's visible delete controls, reload, and confirm deletion persisted. Unlock the browser tab when finished.
