description	Build, serve, and drive the built pardonned site to verify UI changes at the browser surface.

Verifying pardonned changes

Static Astro site — there is no server runtime. Verify against the built dist/ in a real browser.

Build & serve

pnpm build                                  # needs data/pardonned.db (see CLAUDE.md)
cd dist && python3 -m http.server 8123 --bind 127.0.0.1   # run in background

Drive

playwright is already a devDependency (used by the scraper) with Chromium installed — write a throwaway .mjs in the repo root (so node resolves playwright from node_modules), run with node, delete after.

Key flows live in inline scripts on the pages (e.g. /search/ filter/sort/pagination state is all client-side, synced to URL params via history.replaceState).

Gotchas

• PostHog stubbing: the built pages embed the real PostHog snippet, which does window.posthog = e and clobbers any stub installed via addInitScript. To observe posthog.capture calls, patch after load: page.evaluate(() => { window.posthog = { ...window.posthog, capture: (n, p) => window.__ev.push({n, p}) } }).
• Windowed pagination on /search: only pages 1, 2, …, last are clickable from page 1. To reach a deep page, load it via ?page=N in the URL or click Next repeatedly.
• Astro dev vs build: pnpm dev works too, but URL-state behavior should be verified against the production build since inline scripts are what ship.
