Deploy Research Workbench / deploy (push) Failing after 10m12s
fix: browser integration for AI research agent
- Dockerfile: Install Google Chrome stable instead of Playwright npm package
  (playwright-cli defaults to /opt/google/chrome/chrome path). Removed unused
  Playwright npm package, kept Playwright Python for page automation.

- bundle/bundle.md: Fix orchestrator config override with correct key path
  (session.orchestrator.config.extended_thinking: false) to properly override
  foundation's extended_thinking: true default, which was causing empty
  AI text responses.

- bundle/agents/researcher.md: Add strong pre-installed environment guardrail
  telling agent NOT to install packages. Add explicit bash() tool call examples
  showing correct playwright-cli syntax. Fix snapshot command (removed non-existent
  -ic flag), change 'type' to 'fill' for form field syntax.

- bundle/context/researcher-instructions.md: Enrich from thin pointer to
  concrete examples with correct bash() wrapping and actual playwright-cli
  commands. Add 'do NOT install' guardrail.

Validated: Agent now opens Chrome browser during research queries, noVNC panel
shows live browser activity, AI generates text responses properly.

# Research Workbench — Session Context
This session runs inside the **Research Workbench**. You have access to the
following capabilities:
## CRITICAL: Pre-installed Tools
All tools are **already installed**. Do NOT run npm install, pip install, or any
package manager. Just use the commands directly via the bash tool.
## Browser Control
Live Chromium browser controlled via `playwright-cli -s=research` through the
bash tool. The browser is persistent across commands and visible to the user via
the noVNC panel. The user can take over at any time.
**Quick start — open a site and see what's on it:**
```
bash("playwright-cli -s=research open https://google.com")
bash("playwright-cli -s=research snapshot")
```
**Click an element from the snapshot:**
```
bash("playwright-cli -s=research click @e5")
bash("playwright-cli -s=research snapshot")
```
**Type into a field and submit:**
```
bash("playwright-cli -s=research fill @e3 \"search query\"")
bash("playwright-cli -s=research press Enter")
bash("playwright-cli -s=research snapshot")
```
Always snapshot after navigation to get fresh element refs.
## Artifacts
Persistent markdown documents written to `artifacts/<session_id>/`.
They appear in the right panel and survive across sessions.
## A2UI
Inline interactive controls (filter chips, tables, card grids, forms)
rendered directly in chat via `a2ui` code blocks.
## Inline Visuals
Rich visual output (charts, maps, comparison tables with color
coding) rendered directly in chat via `visual` code blocks.
## Research Workflow
1. Understand the request — clarify scope and constraints
2. Plan — identify 2-4 sources to consult
3. Browse and extract — use playwright-cli via bash to navigate sites and extract data
4. Present — use A2UI, visuals, or artifacts to deliver results
