 Do not weaken assertions, add arbitrary sleeps, retry blindly, or skip merely to pass. If behavior conflicts with the confirmed plan, preserve evidence and ask whether it is a regression or intended change. Classify unresolved failures as application defect, test defect, environment/data problem, or product decision.
 
+For every failed test, provide a concise failure summary before the classification. Extract the first actionable error (and its relevant locator, URL, or assertion when present) and map it to one primary reason:
+
+- **Element location failure** — locator found no element, timed out waiting for a locator, or strict mode matched multiple elements.
+- **Timeout/navigation or network failure** — page/action/API timed out, navigation failed, or the target was unreachable.
+- **Assertion failure** — the expected value, text, state, count, or response did not match the observed result.
+- **Test data/environment failure** — missing credentials, fixture/seed data, configuration, dependency, or incompatible runtime.
+- **Other** — no rule matches; retain the original error's first meaningful line.
+
+Use the format `Reason: <category> — <one-sentence cause>`. Do not label a failure only as “test failed” and do not hide the original error when the category is uncertain.
+
 ## Evidence
 
 Keep evidence under `.playwright-evidence/`. Prefer DOM snapshots and targeted `find` output; take screenshots only when visual evidence is necessary. Keep trace DOM snapshots, sources, network data, and attachments, but set trace `screenshots: false` to avoid hundreds of screencast JPEGs.
 
-Report the plan path, generated tests, counts when tests ran, evidence paths, and failure classification. Never report skipped or unresolved tests as success.

 Keep the official Playwright Test MCP configuration and tools generated for this role; do not remove or disable them. Prefer CLI for live page interaction and use it when those MCP tools are unavailable, so missing \`planner_*\`, \`generator_*\`, \`test_*\`, or \`browser_*\` tools must not block the phase. Do not call Chrome DevTools or an unrelated browser integration, and do not spawn a nested or same-role agent.
