/**
* Shared E2E fixtures for the Hermes desktop Playwright suite.
*
* Two fixture modes:
*
* 1. `mockBackend` — starts a mock inference server, writes a config.yaml
* that points at it, and launches the desktop app so the full chain
* (electron → hermes serve → provider → inference → renderer) is
* exercised with a real backend but a fake LLM.
*
* 2. `noProvider` — launches the app with an empty config (no provider
* configured). The onboarding overlay should appear. Used to test the
* first-run flow without real credentials.
*
* Both modes launch the *dev* Electron app (`electron .` against the built
* `dist/`), not the packaged binary. This avoids the multi-minute
* `electron-builder --dir` step and matches `hermes desktop --source`. The
* packaged-binary path is already covered by `launch.spec.ts`.
*
* Prerequisite: `npm run build` must have been run so that `dist/` exists.
