+# PR_11_318C Report
+
+## Purpose
+Move Playwright outputs from defaults into `tests/results/**` via config-only changes.
+
+## Files Changed
+- `playwright.config.cjs`
+- `docs/pr/PR_11_318C_PLAYWRIGHT_OUTPUT_DIRS/PLAN_PR.md`
+- `docs/pr/PR_11_318C_PLAYWRIGHT_OUTPUT_DIRS/BUILD_PR.md`
+- `docs/dev/reports/PR_11_318C_report.md`
+- `docs/dev/codex_commands.md`
+- `docs/dev/commit_comment.txt`
+
+## Implementation Summary
+- Config now routes Playwright outputs under `tests/results/**`:
+  - test artifacts: `tests/results/artifacts`
+  - HTML report: `tests/results/report`
+- Kept existing run options:
+  - `headless: false`
+  - `slowMo: 500`
+  - `trace: "on"`
+- Scoped Playwright discovery to `tests/ui` to run UI specs only when invoking `npx playwright test`.
+
+## Validation Commands
+- `node --check playwright.config.cjs` -> **PASS**
+- `npx playwright test` -> **PASS**
+
+## Output Verification
+- `tests/results/` exists -> **YES**
+- `tests/results/report/index.html` exists -> **YES**
+- `tests/results/artifacts/.../trace.zip` exists -> **YES**
+- `test-results/` created -> **NO**
+- `playwright-report/` created -> **NO**
+
+## Constraint Note
+- A direct combination of `outputDir = tests/results` and HTML reporter `outputFolder = tests/results/report` is rejected by Playwright due folder-clash protection.
+- Final config keeps all output in `tests/results/**` without using default output folders.

+# BUILD_PR_11_318C
+
+## Implementation
+- Updated `playwright.config.cjs`:
+  - `testDir: "tests/ui"`
+  - `outputDir: "tests/results/artifacts"`
+  - HTML reporter output:
+    - `tests/results/report`
+  - Preserved:
+    - `headless: false`
+    - `launchOptions.slowMo: 500`
+    - `trace: "on"`
+
+## Notes
+- Playwright rejects a config where HTML output folder is nested under the same root as `outputDir` when both are the same directory tree root (`tests/results`), because HTML reporter clears its output folder and can erase artifacts.
+- This config keeps all outputs under `tests/results/**` while avoiding reporter/outputDir collision.
+
+## Validation
+- `node --check playwright.config.cjs`
+- `npx playwright test`

+# PLAN_PR_11_318C
+
+## Purpose
+Redirect Playwright outputs away from default folders into `tests/results/**` with scoped config-only changes.
+
+## Scope
+- `playwright.config.cjs`
+- `docs/dev/reports/PR_11_318C_report.md`
+- `docs/dev/codex_commands.md`
+- `docs/dev/commit_comment.txt`
+
+## Steps
+1. Update Playwright config output paths to `tests/results/**`.
+2. Keep existing execution behavior options (`headless:false`, `slowMo`, `trace:on`).
+3. Ensure `npx playwright test` uses UI test lane only and avoids writing to `test-results/` or `playwright-report/`.
+4. Run required validation commands.
