kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 27a7e8cceb test(nextcloud): retry the standalone login once inside the helper
Three Playwright workers run three spec files at once, and on a fresh instance the first OIDC callback is what provisions the Nextcloud account. Concurrent callbacks then race on INSERT INTO oc_users for the same uid: one wins, the losers answer HTTP 500. The exception is SQLSTATE[23000] 1062 Duplicate entry 'keycloak-<sub>' for key 'PRIMARY', raised from the sociallogin app's ProviderService through OC\User\Manager::createUser, and it is visible both in the CI rescue bundle of run 34653754175 and in the container log of a local variant-1 deploy.

The race is self-closing: once any insert wins, the window is shut for the rest of the run. It has never turned a job red, because Playwright's retries absorb it and a flaky-only run exits 0. What it costs is a rerun of the whole spec file, 1.8 minutes for fileslibreofficeedit against a 42 second first attempt, plus a flaky line in every report.

Retrying inside the helper keeps that cost to one login. The base entry point now makes a second attempt after a five second pause, which resolveTimeout stretches to twenty five over Tor, and the observed failures abort after thirty to forty two seconds against a nine hundred second budget, so the second attempt has room. A persistent failure still fails, and the first attempt's message is appended to the second rather than swallowed, which the old wrapper's bare catch did not do.

loginToStandaloneNextcloudWithRetry is gone: a helper of that name beside a base that retries is a trap, and its five callers now reach the same two attempts through the base. The other forty eight addon specs gain the retry without being touched.

Rejected alternatives, each against a written constraint: a serial globalSetup would have to live in the playwright.config.js that 87 roles share and would force ignoreHTTPSErrors into the central use block; PLAYWRIGHT_WORKERS=1 reverses the measured Tor tuning in playwright_workers.py and leaks through an unnamed include_vars into every later role; pre-creating the account collides with prevent_create_email_exists and turns a one-off flake into a permanent login refusal.
