docs/reference/playwright.md: version "v1.52.0" in visual regression example uses Docker image format, not npm semver #39236

Description

@github-actions

Problem

docs/src/content/docs/reference/playwright.md contains a version format inconsistency in the Visual Regression Testing example.

Line 154 specifies version: "v1.52.0" for mode: cli:

tools:
  playwright:
    mode: cli
    version: "v1.52.0"

However, the configuration table in the same file (line 46–56) documents that CLI mode pins the @playwright/cli npm package, with a default of 0.1.13 — standard npm semver without a v prefix. The v1.52.0 format is used for Playwright browser Docker image releases (MCP/Docker mode), not the npm package.

There is no @playwright/cli npm version 1.52.0.

Impact

Enterprise users copying the visual regression example will apply a Docker-image version string to an npm package pin. This creates confusion when:

  • Debugging version pinning failures
  • Cross-referencing the configuration table in the same file
  • Understanding which package version is actually resolved

Fix

Single file change: docs/src/content/docs/reference/playwright.md

Change line 154 from:

    version: "v1.52.0"

to:

    version: "0.1.13"  # pins `@playwright/cli` npm package; see Configuration > Version

This aligns the example with the format documented in the configuration table and removes the ambiguous v prefix.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Visual regression example uses version: "0.1.13" (or another valid @playwright/cli npm version)
  • No v prefix in any CLI mode version example
  • Only docs/src/content/docs/reference/playwright.md is changed
