Live testing showed the CDP approach still fails hCaptcha even with a
real human clicking through chrome://inspect: the headless Chromium's
own fingerprint (HeadlessChrome user-agent, navigator.webdriver=true)
is what gets flagged, independent of who's driving it. Trying to
disguise that browser to get past bot detection would be captcha
evasion, not a session-handling technique, so that path is dropped
entirely rather than patched further.
New flow: log into MassPrice with an ordinary, non-automated browser
(hCaptcha passes normally), export the session's cookies with a
extension, and paste them into the Session page. import_cookies()
converts the export into Playwright's storage_state shape and verifies
it actually authenticates against the live site before saving it,
so a bad paste never clobbers a working session. This also removes the
now-unnecessary socat proxy / debug port exposure — Chromium's own
CDP port was only ever needed for the dropped approach.

Live testing against the real site found MassPrice's login is behind
hCaptcha, which silently blocks fully automated username/password
login outright (the form never submits) — no selector fix could work
around this. Also fixed the broken _is_logged_out() heuristic: an
unauthenticated visit to /Rule/List redirects to the public marketing
homepage, not a /login URL, so run_rule/list_rules were silently
scraping the wrong page instead of erroring.
New flow: a Session page lets the user start a headless-but-CDP-exposed
Chromium instance, log in themselves via chrome://inspect (solving the
captcha as a real click), then capture that browser's cookies into the
same auth_state.json scheduled runs already use. Required a socat proxy
in the container image, since Chromium's debug port binds loopback-only
regardless of --remote-debugging-address (confirmed by live testing),
unreachable through Docker's port mapping without it. All Playwright
objects for this now live on one dedicated thread (automation.py's
_debug_worker), since the sync API isn't safe to call across the
arbitrary threads gunicorn's gthread workers hand out per request.
Dashboard now shows a banner when the latest run failed specifically
due to a missing/expired session, rather than just looking like an
empty rule list.

arr-summary's own docs say 5055, but it's really deployed on 5056
(confirmed via docker ps on the Unraid box), which collided with
massprice's original default.

Drives massprice.tcgplayer.com's Run Rule action per-rule on a
user-configured schedule (multiple times/day, day-of-week toggles),
replacing MassPrice's native scheduler (capped at 15 schedules
account-wide, one run/day, with observed clock drift). Deployed via
Forgejo push-to-deploy on Unraid, matching arr-summary/card-grader.
