Quarantines mcp-server-tab.spec.ts:6 ("user should be able to manage MCP server tools and configuration") as prevention, per CONTRIBUTING.mdTriage protocol, step 2.

Spun out of daily-failure triage #1330 (run 31093877484, 2026-08-06). The investigation is tracked in #1335 — this PR does not fix anything.

Why

Recurrent flake: same signature on two dailies inside the 30-day window.

Daily Signature
2026-08-05 TimeoutError: locator.click: Timeout 3000ms exceeded.
2026-08-06 TimeoutError: locator.click: Timeout 3000ms exceeded.

The wait is a 3 s click budget on mcp-server-dropdown in the shared helper tests/helpers/mcp/open-add-mcp-server-modal.ts:10. (A third hit on 2026-07-27 carries a different signature and does not count toward the criterion.)

Why both edits, not just the tag

@stable removal alone only stops the daily. pr-validation.yml selects specs by file diff, not by tag (#871) — so the test would still run red on the impacted-specs gate, starting with this very PR. test.fixme skips it in every context, which is what makes the quarantine hold and this PR merge green.

Not touched

  • QA-CHECKLIST.md bullets: the spec still exists and still has a mirrored doc, so check:checklist-coverage still requires them. Generated blocks are regenerated on merge by update-coverage-summary.yml.
  • The spec doc: per CONTRIBUTING.md, the traceability record for a quarantine cycle is the triage issue + the dedicated issue + the restoration PR.

Lifting the quarantine (remove test.fixme + restore @stable, re-validated) is a deliverable of #1335.

…1335)

`mcp-server-tab.spec.ts:6` flaked on the 2026-08-05 and 2026-08-06 dailies
with the same signature — `locator.click: Timeout 3000ms exceeded` waiting for
`mcp-server-dropdown`, whose 3 s budget lives in the shared helper
`helpers/mcp/open-add-mcp-server-modal.ts:10`. Two same-signature occurrences
inside the 30-day window is the recurrent-flake criterion, so the test is
quarantined as prevention (CONTRIBUTING.md -> Triage protocol, step 2).

Quarantine is both edits together: `@stable` removal alone only stops the
daily, leaving the test red on the pr-validation impacted-specs gate, which
selects by file diff rather than by tag (#871) — including this PR. `test.fixme`
skips it in every context.

Lifting the quarantine (remove `test.fixme` + restore `@stable`) is a
deliverable of #1335, not of this PR. The QA-CHECKLIST bullets are untouched:
the spec still exists and still carries a mirrored doc, so the coverage guard
still requires them.

Triage: #1330 (run 31093877484).

Pull request overview

This PR quarantines a recurrently flaky MCP server UI test by converting it to test.fixme(...) and removing its @stable tag, preventing it from running in all lanes while investigation proceeds under #1335.

Changes:

  • Mark mcp-server-tab.spec.ts test as test.fixme(...) with an in-file quarantine note referencing #1335.
  • Remove @stable from the test’s tag list to ensure it no longer counts as validated/stable coverage.
