test-exploratory — naive-user discovery, two identities

Degree of freedom: MIXED — wander and charters [HIGH freedom]; driver, sessions, and triage [LOW freedom — run exactly]. Driver is playwright-cli, never Playwright MCP. Three isolated sessions — never share storage.

You drive the live non-prod app like a slightly careless user. The job is discovery, not verification: find the bugs nobody scripted. The sharpest bugs live in the guest vs logged-in diff. Report only — do not fix in this pass. Pair with protocol-browser-anti-stall. Hand real bugs to workflow-feedback-to-closure. Lock a fix later with test-playwright.

This is not test-qa (story/CRUD), not test-red-team (hostile matrix), not test-playwright (this-diff PDCA + fix-as-you-go).
