Doar MihaiandClaude Sonnet 5 0154c058af polish: trim unknown-arg echo, document trace artifacts and unverified selectors
Addresses whole-branch review's minor findings:
- Unknown CLI arguments now echo only the flag name, not its value, so a
  mistyped flag (e.g. --pasword=secret) can't leak a credential into the
  error output.
- README now notes that failed runs retain a screenshot/trace under
  test-results/ (gitignored, may contain the username but not the masked
  password), and points at the UNVERIFIED post-composer selectors as the
  first thing to check during real home-network verification.

# Reddit Post Sidecar
A Playwright acceptance test that logs into Reddit with supplied credentials
and creates a text post in a given subreddit.
## One-time setup
cd sidecars/reddit-post
npm install
npx playwright install chromium
## Usage
./run.sh --username=YOUR_USERNAME --password=YOUR_PASSWORD \
--subreddit=test --title="Hello" --body="Post body text" [--headed]
Prints a single JSON line to stdout and exits 0 on success, exits 1 on
failure:
{"success": true, "url": "https://www.reddit.com/r/test/comments/.../"}
{"success": false, "error": "Login did not complete — possible CAPTCHA or 2FA prompt"}
## Notes
- On a failed run, Playwright retains a screenshot and trace under
`test-results/` for debugging (`npx playwright show-trace test-results/.../trace.zip`).
These are gitignored and not committed, but they persist on disk and may
contain the username you passed in (the password field is masked in the
browser, so its value isn't captured). Clear `test-results/` if you want
to remove them.
- The post-composer selectors (text-post tab, title/body fields, submit
button) are marked `UNVERIFIED` in `tests/reddit-post.spec.js` — they've
only been confirmed as far as this sidecar's original development
environment could reach live Reddit before being network-blocked. If a
real run on your own network fails after a successful login, start by
checking those selectors with:
`npx playwright codegen https://www.reddit.com/r/test/submit`
