+# Copilot Instructions
+
+## Application Under Test
+
+Testspace (s2testorg.stridespace.com) — a test management SaaS.
+
+## Hamburger / Options Menu (DETAILS[data-url])
+
+Projects, Spaces, and other list items expose a hamburger menu via a `<details data-url="/resource/:id/menu">` element inside each table row. Menu content is **AJAX-fetched** when the details element opens.
+
+```javascript
+// Find the row by item name
+const row = page.locator('tr', { has: page.getByText(itemName, { exact: true }) });
+
+// Hover, then click the <summary> element via page.evaluate —
+// clicking <summary> is the reliable semantic toggle for <details data-url>;
+// page.evaluate bypasses Playwright's visibility constraints
+await row.hover();
+await page.evaluate((name) => {
+  const link = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('tr a')).find(a => a.textContent.trim() === name);
+  const row = link?.closest('tr');
+  row?.querySelector('details summary')?.click();
+}, itemName);
+
+// Wait for AJAX menu content (scoped to row), then click the action —
+// CRITICAL: scope the querySelector to the row — document.querySelector will hit the first
+// (possibly empty) .options-menu in DOM order, which may not be the one that just loaded
+await row.locator('.options-menu').waitFor({ state: 'visible' });
+await page.evaluate((name) => {
+  const link = Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('tr a')).find(a => a.textContent.trim() === name);
+  const row = link?.closest('tr');
+  row?.querySelector('.options-menu a[data-method="delete"]')?.click();
+}, itemName);
+```
+
+## Confirmation Dialog (overmind)
+
+Destructive actions (delete, etc.) open a confirmation dialog injected via `data-remote="true"` XHR. The dialog re-renders after injection — Playwright's normal `.click()` fails with "element was detached from DOM".
+
+```javascript
+// Wait on the button (not just the container — the container shell pre-exists empty)
+await page.locator('.overmind-dialog-container button[type="submit"]').waitFor({ state: 'visible' });
+// Dispatch click synchronously in-page to bypass detachment retries
+await page.evaluate(() => {
+  document.querySelector('.overmind-dialog-container button[type="submit"]').click();
+});
+// After destructive confirmation, do an explicit goto to bypass Turbolinks cache-preview —
+// Turbolinks may serve a stale cached page before the real GET completes, causing assertions
+// to run against old DOM. page.goto forces a fresh server-rendered response.
+await page.goto(BASE_URL + '/expected-path');
+await page.waitForLoadState('domcontentloaded');
+```
