[instructions] Sync instruction files with release v0.87.10

[github-actions]

Summary

Latest release: v0.87.10 (2026-08-31). gh api repos/github/gh-aw/compare/v0.87.10...main showed relevant changes: the built-in Playwright tool's MCP mode was fully removed (CLI-only now), a new on.cooldown trigger field shipped, stop-after gained GitHub Actions expression support, and four trajectory graders (exploration-error, exploitation-error, skill-constraint-coverage, tool-output-consumption-rate) were missing from the grader-selection guidance.

Files changed

File	Before → After	Change
.github/aw/syntax-core.md	170 → 171	Document new on.cooldown field; note stop-after now accepts a GitHub Actions expression
.github/aw/visual-regression.md	66 → 67	Fix example using a non-existent tools.playwright.allowed_domains field (not in schema) — replaced with the correct top-level network.allowed: [local, playwright]
.github/aw/mcp-clis.md	55 → 54	Replace stale playwright MCP-tool-name example (browser_navigate/browser_snapshot, removed in the CLI-only migration, and conceptually wrong — the built-in playwright tool isn't mounted via cli-proxy) with a github cli-proxy example
.github/aw/intent.md	84 → 84	Add the 4 missing trace graders to the selection guidance

All 4 files remain well under their size targets (syntax-core.md < 400, others have no listed cap but stay small).

Documentation/code reviewed

• docs/src/content/docs/reference/playwright.md (CLI-only migration, new playwright-cli subcommand names, MCP migration table)
• docs/src/content/docs/troubleshooting/common-issues.md (Playwright troubleshooting rewritten for CLI mode)
• docs/src/content/docs/reference/glossary.md (new on.cooldown, stop-after expression support, Trajectory IR / Trajectory Graders entries)
• docs/src/content/docs/reference/frontmatter-full.md (playwright schema, new organization-custom-org-roles/organization-custom-repository-roles permissions — no instruction-file change needed, existing permission list is explicitly "not exhaustive")
• docs/adr/57521-remove-built-in-playwright-mcp-support.md
• pkg/parser/schemas/main_workflow_schema.json (confirmed tools.playwright only accepts version/args/mode, and mode: mcp is rejected)
• .github/workflows/shared/graders/README.md (confirmed catalog of 25 trajectory graders vs. intent.md's list)

Audits performed

• Size audit: wc -l .github/aw/*.md — all files under their target limits, before and after edits.
• Duplication audit: no new duplication introduced; playwright/network guidance kept in its existing single-source files (syntax-tools-imports.md, network.md) with cross-references, not restated.
• Accuracy audit: confirmed against the JSON schema and grader catalog; no other stale mode: mcp or old playwright subcommand-name references remain anywhere in .github/aw/.

Not changed (reviewed, no action needed)

• safe-outputs*.md and pkg/workflow/safe_outputs_*.go — no safe-outputs-related files changed in the release diff; index/detail files already consistent.
• Blog posts and agent-factory-status.mdx — informational, no instruction-file impact beyond what's covered above.
