+// Playwright + live Foundry v14 test for foundry-hooks-lib v0.3.0.
+// Verifies the things the no-Foundry smoke test CAN'T:
+//
+//   1. The library's init hook runs in Foundry's real lifecycle (not
+//      a stubbed manual init call).
+//   2. mod.api is set on game.modules.get("foundry-hooks-lib") with
+//      the documented surface (subscribe, subscribeMany, subscribeAll,
+//      unsubscribeAll, isReady, version, REGISTERED_HOOKS).
+//   3. install() at init successfully calls Hooks.on for every raw
+//      hook in the registered set — verified by reading the live
+//      Hooks event listeners via game.
+//   4. A real Foundry-fired hook (combatStart) delivers an envelope
+//      to a consumer that subscribed AFTER init.
+//   5. A real dnd5e hook (dnd5e.rollAttackV2) is in the registered
+//      set AND has a Foundry listener attached, so when consumer
+//      dnd5e systems fire it, the envelope is delivered.
+//
+// Run: `node tests/verify-hooks-lib-foundry.mjs`
+// Gate: passes before release (per tests/PLAN.md § Definition of done).
+//
+// IMPORTANT: this test requires the GM user slot on the running
+// Foundry instance. Don't run while the user is mid-session — the
+// test will sign in as Gamemaster and disrupt their work. If the
+// user's browser is already on Gamemaster, this test falls back to
+// a Player slot, and a few assertions (the ones that depend on GM
+// permissions) will be skipped (see the gms-only check at the top
+// of the assertions block).
+//
+// Prereq: foundry-hooks-lib is installed in Data/modules/ and
+// enabled in the world's core.moduleConfiguration.
