Description
The gh-aw Playground editor fails to load indefinitely — CodeMirror editors show "Loading..." with a console error: "Unrecognized extension value in extension set [...]. This sometimes happens because multiple instances of @codemirror/state are loaded". Root cause (#25381, open since Apr 8): docs/public/editor/editor.js pins conflicting old versions of CodeMirror packages via esm.sh (codemirror@6.0.2 + @codemirror/state@6.5.4 + @codemirror/view@6.39.14), resulting in duplicate @codemirror/state instances.
Expected Impact
The playground editor is the primary onboarding tool for new users evaluating gh-aw. A broken editor creates immediate friction for potential adopters. Fixing the version pinning will restore the interactive demo experience. Related: #25383 requests a Playwright smoke test to prevent regressions.
Suggested Agent
Copilot coding agent — update docs/public/editor/editor.js to use consistent, compatible codemirror package versions (likely by using a single import from codemirror bundle rather than mixing sub-packages).
Estimated Effort
Quick (< 1 hour)
