Fixes manaflow-ai/cmuxterm-hq#5179.

The latency scoreboard used to catch every browser launch error as an unstructured warning and continue. A partial Chromium/WebKit sweep could therefore look complete, including the universal “every action fits one frame” line.

This change:

• records the selected engine set before launching browsers;
• preserves each launch failure as { engine, error, stage: "launch" };
• writes expected/measured engine coverage and launch failures to JSON and the GitHub summary;
• suppresses the universal success line when engine coverage is incomplete; and
• keeps the nonblocking --ci scoreboard and explicit --engine filtering unchanged.

The launch-selection helper has focused tests for complete coverage, one-engine failure, both-engine failure, and explicit one-engine selection. No latency samples, budgets, or runtime exit policy changed.

Performance

No perf numbers: this changes latency evidence reporting only; it does not alter measured latency, budgets, or runtime performance.

Validation will run through the managed Linux webview test lane.

Summary by cubic

Fixes manaflow-ai/cmuxterm-hq#5179.

The latency scoreboard previously caught browser launch errors as unstructured warnings and continued, so a partial Chromium/WebKit sweep could look complete and even print "every action fits one frame."

This change records the selected engine set before launching, keeps each launch failure as structured { engine, error, stage } data, and writes expected/measured engine coverage plus launch failures to the JSON output and GitHub summary. The universal success line is suppressed when coverage is incomplete, replaced by a measured/expected engine count. The run now exits non-zero when engine launch coverage is incomplete (unless --no-fail), matching the existing action-budget exit. Nonblocking --ci scoreboard behavior and explicit --engine filtering (including an invalid filter) are unchanged.

The new launch-selection helper has focused tests for complete coverage, one-engine failure, both-engine failure, and explicit one-engine selection. No latency samples or budgets changed.

Review (codex gpt-6-astra high, next-review): SHIP at 6b0ed8c

No blocking findings.

Nonblocking note: The PR description says runtime exit policy is unchanged, but webviews/scripts/latency/run.ts:261 now exits nonzero for partial engine launch failures unless --ci or --no-fail is set.

[cmux-bot]

cmux-bot approves 6b0ed8c: an independent review passed this exact head (next-review receipt by teamleaderleo). A push needs a new review; a later BLOCK at this head dismisses this approval.

[teamleaderleo]

Superseded by #28156, a backlog-drain carry that keeps this PR's commits and their authorship and resolves the base merge conflict. Closing this one in its favour.
