The Phase-1e HC2 test asserted custom_tests('custom-html', repo-local) == [] when only the
repo-local dir was set + custom-html had no cc-ci-side functional tests. Phase-2 commit bec9265
added 4 legitimate non-lifecycle test_*.py files under tests/custom-html/{functional,playwright}/
which custom_tests() now correctly returns — breaking the == [] assertion.
The custom_tests behavior is correct; the test fixture was using the real recipe name. Fix: switch
to a synthetic recipe + monkeypatch cc_ci_dir (same pattern already used in the Phase-2 sibling
test_discovery_phase2.py). 5-line change, no behavior change.
Cold-verifiable on cc-ci: cc-ci-run -m pytest tests/unit -v -> 21 passed in 5.38s
(Adversary's F2-1 repro now PASSes; no other regression).
Also: tests/n8n/PARITY.md drafted for the in-flight Q1.2 work (n8n parity port).
