CLI `--ignore-https-errors` flag is documented but missing in released v0.1.13

[heroesm]

Description

The Agent CLI Configuration documentation lists --ignore-https-errors as an available option for the open command:

playwright-cli open --ignore-https-errors          # ignore HTTPS errors

However, this flag is not recognized by the currently released version 0.1.13 of @playwright/cli.

Reproduction Steps

1. Install the latest version globally:

   npm install -g @playwright/cli@latest

2. Check the version:

   playwright-cli --version
   # Output: 0.1.13

3. Run open --help and observe available flags:

   playwright-cli open --help

   Output:

   Options:
     --browser                   browser or chrome channel to use, possible values: chrome, firefox, webkit, msedge.
     --config                    path to the configuration file, defaults to .playwright/cli.config.json
     --headed                    run browser in headed mode
     --persistent                use persistent browser profile
     --profile                   path to a persistent user data directory.
   

4. Attempt to use the flag:

   playwright-cli open --ignore-https-errors https://example.com

   Output:

   Error: unknown option: ignore-https-errors
   

Expected Behavior

The --ignore-https-errors flag should be accepted by the CLI and passed to the underlying Playwright browser context, as documented.

Actual Behavior

The flag is rejected as unknown.

Investigation

Looking at the released npm package (@playwright/cli@0.1.13), the help.json defines the following flags for the open command:

"flags": {
  "browser": "string",
  "config": "string",
  "headed": "boolean",
  "persistent": "boolean",
  "profile": "string"
}

The ignore-https-errors flag is absent. The same documentation page also lists --device, --viewport-size, --proxy-server, --proxy-bypass, and --user-agent as open flags; all of these are similarly unrecognized by the CLI.

Workaround

Users can configure ignoreHTTPSErrors via the JSON config file (.playwright/cli.config.json):

{
  "browser": {
    "contextOptions": {
      "ignoreHTTPSErrors": true
    }
  }
}

However, this is less convenient than a direct CLI flag, especially for ad-hoc commands or CI environments.
