Post mortem: browser checks failing to report results

A bug in a Playwright script caused an error log to overflow, resulting in data loss for one customer's account. The issue was triggered by "out of control" error generation, which normally does not cause problems. Effective monitoring and alerting mechanisms were lacking, requiring customer input to identify the issue. A quick fix was implemented to truncate the responsible payload, and additional logging and alerting measures have been added to prevent similar issues in the future.
