Candidate: Storybook method picker help links use production docs while live deployed picker uses GitHub Pages docs

Summary

Published Storybook method picker examples link their Open documentation help links to https://anywaydata.com/..., while the live deployed generator method picker links equivalent commands to https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/site/docs/....

This may be intentional if Storybook is production-facing, but it is inconsistent inside the deployed review environment and can send reviewers out of the test deployment while app/generator picker help stays within it.

Environment

• Deployed app/generator: https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/generator.html
• Deployed Storybook: https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/storybook/
• PR: https://github.com/eviltester/grid-table-editor/pull/247
• Issue: https://github.com/eviltester/grid-table-editor/issues/230

Evidence

Live deployed generator method picker samples:

• internet.password link: https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/site/docs/test-data/domain/internet
• commerce.price link: https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/site/docs/test-data/domain/commerce
• helpers.arrayElement link: https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/site/docs/test-data/faker/helpers

Storybook iframe samples:

• shared-method-picker-dialog--help-display-with-usage Open documentation link: https://anywaydata.com/docs/test-data/domain/internet
• shared-method-picker-dialog--visual-always-open Open documentation link: https://anywaydata.com/docs/test-data/faker/helpers

• ../screenshots/docs-consistency-storybook-shared-method-picker-dialog--visual-always-open.png

Reproduction

1. Open https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/generator.html.
2. Change the schema row type to domain.
3. Open the method picker.
4. Search for and select internet.password.
5. Observe the Open documentation link uses the GitHub Pages /grid-table-editor/site/docs/... base.
6. Open https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/storybook/iframe.html?id=shared-method-picker-dialog--help-display-with-usage&viewMode=story.
7. Observe the Open documentation link uses the production https://anywaydata.com/docs/... base.

Impact

Low to medium depending on intended behavior. If deployed Storybook is meant to mirror the deployed test environment, the link base mismatch weakens docs/help consistency and may hide branch-specific docs changes from reviewers. If Storybook is intentionally production-facing, classify this as accepted behavior and not a defect.

Suggested follow-up

Decide whether Storybook stories should receive the same deployed docs base as the app/generator shell. If yes, update Storybook story setup or help-model docs URL normalization so Open documentation stays inside the GitHub Pages deployment during PR review.

Fixed in eviltester/grid-table-editor commit 334865b9.

What changed:

• Storybook now resolves @anywaydata/site-config through the same override path used by the main app build.
• The test environment build now passes the generated site-config override into both the app Vite build and the Storybook build.
• Added Jest coverage proving the Storybook alias uses the testenv override and keeps the same GitHub Pages docs base normalization as the app.

Verification performed:

• Focused Jest for testenv/site-config coverage: passed.
• pnpm run testenv:create: passed.
• Browser check against built testenv Storybook confirmed the Method Picker help link renders as https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/site/docs/test-data/domain/internet.
• pnpm run verify:ui: passed.
• pnpm run verify:local: passed.

Published to the test environment via Publish Test Environment run 28222041866, which completed successfully and deployed to https://eviltester.github.io/grid-table-editor/.
