  manualReason: Requires multi-site infrastructure across geographic locations or WAN simulation
automatable:
  - Most UI-driven configuration and verification steps via Playwright
notYet:
  - Requires multi-site infrastructure across geographic locations or WAN simulation
  - Requires external SIP endpoints or physical phones for media/audio validation
  - Hypervisor-level operations (vCenter, libvirt, vSphere) not reachable from browser automation
  - Long-running load or HA failover scenarios need dedicated lab infrastructure
