Currently, Playground exposes flags to run Contender, essentially wrapping Contender's configuration options. The problem is that Contender's scope can be very vast. Forcing Playground to expose and maintain all these flags creates a tight coupling where Playground needs to understand Contender's entire API surface.
The new proposed approach would be to flip the integration direction - have Contender integrate with Playground instead.
Contender would have something like --playground ./folder, which would read the folder's metadata (specifically RPC endpoints) to understand the execution context that Playground has set up.
