domain-skills/united: full checkout flow

[bilaldaqqah]

End-to-end booking on united.com: search → fare → traveler → seatmap → checkout, all in one session.

Highlights

• Akamai is present but NOT blocking when driving from the user's real persistent Chrome via CDP. _abck cookie stays ~0~ (unflagged) through every step. No sensor_data
  challenge, no 403/429, no PerimeterX. This contradicts what stock Playwright typically sees on this site.
• Coordinate-click trap: click(x, y) on the homepage Find-flights submit and fare-drawer Select buttons is pixel-correct but React's synthetic-event handler never fires. Switch
  to element.click() via js() — works everywhere.
• Basic Economy ack checkbox: Select button is silently disabled="" until an unlabeled ack checkbox inside .basicFooter--* is clicked.
• Name-based selectors: IDs are UUIDs, but input[name="rtiTraveler.travelers[0].firstName|...]" and input[name="commonpayment.cardInfo.cardNumber|expiryDate|..."] are stable.
• No tokenization iframe for PAN/CVV — direct <input type=tel> elements.
• #stateFilter is an autocomplete text input, not a select.

Summary by cubic

Adds a united.com flight checkout skill doc focused on reliable automation from real Chrome (CDP). Covers the full flow with stable selectors, JS click guidance, and Akamai notes (no _abck flagging), plus small fixes to selectors and waits.

• New Features

  • URL map for home → search → fare → travelers → seats → checkout with cartId.
  • Stable selectors for search widget, fare drawer, traveler form, and payment fields.
  • Interaction guidance: prefer element.click(); use coordinate clicks only to focus text inputs.
  • Notes on Basic Economy acknowledgment checkbox and #stateFilter autocomplete.
  • Wait tips for React hydration and animations to avoid flaky probes.
  • Anti-bot: Akamai cookies (_abck, bm_*) present but not flagged; no login required to reach card entry.

• Bug Fixes

  • Corrected regex grouping for fare price button selector.
  • Tuned sleep ranges after transitions and autocompletes to reduce flakiness.
