Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe pull request adds WSL2 support for the Test Harness. It provides WSL validation and script synchronization checks, WSL-specific machine configuration, local backend, frontend, and SDK image builds, and a WSL update script. The installer reuses Ubuntu dependency scripts, skips unsupported Wi-Fi configuration, replaces reboot behavior with logout instructions, and defers SDK and test-collection setup. New documentation covers prerequisites, installation, startup, maintenance, limitations, and troubleshooting. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds a WSL2 installation and local image-build path, but valid setups can still fail when the checkout path contains spaces, when running under WSL1 or a non-ubuntu user, or after a partially failed install; the SDK override also executes a caller-selected upstream Dockerfile with elevated Docker access. These bounded correctness, host-configuration, and supply-chain risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Restore needrestart settings when an install step fails.
If the dependency script succeeds and a later step fails, verify_return_code exits before Lines 91-93 run. The installer then leaves the needrestart configuration modified. Register cleanup immediately after the configuration change, such as with an EXIT trap, and restore the prior file state.
Also applies to: 60-61, 87-93

Quote repository paths before shell expansion.
A checkout such as ~/Test Harness fails because unquoted command substitutions, variables, and script-path arguments split the path. Quote the nested dirname result, ROOT_DIR, configuration-file paths, every WSL script invocation, and the generated systemd ExecStart path at the listed sites.

Do not hard-code the service group.
User=$USER supports arbitrary WSL users, but Group=ubuntu does not. If the installing user has no ubuntu group, matter-th.service cannot start and the backend and frontend containers do not start through the enabled service. Derive the group from the installing user or remove the explicit Group= setting.
As per supplied code context, scripts/start.sh:86-96 starts the backend and frontend containers.

Reject WSL1 before provisioning.
WSLInterop is registered in both WSL1 and WSL2. A WSL1 session can therefore pass require_wsl and continue into the WSL2-only Docker and systemd steps. Add a WSL2-specific check, with an explicit supported override for custom WSL2 kernels. (github.com)

Running the Test Harness UI/CLI on WSL2 (development/test)
This WSL2 setup takes care of the following issues that would otherwise be up to the developer to discover and work around when trying to use the original install on WSL:

The published images are arm64 only today; once the release workflow of #1079 produces multi-arch pins, the stock pulls work on amd64 and that part of the WSL procedure can be dropped. The SDK image build remains (published arm64-only by the SDK project).
