Created a monitoring plan for this PR.

What this PR does: Patches a high-severity security vulnerability (GHSA-537c-gmf6-5ccf — vulnerable OpenSSL in cryptography wheels) in the CLI's browser-use sample app template. New projects scaffolded from this template will no longer include the affected dependency.

Intended effect: No production telemetry signal exists for CLI template usage — this is a template-only change with no deployed service. Confirmation is structural: the lockfile pins browser-use==0.12.3 and aiohttp==3.13.3, which resolve without the vulnerable OpenSSL transitive dependency. Manual validation (run uv sync + scaffold and execute the template) is the only applicable check.

Risks:

• browser-use API break — browser-use 0.11→0.12 may change Browser/Agent constructor signatures; alert if scaffolded template fails to run (ImportError or TypeError at startup)
• aiohttp 3.13.x incompatibility — transitive bump from 3.12.15 to 3.13.3; alert if uv sync fails or generated app raises aiohttp-related exceptions at startup
• lockfile resolution failure on edge Python versions — pinned wheels may be missing for some platforms; alert if uv sync errors on supported Python ≥3.11 runtimes
