Wait For Condition Node

Automation/Browser/Wait

Polls the current page until a condition holds, then continues on Met, or on Timeout when the deadline passes. Conditions: text_visible / text_gone (rendered page text contains Value), url_matches (glob with * and ?, or re:<regex>), title_contains, load_state (domcontentloaded, load, or networkidle — networkidle needs a running Network Observer), js_truthy (Value is a JavaScript function body whose return value is tested, e.g. return window.appReady === true), element_visible / element_hidden (CSS selector in Value, or a connected Locator).
