Miguel Ángel 3fa61e11c2 fix(cli): fix thumbnail generation — engine import, singleton browser, seek time
Root cause: buildChromeArgs/acquireBrowser imported from
@hyperframes/producer which does not re-export them; only
@hyperframes/engine does. All requests silently returned null.

Also: singleton shared browser (was spawning per request),
domcontentloaded instead of networkidle2, seek time 0.5→2s.
