The onboardingQuickSetupExperimentJun3 A/B experiment won, so the reinstaller quick-setup screen is now shown unconditionally on the skip path (reinstallers / sync-restore users who tap "I've been here before" and skip). Removes the experiment manager, feature toggle, and the search-retention metrics plugin, drops the skipFork branching so the skip path always switches to the quick-setup plan, and cleans up the now-dead "skip onboarding option" code in the new orchestrator flow. The shared PreOnboardingDialogType.SKIP_ONBOARDING_OPTION, its pixels, and the legacy WelcomePage flow are kept untouched. Also removes the experiment entry from the local privacy config and the e2e disable-patch plus its CI flag, and updates the affected unit tests.

…s skip-onboarding tests (#9200) Task/Issue URL: https://app.asana.com/1/137249556945/project/1211724162604201/task/1214735718762065?focus=true Tech Design URL (if applicable): ### Description The returning-user "I've been here before" flow now leads to the quick setup screen (address bar position, search options, default browser, widget) instead of the old tutorial/start-browsing dialogs. The two release-blocking Maestro tests asserting the old dialog copy no longer match the app's behavior, so this replaces them with coverage of the new quick setup flow: - `preonboarding_returning_user_quick_setup_customize.yaml` — selects bottom address bar position and "search only", sets DuckDuckGo as default, then taps Start Browsing and asserts the address bar renders at the bottom of the screen. - `preonboarding_returning_user_quick_setup_start_browsing.yaml` — taps Start Browsing without customizing anything. Both are gated behind a new remote config patch (`remote_config_patches/enable_onboarding_quick_setup_experiment_treatment.json`) that forces the `onboardingQuickSetupExperimentJun3` cohort to treatment. The patch will be removed once #9181 is merged. ### Steps to test this PR Maestro cloud run: https://app.maestro.dev/project/proj_01htg54rdtfwx8rgbzv03cxkpf/maestro-test/app/app_01hkqhj1thevwtn9ym8a2ctn2r/upload/mupload_01kxngkd87e9694n996dcc2162 _Maestro coverage_ - [x] Build an internal APK with the config patch applied: `./gradlew installInternalRelease -Pconfig_patches=.maestro/onboarding/remote_config_patches/enable_onboarding_quick_setup_experiment_treatment.json` - [x] Run `maestro test .maestro/onboarding/preonboarding_returning_user_quick_setup_customize.yaml` and confirm it passes, including the new bottom-address-bar assertion after Start Browsing - [x] Run `maestro test .maestro/onboarding/preonboarding_returning_user_quick_setup_start_browsing.yaml` and confirm it passes ### UI changes | Before | After | | ------ | ----- | | No UI changes | No UI changes | <!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY --> --- > [!NOTE] > **Low Risk** > Changes are limited to Maestro flows and nightly CI config; no production app logic. > > **Overview** > Updates **Maestro** coverage for the returning-user **“I’ve been here before”** path now that it lands on **quick setup** instead of the old skip/tutorial dialogs. > > **Removes** `preonboarding_returning_user_show_tutorial.yaml` and `preonboarding_returning_user_start_browsing.yaml` (they asserted obsolete copy). **Adds** `preonboarding_returning_user_quick_setup_start_browsing.yaml` and `preonboarding_returning_user_quick_setup_customize.yaml`, tagged `onboardingNonReleaseBlockingTest`, covering Start Browsing as-is and a customize path (address bar position, search-only, default browser) with a bottom-toolbar assertion after launch. > > **CI:** Nightly non-blockers workflow applies `enable_onboarding_quick_setup_experiment_treatment.json` via `-Pconfig_patches` (forces `onboardingQuickSetupExperimentJun3` to treatment) and runs a new **Onboarding** Maestro job with that tag. > > <sup>Reviewed by [Cursor Bugbot](https://cursor.com/bugbot) for commit f70eb79.

Description
The
onboardingQuickSetupExperimentJun3A/B experiment won, so we're making the reinstaller quick-setup screen permanent and removing all the experiment machinery.Previously the quick-setup screen was shown only to the TREATMENT cohort for reinstallers / sync-restore users who tapped "I've been here before" and then skipped; the CONTROL cohort saw the old "skip onboarding option" screen (Start Browsing / Show Tutorial). The skip path now unconditionally switches to the quick-setup plan. Now we deleted the experiment manager, the
OnboardingQuickSetupTogglesfeature toggle, and the search-retention metrics plugin and all re-installers who skip the oboarding are routed through the quick setup.Steps to test this PR
Reinstaller skip path always shows quick-setup
Legacy welcome page unaffected (brand-design update off)
UI changes
No UI changes
Note
Medium Risk
Changes first-run onboarding routing for reinstall/sync-skip users and deletes experiment telemetry; scope is large but centered on onboarding orchestration rather than auth or payments.
Overview
After the onboardingQuickSetupExperimentJun3 A/B test, returning users who skip onboarding (reinstall welcome or sync-restore skip) always go to the quick-setup screen instead of an experiment fork or the old “Start Browsing / Show Tutorial” skip onboarding option step.
The PR removes the experiment stack (
OnboardingQuickSetupExperimentManager,OnboardingQuickSetupToggles, search-retention metrics plugin), the separate skip plan and related events/dialogs/pixels, and the brand-design UI for that screen. E2E Gradle config patches that forced experiment cohorts are dropped, andonboardingQuickSetupis removed from bundled privacy config.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 321de89.
