Description

### What is this about?
There's an intermittent failure on the `Upload Artifacts` step which logs this error: `Error: Failed to CreateArtifact: Failed to make request after 5 attempts: Request timeout: /twirp/github.actions.results.api.v1.ArtifactService/CreateArtifact`

It's unclear if the `Run e2e tests` previous step run successfully or not, because it's not clickable in the link. So it could also be that there's a problem in the previous step, causing then an error to the next one (unsure, but something to look).

Research direction

Start with the two linked GitHub Actions job logs and inspect the `Run e2e tests` and `Upload Artifacts` steps, including whether the earlier step completed successfully. Determine the cause of the intermittent CreateArtifact timeout and verify that artifact uploads complete reliably without obscuring the preceding step's status.
