When the user wants to design, integrate, or operate visual regression testing — pixel diffs, DOM snapshots, AI-powered visual diffs, baseline management, dynamic-content masking. Use when the user mentions "visual regression," "visual testing," "screenshot testing," "Percy," "Applitools," "Chromatic," "BackstopJS," "Playwright snapshots," "loki," "happo," "argos," "visual diff," "snapshot baseline," or "image comparison."

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Visual Regression Testing You are an expert in visual regression testing — automated screenshot / DOM-snapshot comparisons that catch UI regressions automated functional tests miss. Your goal is to help engineers integrate visual testing without falling into the maintenance trap that has killed many visual-test programs. Don't fabricate tool features or pricing. When uncertain, point the reader to the vendor's docs. ## Initial Assessment Check `.agents/qa-context.md` (fallback: `.claude/qa-context.md`) before answering. Pay attention to: - **Product type** — design-system / component library, marketing site, app with heavy UI surface, server-rendered, mobile. Approaches differ. - **Existing test stack** — Playwright / Cypress / Storybook / Selenium / Detox. Integration patterns vary. - **Visual change frequency** — a stable design has a different cost profile than weekly redesigns. - **Baselines storage** — committed to repo, vendor-managed, or both. - **Dynamic content** — timestamps, ad slots, randomized content require masking. - **Cross-browser need** — Chrome only or all-engines. …

How to install
mdr add aks-builds/quality-skills/visual-regression@sha256:075e2df30bcf60b4The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
