| name | visual-regression |
| description | Transitional standalone visual regression guard using before/after screenshot comparison. Two modes: SIT (compare staging vs local dev) or Local (compare git-stashed base vs current changes). No long-lived baselines — captures fresh screenshots each run and deletes after comparison. Config-driven from workspace-config.yaml. Use when: "跑 visual regression", "檢查畫面", "頁面有沒有壞", "visual test", "screenshot test", "畫面測試", "截圖比對", "有沒有跑版", "畫面壞了嗎", "UI 有沒有問題", "check if pages look right", for standalone manual investigation. Engineering / verify-AC Layer C uses scripts/run-visual-snapshot.sh instead.

Visual Regression
Transitional manual guard. Engineering 與 verify-AC 的 native Layer C evidence
authority 是 scripts/run-visual-snapshot.sh，不是此 standalone skill。
Before/after screenshot comparison guard。每次執行都抓 fresh before / after
screenshots，使用 Playwright diff，分析後刪除 temporary snapshots 與 test results；
不維護 long-lived baselines。
Contract
VR 的測試單位是 domain，不是 repo。頁面由 configured URL paths 定義；不可因「頁面不在
目前 repo」而 skip。合法 skip 僅限 config 缺漏、dependency declined、clean local tree、
smart-skip 判斷無 visual impact、fixture 未建立、已知 SSR hang、環境依賴缺失。
VR 在 quality chain 中回答：「既有頁面是否仍 visually intact？」它不取代 Local CI Mirror，
也不取代 feature behavior verification。
Reference Loading
依執行情境讀取：
| Situation | Load |
|---|
| Any VR run | visual-regression-principles.md, visual-regression-preflight-flow.md, visual-regression-config.md, workspace-config-reader.md |
| Screenshot execution | visual-regression-capture-flow.md, dependency-consent.md |
| Fixtures enabled | api-contract-guard.md, visual-regression-fixture-flow.md, epic-folder-structure.md |
| Analysis or JIRA report | visual-regression-analysis-reporting.md, vr-jira-report-template.md, workspace-language-policy.md |
| Engineering / verify-AC Layer C | Do not run this skill; use scripts/run-visual-snapshot.sh via engineer-delivery-flow.md or verify-AC references |
JIRA report、Slack summary，或任何 external write body 送出前，必須依
workspace-language-policy.md 或 external write gate 驗證語言。
Flow
- 解析 domain 與 company config，套用 root defaults inheritance。
- 檢查 visual regression 是否已設定；未設定則 stop，不 improvisation。
- 執行 smart skip、dependency consent、Playwright/toolchain readiness。
- 決定 SIT 或 Local comparison path；SIT 不可達時依 reference fallback。
- 透過
polaris-env.sh 啟動 production-equivalent proxy 與 dev environment。
- Fixtures active 時先跑 API contract guard。
- Capture before screenshots，capture after screenshots，讓 Playwright compare。
- 分析結果、套用 first-run quality gate、必要時上傳 artifacts 並寫 JIRA wiki report。
- 無論 pass/fail/error 都 cleanup，保護 git stash、server state、temporary snapshots。
Hard Rules
- Always go through production-equivalent proxy；不可直接打 app dev port 迴避 routing。
- CSR content 必須等 deterministic selector，不使用 fixed timeout 當 readiness。
- UA-based mobile SSR 必須設定 mobile user agent，不只設 viewport。
- Fixtures active 時為 strict mode：任何 diff 都不是 data variance。
- First run after fixture setup/change 必須 human screenshot review；zero-diff 不代表截圖正確。
- Playwright tests 必須 sequential，
workers: 1。
- JIRA inline screenshot report 使用 REST API v2 wiki markup，不使用 MCP markdown comment。
Completion
Standalone run 回報 domain、comparison path、pages count、diff summary、HTML report path、
cleanup status。Engineering / verify-AC triggered runs do not use this skill；它們回報
run-visual-snapshot.sh 的 Layer C evidence path 與 status。
Post-Task Reflection (required)
若本次修改 config、fixtures、JIRA report、或 framework references，final response 前執行
