Image Compare

Compare two images pixel-by-pixel. Returns a diff count, mismatch percentage, and generates a diff image highlighting the differences in red.

When to Use

  • Comparing an implementation screenshot against the original design
  • Spotting visual regressions between two versions of a page
  • Verifying that a UI matches a Figma export

How It Works

  1. Both images are loaded and resized to match dimensions (uses the smaller of the two)
  2. pixelmatch compares every pixel and flags differences above a configurable threshold
  3. Returns mismatch stats and writes a diff image showing changes in red

Usage

bash <skill-path>/scripts/image-compare.sh <image1> <image2> [diff-output.png] [threshold]

Arguments:

  • image1 — First image path (required)
  • image2 — Second image path (required)
  • diff-output.png — Path to write the diff image (optional, defaults to ./diff.png)
  • threshold — Pixel matching threshold 0-1, lower is stricter (optional, defaults to 0.1)

Examples:

# Compare a design against implementation
bash <skill-path>/scripts/image-compare.sh design.png screenshot.png

# Compare with custom threshold and output path
bash <skill-path>/scripts/image-compare.sh before.png after.png ./changes.png 0.05

Output

{
  "totalPixels": 921600,
  "differentPixels": 4523,
  "mismatchPercentage": 0.49,
  "dimensions": { "width": 1280, "height": 720 },
  "diffImage": "./diff.png",
  "threshold": 0.1
}

Present Results to User

After comparing, present a summary:

Comparison: design.png vs screenshot.png

Mismatch: 0.49% (4,523 pixels out of 921,600)
Diff image saved to: ./diff.png

The images are nearly identical. Differences are highlighted in red in the diff image.

Interpret the percentage:

  • < 0.1% — Essentially identical
  • 0.1% - 1% — Minor differences, likely anti-aliasing or sub-pixel rendering
  • 1% - 5% — Noticeable differences, worth reviewing
  • > 5% — Significant visual changes

Troubleshooting

Different sized images — The script automatically resizes both images to the smaller dimensions. For best results, use images of the same size.

Too many false positives — Increase the threshold (e.g., 0.2). Anti-aliasing differences are common between browsers.

Audit a .glb or .gltf and make it small, correct, and fast to load in a browser, with a measured before/after report. Use when a model is "too big" or "slow to load", when the user asks to "optimize this GLB", "compress this glTF", or "export for web", or when they mention Draco, meshopt, gltfpack, KTX2, Basis, texture VRAM, draw calls, or a Blender / CAD / photogrammetry / Pascal export headed for Three.js, React Three Fiber (drei useGLTF), Babylon.js, or model-viewer. Covers inspection, spec validation, geometry and texture compression, scene-graph cleanup, and the correctness checks (metres, Y-up, node names, animations, PBR fidelity, alpha modes, vertex colors) that must not regress. Not for editing or modelling geometry, authoring or laying out a scene, generating 3D from text or images, converting from FBX/OBJ/CAD, or debugging a runtime frame rate that has nothing to do with asset size.
