Hi,
Thanks for making this project.
I am trying to figure out how to find the diff when a snapshot comparison fails in headless mode.
Ideally when we run this on CI and then check Cypress Cloud to find out what failed, I can't find that image where I expect it.

No clear way to find the diff once the error is surfaced.
Image diff factor (0.011%) is bigger than maximum threshold option 0.009.

  1. How come the "See comparison" link is unavailable in Cypress Cloud replays?
    image

  2. How come the "Screenshots" icon doesn't show me the failed diff?
    I'm expecting to see the diff, like this:
    image

Instead it shows a snapshot of the current state with no clear indication of what's changed

It seems I'd have to pull the branch that's been updated with the latest from CI and locate the diff file myself.
Is that a limitation of the app, or do I have something misconfigured?
