reviewed by: deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash

Wraith is a Ruby CLI tool for visual regression testing. It captures screenshots of web pages at multiple viewport widths using headless browsers (PhantomJS, CasperJS, or Chrome via Selenium), compares them with ImageMagick to generate pixel-level diffs, and produces an HTML gallery of results. The tool supports two primary workflows: comparing two different domains (capture mode) and tracking changes over time on a single domain (history mode). It can also spider a site to automatically discover paths. The architecture is a monolithic Ruby gem with a Thor-based CLI, where each step (screenshot capture, cropping, comparison, thumbnail generation, gallery creation) is handled by separate classes. The codebase is functional but tightly coupled to its specific workflow and external dependencies like ImageMagick and PhantomJS. The repository is explicitly deprecated and no longer maintained, with outdated dependencies (Ruby 2.4.1, PhantomJS) and no recent activity.
