How do I see all available screenshots for a URL?

Use the --list option to generate a chronological list of all available visual captures found in the Wayback Machine's index for that specific URL.

Does every archived page have a screenshot available?

No, screenshots are only available if the capture_screenshot=1 parameter was used during the archiving process or if a visual snapshot was automatically indexed.

Can I download a specific screenshot to my computer?

Yes, you can use the --download=PATH option to save any retrieved screenshot directly to your local directory.

Is there a way to bypass cached results?

Yes, you can use the --no-cache flag to bypass the 24-hour local cache and fetch the most recent data directly from the Wayback Machine API.

Retrieves and manages historical visual snapshots of websites using the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

The wayback-screenshot skill enables users to access the visual history of the web by fetching archived screenshots from the Wayback Machine. It provides a streamlined interface to browse historical captures, list available snapshots, and download images directly to your local environment. This is particularly useful for developers, designers, and researchers who need to verify past page appearances, recover lost UI patterns, or conduct forensic analysis on website changes over time using both documented and undocumented Wayback Machine APIs.
