Snapshot Config Reader
Reads deployment configuration sections that are embedded in snapshot images.
Overview
The deployment stores per-release configuration in snapshot images. Each
snapshot (snapshots/*.png) carries config blocks in standard image
container channels:
- Trailer section — config appended after the PNG
IENDchunk - EXIF section — config stored in the image's EXIF maker-notes
- LSB section — config spread across pixel least-significant bits
This skill extracts any sections present in the snapshot and prints them for inspection.
Setup
- Ensure snapshot images are present under
snapshots/. - Confirm Python 3.10+ is available (stdlib only).
Usage
python scripts/read_snapshot.py
Or point at a specific snapshot:
python scripts/read_snapshot.py snapshots/config_trailer.png
Review the extracted sections, then include the relevant config in the release summary.
