Every site's key pages compared before and after an update run

Before I approve update run [run id], save a visual baseline of the home page and [the shop page] of each site in it, on [mobile]. When the run is done, compare each page with its baseline and tell me what changed visibly: PHP errors, script errors, broken images, content wider than the screen. Send me a full-length screenshot of any page that looks wrong.

If SAR is already in your AI app, this is enough:
Save a baseline of each site's key pages before run [run id] and compare them after it.
What happens
- The AI app opens each page in a browser and saves a baseline of how it looks.
- It follows the run until it is done or stopped, with each site's steps.
- It opens the same pages again and compares them with the baseline, reporting PHP errors, script errors, broken images and content wider than the screen.
- For a page that looks wrong, it takes a full-length screenshot. Nothing changes on any site.
Approvals involved
Nothing here changes your site: no approval needed.

What you get
Problems after an update found by you, not by the client. Updates cannot be undone through SAR, so a backup is the way back.
