+# SnapshotAgent
+
+The `SnapshotAgent` provides a powerful way to record and replay HTTP requests for testing purposes. It extends `MockAgent` to enable automatic snapshot testing, eliminating the need to manually define mock responses.
+
+## Use Cases
+
+- **Integration Testing**: Record real API interactions and replay them in tests
+- **Offline Development**: Work with APIs without network connectivity
+- **Consistent Test Data**: Ensure tests use the same responses across runs
+- **API Contract Testing**: Capture and validate API behavior over time
+
+## Constructor
+
+```javascript
+new SnapshotAgent([options])
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+- **options** `Object` (optional)
+  - **mode** `String` - The snapshot mode: `'record'`, `'playback'`, or `'update'`. Default: `'record'`
+  - **snapshotPath** `String` - Path to the snapshot file for loading/saving
+  - **maxSnapshots** `Number` - Maximum number of snapshots to keep in memory. Default: `Infinity`
+  - **autoFlush** `Boolean` - Whether to automatically save snapshots to disk. Default: `false`
+  - **flushInterval** `Number` - Interval in milliseconds for auto-flush. Default: `30000`
+  - **matchHeaders** `Array<String>` - Specific headers to include in request matching. Default: all headers
+  - **ignoreHeaders** `Array<String>` - Headers to ignore during request matching
+  - **excludeHeaders** `Array<String>` - Headers to exclude from snapshots (for security)
+  - **matchBody** `Boolean` - Whether to include request body in matching. Default: `true`
+  - **normalizeBody** `Function` - Optional function `(body) => string` to normalize the request body before matching (e.g. strip volatile fields like timestamps). Only used when `matchBody` is `true`.
+  - **matchQuery** `Boolean` - Whether to include query parameters in matching. Default: `true`
+  - **normalizeQuery** `Function` - Optional function `(query: URLSearchParams) => string` to normalize query parameters before matching (e.g. strip volatile params like cache-busters). Only used when `matchQuery` is `true`.
+  - **caseSensitive** `Boolean` - Whether header matching is case-sensitive. Default: `false`
+  - **shouldRecord** `Function` - Callback to determine if a request should be recorded
+  - **shouldPlayback** `Function` - Callback to determine if a request should be played back
+  - **excludeUrls** `Array` - URL patterns (strings or RegExp) to exclude from recording/playback
+  - All other options from `MockAgent` are supported
+
+### Modes
+
+#### Record Mode (`'record'`)
+Makes real HTTP requests and saves the responses to snapshots.
+
+```javascript
+import { SnapshotAgent, setGlobalDispatcher } from 'undici'
+
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ 
+  mode: 'record',
+  snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/api-calls.json'
+})
+setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+
+// Makes real requests and records them
+const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/users')
+const users = await response.json()
+
+// Save recorded snapshots
+await agent.saveSnapshots()
+```
+
+#### Playback Mode (`'playback'`)
+Replays recorded responses without making real HTTP requests.
+
+```javascript
+import { SnapshotAgent, setGlobalDispatcher } from 'undici'
+
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'playback',
+  snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/api-calls.json'
+})
+setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+
+// Uses recorded response instead of real request
+const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/users')
+```
+
+#### Update Mode (`'update'`)
+Uses existing snapshots when available, but records new ones for missing requests.
+
+```javascript
+import { SnapshotAgent, setGlobalDispatcher } from 'undici'
+
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'update',
+  snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/api-calls.json'
+})
+setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+
+// Uses snapshot if exists, otherwise makes real request and records it
+const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/new-endpoint')
+```
+
+## Instance Methods
+
+### `agent.saveSnapshots([filePath])`
+
+Saves all recorded snapshots to a file.
+
+#### Parameters
+
+- **filePath** `String` (optional) - Path to save snapshots. Uses constructor `snapshotPath` if not provided.
+
+#### Returns
+
+`Promise<void>`
+
+```javascript
+await agent.saveSnapshots('./custom-snapshots.json')
+```
+
+## Advanced Configuration
+
+### Body Matching
+
+By default (`matchBody: true`) the full request body string is included in the snapshot key. Set it to `false` to ignore the body entirely, or use `normalizeBody` to strip volatile fields (like timestamps) before matching:
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'playback',
+  snapshotPath: './snapshots.json',
+
+  // Match on everything except the timestamp field
+  normalizeBody: (body) => {
+    if (!body) return ''
+    const parsed = JSON.parse(String(body))
+    delete parsed.timestamp
+    return JSON.stringify(parsed)
+  }
+})
+```
+
+`normalizeBody` receives the raw body (`string | Buffer | null | undefined`) and must return a `string`. It runs at both record and playback time so the hash is consistent. Two requests match the same snapshot whenever their normalized strings are identical.
+
+### Header Filtering
+
+Control which headers are used for request matching and what gets stored in snapshots:
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'record',
+  snapshotPath: './snapshots.json',
+  
+  // Only match these specific headers
+  matchHeaders: ['content-type', 'accept'],
+  
+  // Ignore these headers during matching (but still store them)
+  ignoreHeaders: ['user-agent', 'date'],
+  
+  // Exclude sensitive headers from snapshots entirely
+  excludeHeaders: ['authorization', 'x-api-key', 'cookie']
+})
+```
+
+### Custom Request/Response Filtering
+
+Use callback functions to determine what gets recorded or played back:
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'record',
+  snapshotPath: './snapshots.json',
+  
+  // Only record GET requests to specific endpoints
+  shouldRecord: (requestOpts) => {
+    const url = new URL(requestOpts.path, requestOpts.origin)
+    return requestOpts.method === 'GET' && url.pathname.startsWith('/api/v1/')
+  },
+  
+  // Skip authentication endpoints during playback
+  shouldPlayback: (requestOpts) => {
+    const url = new URL(requestOpts.path, requestOpts.origin)
+    return !url.pathname.includes('/auth/')
+  }
+})
+```
+
+### URL Pattern Exclusion
+
+Exclude specific URLs from recording/playback using patterns:
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'record',
+  snapshotPath: './snapshots.json',
+  
+  excludeUrls: [
+    'https://analytics.example.com',  // String match
+    /\/api\/v\d+\/health/,           // Regex pattern
+    'telemetry'                      // Substring match
+  ]
+})
+```
+
+### Memory Management
+
+Configure automatic memory and disk management:
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'record',
+  snapshotPath: './snapshots.json',
+  
+  // Keep only 1000 snapshots in memory
+  maxSnapshots: 1000,
+  
+  // Automatically save to disk every 30 seconds
+  autoFlush: true,
+  flushInterval: 30000
+})
+```
+
+### Sequential Response Handling
+
+Handle multiple responses for the same request (similar to nock):
+
+```javascript
+// In record mode, multiple identical requests get recorded as separate responses
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'record', snapshotPath: './sequential.json' })
+
+// First call returns response A
+await fetch('https://api.example.com/random')
+
+// Second call returns response B  
+await fetch('https://api.example.com/random')
+
+await agent.saveSnapshots()
+
+// In playback mode, calls return responses in sequence
+const playbackAgent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'playback', snapshotPath: './sequential.json' })
+
+// Returns response A
+const first = await fetch('https://api.example.com/random')
+
+// Returns response B
+const second = await fetch('https://api.example.com/random')
+
+// Third call repeats the last response (B)
+const third = await fetch('https://api.example.com/random')
+```
+
+## Managing Snapshots
+
+### Replacing Existing Snapshots
+
+```javascript
+// Load existing snapshots
+await agent.loadSnapshots('./old-snapshots.json')
+
+// Get snapshot data
+const recorder = agent.getRecorder()
+const snapshots = recorder.getSnapshots()
+
+// Modify or filter snapshots
+const filteredSnapshots = snapshots.filter(s => 
+  !s.request.url.includes('deprecated')
+)
+
+// Replace all snapshots
+agent.replaceSnapshots(filteredSnapshots.map((snapshot, index) => ({
+  hash: `new-hash-${index}`,
+  snapshot
+})))
+
+// Save updated snapshots
+await agent.saveSnapshots('./updated-snapshots.json')
+```
+
+### `agent.loadSnapshots([filePath])`
+
+Loads snapshots from a file.
+
+#### Parameters
+
+- **filePath** `String` (optional) - Path to load snapshots from. Uses constructor `snapshotPath` if not provided.
+
+#### Returns
+
+`Promise<void>`
+
+```javascript
+await agent.loadSnapshots('./existing-snapshots.json')
+```
+
+### `agent.getRecorder()`
+
+Gets the underlying `SnapshotRecorder` instance.
+
+#### Returns
+
+`SnapshotRecorder`
+
+```javascript
+const recorder = agent.getRecorder()
+console.log(`Recorded ${recorder.size()} interactions`)
+```
+
+### `agent.getMode()`
+
+Gets the current snapshot mode.
+
+#### Returns
+
+`String` - The current mode (`'record'`, `'playback'`, or `'update'`)
+
+### `agent.clearSnapshots()`
+
+Clears all recorded snapshots from memory.
+
+```javascript
+agent.clearSnapshots()
+```
+
+## Working with Different Request Types
+
+### GET Requests
+
+```javascript
+// Record mode
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'record', snapshotPath: './get-snapshots.json' })
+setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+
+const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1')
+const post = await response.json()
+
+await agent.saveSnapshots()
+```
+
+### POST Requests with Body
+
+```javascript
+// Record mode
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'record', snapshotPath: './post-snapshots.json' })
+setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+
+const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts', {
+  method: 'POST',
+  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
+  body: JSON.stringify({ title: 'Test Post', body: 'Content' })
+})
+
+await agent.saveSnapshots()
+```
+
+### Using with `undici.request`
+
+SnapshotAgent works with all undici APIs, not just fetch:
+
+```javascript
+import { SnapshotAgent, request, setGlobalDispatcher } from 'undici'
+
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'record', snapshotPath: './request-snapshots.json' })
+setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+
+const { statusCode, headers, body } = await request('https://api.example.com/data')
+const data = await body.json()
+
+await agent.saveSnapshots()
+```
+
+## Test Integration
+
+### Basic Test Setup
+
+```javascript
+import { test } from 'node:test'
+import { SnapshotAgent, setGlobalDispatcher, getGlobalDispatcher } from 'undici'
+
+test('API integration test', async (t) => {
+  const originalDispatcher = getGlobalDispatcher()
+  
+  const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+    mode: 'playback',
+    snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/api-test.json'
+  })
+  setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+  
+  t.after(() => setGlobalDispatcher(originalDispatcher))
+  
+  // This will use recorded data
+  const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/users')
+  const users = await response.json()
+  
+  assert(Array.isArray(users))
+  assert(users.length > 0)
+})
+```
+
+### Environment-Based Mode Selection
+
+```javascript
+const mode = process.env.SNAPSHOT_MODE || 'playback'
+
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode,
+  snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/integration.json'
+})
+
+// Run with: SNAPSHOT_MODE=record npm test (to record)
+// Run with: npm test (to playback)
+```
+
+### Test Helper Function
+
+```javascript
+function createSnapshotAgent(testName, mode = 'playback') {
+  return new SnapshotAgent({
+    mode,
+    snapshotPath: `./test/snapshots/${testName}.json`
+  })
+}
+
+test('user API test', async (t) => {
+  const agent = createSnapshotAgent('user-api')
+  setGlobalDispatcher(agent)
+  
+  // Test implementation...
+})
+```
+
+## Snapshot File Format
+
+Snapshots are stored as JSON with the following structure:
+
+```json
+[
+  {
+    "hash": "dGVzdC1oYXNo...",
+    "snapshot": {
+      "request": {
+        "method": "GET",
+        "url": "https://api.example.com/users",
+        "headers": {
+          "authorization": "Bearer token"
+        },
+        "body": undefined
+      },
+      "response": {
+        "statusCode": 200,
+        "headers": {
+          "content-type": "application/json"
+        },
+        "body": "eyJkYXRhIjoidGVzdCJ9", // base64 encoded
+        "trailers": {}
+      },
+      "timestamp": "2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"
+    }
+  }
+]
+```
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Sensitive Data in Snapshots
+
+By default, SnapshotAgent records all headers and request/response data. For production use, always exclude sensitive information:
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'record',
+  snapshotPath: './snapshots.json',
+  
+  // Exclude sensitive headers from snapshots
+  excludeHeaders: [
+    'authorization',
+    'x-api-key', 
+    'cookie',
+    'set-cookie',
+    'x-auth-token',
+    'x-csrf-token'
+  ],
+  
+  // Filter out requests with sensitive data
+  shouldRecord: (requestOpts) => {
+    const url = new URL(requestOpts.path, requestOpts.origin)
+    
+    // Don't record authentication endpoints
+    if (url.pathname.includes('/auth/') || url.pathname.includes('/login')) {
+      return false
+    }
+    
+    // Don't record if request contains sensitive body data
+    if (requestOpts.body && typeof requestOpts.body === 'string') {
+      const body = requestOpts.body.toLowerCase()
+      if (body.includes('password') || body.includes('secret')) {
+        return false
+      }
+    }
+    
+    return true
+  }
+})
+```
+
+### Snapshot File Security
+
+**Important**: Snapshot files may contain sensitive data. Handle them securely:
+
+- ✅ Add snapshot files to `.gitignore` if they contain real API data
+- ✅ Use environment-specific snapshots (dev/staging/prod)
+- ✅ Regularly review snapshot contents for sensitive information
+- ✅ Use the `excludeHeaders` option for production snapshots
+- ❌ Never commit snapshots with real authentication tokens
+- ❌ Don't share snapshot files containing personal data
+
+```gitignore
+# Exclude snapshots with real data
+/test/snapshots/production-*.json
+/test/snapshots/*-real-data.json
+
+# Include sanitized test snapshots
+!/test/snapshots/mock-*.json
+```
+
+## Error Handling
+
+### Missing Snapshots in Playback Mode
+
+```javascript
+try {
+  const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/nonexistent')
+} catch (error) {
+  if (error.message.includes('No snapshot found')) {
+    // Handle missing snapshot
+    console.log('Snapshot not found for this request')
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Handling Network Errors in Record Mode
+
+```javascript
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'record', snapshotPath: './snapshots.json' })
+
+try {
+  const response = await fetch('https://nonexistent-api.example.com/data')
+} catch (error) {
+  // Network errors are not recorded as snapshots
+  console.log('Network error:', error.message)
+}
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Organize Snapshots by Test Suite
+
+```javascript
+// Use descriptive snapshot file names
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+  mode: 'playback',
+  snapshotPath: `./test/snapshots/${testSuiteName}-${testName}.json`
+})
+```
+
+### 2. Version Control Snapshots
+
+Add snapshot files to version control to ensure consistent test behavior across environments:
+
+```gitignore
+# Include snapshots in version control
+!/test/snapshots/*.json
+```
+
+### 3. Clean Up Test Data
+
+```javascript
+test('API test', async (t) => {
+  const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+    mode: 'playback',
+    snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/temp-test.json'
+  })
+  
+  // Clean up after test
+  t.after(() => {
+    agent.clearSnapshots()
+  })
+})
+```
+
+### 4. Snapshot Validation
+
+```javascript
+test('validate snapshot contents', async (t) => {
+  const agent = new SnapshotAgent({
+    mode: 'playback',
+    snapshotPath: './test/snapshots/validation.json'
+  })
+  
+  const recorder = agent.getRecorder()
+  const snapshots = recorder.getSnapshots()
+  
+  // Validate snapshot structure
+  assert(snapshots.length > 0, 'Should have recorded snapshots')
+  assert(snapshots[0].request.url.startsWith('https://'), 'Should use HTTPS')
+})
+```
+
+## Comparison with Other Tools
+
+### vs Manual MockAgent Setup
+
+**Manual MockAgent:**
+```javascript
+const mockAgent = new MockAgent()
+const mockPool = mockAgent.get('https://api.example.com')
+
+mockPool.intercept({
+  path: '/users',
+  method: 'GET'
+}).reply(200, [
+  { id: 1, name: 'User 1' },
+  { id: 2, name: 'User 2' }
+])
+```
+
+**SnapshotAgent:**
+```javascript
+// Record once
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'record', snapshotPath: './snapshots.json' })
+// Real API call gets recorded automatically
+
+// Use in tests
+const agent = new SnapshotAgent({ mode: 'playback', snapshotPath: './snapshots.json' })
+// Automatically replays recorded response
+```
+
+### vs nock
+
+SnapshotAgent provides similar functionality to nock but is specifically designed for undici:
+
+- ✅ Works with all undici APIs (`request`, `stream`, `pipeline`, etc.)
+- ✅ Supports undici-specific features (RetryAgent, connection pooling)
+- ✅ Better TypeScript integration
+- ✅ More efficient for high-performance scenarios
