Then create diffy screenshot from "environment name" environment

Asks Diffy to capture a snapshot remotely from one of the environments configured on your Diffy project. Unlike send screenshots to diffy with name "value", no local browser screenshots are involved: the capture happens on Diffy's side against the environment URL stored in the project settings. The resulting snapshot id is stored in the scenario state so it can be used later by create diffy comparison.

The environment name accepts both short and long forms: prod or production, stage or staging, dev or development, plus custom. Any other value fails the step with a clear error listing the allowed names. The step requires DIFFY_API_KEY and DIFFY_PROJECT_ID (or the equivalent worldParameters.diffy keys in cucumber.js) to be set.
