Sikuli is not aware of any application, since Sikuli only sees what is on the screen (the pixels):
WYSIWYS - What You See Is What You Script

Sikuli does not know anything about GUI or DOM elements like e.g. Selenium.

But there is one thing to be aware: different browsers might have differences in rendering some aspect of a page which in turn does not allow to find a specific image, that was shot using another browser.

As a worst case, you need a different set of images for at least the different browser engines (IE, FF(Gecko), Chrome/Safari, ...(WebKit), ...)

You simply have to check this for your situation.

have a look around here and in the net.

I recommend to read across the docs, to get an impression about the features first (doc.sikuli.org)
