# webshot-mcp

[中文文档](README_zh.md) | English

A MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for generating web page screenshots, implemented with Playwright.

## Features

- 🌐 Support for any web page screenshots
- 📱 Support for multiple device types (desktop, mobile, tablet)
- 🎨 Support for multiple image formats (PNG, JPEG, WebP)
- 📏 Support for custom dimensions and DPI scaling
- 🖼️ Support for full-page screenshots
- 🗜️ Support for image quality compression
- ⚡ Asynchronous processing for excellent performance

## Usage

### As MCP Server

#### Method 1: Run directly with uvx (Recommended)

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "webshot": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["webshot-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

#### Method 2: Use with Claude Code

Claude Code can be configured to use this MCP server in two ways:

**Option A: Using the CLI wizard**
```bash
claude mcp add
```
Then follow the prompts to add webshot-mcp.

**Option B: Direct config file editing (Recommended)**

Edit your Claude Code configuration file (`~/.claude.json`) and add:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "webshot": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["webshot-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

After editing the config file, restart Claude Code to apply the changes.

#### Method 3: Install with pip and run

```bash
# Install webshot-mcp
pip install webshot-mcp
# Install chromium browser
playwright install chromium
```

Then add to your MCP client configuration:

**For Claude Desktop (`claude_desktop_config.json`):**
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "webshot": {
      "command": "webshot-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

**For Claude Code (`~/.claude.json`):**
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "webshot": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "webshot-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### Tool Parameters

- `output` (string): Path to save the screenshot file

#### Optional Parameters

- `width` (integer): Browser window width, default 1280
- `height` (integer): Browser window height, default 768. Set to 0 for full-page screenshot
- `dpi_scale` (number): DPI scaling ratio, default 2
- `device` (string): Device type, options:
  - `desktop` (default): Desktop device
  - `mobile`: Mobile device (iPhone 13)
  - `tablet`: Tablet device (iPad Pro)
- `format` (string): Image format, options:
  - `png` (default): PNG format
  - `jpeg`: JPEG format
  - `webp`: WebP format
- `quality` (integer): Image quality (0-100), default 100. Only effective for JPEG and WebP formats
