What is the Screenshot MCP Server?

screenshot-mcp binary for linux x64

What it actually does

Capture full-page and viewport screenshots of any URL via Chrome DevTools Protocol — single static binary, no runtime required.

Configuration

No manual setup required. On first use, screenshot-mcp automatically downloads a pinned Chromium build to your OS cache directory (~/.cache/screenshot-mcp/ on Linux, ~/Library/Caches/screenshot-mcp/ on macOS) if no Chrome is detected. If you already have Chrome installed, it is used directly — no download occurs. You can also set CHROME_PATH to point to any Chromium-compatible binary.
