Urlbox MCP Server

If you already use Urlbox, the urlbox mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. An MCP integration for rendering full-page website screenshots and PDFs using the Urlbox API.

What the server does

MCP server for the Urlbox Screenshot API. Enables your client to take screenshots, generate PDFs, extract HTML/markdown, and more from websites.

Installation

npm on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: SECRET_KEY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. It is maintained by urlbox; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Worth knowing first

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
• Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
