capture_full_page
Take a full-page (entire scrollable height) screenshot of a web page with Site-Shot and return it as an image. Convenience wrapper around capture_screenshot with full-page capture enabled.
LABSCO SUMMARY
One consistent capture pipeline instead of a browser session per look.
If your agent already drives a browser, use that for pages behind a login or a multi-step flow. For public URLs this is the better engineering: every capture runs the same pipeline, can be taken from a named country with matching locale and time zone, and costs a fraction of a cent rather than a browser session plus vision tokens.
What it is
An MCP server for the Site-Shot screenshot API. It renders the page in real Chromium and returns the image to the client, with ad and cookie-banner removal on by default — which produces both a cleaner picture and fewer vision tokens when a model looks at it. Country proxies let you see the page as a visitor elsewhere would.
What you get
- capture_screenshot — a page as PNG or JPEG at a viewport or device size you choose, with full_page, block_ads, block_cookie_banners, wait_ms and max_height as options, and country, language, time_zone and geolocation for locale-accurate rendering
- capture_full_page — the same capture with the whole scrollable height enabled, as a convenience wrapper
Requirements
A Site-Shot API key in SITESHOT_API_KEY. Clients run npx -y site-shot-mcp over stdio. Country must be a two-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code — the server rejects a full country name before spending a render, and strict_country (on by default) errors when the country has no proxy instead of quietly falling back to the US. Pass width, height and wait_ms explicitly whenever the size matters: omitted values are decided by the API and can change.
Setup effort
One command plus a key — npx -y site-shot-mcp, then supply credentials
USE CASES
01
Showing what a page looks like right now
Capture it in real Chromium with ads and cookie banners stripped out.
02
Reviewing a whole long page
Take the entire scrollable height in one image, capped where you set it.
03
Checking a site from another country
Render through that country's proxy with the matching language, time zone and geolocation.
04
Capturing a page that renders late
Set an explicit wait before the shot so the SPA or animation has settled.
2 tools
Counted once with only startup setup. Other versions, modes or optional credentials may expose a different list.
capture_screenshot
Take a screenshot of a web page with Site-Shot and return it as an image. Renders in a real Chromium browser. Supports viewport/device sizing, full-page capture, country proxies, and automatic ad & cookie-banner removal (cleaner image, fewer vision tokens).
BEFORE YOU INSTALL
What to know first
Tools you get
2 tools when we connected. capture_full_page is capture_screenshot with full_page on. block_ads, block_cookie_banners and strict_country are on by default; versions up to 1.1.0 showed wrong size defaults, so pass explicit width and height.
Requires
- npx on PATH
- Node.js ≥ 18
- SITESHOT_API_KEY in your environment
Where it runs
All 4 documented clients run the server on your machine.
