Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Give AI agents eyes: screenshot any URL as PNG, JPEG, WebP or PDF, or read it as markdown.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Docs, sheets & office work

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Common questions

Is SnapRender safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.5.7) reached the registry 30 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

SnapRender Integrations

Official integrations for the SnapRender Screenshot API: give AI agents eyes. Capture any public web page as PNG, JPEG, WebP or PDF, or read it as clean markdown.

Remote MCP Server (recommended)

SnapRender runs a hosted MCP server. Connect from any MCP client with nothing to install:

https://app.snap-render.com/mcp
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Sign in: OAuth 2.0 (the client opens a SnapRender sign-in window; Google, GitHub or email), or an API key in the Authorization: Bearer or X-API-Key header
  • Tools (11): capture, cache check, usage, signed links, content extraction, batches and webhooks (full list below)
  • Prompts: screenshot_website, compare_devices
  • Free plan: 200 screenshots a month, no credit card
  • Directory listing: SnapRender on Glama (health-checked, tool quality graded)
Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop)

Open Customize, then Connectors, click + Add, then Add custom connector, and paste https://app.snap-render.com/mcp. Claude opens a SnapRender sign-in window; approve it and the tools are ready. Step-by-step guide: snap-render.com/claude.

Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and other clients

Setup pages for each client, with one-click install where the client supports it: snap-render.com/ai-connectors.

A client that takes headers instead of OAuth:

{

"mcpServers": { "snaprender": { "url": "https://app.snap-render.com/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer sk_live_your_key_here" } } } }

Any MCP client (curl)
# Initialize a session

curl -X POST https://app.snap-render.com/mcp \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \ -H "X-API-Key: sk_live_your_key_here" \ -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'

The server returns an Mcp-Session-Id header: include it in later requests to reuse the session.

Smithery

Install via Smithery for automatic setup with any MCP client.

Local MCP Server (npm)

If you prefer running locally via stdio transport:

{

"mcpServers": { "snaprender": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "snaprender-mcp"], "env": { "SNAPRENDER_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here" } } } }

See mcp-server/ for full documentation.

MCP Tools

The hosted server and the npm package expose the same 11 tools. Parameters are documented in each tool's schema and in the API docs.
