What the publisher says
From the Pagebolt repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
PageBolt MCP Server
Take screenshots, generate PDFs, create OG images, inspect pages, and record demo videos directly from your AI coding assistant.
Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and any MCP-compatible client.
What It Does
PageBolt MCP Server connects your AI assistant to PageBolt's web capture API, giving it the ability to:
- Take screenshots of any URL, HTML, or Markdown (30+ parameters)
- Generate PDFs from URLs or HTML (invoices, reports, docs)
- Create OG images for social cards using templates or custom HTML
- Run browser sequences — multi-step automation (navigate, click, fill, screenshot)
- Record demo videos — browser automation as MP4/WebM/GIF with cursor effects, click animations, and auto-zoom
- Inspect pages — get a structured map of interactive elements with CSS selectors (use before sequences)
- Observe pages for agents — compact, token-budgeted observation with an optional flatdomtree mode for browser-use / page-agent interop
- Import agent traces — turn a browser-use / page-agent action trace into a re-runnable PageBolt sequence
- List device presets — 25+ devices (iPhone, iPad, MacBook, Galaxy, etc.)
- Check usage & track async jobs — monitor your API quota and long async video renders in real time
All results are returned inline — screenshots appear directly in your chat.
