Install Snapmcp in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y snapmcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

What the publisher says

From the Snapmcp repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

The visual documentation MCP server. Terminal · Code · Browser · Markdown · Diff · HTML · PDF · GIF For documentation workflows — when structured snapshots aren't enough.

Real terminal colors, Shiki-highlighted code, visual diffs, PDFs and GIFs — one MCP server, 13 tools. Renders with your system Chrome, or auto-installs Chromium at first setup. SSRF protection on by default. Built for agents that write documentation, not just drive browsers.

Quick Start

Three steps, under two minutes:

1. Install

npm install -g snapmcp
# or run without installing: npx -y snapmcp

2. Add to Claude Code (~/.claude/claude.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapmcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "snapmcp"],
      "env": {
        "SNAPMCP_DIR": "./captures",
        "SNAPMCP_THEME": "nord"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Capture

Ask your agent in natural language:

"Capture a terminal screenshot of git log --oneline -5 and a syntax-highlighted PNG of src/index.ts."

The agent calls captureterminal and capturefile — images land in ./captures/ with your real terminal theme and the chosen syntax theme applied.

Other clients: OpenCode, VS Code / Cline, Docker

OpenCode (opencode.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapmcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "snapmcp"],
      "env": {
        "SNAPMCP_DIR": "./captures",
        "SNAPMCP_FORMAT": "jpeg",
        "SNAPMCP_QUALITY": "95"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code / Cline / Roo-Cline (settings.json → cline.mcpServers):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "snapmcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "snapmcp"],
      "env": {
        "SNAPMCP_DIR": "./captures",
        "SNAPMCP_FORMAT": "jpeg"
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker:

docker run -i --rm \
  -e SNAPMCP_DIR=/captures \
  -e SNAPMCP_THEME=nord \
  -v /path/to/output:/captures \
  ghcr.io/reeinharddd/snapmcp

What it looks like

<!-- Real captures generated by snapmcp the same way your agent will produce them (nord theme, window chrome, soft shadow). -->

Why snapmcp vs Playwright MCP

Different tools for different jobs. Playwright MCP drives a browser through token-efficient accessibility snapshots; snapmcp renders pixel-faithful images for humans to read. If your agent needs to click, use Playwright. If it needs to show, use snapmcp.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
