This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Available tools 2

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

page

read_page

Render a web page and return its content as clean Markdown. The page is fully rendered first - JavaScript executed, consent banners dismissed, lazy images loaded - so this works on sites that return nothing useful to a plain HTTP fetch. Prefer this over screenshot when you need to read or reason about the text.

screenshot

screenshot

Capture a screenshot of a web page and return it as an image. Handles consent banners, ads, lazy-loaded images and late-rendering SPAs. Use this when the layout, styling or visual appearance is what matters; use read_page when you only need the text.

Screenshotline — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Screenshotline do?

It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: read_page, screenshot. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Screenshotline working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 559 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Is Screenshotline still maintained?

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.

How do I connect Screenshotline?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Screenshotline need an API key?

No. Screenshotline completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Screenshotline?

It answers our handshake in 559 ms on average, which is faster than 24% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
