CurlShot
Hosted MCP server for CurlShot, a screenshot API. Lets AI agents capture any public web page as PNG, JPEG, WebP, PDF or a scrolling video (MP4, WebM, GIF), with full-page capture, device presets, dark mode and cookie-banner/ad blocking. Nothing to install: streamable HTTP endpoint with a Bearer API key; free plan with 100 screenshots a month.

Same handshake clock as this listing (overlay / warm / seed; live tools/list only if that is missing). Indigo is live_ok, amber is auth_required, gray is unreachable. Not a SAFE badge. Stdio listings have no badge.
