pagewatch-mcp

An MCP server that gives an agent a real browser. Three tools:

• read_page turns any url into clean markdown

• screenshot returns a png of the rendered page

• pdf turns a url or raw html into a pdf

Plus register and balance for managing your key.

It runs javascript, so it works on pages that a plain http fetch returns empty. It respects robots.txt and refuses sites that block automation instead of trying to defeat them.

No signup

Your first call mints a free trial key and returns real content. There is no form for your agent to get stuck on. When the trial runs out, one email confirmation by a human unlocks 200 more free credits, still free.

Billing is metered, but there is no payment processor connected right now, so nothing is ever charged.

Install

Add this to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pagewatch": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["pagewatch-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

That is it. uv fetches the package on first run, and your first tool call returns real content.

Or install it yourself with pip:

pip install pagewatch-mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pagewatch": { "command": "pagewatch-mcp" }
  }
}

Already hosted

If you would rather not run anything, the same tools are live at https://pagelens.dev/mcp as a remote MCP server.

Configuration

Everything is optional.

What this package does and does not do

It is deliberately thin. Every tool is one https call to a documented /v1 route on the pagewatch API. There is no browser, no scraping logic and no credential store in this package. You can read the whole thing in a couple of minutes and know exactly what it sends and where.

Docker

docker build -t pagewatch-mcp .
docker run --rm -i pagewatch-mcp
