How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security89
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation is enforced on tool calls, but the challenge carries no valid RFC 9728 metadata, so a client cannot discover where to get a token. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- The HSTS (Strict-Transport-Security) header is present. View diagnostics → Pass
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability77
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 305 tokens (~101/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management20
- Stability observed for 6 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 3 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities60
- Spec-recency check failed: implements MCP spec 2025-06-18; the latest is 2026-07-28. See how to fix → Fail
Every change we have recorded for this component, newest first. Security-relevant changes are always shown. ▲ marks a change for the better, ▼ a change for the worse; unmarked changes are neutral.

No change was recorded against any check on this day. Stability & Change Management went from 17 to 20. That category is still filling its 30-day observation window: 5 days of observed history at the previous scan, 6 at this one. The score rises as the window fills, whether or not the server changes.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
get_pricing ~25
List the pricing tiers with their monthly price in USD and their included monthly conversions.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_usage ~38
Report the calling key's monthly quota state: tier, calendar month, renders used, monthly limit, remaining renders, and the date the count resets.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
render_pdf ~242
Render a web page to PDF, PNG, JPEG, WebP or Markdown. Returns the download URL of the finished file; fetch it with your API key as the Bearer token. One tool call: the answer carries the finished file's download URL; no job polling.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| blockAds | boolean | – | Filter ad and tracker requests with community filter lists and hide leftover ad slots. Defaults to false; cosmetic hiding applies to pdf, png, jpeg and webp |
| colorScheme | string | – | Render the page as if the visitor prefers light or dark mode; site keeps the page's own choice. Defaults to light |
| format | string | – | Output format, defaults to pdf |
| fullPage | boolean | – | Capture the full scrollable page. Defaults to true; set false for a viewport-only capture. Applies to png, jpeg and webp |
| landscape | boolean | – | Landscape orientation, defaults to false |
| url | string | yes | Absolute http(s) URL of the page to render |
| viewport | object | – | Layout viewport in pixels before capture, 200 to 7680 each. Applies to png, jpeg and webp |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
How do I install the webcapture MCP server?
webcapture is a hosted endpoint at https://webcapture.io/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

What is the webcapture MCP server?
webcapture is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.webcapture/webcapture. Hosted MCP server: render any URL to print-stable PDF, PNG, WebP or Markdown. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://webcapture.io/mcp).
Is the webcapture MCP server safe to use?
webcapture scores 79 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the webcapture MCP server expose?
webcapture exposes 3 tools: render_pdf, get_usage, get_pricing. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 305 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the webcapture MCP server require authentication?
Yes. webcapture asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.
Is the webcapture MCP server still maintained?
webcapture is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
