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 →
buy_credits Get a payment link for credits ~137
Return a Stripe Payment Link for a credit pack, personalised for this API key (client reference + prefilled email). Nothing is charged by this tool: give the link to the user to pay in their browser; credits are added automatically after payment, so confirm with get_balance afterwards. Use when generate_screenshots fails for lack of credits or the user wants unwatermarked output. If it returns an error (e.g. an unknown pack id), get valid pack ids from get_balance.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| pack | string | yes | Pack id from get_balance (starter = 10 sets for $3, pro = 20 sets for $5). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
generate_screenshots Generate store screenshots ~465
Turn 1–5 raw app screenshots (local file paths or http(s) URLs) into framed App Store / Google Play marketing screenshots with headlines. One call = one set (all requested sizes) = 1 credit; free keys get 3 watermarked sets per month. Returns a jobId plus per-target file list; set download_to (or call get_output later) to save the PNGs/ZIP locally — outputs are kept on the server for 24h. Call list_styles/list_devices first for valid ids. If free sets and credits are used up it returns an error: call get_balance, then buy_credits.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| appName | string | – | App name, used in output file names. |
| captions | array | – | Smaller caption under each headline (≤220 chars), same order as screenshots. Missing entries blank; extras ignored. |
| device | string | – | Device frame. Omit to use each target's default device. |
| download_format | string | – | What to download when download_to is set: zip = one ZIP of all sizes, png = individual PNGs in per-target subfolders, both = both (default zip). |
| download_to | string | – | If set, download the results into this local directory right away (same as calling get_output). Existing files with the same names are overwritten. |
| headlines | array | – | Headline per slide (≤140 chars), same order as screenshots. Missing entries are left blank; entries beyond the number of screenshots are ignored. |
| screenshots | array | yes | 1–5 local image paths (absolute, ~ or relative to cwd), file:// or http(s) URLs. PNG/JPEG/WebP, ≤10 MB each. One slide per screenshot. |
| style | string | – | Style id (default glow). See list_styles. |
| targets | array | – | Output sizes (default ios-6.9, ios-6.5, android-phone). |
| theme | object | – | Optional overrides on top of the style: gradFrom/gradTo (gradient), bgColor + bgMode (solid or gradient background), headlineColor, captionColor, frameColor (hex like #4f46e5), textAlign, screenFit (… |

get_balance Credits and free-tier balance ~69
Show remaining paid credits, free generations left this month, and the available credit packs (ids and prices). Call before generate_screenshots to check you have quota, and before buy_credits to get a valid pack id. Takes no parameters; read-only live data that requires STORESHOTS_API_KEY.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_output Download generated screenshots ~200
Download a finished job's ZIP and/or individual PNGs to a local directory (default ~/StoreShots/<jobId>, or STORESHOTS_OUTPUT_DIR/<jobId>). Use after generate_screenshots when download_to was not set, or to download again in another format/folder; existing files with the same names are overwritten. Returns the saved file paths and sizes. Jobs expire after 24h; an unknown or expired job_id returns an error (generate again).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| format | string | – | zip = one ZIP of all sizes, png = individual PNGs in per-target subfolders, both = both. Default zip. |
| job_id | string | yes | The jobId returned by generate_screenshots, e.g. 20260929-a1b2c3d4e5. |
| output_dir | string | – | Local directory to save into (absolute, ~ or relative; created if missing). Default ~/StoreShots/<jobId>. |

list_devices List devices and output sizes ~107
List device frames (iphone, iphone-duo, android, ipad) and store output targets with pixel sizes (ios-6.9 1320x2868, ios-6.5 1242x2688, android-phone, ipad-13). Call this before generate_screenshots to pick valid device and targets values; use list_styles instead for colours/layouts. Takes no parameters; read-only, fetched live from the StoreShots API and requires STORESHOTS_API_KEY.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_styles List StoreShots styles ~78

Takes no parameters; read-only, fetched live from the StoreShots API and requires STORESHOTS_API_KEY.
