Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

capture-web-screenshot scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 92 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Capture web screenshots & PDFs

Turn any public URL into an image or PDF hosted on a permanent CDN URL. Use the microlink_screenshot and microlink_pdf MCP tools.

Pick the tool

Goal Tool Result field
Image of a page (PNG/JPEG) microlink_screenshot microlink.data.screenshot.url
Printable/paginated document microlink_pdf microlink.data.pdf.url
Image plus metadata/palette in one call microlink_extract with screenshot: true microlink.data.screenshot.url

The response is structuredContent. Read the asset URL from microlink.data.<feature>.url, and check microlink.status === "success" first.

Screenshot recipes

Give each request a url plus a screenshot value. Pass screenshot: true for defaults, or an object to configure it. screenshot: {} behaves like true.

  • Full page (entire scroll height): { "url": "...", "screenshot": { "fullPage": true } }
  • Single element (crop to a selector): { "screenshot": { "element": "#hero" } }
  • JPEG for smaller files: { "screenshot": { "type": "jpeg" } } (default is png)
  • Transparent background: { "screenshot": { "omitBackground": true } }
  • Marketing / OG image — wrap the page in browser chrome on a gradient: { "screenshot": { "overlay": { "browser": "dark", "background": "linear-gradient(45deg, #757abf, #8583be)" } } }
  • Code snippet page — syntax theme: { "screenshot": { "codeScheme": "dracula" } }

Control the browser before capturing

These parameters work on both screenshot and PDF:

  • device: emulate a device, e.g. "iPhone 12", "Pixel 5", "Macbook Pro 16".
  • viewport: custom size, e.g. { "width": 1200, "height": 630 } (ideal OG ratio).
  • colorScheme: "dark" or "light" to trigger the page's theme.
  • click: CSS selector(s) to click first (dismiss a cookie banner, open a tab).
  • scroll: CSS selector to scroll into view before shooting.
  • styles / scripts: inject CSS/JS to hide clutter (e.g. hide a sticky nav).
  • waitForSelector: wait until an element exists (good for lazy content).
  • waitForTimeout: wait N ms extra for animations to settle.
  • adblock: true: strip ads before capture.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
