¿Qué puedes hacer con Snapgrab?
Snapgrab
URL to screenshot with metadata. Claude Vision optimized.
from snapgrab import capture
result = await capture("https://example.com")
print(result.path) # /tmp/snapgrab/example_com_desktop_20260317_120000.png
print(result.metadata.title) # "Example Domain"
print(result.vision_tokens) # ~2764
Features
- Screenshot capture — PNG, JPEG, PDF with full-page support
- Page metadata — title, description, Open Graph tags, favicon, HTTP status
- Claude Vision optimized — auto-resize to 1568px, token cost estimation
- Viewport presets — desktop (1920x1080), tablet (768x1024), mobile (375x812)
- MCP server included — 3 tools for Claude Code / MCP clients
- Element capture — screenshot specific CSS selectors
- Dark mode — force light/dark color scheme
Install
pip install snapgrab
First run will prompt to install Playwright browsers:
playwright install chromium
Usage
Python API
import asyncio
from snapgrab import capture
async def main():
# Basic screenshot
result = await capture("https://example.com")
# Mobile viewport, full page
result = await capture("https://example.com", viewport="mobile", full_page=True)
# Dark mode, JPEG format
result = await capture("https://example.com", dark_mode=True, format="jpeg")
# Specific element
result = await capture("https://example.com", selector="#main-content")
# Custom viewport
result = await capture("https://example.com", viewport=(1440, 900))
asyncio.run(main())
CLI
snapgrab https://example.com # basic PNG
snapgrab https://example.com -v mobile -f # mobile, full page
snapgrab https://example.com --format jpeg -q 90 # JPEG quality 90
snapgrab https://example.com -s "#hero" --dark-mode # element + dark mode
snapgrab https://example.com -j # JSON output
snapgrab meta https://example.com # metadata only
MCP Server
pip install "snapgrab[mcp]"
snapgrab-mcp # starts stdio MCP server
