Overview

What is Puppeteer vision MCP Server?

This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server provides a tool for scraping webpages and converting them to markdown format using Puppeteer, Readability, and Turndown.

It is intended for developers and LLM orchestrators that need structured web content.

How to use Puppeteer vision MCP Server?

Run the server directly via npx -y puppeteer-vision-mcp-server after setting required environment variables (e.g., OPENAI_API_KEY). It can also be configured as an MCP tool in an orchestrator using the JSON snippet provided in the README. Transport can be stdio (default), SSE, or HTTP, selected via the TRANSPORT_TYPE variable.

Frequently asked questions

What AI model does it use?

It requires an OpenAI API key; the default vision model is `gpt-4.1`. You can change the model via the `VISION_MODEL` environment variable, and point to alternative providers by setting `API_BASE_URL`.

2

How do I see the browser during scraping?

Set the environment variable `DISABLE_HEADLESS=true` to run the browser in visible (non‑headless) mode.

3

What transport modes are supported?

Three modes are supported: `stdio` (default), `sse`, and `http`. Set the `TRANSPORT_TYPE` environment variable to switch between them.

4

Can I use a different AI provider?

Yes, set the `API_BASE_URL` environment variable to any OpenAI‑compatible
