# mcp-screenshot

> Use this tool when you need to provide visual context to a large language model (LLM) without exhausting its context limits. The mcp-screenshot tool takes screenshots of your desktop, allowing for one-off captures, cropped regions around the mouse cursor, or timed streaming sessions, and returns image bytes as needed. It is ideal for use cases where visual information is necessary for the LLM to understand a task or provide accurate responses.

## Description

A small Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives an LLM eyes on your desktop without burning context. It can take one-off screenshots, crop a region around the mouse cursor, and run timed streaming sessions that save frames to disk and only return image bytes when explicitly asked.
