About mcpware/pagecast

Records any browser page as GIF or video via the Model Context Protocol. Uses Playwright for browser automation and ffmpeg for encoding output. Developers can integrate it into MCP-compatible tools to capture web content programmatically.

Best for

Developers building MCP-based assistants that need to capture web page recordings on demand.

Use cases

  • Record browser interactions for bug reports or demos
  • Capture web pages for documentation or presentations
  • Automate visual recordings in CI or testing pipelines

Notes

16 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-03-27. Licensed MIT.

Pros

  • Leverages Playwright's reliable browser automation across multiple browsers
  • Outputs both GIF and video formats from a single tool
  • Simple MCP server setup for integration with LLM assistants

Cons

  • Small community with only 16 GitHub stars
  • Requires local installation of Playwright browsers and ffmpeg
  • Limited to recording only what Playwright can render (no browser extensions or complex media)
