Claude Desktop viewing the screenshots?
I'm trying out this MCP server, and I can get it to navigate and take screenshots, but the response shows the screenshots as being saved in my user's "Downloads" folder, and Claude Desktop seems oblivious to what's actually in the screenshot.
My guess is that it's supposed to maybe access the screenshot using the "screenshots://name" resource, but it won't try that at all.
In the end, I think Claude Desktop is just hallucinating the fact that it's "looked" at a screenshot.
Here's an example output.
{
`name`: `current-bug-state`,
`savePng`: true
}
Screenshot saved to: ..\..\..\..\Downloads\current-bug-state-2025-03-17T20-22-26-133Z.png
Screenshot also stored in memory with name: 'current-bug-state'
Yes, it’s really not reading from the binary image so I think the context for Claude is not there clearly. It’s trying to hallucinate at the moment.
I will see if there is a way to fix this issue
Thanks for reporting
This would be a very helpful feature for auto-validating changes visually. MCP allows it now. https://forum.cursor.com/t/images-in-mcp-how-to-do-it/83021
