Overview
Pass a target URL to fetch the live web page and parse its image tags. The response separates images hosted on the root domain from third-party CDNs, listing each source URL and distinct external host. URL query strings are stripped by default but can be preserved, while paid plans can raise the link limit above 25.

The tool
Once your client is connected to the VerveKit server, this appears in its tool list as WebsiteImageScraperSkill. It is read-only and open-world — it fetches and never mutates anything on your side — so most clients call it without asking you to confirm.
{
"name": "WebsiteImageScraperSkill",
"arguments": {
"url": "https://www.wikipedia.org"
}
}You do not name the tool yourself; the model picks it. Asking about https://www.wikipedia.org in the terms this skill covers is enough for it to reach for WebsiteImageScraperSkill on its own — naming it explicitly also works, and is the way to force the call.
Connecting
One server URL covers every skill in the catalog, including this one. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser once, and there is no key to paste into a config file.
{
"mcpServers": {
"vervekit": {
"url": "https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcp"
}
}
}https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcpPer-client setup — Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT — is on the MCP setup page.
Arguments
These are the properties on the tool's inputSchema, so a well-behaved client validates them before the call is made. Premium arguments are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
urlRequired | string | The URL of the website you want to scrape images from url |
maxlinksOptionalPremium | integer | The limit of image URLs returned from your query default 25 · range 1–100 |
includequeryOptional | boolean | Keep query strings on the scraped image URLs instead of trimming them |
What the model gets back
The result carries a structuredContent object matching the tool's declared outputSchema, so a client reads fields without parsing prose. status is "ok" and error is null on success; a null field means the value was not available for that input, not that the call failed.

Response fields
Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.
| Field | Type | Example | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
url | string | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_System | URL of the website that was scraped |
imageCount | number | 25 | Total number of images found on the website |
externalImageCount | number | 0 | Number of images hosted on a different domain (CDNs, third parties) |
internalImageCount | number | 25 | Number of images hosted on the same domain as the page |
images | array[25] | Array of image objects with URLs and metadata | |
images.0.src | string | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_System/static/images/icons/wikipedia.png | Image URL source from the website |
images.0.external | boolean | false | Whether the image is hosted externally |
uniqueDomains | array | [] | Distinct external hosts serving images on the page |
maxLinksReached | boolean | true | Whether the maximum link limit was reached |
Failure modes
Errors come back as tool errors carrying a sentence the model can act on, not a bare status code. Error handling covers the full list.
| Status | What it means |
|---|---|
400 / 422 | The arguments did not validate. The message names the offending one. |
401 | The OAuth session is invalid or expired — reconnect the server. |
403 | Blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Never a bad identity. |
404 | This skill is not part of VerveKit. Check the catalog. |
429 | Out of credits, or a brief rate limit. The message tells them apart. |
A call costs 10 credits each time the tool actually runs; a model that reasons about the tool without calling it costs nothing.
Use cases
- Content Management Migration
- When migrating blog posts to a new CMS, developers audit external image links to download and re-host assets locally.
- CDN Asset Audit
- Security teams scan internal pages to detect unapproved third-party host domains serving images to corporate users.
- Product Catalog Ingestion
- E-commerce aggregators pull image URLs from supplier product pages to populate marketplace listings without manual data entry.
- Copyright Compliance Checks
- To prevent asset misuse, publishers scan partner sites to confirm images load directly from approved content delivery networks.
