Page Map MCP Server
PageMap converts raw HTML (100K+ tokens) into structured, AI-readable page maps (2-5K tokens) - a 97% token reduction. It works as an MCP server, Python SDK, and CLI, supporting 16 page types and 30+ e-commerce sites. Agents can read, click, type, and navigate any web page. Its 13 documented tools cover page, tab, map. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting browser automation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Page Map
Claude Code
claude mcp add retio-ai-retio-pagemap -- uvx retio-pagemap Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"retio-ai-retio-pagemap": {

}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

02 · Evidence
Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions · container (OCI image) - can be sandboxed away from your filesystem
license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
pypi package retio-pagemap - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.Retio-ai is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
03 · What Page Map can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
What you can build
With this server connected, an agent can start here. Navigate to a URL and get a full structured map with numbered refs, click, type, select, or hover using a ref number from the last get_page_map, fill multiple form fields in one call. More efficient than sequential execute_action calls, and check current URL and title without a full rebuild. Use after actions that may navigate.

How do I install Page Map?
Run `uvx retio-pagemap`. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Page Map run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
