A local stdio MCP server for retrieving existing website favicons. The extract_favicon tool accepts a domain or URL and an optional size, then calls the free FaviconDL API to return icon URLs, source information and metadata. Useful for bookmark cards, dashboards and Agent workflows. No API key is required. This is a local source installation, not a hosted MCP endpoint or an AI image generator. Website: https://favicondl.com/ — API docs: https://favicondl.com/documentation.html. Setup instructions: https://github.com/sweesama/favicondl.com/blob/main/mcp/README.md.

What this does
