🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Correct the save-only result description.

When save=true and includeImage is false, McpHttpServer.ts returns only url and screenshotPath. It does not return screenshot dimensions. Change “when includeImage or save is set” to describe the image-inclusive result only.

Note

Written by claude-opus-5-5 on behalf of Byntham

Fixed in 46705ebb42. The description now names screenshot dimensions only with includeImage. Its later sentence already says save alone returns just the url and screenshotPath.

@Byntham Thanks for the fix. The updated description limits screenshot dimensions to includeImage and keeps the save-only result as url and screenshotPath.
