## Details

FaviconDL helps developers reuse existing website favicons in bookmarks, dashboards and link previews. Use the website to extract and download an icon, or call the free, keyless API for image or JSON output under fair-use limits. The MIT-licensed repository includes a separate local stdio MCP wrapper with the extract_favicon tool for compatible AI clients. It extracts existing icons; it does not generate original artwork, grant rights to third-party logos or provide a hosted HTTP MCP endpoint. Documentation: https://favicondl.com/documentation.html.
