Connects IDA Pro to an agent so it can query functions, cross-references, strings, and decompiled output while you analyze a binary.
What it does
Connects IDA Pro to an agent so it can query functions, cross-references, strings, and decompiled output while you analyze a binary. Requires IDA running locally with the plugin installed — this is an integration, not a standalone service. Niche, but the alternative is switching windows every thirty seconds.
Install
pip install https://github.com/mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
Client configuration
Paste this into your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any client that reads mcpServers), then restart the client.

When to use it
Reach for this when the task needs reverse-engineering inside the agent loop. Skip it if a plain shell command or a one-off script is enough — every server you add costs context and adds a failure mode.
