Kali_Linux_MCP

Overview

Kali_Linux_MCP exposes Kali tools through:

  • Kali_Linux_Server.py: Flask API wrapping tools like nmap, gobuster, nikto, sqlmap, metasploit, hydra, john, wpscan, enum4linux.
  • MCP_Server.py: MCP bridge using FastMCP, forwarding requests from MCP clients to the API.

Use it for authorized labs, CTFs, HTB/THM machines, or AI-assisted testing via MCP clients (Claude Desktop, 5ire, etc.).


Requirements

  • Kali Linux (or Linux with tools installed in PATH).
  • Python 3 with flask, requests, mcp.
  • Install:
    pip install flask requests mcp

Run

  1. Start API:
    python3 Kali_Linux_Server.py --port 5000

  2. Health check:
    curl http://localhost:5000/health

  3. Start MCP bridge:
    python3 MCP_Server.py --server http://localhost:5000 --timeout 300


API Endpoints

  • GET /health — tool status.
  • POST /api/command — run any command.
  • POST /api/tools/<tool> — wrappers for nmap, gobuster, dirb, nikto, sqlmap, metasploit, hydra, john, wpscan, enum4linux.

Each requires JSON body with tool-specific args (target, url, etc.).


MCP Tools

Bridge registers MCP tools: nmap_scan, gobuster_scan, dirb_scan, nikto_scan, sqlmap_scan, metasploit_run, hydra_attack, john_crack, wpscan_analyze, enum4linux_scan, plus execute_command and check_health.


Example Usage


Scenarios

  • Recon: nmap_scan to map services.
  • Web enum: gobuster_scan or dirb_scan.
  • Vuln triage: nikto_scan, sqlmap_scan.
  • WordPress checks: wpscan_analyze.
  • SMB recon: enum4linux_scan.
  • Credential tests (lab only): hydra_attack.
  • Exploit check: metasploit_run.

Notes

  • Supports AI-assisted workflows: models suggest and run commands.
  • Works with Claude Desktop, 5ire MCP clients.
  • Extendable: other forensic tools (Volatility, SleuthKit) possible.
