What is IDA Pro MCP Server?
A Model Context Protocol server that bridges AI assistants with IDA Pro, enabling reverse engineering and binary analysis tasks through a standardized interface.
How to use IDA Pro MCP Server?
Install the IDA Pro Remote Control Plugin by copying ida_remote_server.py to IDA’s plugins directory, then start IDA Pro with a binary. Install and build the MCP server from source using Node.js 18+/TypeScript, then configure it in your AI assistant’s MCP settings file under mcpServers. The server exposes tools like run_ida_command, get_functions, and search_text.
