What is checkpoint-security-mcp-servers?

checkpoint-security-mcp-servers is an open-source implementation of Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers designed for Check Point security products. It enables AI agents to interact with Check Point firewalls, endpoint solutions, and logging capabilities through a standardized protocol. This is an independent community project, not officially affiliated with Check Point Software Technologies.

How to use checkpoint-security-mcp-servers?

Clone the repository, set up a Python 3.8+ virtual environment, install dependencies from requirements.txt, configure a Check Point Management API key and manager URL, then run the desired server (e.g., python src/firewall/server.py). Connect an MCP-compatible AI client (like Claude Desktop) over standard I/O to discover and invoke tools such as checkpoint_login_test.

FAQ from checkpoint-security-mcp-servers

What dependencies are required to run the server?

Python 3.8+ and a Check Point Management Server with API access are required. Dependencies are listed in requirements.txt.

How do I configure API access?

Obtain an API key from your Check Point Management Server and note the manager URL (IP/hostname and port). For initial testing with self-signed certificates you may use verify=False, but production environments require proper certificate validation.

What capabilities are currently implemented?

Only the checkpoint_login_test Tool in the Firewall MCP server, which tests connectivity to the Management API using an API key.

What future capabilities are planned?

Full firewall tools (e.g., BlockIPTool), log retrieval resources, Harmony Endpoint server with endpoint isolation and status checks, and improved error handling.

What transport does the server use?

The server runs over standard I/O (stdin/stdout) and waits for an MCP client connection. No HTTP or WebSocket transport is mentioned.
