How does Proyecto HTB Agent differ from typical CTF automation scripts?
It focuses on natural language documentation and uses cline.bot's native MCP tool execution, avoiding additional abstraction layers.

Basic information
An AI agent powered by cline.bot designed to solve Capture The Flag (CTF) challenges on a Kali Linux virtual machine via an MCP Server.
No standard config provided
This server doesn't expose a parseable MCP config block in its README. See the repository for install instructions.

This listing does not currently have a tool list to display. This does not mean the server has no tools; check its documentation for supported capabilities.
We auto-extract tools from the README. The maintainer can list them under a ## Tools heading to populate this section.
Proyecto HTB Agent is an AI agent designed for cline.bot that assists in solving Hack The Box (HTB) machines and security CTFs using an MCP server running on Kali Linux. It leverages natural language documentation to define workflows instead of Python code, allowing direct interaction with the MCP server.
Create a machine folder inside htb-agent/ctf_docs/ with an info.json file containing target_ip, hostname, os, and other fields. Then invoke the agent with a command like "Cline, inicia el agente para la máquina '[machine-name]'". The agent reads info.json, interprets workflow structures from main_agent.py, and uses workflows.md to execute tools via the native use_mcp_tool capability.

A Kali Linux machine with an accessible MCP server, and cline.bot configured to use that server.
Within the specific machine's folder under `htb-agent/ctf_docs/[machine-name]/`, in the `info.json` file which gets updated as the agent progresses.
The README specifies the server name "kali-mcp" and URL `http://10.196.1.68:5000`, but does not detail authentication or transport method beyond HTTP.
The agent assumes the Kali MCP server is already configured and accessible; no other limitations are mentioned.
