概览

What is MCP Kali Server?

MCP Kali Server is a lightweight API bridge that connects MCP clients such as Claude Desktop or 5ire to a Linux terminal on a Kali machine, enabling AI-assisted penetration testing and CTF challenge solving by executing commands and interacting with tools like Nmap, Metasploit, and Gobuster.

How to use MCP Kali Server?

Install on Kali via sudo apt install mcp-kali-server and run kali-server-mcp. For bleeding edge, clone the repo, create a venv, install dependencies, and run ./server.py. Then run the client on the same or a remote machine, optionally using an SSH tunnel, and configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop or 5ire) with the client command and server address.
