IDA Pro MCP

This repository hosts a simple MCP Server designed to facilitate reverse engineering within IDA Pro. It offers functionalities like retrieving metadata, function information by name or address, current address/function details, number conversion, function listing, decompilation/disassembly, xrefs, entry points, and setting comments/renaming functions/variables.

The author created this MCP server due to dissatisfaction with existing solutions, aiming for dependency-free plugin installation, streamlined feature addition, and personal learning. The plugin, mcp-plugin.py, can be directly copied into the IDA plugins folder.

The README provides instructions for installing the MCP server in Cline, including configuring the cline_mcp_settings.json file. It also includes a section on prompt engineering for LLMs, emphasizing the importance of specific prompts and the use of the convert_number MCP tool to avoid manual base conversions. The repository also provides information on how to add new features.
