IDA Pro MCP (Enhanced Fork)
中文文档 | English
An enhanced fork of mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp - MCP Server for LLM-assisted reverse engineering in IDA Pro.
What's Different from Original
| Feature | Original | This Fork |
|---|---|---|
| Multi-instance Support | ❌ Port conflict crashes | ✅ Auto port increment (13337→13346) |
| Web Configuration | ❌ None | ✅ Bilingual UI at /config.html |
| API Key Auth | ❌ None | ✅ Bearer token + env var support |
| Server Startup | Manual hotkey | ✅ Auto-start on IDA launch |
| Hotkey Conflicts | Occupies Ctrl+Alt+M | ✅ No hotkey, menu-only |
| Config Persistence | None | ✅ Saved per IDB database |
Key Enhancements
- Port Conflict Auto-Retry: Multiple IDA instances automatically use different ports
- Web Config UI:
http://localhost:13337/config.htmlwith English/中文 interface - API Key Authentication: Secure remote access with Bearer token
- Bug Fixes: Thread safety, regex handling, type parsing errors fixed
Installation
pip install ida-pro-mcp-xjoker
ida-pro-mcp --install
Restart IDA Pro completely after installation.
Quick Start
- Open a binary in IDA Pro
- MCP server starts automatically on
http://127.0.0.1:13337 - Configure your MCP client:
# Claude Code
claude mcp add ida-pro-mcp http://127.0.0.1:13337/mcp
# With API Key authentication
claude mcp add --transport http ida-pro-mcp http://127.0.0.1:13337/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key"
- Open web config at
http://127.0.0.1:13337/config.htmlto customize settings
Requirements
- Python 3.11+
- IDA Pro 8.3+ (9.0 recommended), IDA Free not supported
- Any MCP-compatible client
