Heatmap TUI

You can use TUI to inspect & edit the Heatmap

# Make sure to initialize the heatmap
uvx mitre-emb3d heatmap init "Project Name" "Description of Project" --output-dir .

• Above command will create mitre-emb3d-heatmap.json file in the specified output directory
• All the entries in the heatmap are set to NOT_INVESTIGATED

# Show the current state (and edit) using TUI
uvx mitre-emb3d tui mitr-emb3d-heatmap.json

Clicking on Threat Entry will open a screen that presents a Form, Information about Threat & Mitigations

MCP Server

At the moment only STDIO is supported

For your mcp.json add the server like this

{
  "servers": {
    "mitre-emb3d": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mitre-emb3d", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Use mcp inspector to play with the MCP Server

npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uvx mitre-emb3d mcp
