About

What is ida-pro-mcp?

ida-pro-mcp is an AI-powered reverse engineering assistant designed to integrate IDA Pro with various language models via the MCP (Model Communication Protocol). This tool enhances the reverse engineering workflow by allowing users to leverage AI for tasks such as inspecting decompilation, renaming variables, changing types, and refining function names. It supports a wide range of MCP clients, including Amazon Q Developer CLI, Claude, Copilot CLI, and VS Code. Users can configure the tool with custom prompts to guide the AI's analysis, ensuring specific strategies are followed, such as avoiding manual number base conversions and utilizing dedicated MCP tools for complex operations. The tool also offers advanced features like SSE transport for UI connections and headless operation for automated analysis, making it a versatile solution for technical users in reverse engineering.

FAQs

What are the prerequisites for using ida-pro-mcp?

To use ida-pro-mcp, you need Python 3.11 or higher, IDA Pro 8.3 or higher (IDA Free is not supported), and a supported MCP client such as Amazon Q Developer CLI, Claude, or VS Code. Ensure you use idapyswitch for Python version management.

How do I install ida-pro-mcp?

Install the latest version by running `pip uninstall ida-pro-mcp` followed by `pip install https://github.com/mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp/archive/refs/heads/main.zip`. Then, configure MCP servers and install the IDA Plugin with `ida-pro-mcp --install`. A complete restart of IDA and your MCP client is required.

How can I improve the accuracy of LLMs with ida-pro-mcp?

To enhance LLM accuracy, instruct the model to use the `int_convert` MCP tool for number base conversions and consider `math-mcp` for complex calculations. Pre-process obfuscated code by removing string encryption, import hashing, and control flow flattening. Utilize tools like Lumina or FLIRT to resolve library code.
