What is the Red MCP server?

Red-team-mcp An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for AI agents to use during red teaming exercises. ## Overview This server provides resources and tools for AI agents to access during red teaming scenarios. It implements the Model. That is what the red mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

The short version

subgraph "MCP Server Components" Server --> PortScanner[Port Scanner Module] Server --> VulnScanner[Vulnerability Scanner Module] Server --> SSHTools[SSH Tools Module] Server --> Metasploit[Metasploit Integration] Server --> DomainDiscovery[Domain Discovery Module] Server <--> Database[(MongoDB Database)] end

The tools it exposes

The server publishes 1 tool. What each one is for:

  • mongodb — nuclei

Getting it running

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at pymetasploit3 on PyPI and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

How it compares

Plenty of database access servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Red's toolset — mongodb — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by skjortan23; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Things to watch

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
