|
75
|
+
A modular Python MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server for analyzing PCAP files. mcpcap enables LLMs to read and analyze network packet captures with protocol-specific analysis tools that accept local files or remote URLs as parameters.
|
76
|
+
|
77
|
+
## Overview
|
78
|
+
|
79
|
+
mcpcap uses a modular architecture to analyze different network protocols found in PCAP files. Each module provides specialized analysis tools that can be called independently with any PCAP file, making it perfect for integration with Claude Desktop and other MCP clients.
|
80
|
+
|
81
|
+
### Key Features
|
82
|
+
|
83
|
+
- **Stateless MCP Tools**: Each analysis accepts PCAP file paths or URLs as parameters
|
84
|
+
- **Modular Architecture**: DNS, DHCP, and ICMP modules with easy extensibility for new protocols
|
85
|
+
- **Local & Remote PCAP Support**: Analyze files from local storage or HTTP URLs
|
86
|
+
- **Scapy Integration**: Leverages scapy's comprehensive packet parsing capabilities
|
87
|
+
- **Specialized Analysis Prompts**: Security, networking, and forensic analysis guidance
|
88
|
+
- **JSON Responses**: Structured data format optimized for LLM consumption
|
89
|
+
|
90
|
+
## Installation
|
91
|
+
|
92
|
+
mcpcap requires Python 3.10 or greater.
|
93
|
+
|
94
|
+
### Using pip
|
95
|
+
|
96
|
+
```bash
|
97
|
+
pip install mcpcap
|
98
|
+
```
|
99
|
+
|
100
|
+
### Using uv
|
101
|
+
|
102
|
+
```bash
|
103
|
+
uv add mcpcap
|
104
|
+
```
|
105
|
+
|
106
|
+
### Using uvx (for one-time usage)
|
107
|
+
|
108
|
+
```bash
|
109
|
+
uvx mcpcap
|
110
|
+
```
|
111
|
+
|
112
|
+
## Quick Start
|
113
|
+
|
114
|
+
### 1. Start the MCP Server
|
115
|
+
|
116
|
+
Start mcpcap as a stateless MCP server:
|
117
|
+
|
118
|
+
```bash
|
119
|
+
# Default: Start with DNS, DHCP, and ICMP modules
|
120
|
+
mcpcap
|
121
|
+
|
122
|
+
# Start with specific modules only
|
123
|
+
mcpcap --modules dns
|
124
|
+
|
125
|
+
# With packet analysis limits
|
126
|
+
mcpcap --max-packets 1000
|
127
|
+
```
|
128
|
+
|
129
|
+
### 2. Connect Your MCP Client
|
130
|
+
|
131
|
+
Configure your MCP client (like Claude Desktop) to connect to the mcpcap server:
|
132
|
+
|
133
|
+
```json
|
134
|
+
{
|
135
|
+
"mcpServers": {
|
136
|
+
"mcpcap": {
|
137
|
+
"command": "mcpcap",
|
138
|
+
"args": []
|
139
|
+
}
|
140
|
+
}
|
141
|
+
}
|
142
|
+
```
|
143
|
+
|
144
|
+
### 3. Analyze PCAP Files

mcpcap
|
254
|
+
|
255
|

|
261
|
+
|
262
|
+
## Examples
|
263
|
+
|
264
|
+
Example PCAP files are included in the `examples/` directory:
|
265
|
+
|
266
|
+
- `dns.pcap` - DNS traffic for testing DNS analysis
|
267
|
+
- `dhcp.pcap` - DHCP 4-way handshake capture
|
268
|
+
- `icmp.pcap` - ICMP ping and traceroute traffic
|
269
|
+
|
270
|
+
### Using with MCP Inspector
|
271
|
+
|
272
|
+
```bash
|
273
|
+
npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/inspector
|
274
|
+
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector mcpcap
|
275
|
+
```
|
276
|
+
|
277
|
+
Then test the tools:
|
278
|
+
```javascript
|
279
|
+
// In the MCP Inspector web interface
|
280
|
+
analyze_dns_packets("./examples/dns.pcap")
|
281
|
+
analyze_dhcp_packets("./examples/dhcp.pcap")
|
282
|
+
analyze_icmp_packets("./examples/icmp.pcap")
|
283
|
+
```
|
284
|
+
|
285
|
+
## Architecture
|
286
|
+
|
287
|
+
mcpcap's modular design supports easy extension:
|
288
|
+
|
289
|
+
### Core Components
|
290
|
+
1. **BaseModule**: Shared file handling, validation, and remote download
|
291
|
+
2. **Protocol Modules**: DNS, DHCP, and ICMP analysis implementations
|
292
|
+
3. **MCP Interface**: Tool registration and prompt management
|
293
|
+
4. **FastMCP Framework**: MCP server implementation
|
294
|
+
|
295
|
+
### Tool Flow
|
296
|
+
```
|
297
|
+
MCP Client Request → analyze_*_packets(pcap_file)
|
298
|
+
→ BaseModule.analyze_packets()
|
299
|
+
→ Module._analyze_protocol_file()
|
300
|
+
→ Structured JSON Response
|
301
|
+
```
|
302
|
+
|
303
|
+
### Adding New Modules
|
304
|
+
|
305
|
+
Create new protocol modules by:
|
306
|
+
|
307
|
+
1. Inheriting from `BaseModule`
|
308
|
+
2. Implementing `_analyze_protocol_file(pcap_file)`
|
309
|
+
3. Registering analysis tools with the MCP server
|
310
|
+
4. Adding specialized analysis prompts
|
311
|
+
|
312
|
+
Future modules might include:
|
313
|
+
- HTTP/HTTPS traffic analysis
|
314
|
+
- TCP connection tracking
|
315
|
+
- BGP routing analysis
|
316
|
+
- SSL/TLS certificate analysis
|
317
|
+
- Network forensics tools
|
318
|
+
|
319
|
+
## Remote File Support
|
320
|
+
|
321
|
+
Both analysis tools accept remote PCAP files via HTTP/HTTPS URLs:
|
322
|
+
|
323
|
+
```bash
|
324
|
+
# Examples of remote analysis
|
325
|
+
analyze_dns_packets("https://wiki.wireshark.org/uploads/dns.cap")
|
326
|
+
analyze_dhcp_packets("https://example.com/network-capture.pcap")
|
327
|
+
analyze_icmp_packets("https://example.com/ping-test.pcap")
|
328
|
+
```
|
329
|
+
|
330
|
+
**Features:**
|
331
|
+
- Automatic temporary download and cleanup
|
332
|
+
- Support for `.pcap`, `.pcapng`, and `.cap` files
|
333

## Security Considerations
|
336
|
+
|
337
|
+
When analyzing PCAP files:
|
338
|
+
- Files may contain sensitive network information
|
339
|
+
- Remote downloads are performed over HTTPS when possible
|
340
|
+
- Temporary files are cleaned up automatically
|
341
|
+
- Consider the source and trustworthiness of remote files
