IDA Pro MCP
MCP server for IDA Pro: a model can read disassembly and decompiled code, rename, retype and comment, in the IDA window or headless with idalib.

At a glance
- Best for
- Agent-driven analysis in IDA Pro from LM Studio or another MCP client.
- Inference engine
- uses your MCP client’s model server
- GPU support
- None of its own: it talks to a llama.cpp or MLX LM server
- Opens
- GGUF
- MLX
- Features
- MCP tools
- Tool calling
- Platforms
- Runs with IDA Pro (paid, from Hex-Rays); headless mode needs idalib and uv.
