What Ida Multi Mcp does

Multi-instance IDA Pro MCP server for simultaneous reverse engineering of multiple binaries through a single MCP endpoint.

Test This Server

No automated test available for this server. Check the GitHub README for setup instructions.

README

ida-multi-mcp

Multi-instance IDA Pro MCP server for simultaneous reverse engineering of multiple binaries through a single MCP endpoint. Supports both GUI instances and headless analysis via idalib (IDA Pro only).

Why ida-multi-mcp?

Analyze multiple binaries in parallel — dropper, payload, C2 — through a single MCP connection. Each IDA Pro instance auto-registers on startup; your LLM client sees every instance without touching its config.

Quick Start

Just ask your AI agent to install it. Copy-paste one of these prompts — it handles the Python version matching, IDA plugin placement, and MCP client registration for you.

Claude Code / AmpCode:

Install and configure ida-multi-mcp by following the instructions here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MeroZemory/ida-multi-mcp/main/docs/installation.md

Cursor:

@Web fetch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MeroZemory/ida-multi-mcp/main/docs/installation.md and follow the installation steps.

Once installed, open your binaries in IDA Pro (instances auto-register) and ask your LLM:

"Decompile main in malware.exe (k7m2) and compare it with the entry point in dropper.dll (px3a)"

Prefer to install by hand? See Manual Installation below.

Features

Zero-configuration instance discovery — Each IDA Pro instance auto-registers on startup
Headless analysis (IDA Pro) — Open binaries without GUI via idalib_open — each session runs as an isolated subprocess
Port-collision free — Uses OS auto-assigned ports (port 0)
Dynamic tool discovery — All 80+ IDA tools available automatically
1-call binary triage — survey_binary returns metadata, segments, top strings/functions, imports, and call graph in one call
Cross-binary analysis — Target specific instances via instance_id parameter
Smart instance tracking — 4-character IDs (k7m2, px3a, etc.) with automatic binary-change detection
IDA 8.3–9.3 compatible — Built-in version compatibility shims (compat.py)
File-based registry — Tracks all active instances (GUI and headless)
Graceful fallback — Handles binary changes, stale instances, and crashes

Requirements

Python 3.11 or later
IDA Pro 8.3+ (9.0 recommended)

Manual Installation

Already used the AI-agent prompt in Quick Start? You can skip this section.

Pick your platform:

macOS — requires matching IDA's Python version

Important: IDA Pro typically uses a different Python version than your system default (e.g., IDA uses Python 3.11 while macOS ships with 3.14). You must install the package for both your terminal Python and IDA's Python.

Step 1: Check IDA's Python version

Open IDA Pro, then in the IDA console run:

Python> import sys; print(sys.version)

Note the version (e.g., 3.11).

Step 2: Install

# 1. Install CLI tool via pipx (for terminal commands)
pipx install git+https://github.com/MeroZemory/ida-multi-mcp.git

# 2. Install package for IDA's Python (replace 3.11 with your IDA's version)
python3.11 -m pip install --user git+https://github.com/MeroZemory/ida-multi-mcp.git

# 3. Install IDA plugin + configure MCP clients
