- Runs all cybersecurity tools locally — data never leaves your computer
- 9 core tools plus a full_recon tool that runs them in parallel
- Port scanning with 5 scan types (basic, service, os, full, vuln)
- CVE lookup via NVD without requiring an API key
- Subdomain discovery via crt.sh with automatic fallback to HackerTarget
- Integrates with Claude Desktop as an MCP server

Setting up with Highlight

This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:

  1. Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
  2. Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
  3. Configure the plugin with the settings below
    Plugin Name Aynops
    Command (node, npx, python, etc.)

    Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.

  4. Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches

From the repository

Install Python 3.12+, Nmap, and Git. Clone the repository, install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt, then configure Claude Desktop with the full absolute path to the virtual environment’s Python interpreter and the path to server.py in the MCP servers config. For ip_reputation and asn_lookup tools, set ABUSEIPDB_API_KEY and IP_API_KEY environment variables respectively.

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

What is this?

Claude by default has zero native cybersecurity tooling. No WHOIS. No DNS enumeration. No port scanning. No SSL inspection.

This MCP server fixes that — extending Claude with real-world security tools that run live against any domain or IP. Reconnaissance that normally requires multiple specialized tools and 20+ minutes of manual work becomes a single prompt.

This is a local MCP server — it runs entirely on your machine. Your data never leaves your computer.
It is also listed on glama mcp registry.

Single tool — CVE lookup

You: Look up CVEs for apache 2.4.49

Claude: Found 2 critical CVEs for Apache 2.4.49:
CVE-2021-41773 (Score: 9.8 CRITICAL) — Path traversal vulnerability
allowing remote code execution if CGI is enabled. Actively exploited
in the wild...

📋 Prerequisites

- Python 3.12+download
- Claude Desktopdownload
- Nmap — required for port scanning (download)
- Gitdownload

---

⚙️ Installation

Step 1 — Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/AynOps/AynOps
cd AynOps

Step 2 — Install Python dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

Step 3 — Install Nmap

Windows:
1. Download from nmap.org/download.html and run the installer
2. Manually add Nmap to PATH:
- Press Win + S → search "Environment Variables"
- Under System Variables → find Path → click Edit
- Click New → add C:\Program Files (x86)\Nmap
- Click OK on all windows
3. Restart your terminal and verify:

nmap --version

Mac:

brew install nmap

Linux:

sudo apt install nmap

Step 4 — Connect to Claude Desktop

Open your Claude Desktop config file:

| OS | Path |
|---|---|
| Windows | %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json |
| Mac | ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |
| Linux | ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json |

Add this configuration:

Windows:

{
"mcpServers": {
"AynOps": {
"command": "C:\\full\\path\\to\\AynOps\\.venv\\Scripts\\python.exe",
"args": ["C:\\full\\path\\to\\AynOps\\server.py"],
"env": {
"ABUSEIPDB_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here",
"IP_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}

Mac/Linux:

{
"mcpServers": {
"AynOps": {
"command": "/full/path/to/AynOps/.venv/bin/python3",
"args": ["/full/path/to/AynOps/server.py"],
"env": {
"ABUSEIPDB_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here",
"IP_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}

> ⚠️ Always use the full absolute path to your .venv Python executable — not just python or python3. Claude Desktop may use a different Python installation otherwise.

> Note: ABUSEIPDB_API_KEY is only required for the ip_reputation tool. Get a free key at abuseipdb.com. IP_API_KEY is only required for the asn_lookup tool. get a free key at ipapi.com

Step 5 — Restart Claude Desktop

Fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop — closing the window is not enough. Check the system task manager and quit from there.

Verify tools are connected by asking Claude:

What cybersecurity tools do you have available?

Claude should list all tools.

🚀 Usage

Basic tool usage

Do a WHOIS lookup on example.com
Run DNS enumeration on github.com
Scan ports on scanme.nmap.org
Inspect the SSL certificate of stripe.com
Detect the tech stack of wordpress.org
Look up CVEs for apache 2.4.49
Look up CVEs for log4j 2.14.1
Check the reputation of IP 1.2.3.4
ASN Lookup for google.com

Port scan types

| Type | Description | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| basic | Top 100 ports | Fast (~5s) |
| service | Service & version detection | Medium (~15s) |
| os | OS detection (requires admin) | Medium |
| full | All 65535 ports | Slow (~5min) |
| vuln | Vulnerability scripts | Slow (~30s) |

Scan scanme.nmap.org with service detection

Full recon

Do a complete security recon on reddit.com

Claude will run all core tools in parallel and deliver a full security analysis.

Follow-up analysis

Based on the recon, what are the top security risks?
What do the open ports mean from an attacker's perspective?
Is this SSL configuration strong enough for a financial services company?
Cross-reference the open ports with known CVEs for the detected services.

⚠️ Legal & Ethical Usage

> Only scan domains and IPs you own or have explicit written permission to scan.

- All tools use public data — safe on any domain
- Port scanning should only target your own infrastructure or authorized systems
- The only public host officially permitted for Nmap testing is scanme.nmap.org
- Unauthorized port scanning may be illegal in your jurisdiction

Intended for:
- Security researchers
- Penetration testers (on authorized targets)
- Developers auditing their own infrastructure
- Students learning cybersecurity concepts
