Mcp Pcapy Ng

Overview

Mcp Pcapy Ng is a Model Context Protocol server that brings packet capture functionality to your AI assistant through pcapy-ng. Once connected, Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients can invoke packet capture tools directly, letting you analyze network traffic programmatically within your workflow.

The server runs locally on your machine as a Python package. Install it with uvx mcp-pcapy-ng and it communicates with your MCP client over stdio—no authentication needed. Version v0.1.0 is available now under the MIT license, with full source code at daedalus/mcp-pcapy-ng on GitHub.

Mcp Pcapy Ng belongs in the Development category. It works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and compatible MCP clients. If you maintain this server, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information current.
