wireshark-mcp

wireshark-mcp is an MCP server for Claude Code from bx33661/Wireshark-MCP. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A Model Context Protocol server that lets an AI assistant use Wireshark or tshark for examining network packet captures. Wireshark and tshark are tools for inspecting network traffic.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect an AI assistant to local Wireshark or tshark packet-analysis capabilities.
Why use it?
It provides a way to run packet analysis through an MCP connection instead of examining every capture manually in a separate workflow. The input does not specify which analyses or commands it supports.

Security

Grade A, and why

wireshark-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
