Advanced tools
MCP server for Emfirge — graph-based AWS security scanning. Privacy-first: tokenizes resource IDs before sending to LLMs.
MCP server for Emfirge — graph-based AWS attack-path scanning. Privacy-first.
npx @emfirge/mcp install
Auto-detects and wires up: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Kiro, Cline, Continue. Restart your client. Then ask:
"Scan my AWS account, role
arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/EmfirgeReadOnly, region us-east-1"
No AWS account? Use the demo ARN — fake infrastructure, real engine, zero setup:
arn:aws:iam::194722410583:role/EmfirgeReadOnly
region: us-east-1
"Scan with
arn:aws:iam::194722410583:role/EmfirgeReadOnlyinus-east-1"
Don't have a role yet but want to scan your real AWS? Just say "help me set up Emfirge" — your assistant will give you a one-click CloudFormation deploy link.
Limit: 15 scans/day per AWS account. No signup. No API keys.
In strict mode (default), AWS resource IDs are tokenized before they
reach the LLM:
What the LLM sees: "SG_001 has SSH open"
What's on your disk: SG_001 = sg-0a1b2c3d
Mapping lives at ~/.emfirge/tokens.json. Never sent anywhere.
You pick a privacy mode the first time you run npx @emfirge/mcp install.
Change it any time afterwards:
npx @emfirge/mcp privacy strict # default — hide every AWS ID
npx @emfirge/mcp privacy balanced # hide ARNs / IAM / IPs / account IDs only
npx @emfirge/mcp privacy off # send raw IDs (best LLM output, least private)
npx @emfirge/mcp privacy # show current mode per client
The CLI flag updates every wired client at once. Restart your MCP host (Claude Code, Cursor, Kiro, etc.) for the change to take effect.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
emfirge_setup_help | Returns a clickable CloudFormation deploy link |
emfirge_scan | Scan an AWS account, returns score + analysis_id |
emfirge_get_findings | Get findings list for a scan, filterable by severity |
emfirge_attack_paths | Get attack paths from internet to internal resources |
emfirge_verify_fix | Simulate fixing a finding, see the score delta (no AWS changes) |
emfirge_check_compliance | CIS AWS Foundations / SOC 2 compliance status |
emfirge_simulate_breach | Full kill-chain walkthrough — attack stages, blast radius, follow-up moves |
All tools are deterministic on the backend side — no LLM calls inside the MCP path. Your host LLM (Claude / Cursor / etc.) is the only AI in the loop.
If auto-install doesn't work, add this to your client's MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"emfirge": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@emfirge/mcp"],
"env": { "EMFIRGE_PRIVACY": "strict" }
}
}
}
