Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp at c133c3853f.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill enables AI agents to interact with IDAPython, the Python scripting environment for IDA Pro disassembler. It allows agents to automate reverse engineering tasks by executing custom scripts, analyzing binary structures, and modifying database entries directly within the IDA Pro interface.

When to use it

  • Automating repetitive analysis routines in large or complex binary files.
  • Generating custom visualization graphs or data exports from IDA Pro databases.
  • Running specific decompilation or pattern-matching scripts without manual intervention.
  • Integrating IDA Pro workflows into broader AI-driven security research pipelines.

Key capabilities

  • Execute IDAPython scripts programmatically via the mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp interface.
  • Access and manipulate IDA Pro's internal database structures.
  • Trigger automated analysis functions defined in Python within the disassembler context.

Example prompts

  • "Run the analyze_strings.py script on the current binary to extract and categorize all ASCII strings."
  • "Generate a graph showing control flow between the main function and any called subroutines using IDAPython."
  • "Modify the cross-references for the function at address 0x401000 to mark it as 'unresolved' in the IDA database."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure IDA Pro is running with a valid license and that the target binary is loaded before attempting script execution. Some advanced IDAPython features may require specific IDA Pro versions or plugins not covered by this skill.
