Introduction

The shodan-mcp-server provides a simple way to integrate Shodan intelligence into your applications using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It exposes several tools that allow you to query Shodan for various types of information.

Features

Host Information: Get detailed information about an IP address Search: Query Shodan's database using their search syntax DNS Lookup: Resolve domain names CVE Information: Get details about specific CVE vulnerabilities

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/X3r0K/Shodan-MCP-Server.git
    cd shodan-mcp-server
    
  2. Install the dependencies:

    npm install
    
  3. Build the project:

    npm run build
    

Configuration

  1. Obtain a Shodan API key from Shodan.

  2. Configure the MCP server in your MCP settings file (e.g., ~/.config/mcp/settings.json):

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "shodan": {
          "command": "node",
          "args": ["/path/to/shodan-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
          "env": {
            "SHODAN_API_KEY": "<your_shodan_api_key>"
          },
          "disabled": false,
          "autoApprove": []
        }
      }
    }
    

    Replace <your_shodan_api_key> with your actual Shodan API key and /path/to/shodan-mcp-server with the actual path to the shodan-mcp-server directory.

Usage with Node.js

You can use the MCP server with Node.js using the @modelcontextprotocol/sdk package.

  1. Install the MCP SDK:

    npm install @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
    
  2. Use the use_mcp_tool function to call the tools:

    import { use_mcp_tool } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk';
    
    async function getIpInfo(ip) {
      const result = await use_mcp_tool('shodan', 'get_ip_info', { ip });
      console.log(result);
    }
    
    getIpInfo('8.8.8.8');
