Installation
# Install dependencies
pip3 install frida frida-tools mcp
# Or with --break-system-packages on newer Ubuntu
pip3 install --break-system-packages frida frida-tools mcp
Usage
As stdio MCP server
python3 server.py
Example MCP configuration
{
"mcpServers": {
"frida": {
"command": "python3",
"args": ["/path/to/frida-mcp/server.py"]
}
}
}
Example Workflows
1. List processes and attach
1. Call frida_list_processes to see running processes
2. Call frida_attach with target="processName" or target=1234 (PID)
3. Use the returned session_id for further operations
2. Hook a function
1. frida_attach to the target process
2. frida_hook_function with the session_id, function name, and optional onEnter/onLeave code
3. Observe the script_id and retrieve logs with frida_unload_script when done
3. Trace SSL/crypto calls
1. frida_attach to a network application
2. frida_trace with include=["*SSL*", "*crypto*"] to see all SSL-related calls
4. Android app analysis
1. frida_list_applications on USB device to find the app
2. frida_attach to the app
3. frida_java_enumerate_classes to explore classes
4. frida_java_hook_method to intercept specific methods
5. frida_java_find_instances to find live objects
5. Memory forensics
1. frida_attach to the target process
2. frida_search_strings to find interesting strings
3. frida_memory_read to dump specific memory regions
4. frida_memory_scan for byte patterns
