ghidra-mcp
Ghidra MCP Server — 200+ MCP tools for AI-powered reverse engineering. GUI plugin + headless server, lazy tool loading, convention enforcement, batch operations, Ghidra Server integration, and Docker deployment.

Project mention: We hid backdoors in ~40MB binaries and asked AI and Ghidra to find them | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-02-22
It seems to be an active space, vide a recent MCP server (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46882389). I you haven't tried, recommend a lot posting it as Show HN.
I tried a few approaches - https://github.com/jtang613/GhidrAssistMCP (was the harderst to set) Ghidra analyzeHeadless (GPT-5.2-Codex worked with it well!) and PyGhidra (my go-to). Did you try to see which works the best?
I mean, very likely (especially with an explicit README for AI, https://github.com/akiselev/ghidra-cli/blob/master/.claude/s...) your approach might be more convenient to use with AI agents.

ghidra-scripts
A collection of my Ghidra scripts to facilitate reverse engineering and vulnerability research.
Project mention: Automating Zero-Day Discovery in Windows Kernel Drivers with LangChain DeepAgents | dev.to | 2026-04-06All ~7,500 candidates get decompiled headless by Ghidra. This is the main computational bottleneck of the pipeline—it takes roughly 1 to 3 minutes to extract the dispatch logic per driver depending on complexity. Fortunately, doing this concurrently across a thread pool brings the time down significantly. Scanning the massive 7.5k candidate pack finishes overnight on my machine.
