khuynh22/mcp-wireshark
An MCP server that integrates Wireshark/tshark with AI tools and IDEs. Capture live traffic, parse .pcap files, apply display filters, follow streams, and export JSON - all via Claude Desktop, VS Code, or CLI. Cross‑platform, typed, tested, and pip‑installable.
This tool helps network engineers, security analysts, and system administrators analyze network traffic more efficiently using AI assistants or IDEs. It takes live network captures or existing .pcap files, applies powerful Wireshark display filters, and extracts specific data like TCP/UDP stream payloads. The output is structured JSON, making it easier to integrate network analysis into automated workflows or AI-powered investigations.
Available on PyPI.
Use this if you need to quickly inspect network traffic, diagnose connectivity issues, or analyze security incidents directly from your AI assistant or development environment without manually navigating the full Wireshark GUI.
Not ideal if you primarily need visual packet inspection, advanced graphing, or interactive protocol dissection that requires Wireshark's full graphical user interface.
