Rapid7 InsightIDR MCP Server

TypeScript 5.7 Node.js MCP SDK Rapid7 License: MIT

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI assistants with access to Rapid7 InsightIDR, a cloud-native SIEM for modern detection and response. Query investigations, search logs with LEQL, analyze alerts, track assets, monitor user behavior, and manage threat intelligence.

Features

Investigations

  • Search and filter investigations by status, priority, assignee, date range

  • Create, update, and manage investigation lifecycle

  • Add comments and retrieve associated alerts

  • Build investigation timelines

Log Search (LEQL)

  • Execute LEQL (Log Entry Query Language) queries across log sets

  • List available log sets (Firewall, DNS, DHCP, Endpoint, Cloud, Active Directory)

  • Retrieve individual log entries and aggregate statistics

  • LEQL syntax reference and examples

Alerts

  • List and filter alerts by severity, type, status, date

  • Get full alert details with evidence and indicators

  • Update alert status (open, investigating, closed)

  • Evidence extraction for investigation

Assets

  • Search endpoints by hostname, IP, OS, agent status

  • Full asset details: software inventory, vulnerabilities, agent info

  • Recent activity: logins, processes, network connections

User Behavior Analytics (UBA)

  • Search user accounts across the organization

  • Activity analysis: login patterns, locations, accessed assets

  • Risky user identification with behavior scoring

  • Anomaly detection and alert correlation

Threat Intelligence

  • IOC management: IPs, domains, file hashes

  • Add indicators to threat library

  • Search for threat indicator matches across logs

Saved Queries

  • List and manage saved LEQL queries

  • Create reusable queries with descriptions

  • LEQL syntax helper with examples

LEQL Query Examples

-- Find all blocked traffic from a source
where(source_address = 10.0.0.1 AND action = BLOCK)

-- Top talkers by connection count
groupby(source_address) calculate(count) sort(desc)

-- Failed logins for a specific user
