attackforge-mcp

An MCP server that connects AI assistants (Claude, etc.) to the AttackForge Self-Service API (SSAPI).


vs. the official AttackForge MCP

AttackForge publishes an official MCP server. It exposes a limited subset of the SSAPI — specifically: whoami, get_file, count_projects, count_vulnerabilities, count_writeups, find_affected_assets, find_projects, find_writeups, find_vulnerabilities, and get_field_structure.

This server covers the full SSAPI and adds a layer of context efficiency on top, designed specifically for use inside long AI conversations:

Official MCP

attackforge-mcp

API coverage

10 endpoints

Full SSAPI

Response passthrough

Raw API JSON

Slimmed (see below)

HTML fields

Returned

Stripped globally (−40–60% size)

List responses

Full objects

Summary projection + total/has_more envelope

Static data (form configs, testsuite library, project index)

Re-fetched every call

SQLite cache with TTLs

Cache management

cache tool (stats, invalidate)

Escape hatch

raw_request for any unlisted endpoint

Why it matters: Large tool responses dump hundreds of lines of JSON into context on every call. Over a multi-step engagement that context fills up fast. By stripping HTML duplicates, projecting summary fields, and caching data that never changes mid-engagement, this server keeps each tool response as small as possible without losing information.
