About The Sleuth Kit Mcp Server

The Sleuth Kit Mcp Server exposes Sleuth Kit command-line utilities to forensic analysts using MCP clients. It supports examination of filesystem images and extraction of files by inode, including preserving the source directory structure.

Key features

  1. 01Check Sleuth Kit binary availability
  2. 02Inspect disk and partition information
  3. 03Find inode by file path
  4. 04List directory contents
  5. 05Extract files and directory trees by inode
  6. 06Read inode metadata

Use cases

  1. 01Examine filesystem images such as E01 or RAW
  2. 02Locate a file's inode from its path
  3. 03Extract a file or directory tree from an image

MCP support

It exposes Sleuth Kit operations as MCP tools for clients such as Cursor and Claude Desktop, including disk inspection, path and directory lookup, extraction, and inode metadata.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

The Sleuth Kit MCP Server

The Sleuth Kit MCP Server는 Sleuth Kit CLI 도구(mmstat, mmls, fls, ifind, icat)를 Model Context Protocol (MCP) 서버 형태로 노출합니다. 이를 통해 Cursor, Claude Desktop 등 MCP 클라이언트에서 파일시스템 이미지(E01, RAW, VMDK 등) 를 분석하고 파일을 추출할 수 있습니다.

Tools

  • sleuthkit_healthcheck : Sleuth Kit 바이너리 설치 상태 점검
  • disk_info : file 명령어와 mmstat으로 디스크 이미지 파일 정보 확인
  • disk_partition_info : mmls로 디스크 파티션 정보 분석
  • search_inode_by_path : ifind로 메인 파티션 오프셋을 기준으로 직접 경로 탐색을 통해 해당 폴더의 inode 번호 확인
  • files_in_directory : fls로 폴더의 내용 확인
  • extract_files_by_inode : icat으로 inode 번호를 활용한 파일 추출
  • extract_directory_tree_by_inode : icat으로 원본 경로 구조를 유지하며 inode 번호를 활용한 파일 추출
  • istat_metadata : istat으로 디스크 이미지에서 inode를 기반으로 해당 파일들의 메타 정보 확인

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
