README
mcp-server-nmap
MCP server that exposes the python-nmap library as MCP tools for network scanning operations.
What is this?
This MCP server wraps the python-nmap library, allowing AI assistants to perform network reconnaissance through MCP tools. It provides three scanning interfaces:
- PortScanner (synchronous) - Blocking scans that wait for completion
- PortScannerAsync (asynchronous) - Non-blocking scans with callbacks
- PortScannerYield (generator) - Streaming results as hosts are discovered
Prerequisites
- nmap must be installed on the system
- Python 3.10+
Install
pip install mcp-server-nmap
mcp-name: io.github.daedalus/mcp-server-nmap
MCP Server Registration
Add this to your MCP settings file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-server-nmap": {

}
}
}
Or with custom nmap path:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-server-nmap": {
"command": "mcp-server-nmap",
"env": {
"PATH": "/custom/path:$PATH"
}
}
}
}
