### Description (declared)

# re-library-mcp

A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that
exposes the [RE-Library](https://heretek-ai.github.io/RE-Library/)
knowledge base as a set of tools for any MCP-compatible client
(Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, …).

The server reads the same `content/**/*.md` files that the GitHub
Pages site reads, parses them, and serves them over JSON-RPC via
stdio. No hosted backend; runs on the analyst's box.

## Install

```bash
pip install re-library-mcp
```

For development, install from the repo in editable mode:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/Heretek-AI/RE-Library
cd RE-Library/mcp-server
pip install -e ".[dev]"
```

## Use

### From Claude Desktop

Add to `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "re-library": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "re_library_mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Desktop. You'll see `re-library` listed with five tools
available. Try asking:

> *"What are the main ways to bypass SSL pinning on Android?"*

### From Cursor / Continue / any MCP client

Same pattern — point the client at `python -m re_library_mcp` over
stdio. See your client's docs for the exact config key.

## Tools

| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `search_re(query, category?, platform?, max_results?)` | Free-text search; returns up to 5 hits with title, category, snippet, and score. |
| `get_entry(slug)` | Full text of one entry. The slug is `<category>/<NN>-<slug>`, e.g. `android/01-apk-structure`. |
| `list_categories()` | All eight categories with their entry counts. |
| `list_entries(category)` | Lightweight summary of every entry in one category. |
| `get_anti_analysis_techniques(platform?)` | Convenience aggregator for the `anti-analysis` category. |

## Configuration

| Env var | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `RE_LIBRARY_CONTENT_DIR` | (unset) | Path to a local copy of `content/`. If set, the loader reads from disk — useful for development and air-gapped use. |
| `RE_LIBRARY_REPO` …
