Forensic ToolkitSAFE
Secure AI-enabled digital forensics toolkit built with Model Context Protocol
Overview
From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.
MCP Forensic Toolkit is a secure, AI-ready local server for digital forensics, built using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It exposes semantically meaningful tools to analyze logs, verify file integrity, and generate audit-grade forensic reports. Designed for analysts and LLMs alike, it enables automated investigation with precision and safety.
Features
- Structured log triage using keyword-based scanning (
scan_syslog) - File metadata extraction and SHA-256 hashing (
file_metadata) - Recursive integrity scanning with directory hashing (
hash_directory) - Correlation engine linking file modifications to log events (
correlate_file_and_logs) - Human-readable forensic reporting (
generate_forensic_report) - Secure access control via
SAFE_BASEand sandboxed environment - Built-in LLM prompts for guided reasoning and forensic tasks

This example demonstrates a successful correlation analysis between a file and system log entries using the generate_forensic_report tool:

Questions
What is the Forensic Toolkit MCP server?
Secure AI-enabled digital forensics toolkit built with Model Context Protocol
What tools does Forensic Toolkit expose?
5 in total: 5 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Forensic Toolkit safe to connect to an agent?
The audit found nothing in the source that contradicts what it says it does, and graded it B (89/100). Grade A is held back for packages that have also passed a sandboxed behavioural run, which is why a clean server reads B.
What credentials does Forensic Toolkit need?
No credential environment variables were found in its source, so it appears to need none.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (9b0610441ea6), read on 2026-10-09. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
