Enigma Python MCP Tools (1)

encrypt_message

Encrypt or decrypt a message using a specified Enigma machine configuration. Args: machine_model: Exact machine model name. MUST be one of: 'M3', 'M4', 'I', 'I_Norway', 'I_Sondermaschine', 'K', 'K_Swiss', 'D', 'Z', 'B_A133', 'T'. Do not add 'Enigma' prefix. Supported models and their explicitly required reflectors: - 'M3', 'I': UKWA, UKWB, UKWC - 'M4': UKWBThin, UKWCThin - 'I_Norway': UKW_EnigmaINorway - 'I_Sondermaschine': UKW_EnigmaISonder - 'K', 'K_Swiss', 'D': UKW_EnigmaCommercial - 'Z': UKW_EnigmaZ - 'B_A133': UKW_EnigmaB_A133 - 'T': UKW_EnigmaT message: The plaintext or ciphertext to process. - For Enigma Z: MUST contain ONLY digits (1234567890). - For Enigma B_A133: MUST contain ONLY Swedish letters (abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvxyzåäö). Note: 'w' is strictly forbidden. - For all other machines: MUST contain ONLY standard letters (A-Z). - Spaces, punctuation, and special characters are strictly forbidden in all machines. rotors: List of RotorConfig objects. MUST be ordered exactly as: [Fastest/Rightmost, Middle, Slowest/Leftmost, Greek (if M4)]. reflector: The ReflectorConfig object. plugboard_pairs: Optional dict for plugboard connections (e.g. {"A": "B", "C": "D"}). Ignored if the machine has no plugboard.
