Magicsword MCP Overview

The magicsword-mcp MCP server connects MCP clients to MagicSword’s customer API for endpoint, alert, policy, and private intelligence management. It runs locally over stdio and authenticates with an Enterprise API key, using the Magic Portal API by default. Read operations cover endpoint status, alerts, events, policies, and agent releases, while selected changes use preview-and-confirm workflows. Reach for it when an MCP client needs conversational access to MagicSword security operations.

Primary Use Cases for Magicsword MCP:

Investigate MagicSword alerts by severity, host, or MITRE technique
Review endpoint compliance, policy state, and agent versions
Preview and apply policy changes to selected endpoints
Maintain private intelligence feeds and policy sources
