secops-field-notes-mcp

The things a security analyst does by hand a dozen times a shift, as tools your coding agent can call: score a CVE, pull the indicators out of a report and defang them for the ticket, read a phishing email's headers properly, work out what kind of hash that is, decode a JWT, turn a timestamp into something a human can read, peel a base64-of-hex payload, and check whether a CVE is on CISA's exploited-in-the-wild list.

Free, MIT, no account, no telemetry. Everything except the KEV lookup runs entirely on your machine.

Tools

analyze_email_headers

Paste the raw source. It unfolds the headers, reads the Received lines in chronological order (they are stored newest-first), computes the delay at each hop, finds the first public IP in the chain, reads the authentication verdicts, and then says what a triage analyst would say:

From        "IT Helpdesk" <helpdesk@corp.example>
Reply-To    helpdesk-reset@evil-mail.example
Auth        SPF pass · DKIM pass · DMARC fail
Origin IP   192.0.2.44

Received chain (origin first, 3 hops):
   1. [10.0.0.5] [192.0.2.44] → relay.example-news.com  2026-09-05 13:59:50Z
   2. relay.example-news.com [198.51.100.9] → mx3.corp.example  2026-09-05 14:00:15Z  +25s
   3. mx3.corp.example [203.0.113.30] → inbox.corp.example  2026-09-05 14:00:20Z  +5s

Warnings:
  ! From domain (corp.example) ≠ Return-Path domain (mailer.example-news.com) …
  ! Reply-To goes to a different domain (evil-mail.example) than From (corp.example) — classic BEC pattern.
  ! DMARC verdict: fail.

cvss_score

The arithmetic is the FIRST specification's, including the Roundup function done in integer arithmetic so floating-point noise never pushes a 4.0 to a 4.1. Log4Shell's vector scores 10.0; AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H scores 9.8. Both are in the test suite.

What it does not do

• No account, no signup, no key. No telemetry.
• Nothing is read from your disk; every input is text you pass in.
• No verification of JWT signatures — it decodes, and says so on every result.
• One network call in the package: lookup_kev fetches CISA's public catalog (about 1.7 MB) and keeps it for an hour. Everything else never opens a socket.
• It does not query VirusTotal, AbuseIPDB or any enrichment service. Those need keys and accounts; this server is for the work you do before and after them.
