Installation

Installing via Smithery

To install Burpsuite Server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @Cyreslab-AI/burpsuite-mcp-server --client claude

Manual Installation

  1. Build the server:

    cd /path/to/burpsuite-server
    npm install
    npm run build
    
  2. Add the server to your MCP settings configuration file:

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "burpsuite": {
          "command": "node",
          "args": ["/path/to/burpsuite-server/build/index.js"],
          "env": {},
          "disabled": false,
          "autoApprove": []
        }
      }
    }
    

Future Enhancements

This server currently provides mock functionality. To connect it to a real Burpsuite Professional instance:

  1. Configure Burpsuite Professional to expose its REST API
  2. Update the server implementation to connect to the Burpsuite REST API
  3. Add authentication mechanisms for secure API communication

Example Usage

Here are some examples of how to use the Burpsuite MCP server with an AI assistant:
