Super Trouper MCP Server

An MCP server for the Frida reverse engineering toolkit. Super Trouper runs an MCP server over STDIO that exposes Frida capabilities as tools for coding agents. It can connect to local, USB, and remote devices; inspect applications and processes; manage process sessions; and load, evaluate, and exchange messages with JavaScript instrumentation scripts. It can also search Frida CodeShare to discover community scripts…

People who work with application security, frida and pentesting and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Go.

        "-y",
        "@crissyfield/super-trouper"
