Dynamically scan and analyze potentially malicious URLs using the urlDNA.io
The urlDNA MCP Server
enables native tool use for security-focused LLM agents like OpenAI GPT-4.1 and Claude 3 Desktop, providing a direct interface to interact with the urlDNA threat intelligence platform via API.
The urlDNA MCP
server is already hosted and available at:
https://mcp.urldna.io/sse
This server is accessible over Server-Sent Events (SSE) protocol, which supports streaming interactions between LLMs and the backend tools.
You can use it directly with any platform or LLM supporting the mcp
specification (e.g., Claude Desktop, OpenAI GPT-4.1).
The following tools are exposed by the MCP interface:
Tool | Description |
---|---|
new_scan | Submit a new scan for a given URL |
get_scan | Retrieve a scan by ID |
search | Search scans using text, domain, or filters |
fast_check | Lightweight phishing detection via content + redirect analysis |
To integrate the urlDNA MCP server
in Claude Desktop, update your Claude configuration (typically claude.config.json
or equivalent) like so:
{
"mcpServers": {
"urlDNA": {
"command": "python",
"args": [
"<YOUR_PATH>/run.py"
],
"env": {
"authorization": "<urlDNA_API_KEY>"
}
}
}
}
Replace
<YOUR_PATH>
with the actual path torun.py
, and<urlDNA_API_KEY>
with your API key from https://urldna.io.
Once configured, you can prompt Claude with natural language requests like:
"Search in urlDNA for malicious scans with title like paypal"
Claude will automatically call the correct tool and return results from the urlDNA
platform.
from openai import OpenAI
# Initialize OpenAI client (assumes API key is set via env var or config)
client = OpenAI()
response = client.responses.create(
