falcon-mcp
falcon-mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects AI agents with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform, powering intelligent security analysis in your agentic workflows. It delivers programmatic access to essential security capabilities—including detections, threat intelligence, and host management—establishing the foundation for advanced security operations and automation.
IMPORTANT
🚧 Public Preview: This project is currently in public preview and under active development. Features and functionality may change before the stable 1.0 release. While we encourage exploration and testing, please avoid production deployments. We welcome your feedback through GitHub Issues to help shape the final release.

Container Usage
# Pull the latest image
docker pull quay.io/crowdstrike/falcon-mcp:latest
# Run with .env file (stdio transport)
docker run -i --rm --env-file /path/to/.env quay.io/crowdstrike/falcon-mcp:latest
# Run with streamable-http transport
docker run --rm -p 8000:8000 --env-file /path/to/.env \
quay.io/crowdstrike/falcon-mcp:latest --transport streamable-http --host 0.0.0.0
See the Docker Deployment guide for building locally, custom ports, and advanced configurations.
Dynamic Mode
Running many modules at once inflates the context window every AI client must hold. Dynamic mode
replaces the full tool surface with three tools — falcon_list_enabled_modules to see which
modules are loaded, falcon_search_tools to discover the right tool on demand, and
falcon_execute_tool to run it — so agents only load the schemas they actually need.
falcon-mcp --dynamic
# or: FALCON_MCP_DYNAMIC=true
See the Dynamic Mode guide for the full discover → execute workflow and trade-offs.
Deployment Options
