Field-by-field comparison

Compare the evidence before choosing an MCP.

Each signal stays separate, missing facts remain visible, and the column order follows your selection.

MCPs in this comparison

Uncheck an MCP to remove it. Comparing two or three keeps each signal in its own row.

Task fit
Best for
  • Querying decompilation, symbols, references, functions, and analysis state inside Ghidra
  • Creating and editing Unity project assets, scenes, scripts, and editor state through supported AI coding clients
Not ideal for
  • Static analysis workflows that do not use Ghidra or do not need agent-driven interaction
  • Older Unity projects or game-development tasks that do not require direct Editor control
Avoid when
  • The analyzed binary or Ghidra project cannot be exposed to the connected AI client
  • You cannot review or revert agent-made project and scene changes

Access and data
AuthenticationHTTP bearer authentication is optional through GHIDRA_MCP_AUTH_TOKEN; without it authentication is disabled. Non-loopback binding is refused without a token. Scripts require GHIDRA_MCP_ALLOW_SCRIPTS.The WebSocket server defaults to localhost:8090. Remote instructions can bind it to 0.0.0.0; no bearer-token or OAuth mechanism is documented.
CostThe Apache-2.0 project lists no MCP fee. Ghidra, Java, Maven, hosting, and shared-server costs are separate.The publisher describes the MIT-licensed project as free and open source. Unity, Node.js, hosting, client, and model costs are separate.
PermissionsReads and writes binaries and projects, renames and types symbols, adds comments and structures, executes scripts, performs P-code emulation and debugging, and integrates with Ghidra Server.Executes Unity menus and controls scenes, GameObjects, components, materials, assets, packages, tests, logs, play mode, and project-state resources through a WebSocket bridge.
Data handlingOperates on local binaries and projects and optionally shared Ghidra Server data; decompilation, memory, debugger, and script results are returned through MCP. Telemetry and retention are not documented.Unity scenes, assets, project state, and console logs are read or modified locally and returned through MCP. Remote transmission, retention, and telemetry are not documented.
Limitations
Tradeoffs
  • It accelerates navigation and analysis, but agent actions can alter project state and reverse-engineering output still requires expert validation.
  • Direct Editor integration speeds iteration, but setup spans a Unity package and Node server and automated changes may leave the project in an invalid state.
Risk contextWrite access, optional arbitrary Java scripts, debugger control, and shared-server access create substantial integrity and confidentiality risk. Prefer loopback, bearer auth, scopes, scripts disabled, and supervised writes.Can make destructive project changes, install packages, execute menu items, and control play mode. Keep the bridge loopback-only and supervise all writes and deletions in a version-controlled project.
