SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Write IDAPython scripts efficiently by leveraging verified IDA SDK API workflows from the MCP server to ensure correct, supported patterns are used in automation tasks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Workflow-guided script generation: Retrieve and apply only verified API call sequences from the IDA SDK MCP server.
  • API validation and exploration: Use get_api_doc and list_related_apis to confirm API availability and surface related functions.
  • Robust script structure: Enforce explicit imports, a main() wrapper, and defensive checks for None results.
  • Use Case: Example: generate an IDAPython script that lists all functions in the current database and prints their names.

Quick Start

Provide a natural-language request describing the desired IDA task, and the tool will generate a complete, runnable IDAPython script using verified workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions about write-ida-script

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate an IDAPython script using verified API workflows?▼

To generate an IDAPython script, provide a natural-language request describing your task. The tool decomposes the request, retrieves verified API call sequences from the IDA SDK MCP server, and assembles a complete script with explicit imports and defensive checks.

How can I validate IDA SDK APIs before writing an automation script?▼

Validate IDA SDK APIs by using the get_api_doc and list_related_apis functions. These tools confirm API availability and surface related functions, ensuring your IDAPython script relies on supported patterns directly from the MCP server.

What is the best way to structure an IDAPython script for reverse engineering automation?▼

The best way to structure an IDAPython script is by enforcing explicit imports, a main() wrapper, and defensive None checks. This robust structure ensures your automation workflows execute reliably within the IDA environment.

Does this IDAPython generator work without manual SDK documentation lookups?▼

Yes, it works without manual SDK documentation lookups. The generator consults the IDA SDK MCP server directly to retrieve verified API workflows, automatically validating unfamiliar APIs and composing proven patterns into a runnable script.

Why does my IDAPython script fail when calling unverified IDA SDK functions?▼

IDAPython scripts fail when using unverified functions because they often lack correct call sequences. By retrieving verified API workflows from the IDA SDK MCP server, you ensure proper module-qualified calls and explicit imports for supported automation patterns.

Can I automate listing all functions in an IDA database with a generated script?▼

Yes, you can automate listing all functions in an IDA database. By providing a natural-language request for this task, the tool generates a complete, runnable IDAPython script that prints function names using verified SDK workflows.
