What it can do
Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
list_attacksBrowse Mitigant's attack actions -- atomic tests that each emulate one attacker technique -- that you can launch on their own against AWS, Azure or GCP. Currently 111 attack actions (AWS 49, Azure 36, GCP 26). Returns each action's attackName (show this to the user) and attackTyp
get_attack_detailsFull description, impact, MITRE mapping, and orchestration type (PROVISIONED or INLINE -- PROVISIONED attacks create and destroy their own target rather than targeting your existing infrastructure (they may still read or use existing resources along the way), so they're the lower
launch_attackRun an attack against a cloud account connected to Mitigant. Returns the result if it finishes within wait_seconds (default 20); otherwise it returns at once with the attackId and status RUNNING while the attack keeps running -- then poll get_attack_status with that attackId, and
list_cloud_accountsList the cloud accounts available for attack emulation -- any account not listed here cannot be attacked, so check this before guessing an account_no for launch_attack. An empty result means no accounts are onboarded for attack emulation (for that cloud, or at all), not a failure
list_scenariosList Mitigant's attack scenarios -- multi-step chains that combine several attack actions run in sequence, so treat a scenario as having the combined blast radius of every step. Currently 45 scenarios (AWS 26, Azure 12, GCP 7). Returns each scenario's scenarioName (show this to t
get_scenario_detailsFull details for one attack scenario -- description, impact, and the step-by-step composition, by the scenario key from list_scenarios. A scenario runs several attacks in sequence; this returns every step, not just the first. Result includes scenarioName (show this to the user) a
launch_scenarioRun a multi-step attack chain against a cloud account connected to Mitigant. Returns the result if every step finishes within wait_seconds (default 20); a multi-step scenario usually takes longer, so expect it to return at once with the attackId and status RUNNING while it keeps
get_attack_statusGet the current report for a previously launched attack, including its clean-up state. Returns the attack report plus a 'cleanup' summary with cleanUpComplete and a plain-language statement. Only tell the user the account is back to its pre-attack state when cleanup.cleanUpComple
list_recent_attacksList your own recent attack and scenario runs for a cloud account, most recent first, each with its attackId and status. Use this to recover an attackId you no longer have -- for example when a launch_attack / launch_scenario call's connection dropped before it returned, or to ch
get_contextCheck this account's context before planning or launching: whether it is a Mitigant DEMO account and what that allows. Call this first on a new connection. If isDemo is true, every attack or scenario with allowedOnDemo=false WILL be rejected at launch -- treat those as not runnab
clean_up_attackLooks like an instruction to the AIClean up a previously launched attack, restoring the cloud resources it changed back to their pre-attack state. Clean-up is normally AUTOMATIC after a short, deliberate inspection window (so the team can verify the attack and collect evidence first); calling this kicks it off imm
get_attack_evidenceGet the evidence Mitigant collected for a previously launched attack -- what the account's own logging (CloudTrail, GuardDuty) recorded about it. Returns an 'evidence' summary (counts, sources, and a plain-language statement) plus the raw records, each with an evidenceUrl that op

Common questions
Is Mitigant safe?
It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
You need to fill in: apiToken
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 17 days ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.
