Common questions

Is Ironscales safe?

It passed 2 of 2 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: IRONSCALES_API_KEY, IRONSCALES_COMPANY_ID

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed yesterday, and the latest version (1.2.1) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Docker on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Ironscales MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Ironscales email security. Enables AI assistants to investigate phishing incidents, manage email classification, execute remediations, and view security statistics.

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects Claude (or any MCP-compatible AI) to your Ironscales environment.

Part of the [MSP Claude Plugins](https://github.com/WYRE-AI) ecosystem — a growing suite of AI integrations for the MSP stack. Built by MSPs, for MSPs.

Interactive Incident Card (MCP Apps)

ironscales_incidents_get renders as an interactive card in MCP Apps hosts (Claude Desktop/web) showing the phishing incident's subject, status, severity, sender, affected recipients, and threat indicators; plain-JSON behavior is unchanged in other hosts. The card is read-only — remediation stays with the model-driven remediation tools. It is neutral by default and brandable via window.__BRAND__ injection or MCP_BRAND_* env vars (MCP_BRAND_NAME, MCP_BRAND_LOGO_URL, MCP_BRAND_PRIMARY_COLOR, MCP_BRAND_ACCENT_COLOR, MCP_BRAND_BG, MCP_BRAND_TEXT) — no rebuild needed.

Installation

npm install @wyre-ai/ironscales-mcp

Configuration

Set the following environment variables:

Variable	Required	Description
`IRONSCALES_API_KEY`	Yes	Your Ironscales API key
`IRONSCALES_COMPANY_ID`	Yes	Your Ironscales company ID
`MCP_TRANSPORT`	No	Transport mode: stdio (default) or http

Usage

Running with Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json:

"mcpServers": { "ironscales-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@wyre-ai/ironscales-mcp"], "env": { "IRONSCALES_API_KEY": "your-ironscales-api-key" "IRONSCALES_COMPANY_ID": "your-ironscales-company-id" } } } }

Running with Claude Code (CLI)
