Why Use Pydantic AI with the Cortex XSIAM MCP Server
Pydantic AI provides unique advantages when paired with Cortex XSIAM through the Model Context Protocol.
Full type safety: every MCP tool response is validated against Pydantic models, catching data inconsistencies before they reach your application
Model-agnostic architecture. switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini without changing your Cortex XSIAM integration code
Structured output guarantee: Pydantic AI ensures tool results conform to defined schemas, eliminating runtime type errors
Dependency injection system cleanly separates your Cortex XSIAM connection logic from agent behavior for testable, maintainable code
Cortex XSIAM + Pydantic AI Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Pydantic AI combined with the Cortex XSIAM MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Type-safe data pipelines: query Cortex XSIAM with guaranteed response schemas, feeding validated data into downstream processing
API orchestration: chain multiple Cortex XSIAM tool calls with Pydantic validation at each step to ensure data integrity end-to-end
Production monitoring: build validated alert agents that query Cortex XSIAM and output structured, schema-compliant notifications
Testing and QA: use Pydantic AI's dependency injection to mock Cortex XSIAM responses and write comprehensive agent tests
Cortex XSIAM MCP Tools for Pydantic AI (9)
These 9 tools become available when you connect Cortex XSIAM to Pydantic AI via MCP:
execute_playbook
g., enrich IOCs, block IP, reset password). Requires playbook name and optional input arguments. Use this to speed up response times and ensure consistent handling of incidents. Execute an automated incident response playbook in Cortex XSIAM
get_alerts
Use this to review detection rules firing or analyze threat patterns. List security alerts detected by Cortex XSIAM
get_endpoints
Use this to audit endpoint coverage, identify disconnected hosts, or target remediation actions. List managed endpoints (hosts/devices) in Cortex XSIAM
get_incident_details
Requires the incident ID. Use this for deep investigation or context before taking action. Get detailed information about a specific security incident
get_incidents
Use this to monitor SOC queue, identify high-severity incidents, or track analyst workload. Supports sorting and limiting results. List security incidents in Cortex XSIAM
get_indicators
Use this to review threat intelligence or check if specific artifacts are known malicious. List indicators of compromise (IOCs) tracked in Cortex XSIAM
isolate_endpoint
Requires the endpoint ID. Use this immediately upon confirming a severe compromise to prevent lateral movement. Isolate a compromised endpoint from the network
run_xql_query
XQL allows searching logs, endpoints, network data, and more. Requires a valid XQL query string. Returns the results of the query. Use this for custom threat hunting, compliance reporting, or data analysis. Execute an XQL (Cortex Query Language) query for advanced threat hunting
scan_endpoint
Supports "quick" or "deep" scan types. Requires the endpoint ID. Use this to verify if a host is infected or after cleaning a threat. Trigger a malware scan on a specific endpoint
