What you can do with this MCP connector
Your AI agent connects to Kolide to give you full visibility into your company's fleet security and device health. You'll use these tools to audit managed devices, track security vulnerabilities, and check user compliance across the whole fleet.
To start, you can use get_kolide_fleet_stats to get a summary of the entire device fleet, including the total count, the current online status, and the number of active security issues.
Need to dive deeper? You can call list_kolide_devices to get a complete list of every device managed by the system, giving you specific device IDs for deeper checks. Once you have an ID, get_device_details pulls the full profile and status for that single device. You can also use get_check_details to retrieve the specific details for a single security check.
If you're tracking problems, list_kolide_issues gathers a list of all identified security issues across the whole fleet, summarizing the type and count of vulnerabilities. For specific problems, you can get detailed info about a particular security issue using get_issue_details.
When you need to know who owns what or if people are compliant, list_kolide_people lists all users managed in the platform, and you can use get_person_details to pull specific details about a user, including their compliance status.
Want to see what's going on with the whole operation? list_kolide_checks lists every defined security check the system uses to audit the fleet. For a history of who did what, list_kolide_audit_logs provides a chronological record of all administrative and security events that happened to the fleet. You can also find out which users are associated with which devices by using get_person_details and get_device_details together.
How Kolide MCP Works
- 1 First, your AI client uses a prompt (e.g., 'Show me all non-compliant devices').
- 2 Kolide receives the prompt, determines the necessary tools (like
list_kolide_devicesandget_issue_details), and executes them. - 3 Kolide sends the raw, combined data back to your AI client, which formats it into a natural language summary for you.
The bottom line is you don't write code; you talk to your agent, and the agent handles all the data retrieval and assembly.
Who Is Kolide MCP For?
The security operations engineer who is tired of clicking through dashboards at 2 am. It's for compliance officers and IT managers who need a single, conversational view of device health across hundreds of endpoints. If you manage a fleet, you need this.
Uses list_kolide_issues and get_issue_details to quickly prioritize and investigate the most critical vulnerabilities across the entire fleet.
Runs get_kolide_fleet_stats and list_kolide_devices to get a quick, high-level health check and identify which devices need immediate attention.
Queries list_kolide_people and get_person_details to verify user ownership and confirm that all users meet required organizational compliance standards.
What Changes When You Connect
- See the full scope of your fleet with
list_kolide_devices. You get a simple list of every device ID, making it easy to start targeting specific machines for deeper checks. - Determine overall compliance health using
get_kolide_fleet_stats. Instead of reading raw numbers, you get a single summary of total devices, online status, and active issues. - Pinpoint root causes by using
get_issue_details. You don't just know a device has a problem; you know exactly why and how to fix it. - Track compliance history with
list_kolide_audit_logs. You get an immutable, chronological record of every admin change, which is essential for compliance reporting. - Verify user accountability with
list_kolide_peopleandget_person_details. You confirm which user owns which device and if that user is compliant, all in one place. - Know your security guardrails by running
list_kolide_checks. This shows you exactly what criteria the system uses to judge device health, giving you full transparency.
Real-World Use Cases
Identifying a Bad Batch of Devices
The IT manager notices a spike in alerts. They ask their agent: 'What's wrong with the last 50 devices enrolled?' The agent runs list_kolide_devices to get the IDs, then runs get_kolide_fleet_stats to gauge the severity, and finally pulls list_kolide_issues to find the common failure point. They get a summary of the top three issues.
Auditing User Compliance Post-Transfer
The HR department transferred a user, John Doe. The compliance officer needs to confirm John's device is configured correctly. They ask their agent to run get_person_details for John Doe and cross-reference it with get_device_details for the assigned laptop. The agent reports on the compliance gaps immediately.
Investigating a Major Security Incident
A critical vulnerability is reported. The security engineer asks: 'What are the top 5 vulnerabilities and who owns them?' The agent runs list_kolide_issues, identifies the top 5, and then uses get_person_details to identify the affected users, creating an immediate action list.
Preparing for a Quarterly Audit
The compliance officer needs to prove that no admin changes were made without logging. They ask the agent to run list_kolide_audit_logs. The agent returns a comprehensive, filtered log of all administrative actions, which they can use for the final report.
The Tradeoffs
Manually checking device status
Opening the device dashboard, filtering by status, then opening the issue dashboard, filtering by date, and manually cross-referencing the IDs to build a list.
→
Instead, ask your agent to run get_kolide_fleet_stats first. Then, ask the agent to cross-reference the output with list_kolide_issues to get a single, consolidated report.
Ignoring user ownership
Just seeing a list of devices (list_kolide_devices) and assuming the owner is compliant. This misses key accountability data.
→
Always check ownership status. Use list_kolide_people to identify the user, and then run get_person_details to confirm their individual compliance state.
Treating the system as a single API call
Trying to pass 50 parameters into one function call, which will fail or time out because the data is too complex for one request.
→
Break the request down. First, use list_kolide_devices to get the IDs, then iterate by asking the agent to run get_device_details for small batches of IDs.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this if you need a single, conversational interface to aggregate data from multiple security domains. You need to answer questions like 'Which users with outdated OS are on devices owned by the Sales team?' If your job requires correlating data from devices, people, and issues, this is it.
Don't use this if your only goal is to list IDs. Use list_kolide_devices for that. Also, if you only need to check the logs for a single action, list_kolide_audit_logs is sufficient. This server is for complex, multi-step analysis where the AI agent ties the pieces together.

Available Capabilities
Checking device compliance shouldn't take three different dashboards.
Right now, to check compliance, you open the device inventory dashboard. You pull a list of IDs. Then you switch tabs to the issue tracker and filter by date. You copy the IDs into a spreadsheet and manually cross-reference them with the user directory to see who owns what. It’s slow, and you’re always worried you missed a critical filter.
With Kolide, you just ask your agent: 'Show me all non-compliant devices owned by the engineering team.' The agent runs the necessary tools, pulls the data, and gives you a clean, final list. You get the answer in one conversation, not three different browser tabs.
Kolide MCP Server: Audit device security and people ownership
Manual processes require logging into the device portal, then the user management portal, and then the audit log viewer. You have to check three different interfaces just to get a complete picture of a single device's life cycle.
Kolide unifies that view. You ask about a device, and the agent instantly checks its status, its owner's compliance, and the history of any changes, all without you ever leaving the chat window.
