Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the CrowdSec MCP Server?
Connect your CrowdSec security engine to any AI agent to take full control of your threat intelligence and network defense through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Local Decisions — Query your Local API (LAPI) for active blocks or decisions on specific IPs, ranges, or scopes to understand current local threats.
- Decision Streaming — Poll for real-time updates on new and deleted decisions from your local database to keep your security context synchronized.
- Global CTI Reputation — Fetch global IP reputation data, behaviors, and classifications from the CrowdSec Community Threat Intelligence (CTI) network.
- Security Auditing — Inspect metadata and classifications for suspicious actors directly from your command interface or code editor.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your CrowdSec LAPI URL, LAPI Key, and CTI Key
- Start managing your security posture from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more manual log diving or complex CLI commands to check if an IP is malicious. Your AI acts as a dedicated security analyst.
Who is this for?
- Security Engineers — instantly retrieve local decision statuses and global reputation metrics without leaving the terminal
- DevOps Teams — monitor security streams and verify IP behaviors during incident response directly from the IDE
- System Administrators — automate the auditing of blocked ranges and suspicious network activity through natural language

Why OpenAI Agents SDK?
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 3 tools from CrowdSec through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries CrowdSec, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.

CrowdSec in OpenAI Agents SDK
CrowdSec and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect CrowdSec to OpenAI Agents SDK through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.
Raw MCP | Vinkius | |
|---|---|---|
| Server catalog | Find and host yourself | 4,000+ managed |
| Infrastructure | Self-hosted | Sandboxed V8 isolates |
| Credential handling | Plaintext in config | Vault + runtime injection |
| Data loss prevention | None | Configurable DLP policies |
| Kill switch | None | Global instant shutdown |
| Financial circuit breakers | None | Per-server limits + alerts |
| Audit trail | None | Ed25519 signed logs |
| SIEM log streaming | None | Splunk, Datadog, Webhook |
| Honeytokens | None | Canary alerts on leak |
| Custom domains | Not applicable | DNS challenge verified |
| GDPR compliance | Manual effort | Automated purge + export |
Why teams choose Vinkius for CrowdSec in OpenAI Agents SDK
The CrowdSec MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 3 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
CrowdSec for OpenAI Agents SDK
Every tool call from OpenAI Agents SDK to the CrowdSec MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I check if a specific IP address is currently blocked in my local CrowdSec instance?
Yes! Use the get_decisions tool providing the IP address. Your agent will query your Local API and return any active decisions, including the reason and duration of the block.
How do I see the latest security threats detected by my server in real-time?
You can use the get_decisions_stream tool. This allows your agent to poll for new and deleted decisions, giving you a clear view of recent security activity on your infrastructure.
Can I verify an IP's global reputation even if it hasn't attacked my server yet?
Absolutely. The get_cti_smoke tool queries the global CrowdSec CTI network. It provides background information, attack behaviors, and risk scores for any IP based on community data.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
