Drost Community

Drost Community Edition is an open-source, container-native MCP security toolkit for agent-driven and operator-driven security work.

Drost Community Edition is the public release of Drost-v1, containing a Kali-based Docker image with an MCP server and 159 offensive-security tools. It runs over stdio and publishes no network service, working with MCP clients like Tess that launch local commands. The toolkit provides network, OSINT, web, credential, exploitation, binary analysis, forensics, cloud, and wireless tools, plus GNU grep, jq, and native Python and Bash execution. It features persistent isolated engagements, direct stdio transport, and multi-architecture builds for linux/amd64 and linux/arm64. It is designed for security operators and agent runtimes that support local stdio Model Context Protocol servers.
