Volatility MCP server

This is a small helper that connects your AI assistant to Volatility 3, a well known tool for looking inside a computer's memory. Once it is set up, you can ask plain questions about a memory image you already have, and your AI will run the analysis for you. It is handy for people doing security work, incident response, or anyone learning memory forensics.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI a question about a memory image, like which processes were running. The AI sends that request to this MCP server, which is a small program running on your machine. The server talks to Volatility 3, which does the actual digging into the memory file. Volatility returns its findings, and the server passes them back to your AI. Your AI then shows you the result in the chat, in plain language.

What you can do with it

• List the processes that were running in a memory image
• Show network connections found in memory, including external ones
• Ask follow up questions about a process or connection in plain words
• Build a picture of what was happening on the machine at capture time
• Use natural language instead of memorising Volatility commands

Try asking your AI

• “Show me the list of processes in the memory image”
• “Show me all the external connections made”
• “Which processes had network connections open”
• “Give me a summary of what was running on this machine”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in your chat, usually as a list or a short summary. For example, a table of process names and IDs, or a list of network connections with addresses and ports. Your AI can then explain what it sees or answer follow up questions about those results.

Before you start

Who it's for

Security analysts, incident responders, and students learning memory forensics who want to explore memory images with plain questions instead of long command lines.
