Monitoring MCP Traffic Using eBPF: Part 1

 In the first installment of his series, Alex Ilgayev introduces MCPSpy, an open-source tool designed to monitor Model Context Protocol (MCP) traffic. MCP is an emerging standard that enables AI applications to communicate with external tools and data sources. Ilgayev discusses the motivations behind developing MCPSpy, the choice of eBPF for monitoring, and the tool's initial implementation. He also outlines the limitations of the current version and hints at future developments, such as inspecting encrypted HTTPS-based MCP communications over TLS. The article emphasizes the importance of visibility in securing AI-driven tools and sets the stage for deeper exploration in subsequent parts of the series.
