MCP server for Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration (Avanan) email security.

Overview

AI-generated overview

MCP server for Check Point Harmony Email & Collaboration (Avanan) that lets an assistant retrieve and investigate email security events, act on threats, and run

What you can do
Retrieve and investigate security events, with an interactive read-only event card in MCP Apps hosts such as Claude Desktop and web. Take action on threats, such as quarantine and release. Manage email exceptions and allowlists. Search across email security data. Support multi-tenant MSP operations across an email security environment.
When to use it
Use it when you want an AI assistant to work inside a Check Point Avanan / Harmony Email & Collaboration tenant: triaging security events, investigating threats, searching email security data, or managing exceptions and allowlists, including across multiple tenants for MSP work.
Requirements
Runs as a local process, installed from npm or the container image. Needs Avanan / Harmony Email OAuth2 credentials: a client ID and client secret, supplied by environment variable or, in gateway mode, per-request headers. An optional region setting (us, eu, au, in) is auto-detected from the token when omitted. HTTP mode additionally requires a service-to-service HMAC secret.
Before you install
The client secret is a credential; keep it out of committed files. The server can take action on threats and change exceptions and allowlists, so assistant actions can alter email security state. In HTTP gateway mode, credentials arrive on each request as headers and are not read from the environment. Development mode without the HMAC secret disables request authentication and should stay local only.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Avanan in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

Avanan (Check Point) MCP Server

[License] [Node.js]

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Check Point Avanan (Harmony Email & Collaboration). Enables AI assistants to manage security events, investigate threats, and handle multi-tenant MSP operations across your email security environment.

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects Claude (or any MCP-compatible AI) to your Check Point Avanan environment.

Part of the MSP Claude Plugins ecosystem — a growing suite of AI integrations for the MSP stack. Built by MSPs, for MSPs.

Features

  • Interactive Security Event Card (MCP Apps): hec_get_event renders as a read-only interactive card in MCP Apps hosts (Claude Desktop/web) showing severity, state, platform, and remediation status; neutral by default, brandable via window.__BRAND__ injection or MCP_BRAND_* env vars; plain-JSON behavior is unchanged in other hosts

Installation

bash
npm install @wyre-ai/avanan-mcp

Configuration

Copy .env.example and set the variables below. Leave CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET empty in that file.

VariableRequiredDescription
CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_IDFor stdio and AUTH_MODE=envCheckpoint/Avanan OAuth2 client ID
CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRETFor stdio and AUTH_MODE=envCheckpoint/Avanan OAuth2 client secret
CHECKPOINT_REGIONNoAPI region (us, eu, au, in). Auto-detected from the JWT when omitted.
MCP_TRANSPORTNostdio (default) or http
AUTH_MODENogateway (Docker image and Compose default) or env. Gateway mode requires X-Checkpoint-Client-Id and X-Checkpoint-Client-Secret on each /mcp request and never falls back to CHECKPOINT_*. env uses those variables only after S2S auth succeeds.
CONDUIT_S2S_SECRETYes for HTTPService-to-service HMAC secret. The HTTP server logs an error and exits non-zero when this is empty or a known placeholder (changeme, replace-with-a-real-secret, your-s2s-secret, and the other public example values). MCP_ALLOW_INSECURE_DEV=1 does not accept a placeholder. Compose will not start without it. Never commit a real value. The value is never logged. Generate one with openssl rand -hex 32.
MCP_ALLOW_INSECURE_DEVNoSet to exactly 1 only for local development to start HTTP without CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET. The process logs a warning, does not enforce X-Gateway-S2S, and binds 127.0.0.1 only. A non-loopback MCP_HTTP_HOST (including 0.0.0.0) is overridden and the override is logged.
MCP_HTTP_HOSTNoBind address when MCP_TRANSPORT=http. Defaults to 127.0.0.1. A configured secret honors this value. The container image sets 0.0.0.0.
MCP_HTTP_PORTNoHTTP port. Defaults to 8080.

/health stays unauthenticated. The stdio transport does not use CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET.

HTTP authentication

With MCP_TRANSPORT=http and a real CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET, every /mcp request must include X-Gateway-S2S. The header value is t=<unix seconds>,v1=<hex>, where the hex is HMAC-SHA256 of the literal string t=<unix seconds> keyed with CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET (64 lowercase hex characters). The timestamp must be within 300 seconds of the server clock. A missing or invalid header returns HTTP 401 before vendor credentials are read.

bash
TS=$(date +%s)SIG=$(printf 't=%s' "$TS" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "$CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET" -hex | awk '{print $NF}')curl -sS http://127.0.0.1:8080/mcp \  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \  -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \  -H "X-Gateway-S2S: t=${TS},v1=${SIG}" \  -H 'X-Checkpoint-Client-Id: your-client-id' \  -H 'X-Checkpoint-Client-Secret: your-client-secret' \  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}'

In AUTH_MODE=gateway (the image and Compose default), /mcp also requires X-Checkpoint-Client-Id and X-Checkpoint-Client-Secret. Those headers are the only credential source for that request. A request missing either one returns 401 and does not fall back to CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID / CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET in the process environment.

Single-tenant HTTP (AUTH_MODE=env) still requires a valid X-Gateway-S2S header, then uses CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID and CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET when the request does not carry those headers.

Usage

Running with Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "avanan-mcp": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["@wyre-ai/avanan-mcp"],      "env": {        "CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID": "your-checkpoint-client-id"        "CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-checkpoint-client-secret"      }    }  }}

Running with Claude Code (CLI)

bash
claude mcp add avanan-mcp \  -e CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID=your-value \  -e CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET=your-value \  -- npx -y @wyre-ai/avanan-mcp

Docker

The image listens on 0.0.0.0 inside the container (MCP_HTTP_HOST) and defaults to AUTH_MODE=gateway. Publish the port on loopback and pass a real S2S secret. In gateway mode, Checkpoint credentials arrive on each request as headers; they are not read from the environment.

bash
docker build -t avanan-mcp .docker run \  -e CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET=your-s2s-secret \  -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \  avanan-mcp

Compose refuses to start when CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET is unset, sets AUTH_MODE=gateway, does not inject CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID or CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET, and publishes 127.0.0.1:8080:8080:

bash
CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET=your-s2s-secret docker compose up

Single-tenant HTTP (AUTH_MODE=env) still requires the S2S secret, then uses CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID and CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET. Keep that off the gateway Compose service:

bash
docker run \  -e CONDUIT_S2S_SECRET=your-s2s-secret \  -e AUTH_MODE=env \  -e CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_ID=your-value \  -e CHECKPOINT_CLIENT_SECRET=your-value \  -e CHECKPOINT_REGION=us \  -p 127.0.0.1:8080:8080 \  avanan-mcp

Local HTTP without a secret is development-only. It binds 127.0.0.1 even when MCP_HTTP_HOST is 0.0.0.0 or localhost, and logs a warning. A known placeholder secret still refuses to start:

bash
MCP_TRANSPORT=http MCP_ALLOW_INSECURE_DEV=1 npm start
