    How to connect

    How to connect mcp to Claude

    The server address to paste into Claude settings:

    https://mcp.secdim.com/mcp

    1. Open Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app).
    2. Go to Settings → Connectors.
    3. Click Add custom connector.
    4. Paste the server address copied below into Remote MCP server URL and click Add.
    5. In a chat, click + → Connectors and switch the new connector on.

    Custom connectors are available on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise an organization Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors.

    Authorization

    After you click Add, a sign-in window for the service opens. Sign in with your own account and approve access. Claude never sees your password.

    How to connect mcp to ChatGPT

    The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:

    https://mcp.secdim.com/mcp

    1. Open ChatGPT in a browser (chatgpt.com). A Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu plan is required.
    2. Turn on developer mode once: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode.
    3. Open Settings → Connectors and click Create.
    4. Fill in the form: Name (anything), Description (one line about what the service does), MCP server URL (copy it below).
    5. Under Authentication choose OAuth if the service requires sign-in, otherwise None. Click Create.
    6. In a new chat open + → Apps/Connectors and enable the connector.

    OpenAI has renamed this section before (Connectors → Apps/Plugins). If the label differs, search settings for "developer mode". On Business/Enterprise workspaces an admin must allow custom connectors first.

    Authorization

    On first use ChatGPT opens the service's sign-in window. Sign in and approve access.

    How to connect mcp to Cursor

    The server address to paste into Cursor settings:

    https://mcp.secdim.com/mcp

    Fastest: click Open in Cursor below and confirm the prompt.

    Manually:

    1. In Cursor open Settings → Cursor Settings → MCP and click Add new global MCP server.
    2. Paste the JSON copied below into ~/.cursor/mcp.json (per project: .cursor/mcp.json in the repo root).
    3. Save the file. The server appears in the MCP list; authorize it there if asked.

    Authorization

    If the service needs sign-in, an authorize button appears next to the server in the MCP list.

    get_secdim_profile Fetch a SecDim player's profile: scores, completed challenges, skills, security interests and an experience estimate. Use this tool to understand a player's demonstrated secure coding ability before building a learning pathway. The profile includes actual challenge completion data (by difficulty level) and security topics the player has practised — weight this demonstrated performance over a user's self-reported level when deciding what difficulty and topics to recommend. The 'guidance' field provides a ready-to-use summary of what difficulty and topics to target next, and whether the player is new, intermediate or experienced. Args: secdim_username: The player's SecDim username (e.g. "alice") Returns: Dictionary with scores, challenges_solved breakdown, skills (languages and technologies), completed_challenges list, security_interests, experience_estimate and guidance. If the user doesn't exist or an error occurs, returns an error dict.
    search_play_challenges Return a list of hands-on SecDim Play secure coding challenges (labs) related to a detected or suspected vulnerability. SecDim Play challenges are scored, hands-on labs: find and fix a real vulnerability in running code to earn points and badges. Use this tool to: - Find hands-on SecDim Play labs for specific vulnerabilities like XSS, SQL Injection, etc. - Explore OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities and related labs - Provide additional resources and guides to help developers improve their secure coding skills For structured tutorial content (text, video, and lab-based courses) on the same vulnerability, use search_learn_courses (SecDim Learn) instead or in addition. Args: search: Search term for the vulnerability (e.g., 'xss', 'sql-injection', 'injection') cwe: Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) ID to filter by owasp: OWASP category to filter by (e.g., 'a03:2021') technology: Technology or framework to filter by (e.g., 'react', 'django') language: Programming language to filter by (e.g., 'javascript', 'python') difficulty: Difficulty level to filter by (e.g., 'trivial', 'easy', 'medium', 'hard') type: Challenge format to filter by (e.g., 'battle', 'exploitation', 'incident-response') mitre: MITRE ATT&CK ID to filter by (e.g., 'T1102.003') SecDim Play challenges (labs) each simulate a real vulnerability. They are scored according to the following difficulty levels: - Trivial: Easy to find and path vulnerabilities. It can be completed in 5-10 minutes. 1-15 points. - Easy: Known vulnerabilities. It can be completed in 10-30 minutes. 16-35 points. - Medium: Known vulnerabilities but require defence-in-depth patch. It can be completed in 20-30 minutes. 36-70 points. - Hard: Hard to find or patch vulnerabilities. It can be completed in 30-60 minutes. 71-100 points. - Battle: SecDim Flagship attack and defence challenge that
    search Search for SecDim Play secure coding labs (hands-on, scored challenges). This tool searches across SecDim Play's hands-on secure coding labs based on the search query. The backend API handles parsing of vulnerability names, CWE IDs, and OWASP IDs. Language can be specified using the format "lang:javascript". Args: query: Search query that may include: - Vulnerability names (e.g., "XSS", "SQL injection") - CWE IDs (e.g., "79") - OWASP IDs (e.g., "A03:2021") Examples: - "XSS lang:javascript" - searches for XSS labs in JavaScript - "SQL injection lang:Python" - searches for SQL injection labs in Python - "79" - searches for labs related to CWE-79 Returns: Dictionary with search results containing: - results: List of matching SecDim Play labs with id, title, snippet, and metadata
    fetch Fetch detailed content for a specific SecDim Play lab (hands-on, scored challenge). Args: id: Lab ID in format "lab:slug" (e.g., "lab:xss-dom") Returns: Dictionary containing: - id: The lab ID - title: Lab title - content: Detailed content in markdown format - metadata: Additional lab information
    search_learn_courses Search SecDim Learn courses. SecDim Learn provides tutorial-based courses (mixing video, text and hands-on lab topics) covering secure coding, secure design, vibe coding security, devsecops, and cloud security. Many courses are complementary or prerequisite to hands-on, scored SecDim Play challenges/labs. Use this tool to: - Browse the SecDim Learn course catalogue - Find courses related to a topic, language, or technology (e.g. "OWASP Top 10", "fuzzing", "Python") Args: search: Optional search term to filter courses by title, description, or tags. If omitted, returns the full course catalogue. Returns: Dictionary with a "courses" list. Each course includes its title, description, image, slug, tags, numeric "level" (1=beginner, 2=intermediate, 3=advanced) and a "difficulty" label. Use get_learn_course with a course's slug to view its syllabus of topics.
    get_learn_course Get a SecDim Learn course's details, including its syllabus of topics. Args: course_slug: The course's slug, as returned by search_learn_courses (e.g. "owasp-top-10") Returns: Dictionary with the course's title, description, image, slug, "difficulty" label and a "topics" list. Each topic includes its title, description, category, slug, kind (e.g. text/video/lab), level, subscription tier, duration and completion status. Use get_learn_topic with the course slug and a topic's slug to view its content.
    get_learn_topic Get a SecDim Learn topic's content. Args: course_slug: The course's slug, as returned by search_learn_courses (e.g. "owasp-top-10") topic_slug: The topic's slug, as returned by get_learn_course (e.g. "introduction-secure-coding") Returns: Dictionary with the topic's title, description, category, kind, level, subscription tier, duration, completion status and "file_content" (the topic's content in AsciiDoc format). If the topic requires a SecDim Learn subscription that the current account does not have, an "error" explaining this is returned instead.
