Manage Koru Shield DNS filtering: profiles, rules, categories, schedules, and logs.
Manage your Koru Shield DNS protection through AI assistants. Block domains, check policies, review blocked queries, manage schedules, and more, all through natural language.
Exposes your Koru Shield account as Model Context Protocol tools:
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
list_profiles / get_profile | List and inspect DNS protection profiles |
create_rule / list_rules / delete_rule | Block or allow domains per profile |
list_filter_categories / set_filter_category | Toggle categories (adult, gambling, social media...) |
simulate_policy | Check if a domain would be blocked right now |
get_logs | Recent DNS queries: allowed, blocked, when |
analytics_summary | Totals, blocked percentage, encrypted queries |
list_schedules / create_schedule / delete_schedule | Time windows (bedtime, homework hours) |
list_devices | Devices enrolled per profile |
get_entitlements | Plan, limits, current usage |
get_referral_code | Your referral link |
Example prompts once connected:
Sign in at https://my.korushield.com, go to API keys, and create one. Copy the key.
No install needed. Run directly with npx:
npx -y korushield-mcp-server
Set your key as an environment variable:
export KORU_SHIELD_API_KEY="your-key-here"
Optional: KORU_SHIELD_API_URL overrides the API base URL (default https://my.korushield.com/api).
Claude Code
claude mcp add koru-shield -- npx -y korushield-mcp-server
(Claude Code passes environment through, so export KORU_SHIELD_API_KEY first. Or use the HTTP transport below with a header.)
Cursor / VS Code
Add to your MCP config (~/.cursor/mcp.json or VS Code mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"koru-shield": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "korushield-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"KORU_SHIELD_API_KEY": "your-key-here"
}
}
}
}
Claude Desktop
Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"koru-shield": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "korushield-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"KORU_SHIELD_API_KEY": "your-key-here"
}
}
}
}
For clients that connect over HTTP (agents, hosted setups):
MCP_TRANSPORT=http PORT=3000 KORU_SHIELD_API_KEY="your-key-here" npx -y korushield-mcp-server
Or pass the key per-request instead of the env var:
POST https://your-host/mcp
Authorization: Bearer <koru-shield-api-key>
Health check: GET /healthz.
npm install
npm run build
npm start
Test with the MCP Inspector:
KORU_SHIELD_API_KEY="your-key-here" npm run inspector

Source-derived launch command. Check the maintainer’s required arguments and credentials before running:
npx -y korushield-mcp-serverMerge this template into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json. Keep existing servers. Add any arguments, credentials, and permissions required by the maintainer; this template has not been install-tested.
