THREAT HUNTING WITH CLAUDE CODE AND MCP

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

This guide demonstrates how to use Claude Code with Model Context Protocol servers to compress days of manual threat hunting into hours by connecting AI agents directly to security data lakes for hypothesis-driven investigations. The workflow involves stakeholder alignment on three to five priority threats from threat models, then deploying reusable "Skills" that teach agents hunting methodologies, such as the pivot loop pattern for correlating indicators across time, identity, network, and host dimensions. Hunt outputs include structured findings with confidence assessments and detection coverage gaps that translate directly into detection-as-code rules.
