purge_rapid7_data
Permanently deletes both the vulnerability database and the export tracking database from disk. Use when you're done with analysis or before handing off a machine.
How to use it
Project documentation lists purge_rapid7_data for the Rapid7 Bulk Export MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.

Polls the Rapid7 API once for the current status of an export job. Use after startrapid7export to know when data is ready.
Downloads a completed export's Parquet files and loads them into the local DuckDB database. This is where data becomes queryable.
Returns column names and data types for all loaded tables. Use this to understand what fields are available before writing queries.
Returns summary statistics — row counts, severity distributions, CVSS score ranges, exploit counts, and cloud provider breakdowns.
Shows recent export history with IDs, dates, statuses, and row counts. Useful for finding a previous export to reload.
Loads existing Parquet files directly from disk (must be within ~/.rapid7mcp/imports/). Useful if you already have exported files and want to skip the API call.
Executes SQL against the loaded data. The connection is locked down after loading — filesystem reads, writes, and network access are all blocked at the DuckDB engine level.
Kicks off a new export job on Rapid7's servers. Returns immediately with an export ID. Supports three export types: vulnerability, policy, and remediation.
