Built an MCP bridge that lets AI control Cheat Engine
Basically the AI (Claude/Cursor/Copilot etc) can now read memory, follow pointer chains, set hardware breakpoints, disassemble functions, auto-detect structure fields - all the stuff you'd normally do manually.
What used to take me days now takes like 10 minutes of just... asking questions:
- "scan for 15000, now it changed to 15100"
"what writes to that address?"
"disassemble that function"
And the AI just does it
It's read-only for now (no memory writes), uses hardware debug registers only (DR0-DR3), supports DBVM for invisible tracing.
Threw it on git hub if anyone wants to mess with it: git hub[dot]com/miscusi-peek/cheatengine-mcp-bridge
The stack is pretty simple: Lua bridge running in CE, Python MCP server, communication over named pipes. Latency is under 2ms per command.
Very cool, kinda worried about LLMs refusing to do anything w/ hacking tho
