Security Scanner Ai Mcp
Let your coding agent run dependency, header, and secret scans from the repo without switching to separate security CLIs.
Overview
Security Scanner AI MCP is an MCP server for the Ship phase that scans dependencies, checks security headers, and hunts secrets through your agent.
What is this MCP server?
- Scan project dependencies for known vulnerability signals via MCP tools
- Check HTTP/security headers on configured targets from the agent session
- Scan repositories and paths for committed secrets and credential patterns
- Stdio MCP transport with PyPI package security-scanner-ai-mcp v1.0.8
- 3 documented capability areas: scan dependencies, check headers, scan secrets
- Package version 1.0.8 on PyPI with stdio transport
- Registry identifier security-scanner-ai-mcp
What problem does it solve?
You are about to ship but lack time to run dependency, header, and secret checks manually across every prompt-driven coding session.
Who is it for?
Indie builders who want agent-driven security smoke tests on repos they control, right before launch or after a big dependency bump.
Skip if: Teams needing certified pentests, compliance attestations, or enterprise GRC workflows without human triage.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent returns structured scan outputs in-thread so you can fix CVEs, headers, and leaks before deploy.
- Agent-readable results from dependency scan runs
- Security header check output for configured URLs or services
- Secret scan findings scoped to paths you specify
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Security scanning belongs on the Ship shelf because solo builders need automated checks before release and during hardening—not only after an incident. The security subphase is where dependency CVEs, misconfigured headers, and leaked secrets are caught before production traffic.
How it compares
MCP security tooling for agent workflows, not a standalone SAST dashboard or managed bug-bounty program.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Security Scanner AI MCP for?
Solo builders and small teams using AI coding agents who want dependency, header, and secret checks callable from Claude Code, Cursor, or similar without leaving the chat.
When should I use Security Scanner AI MCP?
Use it during the Ship phase before releases, after adding packages, or when you suspect credentials or weak headers in a service you are hardening.
How do I add Security Scanner AI MCP to my agent?
Install the PyPI package security-scanner-ai-mcp, add a stdio MCP server entry pointing at that package per your client’s MCP config, then restart the agent and call the scan tools from prompts.
