SecurityScan MCP

Give your AI agent the ability to secure its own environment — one MCP config, eight tools.

Audit MCP configs for poisoning, redact secrets/PII before they leave for an LLM, vet untrusted skills, monitor dependency health, and actively scan your network. All from a single securitystack entry in your agent's MCP config.

This is the client: the unified MCP server an AI agent (Claude CLI/Desktop, or any MCP-aware agent) installs to call the SecurityScan hosted services. The backend services themselves are hosted — you don't run them. You configure API keys and your agent gets eight tools — six security plus two sales.

Why

An AI agent has four ways to get compromised. SecurityScan covers all four:

1. What it INSTALLS   → poisoned skills / MCP configs     → scan_skill + audit_mcp_server_config
2. What it DEPENDS ON → a dependency goes down/rogue        → check_dependencies
3. Where it's EXPOSED → open ports, default creds           → network_scan (with AI agent loop)
4. What it SENDS OUT  → secrets/PII leak into the LLM       → scan_secrets

Two of these — audit_mcp_server_config and scan_secrets — run offline, in-process, with no API key. They work the moment you install the server. The other four call hosted services (configure their keys to enable them; each is skipped gracefully if unset).

Install

1. Install the server

pip install securityscan-mcp

That's it — the package is on PyPI.

2. Add it to your agent

For Claude Desktop / CLI (claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.claude.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "securityscan": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "stack.unified_mcp_server"],
      "env": {
        "ACTIVESCANNER_API_KEY": "ask_live_...",
        "DEPSCAN_API_KEY": "dsk_live_...",
        "SECURITYSCAN_API_KEY": "ss_live_...",
        "SECRETSCAN_API_KEY": "ssc_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

The three offline tools (audit_mcp_server_config, scan_secrets, securitystack_pricing) need no key and work immediately. The four hosted-service tools activate when you set their key; set only what you use.

curl -X POST https://scan.apisecurityscan.net/v1/register -d '{}'

See docs/QUICKSTART.md for the 2-minute setup.

3. Verify

claude mcp list
# securitystack ... Connected

Then ask your agent: "Audit my MCP config for security risks" or "Scan this prompt for secrets before I send it: ..."
