How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →

Supply Chain Security100
  • No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
  • No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
  • No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
  • 0 of 5 dependencies flagged as unhealthy. View diagnostics → Pass

  • Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
  • Actively maintained (last published 30 days ago).Pass
  • Publishes a security disclosure policy (SECURITY.md).Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability69
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
  • Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 384 tokens (~384/item across 1 items; 1 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
  • Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
  • No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
  • Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 1 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 1 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
  • Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
Install

How do I install the AI AppSec MCP server?

AI AppSec runs locally as an npm package, launched with npx -y ai-appsec. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 1 exposed · ~384 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
scan_ai_security ~384

Audit AI applications and agents for security risks before commit, PR, merge, or deployment. Produces deterministic findings with explicit coverage, Security Concern Families, Scan Receipts, and Evidence Envelopes. USE when a developer asks to: - "check this for security issues" - "audit this task before I push" - "review this change for security problems" - "scan this AI agent" or "scan this AI app" - "check my LLM application" - "security review this PR" - "is this safe to merge" - "check this before deployment" - "audit this code for vulnerabilities" - "run a security scan" - "check for security risks before commit" - "review this implementation before pushing" Also use for: - reviewing AI/LLM/agent source code for security - validating AI code before merge - checking an agent before deployment - reviewing RAG or model integration security - looking for unsafe AI source-code patterns - checking AI-output-to-dangerous-action flows - checking AI source-code secrets/security controls DO NOT use for: - actual LLM response/content verification (use verify_llm_content) - tenant/RLS/cross-customer isolation (use scan_tenant_isolation) - generic compliance questionnaires or compliance certification - generic non-AI source scanning where no AI check applies This tool performs static analysis only. It does NOT execute target code, make network requests, or emit telemetry. BLOCK findings are advisory — deployment enforcement is handled by check_deploy_security (not yet implemented).

AI AppSec scores 94 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 20 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the AI AppSec MCP server expose?

AI AppSec exposes 1 tool: scan_ai_security. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 384 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the AI AppSec MCP server still maintained?

AI AppSec is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
