GitGuardian MCP Server - Security in Your AI IDE

  Release Date: June 19, 2025

The GitGuardian MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server is now available on GitHub. This integration brings GitGuardian's security capabilities directly into your AI-powered development environment, supporting Cursor, Windsurf, and any IDE implementing the Model Context Protocol.

The MCP Server enables your AI agent to read and analyze security incidents, generate honeytokens, and perform automated remediation tasks—all without leaving your development workflow.

Key Benefits

2. Real-Time Security Feedback: Catch security issues immediately during development, before they enter your codebase.
3. Enhanced Developer Autonomy: Empower developers to manage security posture independently with direct access to GitGuardian's tools.
