Socket
Enables AI assistants to efficiently check dependency vulnerability and security information.
About
Socket is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to empower AI assistants with crucial dependency security insights. It allows AI tools like Claude, VS Code Copilot, and Cursor to scan npm, PyPI, and other package ecosystems for comprehensive security scores, including supply chain, quality, maintenance, vulnerability, and license metrics. Users can leverage a public hosted service or deploy it locally, streamlining the process of identifying and mitigating security risks in their software dependencies without requiring authentication for the public service.
Key Features
- Comprehensive security scanning for various package ecosystems (npm, PyPI, etc.)
- Publicly hosted server available for immediate use with no authentication
- Multiple deployment options: stdio, HTTP, or public service
- Seamless integration with popular AI assistants like Claude, VS Code Copilot, and Cursor
- Batch processing for checking multiple dependencies in a single request
- 24 GitHub stars
Use Cases
- Checking security scores for specific package versions using AI assistant commands
- Analyzing the overall security of project dependencies defined in manifest files
- Identifying vulnerability, supply chain, and quality issues in multiple libraries concurrently
