MCP server security scanner: detects prompt injection, credential leaks, SSRF, tool poisoning.
The publisher's own server: Safeguard
Overview
A local MCP server that scans MCP servers for security problems such as prompt injection, credential leaks, SSRF and tool poisoning.
- What you can do
- Scan MCP servers for prompt injection and tool poisoning risks, based on the registry description. Detect credential leaks and SSRF issues in server configurations. Runs as a local process on the user's machine over stdio; no tool list is published, so the exact scanning commands are not documented here.
- When to use it
- Worth considering when you are evaluating or installing third-party MCP servers and want a security check before trusting them with credentials or data.
- Requirements
- A local Python runtime able to install the mcp-safeguard package from PyPI; runs as a stdio process on a desktop machine. No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Mcp Safeguard in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

15% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
- Reached in the last 30 days25 pts
Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declared10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
- Tools listed15 pts
Answer tools/list without a credential, or ship a package that starts in a sandbox without one.
