getreadystack/mcp-config-audit repository overview

⁠MCP Server Config Audit

Audit one mcp.json for what an agent config gives away — inline API keys, unpinned npx launches, plaintext remote servers, shell wrappers, auto-approved tools, whole-machine filesystem roots — with line numbers. The shipped sample config _fixtures/dirty.mcp.json (33 lines, five servers) returns 14 findings, 8 of them blocking.

⁠Run

docker run --rm -v "$PWD":/work getreadystack/mcp-config-audit /work/file

The same 18 rules as the VS Code extension, in a container. Mount a folder on /work.

⁠Free

• Audit one mcp.json against all 18 rules and get every inline credential, unpinned launch and over-broad grant named with its line number and its replacement. The extension ships a sample config, _fixtures/dirty.mcp.json, 33 lines and five servers, which returns 14 findings, 8 of them blocking, and its corrected twin _fixtures/clean.mcp.json, which returns zero.
• --rules lists every rule

⁠With a licence ($29 once)

• Audit every agent config in a repository and in the user-scope locations for VS Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop and Windsurf in one pass, fail CI with a non-zero exit code on any blocker, and export a dated evidence report of file, rule and line.

docker run --rm -e READYSTACK_LICENSE=<key> -v "$PWD":/work getreadystack/mcp-config-audit --dir /work --ci

Freelance application-security engineers commonly bill $100-$200 an hour; a single review hour costs more than three licences, and the config changes every time somebody adds a server.

⁠Use from an AI agent (MCP)

Claude Code · Cursor · Windsurf · any MCP client - add to your MCP config:

{ "mcpServers": { "mcp-config-audit": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@readystack/mcp-config-audit", "--mcp"] } } }

Tools: check_text and check_file (free) · check_dir (licence). The agent gets every finding with the line number.

⁠Use in CI

- name: MCP Server Config Audit
  run: npx -y @readystack/mcp-config-audit --dir . --ci

(container: docker run --rm -v "$PWD:/work" getreadystack/mcp-config-audit --dir /work --ci)

The folder sweep, reports and CI mode need one licence — one payment, no subscription. Set READYSTACK_LICENSE=<key> or run --license <key> once.
