PageGuard MCP server — privacy compliance scanning for AI coding tools

Local serverstdio

What is the Pageguard MCP MCP server?

Connect Pageguard MCP to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. PageGuard MCP server — privacy compliance scanning for AI coding tools. The pageguard mcp mcp server is what makes that connection.

What the server does

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes PageGuard privacy compliance scanning as tools for AI coding assistants. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, ChatGPT, and any MCP-compatible environment.

  • Local scan — — Detects tracking technologies, cookies, and third-party data collection from your project's package.json, config files, and .env files. No API key needed, no network requests
  • URL scan — — Scans a live website for privacy compliance issues including risk scoring and compliance gap analysis
  • Document generation — — Generates AI-written legal documents (privacy policy, terms of service, cookie policy, etc.) tailored to your detected technologies

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • Cursor — The Cursor tool exposed by this server
  • Windsurf — The Windsurf tool exposed by this server
  • pageguard_scan_local — Scan a local project directory for privacy-relevant technologies
  • pageguard_scan_url — The pageguard_scan_url tool exposed by this server
  • pageguard_generate_docs — Generate AI-written legal compliance documents for a scanned site

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: PAGEGUARD_API_KEY, PAGEGUARD_API_URL. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Installation

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

Where it fits

Plenty of file and storage access servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Pageguard MCP's toolset — Cursor, Windsurf, pageguard_scan_local and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by pageguard; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Pageguard MCP to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 5 tools (Cursor, Windsurf, pageguard_scan_local, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Pageguard MCP directly.
