Rad Security MCP Server
Rad Security MCP Server. That is what the rad security mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for RAD Security, providing AI-powered security insights for Kubernetes and cloud environments.
Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.
The server publishes 6 tools. What each one is for:
Header — EffectCursor — The Cursor tool exposed by this serverCline — The Cline tool exposed by this serverWindsurf — ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json — note the URL field is serverUrl:Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverCredentials — Provide your RAD Security credentials via environment variables:Configuration is passed through the environment: RAD_SECURITY_ACCESS_KEY_ID, RAD_SECURITY_SECRET_KEY, RAD_SECURITY_ACCOUNT_ID, RAD_MCP_TOKEN, RAD_SECURITY_TENANT_ID, RAD_SECURITY_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.
This sits in the planning and project tracking group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. RAD Security's toolset — Header, Cursor, Cline and 3 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by rad-security; 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We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Your workspace, on speaking terms with AI — search, read and write Notion pages and databases.
Issue tracking at the speed of conversation — Linear's official hosted server with OAuth and zero install.
Search and read your Drive — Docs, Sheets and files become context your assistant can actually use.
Your assistant inside the workspace — read channels, search history, post messages and tame the noise.
Metabase ships its own MCP endpoint — search your BI content, build and run queries, and save questions and dashboards without leaving the chat.
Stop letting your assistant hallucinate n8n node parameters — this server hands it the real schemas, templates and validation.
