What is the Skillaudit MCP server?

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Security scanner for AI agent skills โ€” detect credential stealers, exfiltration, and malicious patterns before install. That is what the skillaudit mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

The short version

43 detection rules ยท 401 patterns ยท MCP + A2A coverage ยท Zero dependencies

The tools it exposes

The server publishes 2 tools. What each one is for:

  • Scanning โ€” The Scanning tool exposed by this server
  • Results โ€” The Results tool exposed by this server

What it needs from you

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

Getting it running

Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication โ€” you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.

How it compares

Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" โ€” permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Skillaudit's toolset โ€” Scanning, Results โ€” is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by megamind-0x; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Skillaudit's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Things to watch

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients โ€” 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.
