Vibesafe MCP Server

VibeSafe security scanner as an MCP server — scan code, live URLs, and run a Launch Check on your app from any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, etc.).

What is the Vibesafe MCP server?

Vibesafe MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Vibesafe directly instead of describing what you should do. VibeSafe security scanner as an MCP server — scan code, live URLs, and run a Launch Check on your app from any MCP client (Claude, Cursor, etc.).

What you get

Run the VibeSafe security scanner directly inside any MCP client — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and others. Ask your AI to "scan this file with VibeSafe" and get a plain-English security report with fixes, without leaving your chat.

What the assistant can call

Once Vibesafe is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:

  • vibesafe_scan_code — Scan code for exposed secrets, injection flaws, and risky patterns → security score + per-issue fixes
  • vibesafe_scan_url — Scan a deployed site for missing security headers, HTTPS issues, exposed paths, CORS problems
  • vibesafe_launch_check — Open your deployed app in a real browser like a user, capture errors, return a launch-readiness score

Setting it up

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.

Configuration and credentials

You will need one environment variable: VIBESAFE_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Choosing this one

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Vibesafe's toolset — vibesafe_scan_code, vibesafe_scan_url, vibesafe_launch_check — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by sabahatghauri; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

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

Before you rely on it

  • 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.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the vibesafe mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Vibesafe to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 3 tools (vibesafe_scan_code, vibesafe_scan_url, vibesafe_launch_check) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Vibesafe directly.
