🔒 mcp-config-guard - Protect Your Code from Threats

⚙️ What is mcp-config-guard?

mcp-config-guard is a simple tool that scans your code or projects to find potential security problems. It runs checks that match 54 OWASP security points. It also looks for known harmful software packages and warns you about 28 different known vulnerabilities (CVEs). You don’t need to install anything extra to run it.

This tool helps keep your projects safe from common threats you might not see otherwise. It works on Windows and requires no prior programming skills.

💻 System Requirements

Before you start, make sure your computer meets these needs:

• Windows 10 or newer
• At least 2 GB of free storage
• An active internet connection for download and updates
• Python installed (version 3.7 or higher) – if you want to use it via pip

If you don’t have Python installed, you can still use the standalone download to run the software directly.

After this, use the following command inside Command Prompt to scan your project folder:

mcp-config-guard scan path\to\your\project

Replace path\to\your\project with the actual location of your files on your computer.

📁 How mcp-config-guard Works

mcp-config-guard scans files in your project for security issues by:

• Running 54 checks that map to OWASP standards.
• Detecting if any packages are known to be harmful.
• Highlighting 28 common vulnerabilities.

It then creates a report to explain what it found. This report shows if there are any risks and where they are in your project.

🔍 Understanding the Scan Report

The report tells you:

• Which files have potential security problems.
• The exact kind of problem found.
• Suggestions to fix the problem.

You can open the report in a text editor or special tools that read the SARIF format. This format is common for security and code analysis results.

🛠 Tips for Better Security

• Always update mcp-config-guard before running scans. New threats may be found as software changes.
• Scan your project regularly, especially after adding new packages or making big updates.
• Review the scan report carefully to fix any issues.
• Combine this tool with other security checks for better safety.

⚠️ Troubleshooting and Support

If you run into problems:

• Make sure your Windows system is updated.
• Check that you have permissions to open files and install apps.
• If Python commands don’t work, ensure Python is installed and added to your system’s PATH.
• Try downloading the software again if the file seems corrupted.
• Visit the GitHub page for the latest information and issue reporting.
