README
GuardianShield
Universal AI security layer — an open-source MCP server for code scanning, PII detection, prompt injection defense, secret detection, dependency auditing, and audit logging.
Zero dependencies · 27 MCP tools · 5 safety profiles · 108+ detection patterns
Features
- Code Vulnerability Scanning — SQL injection, XSS, command injection, path traversal with CWE IDs and auto-fix remediation
- Cross-line Data Flow Analysis — DeepEngine tracks tainted data from sources to sinks across multiple lines using AST-based taint propagation (Python) and regex (JS/TS)
- Dependency Security — Version-aware CVE matching against OSV.dev for PyPI, npm, Go, and Packagist ecosystems
- Manifest Parsing — Auto-detects 11 formats (requirements.txt, package.json, yarn.lock, go.mod, composer.json, and more)
- Prompt Injection Defense — 9+ detection patterns for instruction override, role hijacking, ChatML injection
- PII Detection — Email, SSN, credit card, phone, IP — with automatic redaction in findings
- Secret Detection — AWS keys, GitHub tokens, Stripe keys, JWTs, passwords, connection strings
- Safety Profiles — 5 built-in profiles (general, education, healthcare, finance, children)
- Audit Logging — SQLite-backed scan history with finding retrieval and filtering

Scan source code for vulnerabilities and hardcoded secrets |
scan_file |
Scan a single file (auto-detects language from extension) |
scan_directory |
Recursively scan a directory with filtering and progress streaming |
scan_input |
Check user/agent input for prompt injection attempts |
scan_output |
Check AI output for PII leaks and content violations |
check_secrets |
Detect hardcoded secrets and credentials |
scan_files |
Scan multiple files in one call |
scan_diff |
Parse unified diff and scan only added lines |
Dependency Security
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
check_dependencies |
Check packages for known CVEs via OSV.dev (PyPI, npm, Go, Packagist) |
sync_vulnerabilities |
Sync the local OSV vulnerability database |
parse_manifest |
Parse any supported manifest file (11 formats) into dependency objects |
scan_dependencies |

False Positive Management
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
mark_false_positive |
Mark a finding as false positive (flags future matches) |
list_false_positives |

scan_with_baseline |
Scan code and report only new findings vs. baseline |
check_quality_gate |
Evaluate findings against severity thresholds (pass/fail/warn) |
scan_files |
Scan multiple files in one call |
scan_diff |
Parse unified diff and scan only added lines |
Configuration & Utilities
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
get_profile |
