SMCPv1 - Secure Model Context Protocol

A comprehensive, production-ready security framework for Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementations. SMCPv1 provides multi-layered security, AI-immune threat detection, and seamless integration across multiple programming languages.

Quick Start

Choose Your Language

Python

pip install smcp-security

from smcp_security import SMCPSecurityFramework

security = SMCPSecurityFramework()
validated_request = security.validate_request(mcp_request)

Node.js/TypeScript

npm install smcp-security

import { SMCPSecurityFramework } from 'smcp-security';

const security = new SMCPSecurityFramework();
const validatedRequest = await security.validateRequest(mcpRequest);

Go

go get github.com/wizardscurtain/SMCPv1/libraries/go@v1.0.0

import "github.com/wizardscurtain/SMCPv1/libraries/go/smcp"

security, _ := smcp.NewSecurityFramework(nil)
validatedRequest, _ := security.ValidateRequest(ctx, request)

Rust

cargo add smcp-security

use smcp_security::SecurityFramework;

let security = SecurityFramework::new(Default::default()).await?;
let validated_request = security.validate_request(&request).await?;

Java

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.smcp</groupId>
    <artifactId>smcp-security</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.0</version>
</dependency>

SMCPSecurityFramework security = new SMCPSecurityFramework();
MCPRequest validatedRequest = security.validateRequest(request);

C#

dotnet add package SMCP.Security

var security = new SMCPSecurityFramework();
var validatedRequest = await security.ValidateRequestAsync(request);
