agentshield

What it does

AgentShield is a specialized security scanner designed to identify and detect vulnerabilities in AI agent configurations, MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, and tool permissions. It helps developers and teams secure their AI agent deployments by analyzing configurations for potential security risks and misconfigurations that could be exploited.

How to set up

AgentShield offers multiple installation methods to suit different workflows. Install via CLI for local scanning, integrate as a GitHub Action for automated CI/CD pipeline checks, use the ECC plugin for IDE integration, or deploy as a GitHub App for repository-wide monitoring. Configuration requires specifying target agent files and permission scopes to scan.
