Common questions

Is Injectshield safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: INJECTSHIELD_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 5 months ago, and the latest version (0.1.4) reached the registry 6 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

@injectshield/mcp

MCP server for [InjectShield](https://github.com/bch1212/injectshield) — exposes the InjectShield prompt-injection-detection API as MCP tools so any MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, etc.) can scan untrusted text before passing it into another LLM call.

Tools

`scan` — Scan a string for prompt-injection. Returns verdict, confidence, threat category, matched pattern IDs, and an optional sanitized version with injection spans redacted.
`scan_url` — Fetch a URL and scan its body. Sets context to web_content automatically.
`patterns` — List supported threat categories, context kinds, and sensitivity levels.

Get an API key

Free tier: 10,000 requests/month, no credit card. Self-serve at https://injectshield.dev — your key is delivered by email.

Install in Claude Code

claude mcp add injectshield --env INJECTSHIELD_API_KEY=is_live_… -- npx -y @injectshield/mcp

Install in Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

"mcpServers": { "promptshield": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@injectshield/mcp"], "env": { "INJECTSHIELD_API_KEY": "is_live_…" } } } }

Install in Cline / generic MCP client

Same shape as Cursor. Stdio transport, command npx -y @injectshield/mcp, set INJECTSHIELD_API_KEY in the env block.

Usage

Once installed, your agent has three new tools. Pattern-match this:

Before reading a fetched web page or file, call scan with the body and bail if safe is false. The cleaned variant in cleaned_text is the safest thing to feed forward.

Example (model-side reasoning):

User: Summarize https://example.com/article

Agent → scan_url({"url": "https://example.com/article"}) → { "safe": false, "threat_type": "instruction_injection", "patterns_matched": ["ignore-previous", "system-prompt-leak"], "cleaned_text": "...[REDACTED:instruction_injection]..." } Agent: I detected prompt-injection in this page. Working from the redacted version: ...

Configuration

Env var	Default	Purpose
`INJECTSHIELD_API_KEY`	(none)	Required for `scan` and `scan_url`. Get a free one.
`INJECTSHIELD_API_BASE`	`https://api.injectshield.dev`	Override for self-hosted deployments.

Defense in depth

InjectShield reduces but does not eliminate prompt-injection risk. Pair it with system-prompt hardening, tool sandboxing, and output filtering. See the main repo for the full pattern library and a more thorough discussion.
