What it does

Deterministic security findings + fix guidance for your AI agent. Runs locally, no account needed.

  • Connects Runs on your computer
  • Account or key No key needed
  • Category Developer tools

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Passed 3/3 checks · Runs on your computer · ✓ Commands checked Nov 14, 2026

First: which AI do you use?

Pick your app and the steps appear below.

Works with Claude, with some setup first

Install Node.js on your computer first (one time) · Only the Claude desktop app (Windows or Mac), not the web or phone

Let AI install it

Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.

Please install the MCP server Sphior Code MCP for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check Node.js with node -v. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://nodejs.org/en/download; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "sphior-code": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "sphior-code-mcp" ] } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) No key is needed. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the Sphior Code MCP tools really show up.

This message has no key in it. If a key is needed, the AI will ask you to paste it yourself into the file or the app’s field.

  1. Install Node.js (if you don’t have it)

    Already installed? Check first · Open Terminal, type this command and press Enter

    node -v
    • A version number such as v26.13.1 = installed, skip this step
    • "command not found" (on Windows: "is not recognized") = not installed yet, or installed but Terminal needs to be closed and reopened
    How to open Terminal

    Mac: press ⌘ + Space, type Terminal, press Enter

    Windows: open Start, type Windows PowerShell, then Open

    Not installed: Open the official download page, pick the LTS version and the click-through installer: .pkg on Mac · .msi on Windows. Double-click and follow it to the end. No curl command needed

    Open the Node.js download page ↗

    When it’s done, close Terminal, open it again and run the same command. You should see a version number: node -v

    Install once; it works for everything that needs Node.js

  2. Open the Claude desktop app’s settings file

        }
      }
    }
  4. Quit Claude and open it again

  5. Try it

    ✓ If Claude says it is using Sphior Code MCP or shows a Sphior Code MCP tool in the answer, you are connected

4 optional setting(s) (works without them)

The command above works without these. Add them only if you want to change something, following the maker’s description.

  • SPHIOR_API_KEY Optional. Without it the server runs in local mode: it scans your workspace with the bundled deterministic engine and returns fix guidance. Set it to also reach the repositories you connected to SPHI…
  • SPHIOR_WORKSPACE Optional. Directory to scan in local mode. Defaults to the directory your client launches the server in.
  • SPHIOR_API_BASE Override the API base URL for self-hosted / regional deployments. Default: https://sphior.com/api/v1
  • SPHIOR_TIMEOUT Optional. Local scan and request timeout in milliseconds (1000–300000). Default: 30000

Common questions

Is Sphior Code MCP 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 yesterday, and the latest version (1.1.12) reached the registry yesterday.

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?

sphior-code-mcp

Official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for SPHIOR CODE — find security issues in your code and let your own AI assistant fix them, inside any MCP-compatible client.

No account needed to start. With no API key set, the server scans your local workspace with the bundled deterministic engine and hands the findings to your AI agent. Add an API key later if you want tamper-evident evidence, history and GRC integrations.

What this gives you

Your AI assistant can now answer questions like:

  • *"Scan this project and fix the critical issues."* ← works with no account
  • *"What are the highest-severity vulnerabilities in my code right now?"*
  • *"Show me the fix for finding abc-123."*
  • *"Mark this SQL injection alert as resolved — I just fixed it."* (requires an API key)
  • *"What's our overall security posture this month?"* (requires an API key)

…using live data from SPHIOR's scanning engine — deterministic SAST (secrets + CWE patterns, analysed with real parsers across 14 languages) and SCA powered by OSV.dev. No AI is involved in detection, so the same code always produces the same findings.

Supported clients

This is a standard MCP stdio server, so it works with any MCP-compatible client:

Installation

# No install needed — use npx

npx -y sphior-code-mcp

Or install globally

npm install -g sphior-code-mcp sphior-code-mcp

Two modes

Local (default)Cloud
Setupnothing — just run itset SPHIOR_API_KEY
What it scansyour local workspacerepositories connected to SPHIOR
Tools availableget_fix_context, health_checkall 8 tools
Source code leaves your machinenevernever
Tamper-evident evidence / history / GRC push—✅

In local mode the server runs the same deterministic engine that powers the editor extensions (secrets + CWE patterns + taint analysis across 14 languages, parsed with real grammars) against the directory your client launched it in, then returns remediation guidance your agent can act on. It never contacts SPHIOR's servers.

Cloud-only tools return a clear message explaining what they need, rather than failing silently.

Configuration

Nothing is required to start. To unlock cloud features, set an API key from sphior.com/account/api:

export SPHIOR_API_KEY=sk_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx
Environment variables
VariableRequiredDefaultDescription
SPHIOR_API_KEYNo—Bearer token. Omit for local mode; set it for cloud mode
SPHIOR_WORKSPACENocurrent directoryDirectory to scan in local mode
SPHIOR_API_BASENohttps://sphior.com/api/v1Override for self-hosted / regional deployments
SPHIOR_TIMEOUTNo30000Request timeout in ms (1000–300000)
SPHIOR_DEBUGNofalseEnable verbose logging to stderr

Example config (Cursor / Claude Code / VS Code style)

Local mode — copy, paste, done. No account, no key.

{

"mcpServers": { "sphior-code": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "sphior-code-mcp"] } } }

Claude Code users can skip the file entirely:

claude mcp add sphior-code -- npx sphior-code-mcp

Then ask your agent: *"Scan this project and fix the critical issues."*

Cloud mode — add the key to the same block:

{

"mcpServers": { "sphior-code": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "sphior-code-mcp"], "env": { "SPHIOR_API_KEY": "sk_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx" } } } }

For GitHub Copilot in VS Code, use "servers" instead of "mcpServers" (the env block is optional here too):

{

"servers": { "sphior-code": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "sphior-code-mcp"] } } }

Tools exposed

ToolModePurpose
get_fix_contextlocal + cloudRemediation guidance your agent acts on — why it matters, exact location, steps, references. Source code is never sent; the agent opens the file in your own workspace
health_checklocal + cloudVerify the server is up (and auth, in cloud mode)
list_findingscloudList vulnerabilities (filter by severity / status / limit)
get_findingcloudFull details for one finding (CVSS, CWE, file path, fix hint)
get_security_summarycloudPosture overview (counts by severity, last scan, repos monitored)
resolve_findingcloudMark as fixed
mark_false_positivecloudMark as not exploitable
verify_evidencecloudIndependently verify the tamper-evident evidence chain (for auditors)

get_fix_context accepts path in local mode to scan a directory other than the one your client launched the server in.

Resources exposed

  • sphior-code://summary — JSON snapshot of current posture
  • sphior-code://findings/{id} — full detail per finding (auto-listed for open findings)

Reliability

  • Exponential backoff retry on 5xx / network errors (3 attempts)
  • 30-second request timeout (configurable)
  • Graceful degradation — auth errors fail fast, server errors retry
  • Structured errors with actionable hints
  • stderr-only logging (stdout is reserved for MCP protocol)

Development
