Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vantio-gate": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@vantio/gate-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "VANTIO_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "VANTIO_API_BASE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add vantio-gate --env VANTIO_API_KEY=your-value --env VANTIO_API_BASE=your-value -- npx -y @vantio/gate-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vantio-gate": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@vantio/gate-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "VANTIO_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "VANTIO_API_BASE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "vantio-gate": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@vantio/gate-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "VANTIO_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "VANTIO_API_BASE": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Vantio Gate safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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: VANTIO_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 –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 4 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?

Vantio

Linux security for AI.

This repository contains Vantio Optics, the Phantom Engine installer, and the Python SDK.

Vantio Optics (Open Core)

Free, local-first observability for AI egress. Optics is the free Observe tier. It records the destination, the process, the size, and the timing of a supported outbound call. Does not block actions or retain prompts or completions.

The Optics home is moving to github.com/vantioai/vantio-optics. Publishing still runs from this repository. The editor extension stays at extensions/vantio-optics. Commands and local install notes are in extensions/vantio-optics/README.md.

Install

These are the versions npm and PyPI served on 2026-10-21. Manifests in this git tree can be newer than the registry.

Package	Registry	Version
`@vantio/cli`	npm	0.3.24
`@vantio/agent-sdk`	npm	0.2.4
`vantio-agent-sdk`	PyPI	3.1.1
`@vantio/optics-mcp`	npm	0.1.2
`@vantio/gate-mcp`	npm	0.1.0

@vantio/gate-mcp is a compatibility package for an older integration.

Optics CLI, on macOS, Linux, and Windows (WSL):

npm install -g @vantio/cli@0.3.24

vantio run node agent.js

vantio run injects the Node interceptor with NODE_OPTIONS --require for node, npx, tsx, and ts-node. On Node it covers fetch, undici, http/https, http2, net/tls, WebSocket, and spawned curl or wget.

Python SDK:

pip install vantio-agent-sdk==3.1.1

Wrap a Python callable with @shield. Prefixing vantio run python does not intercept by itself.

Node SDK:

npm install @vantio/agent-sdk@0.2.4

The Node SDK exposes shield(). Outbound Node coverage comes from vantio run.

Optics MCP:

npm install @vantio/optics-mcp@0.1.2

Free Optics needs no account and no API key.

Browser paths stay outside this wrap.

A process can miss the wrapper when it opens a socket the Node interceptor does not see, starts a subprocess outside vantio run, or uses a runtime other than Node without the Python SDK. Optics records the paths it wrapped.

vantio coverage prints the processes and connections recorded on this system, and which of those paths are on a local allowlist. vantio destinations flags the first time a recorded program connects to a destination that is not on that list. vantio export sends those events as OTLP/HTTP JSON, syslog or JSON lines, or a webhook. Optics does not stop the call.

Telemetry is disabled by default. Set VANTIO_TELEMETRY=1 to opt in. VANTIO_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1 or DO_NOT_TRACK=1 override that opt-in.

Phantom Engine installer

Phantom Engine is enforcement and control for enrolled Linux systems. Contact Vantio. The product page is vantio.ai/phantom-engine.

The installer source is packages/vantio-install. vantio-install is not on npm or PyPI. Operator install uses the sealed wheel described in packages/vantio-install/docs/QUICKSTART.md. The commands are vantio-install and vantio-verify. That install does not replace @vantio/cli. The installer notes in that package target Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on x86_64.
