Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Governance runtime for AI-generated code. Enforce compliance and security standards.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: GUARD_LICENSE_KEY

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: GUARD_LICENSE_KEY

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

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": {
    "sentrik": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "sentrik"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GUARD_LICENSE_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add sentrik --env GUARD_LICENSE_KEY=your-value -- npx -y sentrik

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": {
    "sentrik": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "sentrik"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GUARD_LICENSE_KEY": "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": {
    "sentrik": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "sentrik"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GUARD_LICENSE_KEY": "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.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • GUARD_LICENSE_KEY secret env
    Sentrik license key for Team/Organization features (optional — free tier works without it)

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is Sentrik 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: GUARD_LICENSE_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 (1.2.0) reached the registry 7 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?

What is Sentrik?

Sentrik is a CLI + dashboard that enforces coding standards, compliance rules, and security policies on every commit. Built for teams using AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) where code is generated faster than humans can review it.

The problem: AI agents write code that *works* but may violate security policies, compliance requirements, or architectural standards. Nobody catches it until audit time.

The solution: Sentrik scans every change against regulatory standards (OWASP, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, FDA IEC 62304, and more), gates PRs that fail, and generates audit-ready evidence.

Install

pip install sentrik

Installing gives you the free tier immediately — 6 standards packs, 193 rules, no license key or sign-up. Paid tiers are activated with a license key from hello@sentrik.dev.

Quick Start

# 1. Initialize your project (auto-detects language, frameworks, CI)

sentrik init

2. Scan your code

sentrik scan

3. Enforce the gate in CI (exit 1 on failure)

CI/CD Integration

GitHub Actions (Marketplace)
# .github/workflows/sentrik.yml

name: Sentrik Gate on: [pull_request] jobs: gate: runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps:

That's it — one line. The action auto-detects PR context, runs the gate, uploads SARIF to GitHub Code Scanning, and attaches the findings report as an artifact.

AI Agent Integration

Sentrik works as an MCP server for AI coding agents:

# Start MCP server for Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code

sentrik mcp-server

The MCP server gives AI agents real-time access to compliance rules, scan results, and remediation guidance — so they write compliant code from the start.
