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

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).
The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

PyPIPython’s uv installed (for the uvx command)

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": {
    "netallion-lite": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "netallion-mcp-lite"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add netallion-lite -- uvx netallion-mcp-lite

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "netallion-lite": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "netallion-mcp-lite"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "netallion-lite": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "netallion-mcp-lite"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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.

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 Netallion MCP Lite 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?

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 –, and the latest version (0.1.1) 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 Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Netallion MCP Lite

Free, local, IP-safe AI-development security — an MCP server from Netallion.

Netallion MCP Lite is a small Model Context Protocol server that helps you and your AI coding assistants avoid the most common mistake in AI-assisted development: leaking a credential. It flags a curated set of commodity, high-confidence secrets and credentials (AWS, GitHub, Stripe, OpenAI, private keys, database URIs, and more) in text and files.

It runs entirely on your machine. No account. No data sent to Netallion. Detected secrets are redacted before results are returned, so they are safe to hand back into an AI assistant's context.

Part of Netallion's Agentic Development Governance approach — secret detection is one capability, not the whole story.

What it is (and isn't)

	Netallion MCP Lite (this package)	Netallion AI Assurance (the platform)
Price	Free	Commercial (free trial)
Runs	Locally, no account	SaaS + IDE + CI
Detection	~27 commodity, high-confidence checks	Advanced detection well beyond commodity patterns
AI/MCP governance	—	AI provider governance, MCP governance
Policy & visibility	—	Central policy management, org-wide visibility
Compliance	—	Compliance and audit evidence
Data	Nothing leaves your machine	Enterprise controls

MCP Lite is deliberately limited. It is a genuinely useful local utility and an on-ramp: if you want advanced detection, AI/MCP governance, central policy, and audit evidence across your organisation, that lives in [Netallion AI Assurance](https://www.netallion.ai).

This package does not contain or depend on Netallion's proprietary detection engine.

Install & run

Requires Python 3.10+.

pip install netallion-mcp-lite

or, zero-install:

uvx netallion-mcp-lite

It speaks MCP over stdio. Add it to any MCP-compatible client (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, …):

"mcpServers": { "netallion-mcp-lite": { "command": "netallion-mcp-lite" } } }

Optionally confine scan_file to a specific directory:

"mcpServers": { "netallion-mcp-lite": { "command": "netallion-mcp-lite", "env": { "NETALLION_MCP_LITE_WORKSPACE_ROOT": "/path/to/your/project" } } } }

Tools

Tool	What it does
`scan_text`	Scan a string for commodity secrets; returns redacted findings (rule, severity, line/column, remediation).
`scan_file`	Scan a file inside the workspace root; sensitive files (`.env`, keys) are refused; findings redacted.
`list_supported_checks`	List the commodity checks (no secrets).
`about`	About the tool, privacy posture, and Lite vs AI Assurance.

Run list_supported_checks to see the full set. Findings never include the full secret value.

Privacy

Local-only. No telemetry. No source, file contents, prompts, or secrets are sent anywhere. See PRIVACY.md.

Scope & limitations

Commodity, high-confidence formats only — it will not catch obfuscated, encoded, or org-specific secrets. That is by design; advanced detection is part of Netallion AI Assurance.
scan_file reads only within a single workspace root and refuses obviously-sensitive files.
No generic high-entropy scanning (it produces noise without advanced technique).

We make no claims about detection rates, false-positive rates, customer adoption, certifications, or regulatory compliance for this free utility.
