Quickstart

Run SecurityScanner from inside your AI editor in 3 minutes.

1. Go to /settings/api-keys and click Generate key. Copy the ss_live_… value.
2. Add this JSON to your editor's MCP config (path depends on editor — see IDE setup):

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "security-scanner": {
         "command": "npx",
         "args": ["-y", "@security-scanner/mcp-server"],
         "env": { "SCANNER_API_KEY": "ss_live_…" }
       }
     }
   }

3. Restart your editor. In a new chat, type: scan example.com. The MCP server will start a scan and return a scan_id.
4. To check progress: get_scan_status <scan_id>. When the scan completes, run list_findings <scan_id>.
5. For any critical or high finding, generate a code fix: propose_fix <finding_id>. (Pro plan or higher.)
6. Apply + verify: apply_fix <finding_id>. (Business plan or higher.)
