Install Observatory in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y @kryptosai/mcp-observatory on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

MCP Observatory

More badges

Secure the MCP servers you're building. MCP Observatory is the CI-native security tool for teams shipping custom MCP servers. Test during development, catch schema drift, simulate attacks, and generate compliance evidence — before agents depend on your servers.

Also available in Simplified Chinese.

Runtime enforcement: Use mcp-seatbelt to block dangerous MCP tool calls at runtime based on observatory scan results.

Get Started

Step-by-step setup guide · macOS, Windows, Linux · Node.js 20+ and npm (install Node.js LTS).

1. Run your first scan

Open Terminal or PowerShell in your project folder and paste:

npx -y @kryptosai/mcp-observatory@latest

This downloads Observatory and checks your first configured MCP server. With no configured server, it uses an included example. To try only that example, run npx -y @kryptosai/mcp-observatory@latest demo --example.

2. Read the result

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
