AgentGuard Scanner
Open-source security scanner for AI agent configurations and deployments. Runs 100% locally with zero network calls for config/paste scanning.
Installation
pip install agentguard-scanner
Quick Start
Python API
import asyncio
from agentguard_scanner import VulnerabilityScanner, ScanRequest, ScanInputType
async def scan_config():
scanner = VulnerabilityScanner()
request = ScanRequest(
paste_content=open("CLAUDE.md").read(),
scan_input_type=ScanInputType.PASTE_MD,
)
result = await scanner.scan(request)
for finding in result.findings:
print(f"[{finding.severity.value}] {finding.title}")
asyncio.run(scan_config())
Scan a live agent URL
import asyncio
from agentguard_scanner import VulnerabilityScanner, ScanRequest
async def scan_url():
scanner = VulnerabilityScanner()
request = ScanRequest(target_url="https://my-agent.example.com")
result = await scanner.scan(request)
print(f"Risk score: {result.risk_score}/10")
print(f"Findings: {result.findings_count}")
asyncio.run(scan_url())
What It Scans
URL-based scanning (connects to your agent only)
- Authentication — JWT none algorithm, expired tokens, signature bypass, algorithm confusion, session fixation, IDOR, privilege escalation
- Prompt Injection — Direct injection, indirect injection, goal hijacking, system prompt leakage (canary-based detection)
- SSRF — Localhost access, private network, cloud metadata endpoints, webhook SSRF
- MCP Security — Unauthenticated tool execution, config exposure, dangerous tools
- Tool Execution — Command injection, path traversal, arbitrary code execution, shell access
- Config Security — Exposed config files, environment variables, secret leakage, debug mode, git exposure
Paste/file scanning (zero network calls)
- Agent Configs (CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, system prompts) — Overly permissive instructions, missing safety boundaries, privilege escalation, data exfiltration vectors, jailbreak susceptibility
- Tool Definitions (MCP configs, function schemas) — Dangerous tools, unconstrained inputs, SSRF vectors, command injection risk, missing auth
- Generic Content — Secret detection (12+ patterns), prompt injection indicators, config exposure, PII detection
Output Formats
from agentguard_scanner.formatters import format_json, format_sarif, format_table
# Human-readable table
print(format_table(result))
# Machine-readable JSON
print(format_json(result))
# SARIF 2.1.0 (GitHub Code Scanning, VS Code)
print(format_sarif(result))
