Socket

Socket is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to empower AI assistants with crucial dependency security insights. It allows AI tools like Claude, VS Code Copilot, and Cursor to scan npm, PyPI, and other package ecosystems for comprehensive security scores, including supply chain, quality, maintenance, vulnerability, and license metrics. Users can leverage a public hosted service or deploy it locally, streamlining the process of identifying and mitigating security risks in their software dependencies without requiring authentication for the public service.
