This server bridges Snyk's security scanning platform into your Claude workflow through the Snyk CLI. You get direct access to all the major Snyk scan types: open source dependencies, code analysis, infrastructure as code, container scanning, SBOM generation, and secret detection. The integration exposes operations like snyk_sca_scan, snyk_code_scan, and snyk_iac_scan as MCP tools, letting you trigger scans and retrieve findings without leaving your AI assistant. Worth noting that some scans may execute third-party build tools like Maven or Gradle on your machine to analyze dependency trees. Reach for this when you want security analysis inline with your development workflow, especially if you're already using Snyk for application security.

Readme
Snyk Studio MCP
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open protocol that standardizes how applications share context with large language models.
MCP can provide AI systems with additional information needed to generate accurate and relevant responses for use cases where the AI systems do not have the context, by integrating the AI systems with tools and platforms that have specific capabilities.
You can integrate Snyk MCP into MCP-supporting tools to provide Snyk security context.
Snyk is introducing an MCP server as part of the Snyk CLI. This allows MCP-enabled agentic tools to integrate Snyk security scanning capabilities directly, thus bridging the gap between security scanning and AI-assisted workflows.
In environments or applications that use MCP, you can use the snyk mcp CLI command to:
- Invoke Snyk scans:
Trigger CLI security scans for code, dependencies, or configurations in your codebase in your current MCP context. - Retrieve results:
Obtain Snyk security findings directly in your MCP-enabled tool or environment.
The Snyk MCP server supports integrating the following Snyk security tools into an AI system:
