Official Snyk MCP server that brings developer security scanning into AI agent workflows. Lets agents scan code, open-source dependencies, containers, and infrastructure-as-code for vulnerabilities, retrieve fix advice, and check license issues directly from the editor or CI, using the Snyk CLI under the hood.
Official Semgrep MCP server for static application security testing. Lets AI agents scan code for security vulnerabilities and bugs, run custom rules, and return findings with severity and remediation guidance, embedding SAST into AI-powered development workflows.
MCP server for HashiCorp Vault secrets management. Enables AI agents to read and write secrets, list secret paths, and manage key/value engines under controlled policies, so applications and workflows can retrieve credentials securely from AI-powered tools.
Skills vs MCP servers
what's the difference?Skillsthe “what to do”
A skillA reusable, structured prompt/workflow with recommended models, an example prompt, and compatible tools. packages know-how — instructions, an example promptA ready-to-use prompt template that demonstrates how to invoke the skill., and recommended models — so an agent performs a task consistently. Skills add knowledge, not new connections.
MCP serversthe “how to connect”
An MCP serverModel Context Protocol server — a standard way to expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI agents and IDEs. gives an agent new capabilities by connecting it to real systems (databases, APIs, files) over a transportHow the client talks to the server: stdio (local process), SSE, or HTTP streaming.. MCP adds connections and actions, not task instructions.
Rule of thumb: reach for a skill when you need the model to do a task well, and an MCP server when you need it to reach a tool or system. They compose — a skill can rely on tools an MCP server provides.
