SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Fast security scanning of the current repository to surface vulnerabilities, secrets, and SAST issues.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Incremental PR scans for changes, full repository quick scans by default, and language detection from manifests; supports deterministic MCP-based scanning with a CLI fallback when MCP is unavailable.

Quick Start

Run a fast security scan on the current repository using the Endor MCP tool with default scan types and quick_scan enabled.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run a fast security scan on my code repository?

Run a fast security scan on your code repository by using the Endor MCP tool with quick_scan enabled to surface default scan types including vulnerabilities, dependencies, SAST, and secrets.

Can I scan only the changed code in a pull request for vulnerabilities?

Yes, you can scan only the changed code in a pull request by enabling incremental PR scans, which target vulnerabilities, secrets, and SAST issues specifically within the new changes.

What is the difference between a full repository quick scan and an incremental PR scan?

A full repository quick scan evaluates the entire codebase for vulnerabilities and secrets, whereas an incremental PR scan focuses only on the modified files in a pull request for faster feedback.

Does the security scanner work if the MCP server is unavailable?

Yes, the security scanner works if the MCP server is unavailable by automatically falling back to a CLI-based scanning approach to ensure vulnerabilities and SAST issues are still detected.

What types of security issues can I detect with a codebase SAST scan?

A codebase SAST scan detects vulnerabilities, dependency issues, hardcoded secrets, and static application security testing problems by analyzing manifests and source code.

Do I need to manually specify the programming language for a repository security scan?

No, you do not need to manually specify the programming language because the scanner automatically detects languages from project manifests during the quick scan process.
