How do I find my Contrast Security API credentials?

Log into your Contrast Security web interface. Navigate directly to your profile dropdown via **User Settings** -> **Profile**. Here you will find your distinct Authorization Key (encoded string), API Key, and the required Organization UUID at the very top.

What exactly is termed a 'Trace' in the Contrast ecosystem?

A Trace is the Contrast terminology applied to a single explicit instance of a security vulnerability uncovered deep within an executing application. Every trace holds a massive amount of payload data concerning the attack vectors.

Can I use this MCP integration to completely delete trace incidents?

No. The integration architecture focuses heavily on purely read-only auditing workflows. Features like permanently overwriting and deleting incident historical data are prohibited to ensure strong forensic compliance logs.

Contrast Security + Pydantic AI FAQ

Common questions about integrating Contrast Security MCP Server with Pydantic AI.

How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?

Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.

Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?

Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.

Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?

Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Contrast Security MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
