About Lacework (Cloud Security & CNAPP) MCP Server
Connect your Lacework (FortiCNAPP) account to any AI agent and take full control of your cloud security posture and threat hunting through natural conversation.
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code. it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including Lacework (Cloud Security & CNAPP) tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.
What you can do
- Alert Orchestration — Search and retrieve deep behavioral telemetry for security alerts, identifying anomalous Kubernetes executions or AWS IAM brute-forcing attempts directly from your agent
- Vulnerability Management — List critical CVEs executing on cloud hosts and monitor static image vulnerabilities in your container registries (ECR, DockerHub)
- Emergency Incident Response — Instantly search your entire infrastructure for specific CVE exposure (e.g., Log4j) to identify vulnerable nodes during zero-day events
- Asset Inventory Audit — Query the real-time cloud control-plane to enumerate running instances, unrestricted S3 buckets, and active networking perimeters
- Threat Hunting (LQL) — Execute specialized Lacework Query Language (LQL) requests to analyze vast datasets for anomalous login patterns or API key abuse
- Compliance Monitoring — List and audit global cloud security policies to ensure your infrastructure remains within regulatory and organizational norms
The Lacework (Cloud Security & CNAPP) MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cline in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Lacework (Cloud Security & CNAPP) MCP Tools for Cline (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Lacework (Cloud Security & CNAPP) to Cline via MCP:
execute_query
Produces bespoke output matrices tracking API keys bypassing IAM logic, anomalous login patterns, or Kubernetes process spawn trees. Execute an LQL Threat Hunting Query on-demand
get_alert
Extracts precisely what baseline behavior was deviated from, providing deep contextual metadata such as explicit AWS Accounts involved, offending Container Image SHAs, and correlated external IP anomalies. Get exact behavioral payloads and telemetry for an Alert
list_container_vulnerabilities
Examines ECR/DockerHub registries or direct cluster deployments for images carrying critical inherited CVEs at the filesystem level before CI/CD promotion blocks. List static image vulnerabilities detected in Container Registries
list_host_vulnerabilities
Identifies running processes strictly matched against Critical or High CVEs (e.g., Log4j, Polkit) directly active inside EC2 or GCE instances. List known vulnerabilities executing natively on Cloud Hosts/VMs
list_lql_queries
These extract precise cloud telemetry fields mapping user-defined compliance checks directly against the underlying dataset. List all Lacework Query Language (LQL) structures
list_resource_groups
Helps define what constitutes "Production" vs "Staging" in Policy evaluation engines. List logical Resource Groups managing Lacework architectures
list_security_policies
Confirms whether Lacework will alert directly if an engineer violates structural norms (e.g., exposing port 22 directly to 0.0.0.0/0). List all global Cloud Security Policies enforced by Lacework
search_alerts
Fetches events mapping to anomalous Kubernetes executions, AWS IAM brute-forcing attempts, and massive container network exfiltrations spanning the specified time filter. Search Cloud Security alerts dynamically across Lacework
search_cloud_inventory
Used to dynamically enumerate running instances, active networking perimeters, or unrestricted S3 buckets discovered by cross-account role polling. Query the real-time Lacework Cloud Control-Plane Asset Inventory
search_cve_exposure
Directly filters the entire cloud infrastructure footprint determining exactly which specific nodes (Machines) are currently vulnerable to the designated CVE (e.g. "CVE-2026-0001"). Search all integrated Machines/Instances for a specific CVE
