What is the Salt Security MCP Server?
The Salt Security MCP Server gives AI agents like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor direct access to Salt Security via 10 tools. Integrate Salt Security directly with your AI for comprehensive API threat vector discovery, posture management, and active remediation in real-time. Powered by the Vinkius - no API keys, no infrastructure, connect in under 2 minutes.
Built-in capabilities (10)
Tools for your AI Agents to operate Salt Security
Ask your AI agent "List all auto-discovered APIs including shadow and zombie APIs in our infrastructure." and get the answer without opening a single dashboard. With 10 tools connected to real Salt Security data, your agents reason over live information, cross-reference it with other MCP servers, and deliver insights you would spend hours assembling manually.
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. Powered by the Vinkius - your credentials never touch the AI model, every request is auditable. Connect in under two minutes.
Why teams choose Vinkius
One subscription gives you access to thousands of MCP servers - and you can deploy your own to the Vinkius Edge. Your AI agents only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure and security, zero maintenance.

What the Salt Security MCP Server unlocks
Connect your AI directly with Salt Security to proactively defend your Application Programming Interface (API) environment. Improve API discovery, manage security posture, and remediate threats in real-time through simple conversational prompts.
What you can do
- API Inventory & Discovery — View all auto-discovered APIs in your environment, including unknown or shadow APIs (
get_inventory). Retrieve schema details, identify exposed sensitive data (PII), and analyze structural drifts (get_endpoint). - Threat Intelligence & Monitoring — Monitor active API attacks and business logic abuses as they happen (
get_attacks). Profile known threat actors to uncover behavioral patterns (get_attackers). - Active Remediation — Respond to incidents immediately by triggering blockade commands against attackers, seamlessly passing instructions to your integrated WAFs (
block_attacker). - Posture & Governance Assessment — Identify design flaws and vulnerabilities before they reach production (
get_posture_vulnerabilities). Manage OpenAPI (OAS) specifications (list_oas_specs,upload_oas_spec) and verify active governance rules (get_governance_policies).
How it works
1. Enable the Salt Security integration in your workspace.
2. Navigate to your Salt Security console.
3. Go to the Settings or Administration section and generate a new API Token.
4. Paste this token securely into the configuration fields provided below.
5. Ask the AI: "Are there any known threat actors exploiting our APIs right now?"
Frequently asked questions about the Salt Security MCP Server
Can the AI forcefully block attackers or does it just view them?
You can explicitly instruct the AI to use the block_attacker tool, which triggers a remediation event across your security infrastructure (e.g., WAF integrations). It provides both visibility and direct active response.
Does Salt Security allow me to upload spec definitions (OAS) directly from my files via chat?
Yes, you can upload raw specification content using the upload_oas_spec tool for vulnerability testing and validation. Provide the exact OpenAPI content, and Salt will interpret it securely naturally properly successfully cleanly nicely properly natively completely optimally brightly cleanly beautifully actively quickly seamlessly efficiently correctly elegantly faithfully efficiently natively perfectly.
How frequently is the API inventory auto-discovered?
Salt maintains a continuous discovery architecture via passive traffic monitoring. This prevents any drift and immediately identifies 'Ghost APIs' when queried using the get_inventory capability.
