About Semgrep MCP Server
Connect the Semgrep AppSec platform directly to your AI agent to radically accelerate code security triaging. Instead of forcing developers to jump between their IDE and the Semgrep dashboard, empower your AI to pull 'Findings', analyze the vulnerable syntax, and instantly close false positives.
Pydantic AI validates every Semgrep tool response against typed schemas, catching data inconsistencies at build time. Connect 10 tools through Vinkius and switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini without changing your integration code. full type safety, structured output guarantees, and dependency injection for testable agents.
What you can do
- Triage Findings (Bugs) — Instruct the agent to grab the latest CI vulnerability findings and immediately push a status update to mark it as fixed, ignored, or mitigated (
update_finding_status) - Rule Management — Request the AI to look at a newly discovered bad coding pattern and command it to write and deploy a matching custom semantic rule (
create_rule) to your organizational deployment - Project & Deployment Scoping — Map out all repositories running Semgrep actions and check their overarching security health scores in milliseconds
- Comprehensive Forensics — Fetch granular SCA and SAST semantic flaw definitions, including exact snippets, CVE links, and the specific bad lines causing the trigger
The Semgrep MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Pydantic AI in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.

Why Use Pydantic AI with the Semgrep MCP Server
Pydantic AI provides unique advantages when paired with Semgrep through the Model Context Protocol.
Full type safety: every MCP tool response is validated against Pydantic models, catching data inconsistencies before they reach your application
Model-agnostic architecture. switch between OpenAI, Anthropic, or Gemini without changing your Semgrep integration code
Structured output guarantee: Pydantic AI ensures tool results conform to defined schemas, eliminating runtime type errors
Dependency injection system cleanly separates your Semgrep connection logic from agent behavior for testable, maintainable code
Semgrep + Pydantic AI Use Cases
Practical scenarios where Pydantic AI combined with the Semgrep MCP Server delivers measurable value.
Type-safe data pipelines: query Semgrep with guaranteed response schemas, feeding validated data into downstream processing
API orchestration: chain multiple Semgrep tool calls with Pydantic validation at each step to ensure data integrity end-to-end
Production monitoring: build validated alert agents that query Semgrep and output structured, schema-compliant notifications
Testing and QA: use Pydantic AI's dependency injection to mock Semgrep responses and write comprehensive agent tests
Semgrep MCP Tools for Pydantic AI (10)
These 10 tools become available when you connect Semgrep to Pydantic AI via MCP:
create_rule
Allows developers to forbid project-specific bad patterns securely and continuously across the enterprise repositories. Create a customized Semgrep security rule within the platform
delete_rule
Delete a custom Semgrep security rule from the deployment
get_finding_details
Explains the exact malicious code block, suggests semantic fixes, states whether it is blocking PRs in CI, and links to CVE data (if an SCA supply chain defect). Get atomic details for a specific Semgrep flaw
get_metrics
Typically consumed to render executive security dashboards. Get AppSec metrics and compliance stats for Semgrep
get_project
Search for a precise Semgrep project by exact repository name
list_deployments
The primary key is the deployment slug identifier. Almost all subsequent API operations targeting rules, projects, or findings will require this deployment slug to define the scope. List Semgrep organizational deployments
list_findings
Findings provide snippet details, file line numbers, severity, and rule types. Fetch global static analysis security findings for a deployment
list_projects
Projects maintain a link between developers and static security scan outputs over time. List Semgrep projects (repositories) monitored in a deployment
list_rules
The rules are structured YAML definitions that search for semantic anti-patterns in codebases (e.g., unparameterized SQL queries, hardcoded AWS keys). List Semgrep semantic rules deployed globally
update_finding_status
Valid states generally include active, fixed, false_positive, ignored, mitigated. Resolving findings through this API cleans up the developer experience when managing compliance queues. Mark a Semgrep finding state (e.g., fixed, false positive)
Example Prompts for Semgrep in Pydantic AI
Ready-to-use prompts you can give your Pydantic AI agent to start working with Semgrep immediately.
"List the most severe unmitigated findings currently breaking our CI/CD pipeline on the 'vinkius/cloud' repository."
"Mark vulnerability issue ID #58032 as a 'false_positive' using the update finding tool."
"Review the company's Semgrep performance metrics focusing on fix rate."
