What is the Snyk MCP Server?

Connect your Snyk security dashboard natively to your preferred AI agent. Speed up your DevSecOps workflow by diagnosing and investigating package vulnerabilities via natural language. Rather than jumping between browser tabs trying to locate a specific CVE report, query your organizational vulnerability footprint dynamically through MCP.

What you can do

Project Surveillance — Discover application projects via list_projects and fetch internal configurations calling get_project_details
Vulnerability Hunting — Expose specific codebase flaws instantly with list_issues, extracting actionable remediation steps querying get_issue_details
Company Operations — Traverse hierarchical structures via list_organizations and see who contributes using list_organization_members
Admin Controls — Monitor API connectivity invoking list_integrations and check scan caps via get_usage_stats and get_billing_info

How it works

Subscribe to this AI integration server
Introduce your personal Snyk API Token
Start using Claude, Cursor, or your terminal IDE to command your security checks

Stop digging through the Snyk UI just to see why a container build failed. Find the precise faulty dependency versions instantly within your codebase context.

Who is this for?

DevSecOps — query exact details on critical CVEs before approving PR merges, generating threat analysis models quickly
App Developers — discover which underlying package versions triggered build issues seamlessly without running local dependency scanners
SysAdmins — pull quick organizational billing usage limits dynamically and audit user integrations from pure text instructions

Why Cursor?

Cursor's Agent mode turns Snyk into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Snyk and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 9 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

—
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
—
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
—
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
—
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can the AI give me the code fix for a Snyk security vulnerability?

Yes! The bot uses get_issue_details to read Snyk's extensive remediation context natively. Because it operates inside your IDE (like Cursor), it seamlessly merges Snyk's advisory with your actual local file context to write a highly secure patch immediately.

How do I find my organization ID if I only know my project name?

You don't need to manually hunt for it. Simply tell your AI agent: 'Find my React Frontend project and list its issues'. The AI will autonomously query list_organizations, isolate the correct ID, run list_projects under it, find the matching name, and then execute the issue retrieval.

Is it safe to expose my project vulnerabilities to an AI?

Yes. Vinkius operates transparently—your Snyk API Token is securely isolated and requests route directly from your local MCP client to Snyk endpoint APIs. No underlying CVE issue is retained or spied upon on cloud databases you don't control.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
