Bring Sast
to Windsurf
Create your Vinkius account to connect Semgrep to Windsurf and start using all 10 AI tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code. No hosting, no server setup — just connect and start using.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the 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.
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
How it works
- Enable this MCP server within your workflow
- Supply a standard API Token from your Semgrep Dashboard settings
- Engage your agent in Cursor or Claude to cross-examine security warnings dynamically
Who is this for?
- Security Engineers (AppSec) — tell the AI to quickly delete an obsolete rule across the entire deployment without wrestling with the dashboard interface
- DevOps — retrieve compliance metrics and pipeline fix rates natively and pipe them directly into an executive summary report via chat
- Software Developers — let Cursor fetch the specific
finding_idblocking your PR, explain what the vulnerability means, and draft the exact semantic fix to pass the scan
Built-in capabilities (10)
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 a custom Semgrep security rule from the deployment
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
Typically consumed to render executive security dashboards. Get AppSec metrics and compliance stats for Semgrep
Search for a precise Semgrep project by exact repository name
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
Findings provide snippet details, file line numbers, severity, and rule types. Fetch global static analysis security findings for a deployment
Projects maintain a link between developers and static security scan outputs over time. List Semgrep projects (repositories) monitored in a deployment
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
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)
Why Windsurf?

Frequently asked questions
Can the AI resolve or close findings in Semgrep natively?
Yes. This server supports mutable actions. By invoking update_finding_status, your AI agent can shift a specific semantic flaw to 'mitigated', 'fixed', 'ignored', or 'false_positive' updating the registry in real-time.
How can I deploy a new custom SAST rule via chat?
Simply ask the LLM: 'Draft a semantic grep rule to ban hardcoded API keys in Python and deploy it'. The agent will natively format the JSON structure required and call create_rule, sending it directly to all repositories.
Do I need to supply a 'Deployment Slug' for every request?
Most API queries require the deployment context. To ensure smooth interactions, just tell the agent your organization slug once (or let it query list_deployments to fetch the default one). The agent will remember it for the rest of the conversation loop.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
