About
CPShield is an open-source AI agent security platform that automatically discovers Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers running across your organization's machines, assesses their risk using a 10-factor scoring algorithm, and provides a centralized dashboard for monitoring. Install the CLI agent with a single command (pip install mcpshield-agent), scan for MCP server configurations across Windows, macOS, and Linux, and get instant visibility into what AI tools have access to — without ever transmitting credential values. Supports daemon mode for continuous monitoring, enterprise SIEM integrations (Splunk, Elastic, Sentinel), and embeddable risk score badges.
