Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exposureguard": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "exposureguard_mcp.server"],
      "env": {
        "EXPOSUREGUARD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

If you installed as a package, you can also use:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exposureguard": {
      "command": "exposureguard-mcp",
      "env": {
        "EXPOSUREGUARD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Edit .cursor/mcp.json in your project root (or globally at ~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exposureguard": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "exposureguard_mcp.server"],
      "env": {
        "EXPOSUREGUARD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

    "exposureguard": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "exposureguard_mcp.server"],
      "env": {
        "EXPOSUREGUARD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Edit .vscode/mcp.json in your project:

{
  "servers": {
    "exposureguard": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "exposureguard_mcp.server"],
      "env": {
        "EXPOSUREGUARD_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

4. Usage Examples

Once connected, ask your AI assistant:

• "Scan example.com for security issues"
• "What's the security grade for cloudflare.com?"
• "Show me how to fix the security issues on my-site.com"
• "What third-party scripts does shopify.com load?"

Running Standalone

export EXPOSUREGUARD_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
python -m exposureguard_mcp.server

The server communicates over stdio using the MCP protocol — it's designed to be launched by an MCP client, not used interactively.

Rate Limits

Rate limits depend on your ExposureGuard plan. If you hit a 429 response, the server will return a message suggesting you upgrade at getexposureguard.com/pricing.
