Inkog

Security companion for AI agent development in Claude, Cursor, and Claude Code.

Ask your AI pair-programmer to build an agent. Inkog checks it as you code — scanning for vulnerabilities, explaining findings in plain English, verifying AGENTS.md governance, and auditing agent-to-agent delegation. All inside the same conversation, no context switch.

Available in Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, ChatGPT, and any MCP-compatible client.

The Dev-Flow Loop

Inkog is designed to live inside the conversation where you build the agent — not as a post-hoc gate:

1. Ask Claude to build a piece of agent logic.
2. Ask Claude to scan it with Inkog — "Scan this with Inkog and show me any CRITICAL or HIGH findings."
3. Ask Claude to explain each finding in plain English — "Explain the top finding. What's the risk, and how do I fix it?"
4. Ask Claude to apply the fixes. Review the diff, approve, re-scan.
5. Before shipping, verify governance — "Verify my AGENTS.md against the code" and "Audit the agent-to-agent delegation".

Recommended prompts

• "Scan the current directory with Inkog and show me any CRITICAL or HIGH findings."
• "Explain the top finding in plain English. What's the risk, and how do I fix it?"
• "Verify my AGENTS.md against the code."
• "Audit the agent-to-agent delegation in this crew."
• "Run a compliance report and map the findings to EU AI Act Articles 12, 14, and 15."
• "Audit the MCP servers I'm integrating with."

When to Use Inkog

• Building an AI agent — Scan during development to catch infinite loops, prompt injection, and missing guardrails before they ship
• Adding security to CI/CD — Add inkog-io/inkog@v1 to GitHub Actions for automated security gates on every PR
• Preparing for EU AI Act — Generate compliance reports mapping your agent to Article 14, NIST AI RMF, OWASP LLM Top 10
• Reviewing agent code — Use from Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client to get security analysis while you code
• Auditing MCP servers — Check any MCP server for tool poisoning, privilege escalation, or data exfiltration before installing
• Verifying AGENTS.md — Validate that governance declarations match actual code behavior
• Building multi-agent systems — Detect delegation loops, privilege escalation, and unauthorized handoffs between agents

What Inkog Does

• Logic Flaw Detection: Find infinite loops, recursion risks, and missing exit conditions
• Security Analysis: Detect prompt injection paths, unconstrained tools, and data leakage risks
• AGENTS.md Governance: Validate that code behavior matches governance declarations
• Compliance Reporting: Generate reports for EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, OWASP LLM Top 10
• MCP Server Auditing: Audit any MCP server before installation
• Multi-Agent Analysis: Audit Agent-to-Agent communications for logic and security issues

  output   (optional) Output format: summary, detailed, sarif

Example: "Scan my LangChain agent for logic flaws"

inkog_verify_governance

Validate that AGENTS.md declarations match actual code behavior. This is Inkog's unique differentiator - no other tool does governance verification.

Arguments:
  path     (required) Path to directory containing AGENTS.md and agent code

Why Inkog?

Security in the Dev-Flow, Not After It

Most AI agent security tools run after the code is written. Inkog lives inside the conversation where you build the agent — so findings get fixed before they land in a PR, not three weeks later.

The Only Tool with AGENTS.md Verification

Inkog is the only tool that can validate your agent's governance declarations against its actual code behavior. This is essential for:

• EU AI Act Article 14 compliance (human oversight)
• Enterprise governance requirements
• Preventing governance drift as code evolves

Purpose-Built for AI Agents

Unlike traditional code scanners (Snyk, Semgrep, SonarQube), Inkog understands AI-specific issues:

• Infinite loops and recursion risks
• Prompt injection paths
• Unconstrained tool access
• Missing exit conditions
• Cross-tenant data leakage

Multi-Framework Support

Inkog's Universal IR (Intermediate Representation) works with any agent framework. Add one integration, get analysis for all frameworks.
