Shipcheck

npm version ci MCP Registry Shipcheck Action

MCP server that lets AI coding agents run Shipcheck on local JavaScript and TypeScript repositories.

Shipcheck scans AI-built apps for launch risks such as exposed private-looking env vars, unsigned Stripe webhooks, missing Supabase/Firebase rule evidence, debug routes, missing AI usage guardrails, missing CI, loose dependencies, and thin release docs.
