## Description
Read-only Shipcheck launch-risk scans for authorized JS, TS, and MCP repos.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "shipcheck-mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","shipcheck-mcp"]
  }
}
```

[![shipcheck-mcp MCP server](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/TateLyman/shipcheck-mcp/badges/score.svg)](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/TateLyman/shipcheck-mcp)

MCP server that lets local MCP clients run [Shipcheck](https://www.npmjs.com/package/shipcheck-cli) on authorized JavaScript and TypeScript repositories.

Shipcheck scans apps and MCP servers for launch risks such as exposed private-looking env vars, unsigned Stripe webhooks, missing Supabase/Firebase rule evidence, debug routes, missing usage-cost guardrails, missing CI, loose dependencies, thin release docs, missing MCP smoke-test proof, undocumented STDIO execution boundaries, and undocumented remote MCP auth boundaries.

## Install

Run directly with `npx`:

```bash
npx --yes shipcheck-mcp
```

## MCP Config

Add this server to an MCP client that supports stdio servers:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "shipcheck": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["--yes", "--package", "shipcheck-mcp", "shipcheck-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

STDIO MCP client config launches a local command. Review the `command`, `args`, and any `env` values before running generated configs, keep the package source trusted, and prefer pinned package versions when a deployment needs repeatability.

## Tool

`scan_repository`

```json
{
  "root": ".",
  "format": "markdown",
  "failOn": "medium",
  "strict": true
}
```

Formats: `text`, `markdown`, `json`, or `sarif`.

Severities: `info`, `low`, `medium`, or `high`.

Shipcheck is defensive static analysis, not a penetration test. It reads local project files, does not modify the repository, does not execute project code, and does not require network access. Run it only on repos you own or are authorized to inspect.

## Development

```bash
npm install
npm run check
```
