Agentaegis MCP Overview

The astafford8488/agentaegis-mcp MCP server gives AI agents tools for cybersecurity scans, compliance assessments, code analysis, threat intelligence, identity reviews, and trust checks. It exposes local stdio and remote Streamable HTTP transports, wrapping engines such as nmap, Nuclei, sslyze, Semgrep, trufflehog, and trivy alongside external security APIs. Reach for it when an agent needs to assess an MCP plugin, skill, endpoint, application, network, repository, or compliance framework before taking action. Remote calls use API-key authentication or x402 USDC payments, while a free discovery tier provides account and history-related tools.
