Overview

PageGuard MCP MCP server scans local project files and live website URLs for privacy-related technologies, cookies, data collection, and compliance gaps. Local scans inspect package.json, configuration files, and .env files without an API key or network requests. URL scans return risk scoring and gap analysis, while document generation creates AI-written compliance documents from a prior site scan. Use it when an AI coding assistant needs privacy checks during development or review.

Use cases

  • Scan a local project for tracking technologies and cookies
  • Check a live website for privacy compliance gaps
  • Generate privacy documents from a completed site scan
  • Review third-party processors before deployment

Key features

  • Local project privacy scanning
  • Live URL compliance scanning
  • Risk scoring and gap analysis
  • Detection of cookies and tracking technologies
  • AI-written compliance document generation
  • MCP tools for coding assistants

How PageGuard MCP works

What PageGuard MCP MCP server does

PageGuard MCP MCP server exposes PageGuard’s privacy compliance checks to MCP-compatible AI coding assistants. It covers two scanning paths: a local project inspection and a live website assessment. The local tool looks for privacy-relevant signals in a project’s package.json, configuration files, and .env files. Its report can include detected technologies, data types, cookies, and third-party processors.

The URL tool examines a deployed website and returns a compliance report with a risk score, detected technologies, and identified compliance gaps. A third tool generates AI-written legal compliance documents based on a scan. Supported document choices include privacy policies, terms of service, cookie policies, security guides, accessibility reports, schema markup, and app submission guides, depending on the selected document type.

How it works

The PageGuard MCP MCP server provides three tools over MCP:

  • pageguard_scan_local accepts an optional project path. If no path is supplied, it uses the current working directory. The local scan does not require an API key and does not make network requests.
  • pageguard_scan_url requires a complete website URL, such as https://example.com. It uses the PageGuard service to inspect the live site and returns a scan result containing a scan ID.
  • pageguard_generate_docs requires the scan ID from an earlier URL scan. Its optional documentType selects the document package to generate and defaults to bundle.

URL scanning and document generation require a PageGuard API key. Scanning itself is free, while generated documents consume credits according to the selected package or add-on.

Setup and configuration

Install the server through npx and register it in an MCP client configuration. Claude Code uses a project .mcp.json or a global MCP configuration. Cursor adds the same server definition under MCP Servers, and Windsurf accepts it in its MCP configuration.

A basic configuration starts the server with npx and the pageguard-mcp package. Set PAGEGUARD_API_KEY when using URL scans or document generation. It is optional for local scans. PAGEGUARD_API_URL can override the default API base URL, which is https://www.getpageguard.com.

Tools and capabilities

The local scan is suited to reviewing an in-development project before deployment, especially when its privacy signals are represented in dependencies, configuration, or environment files. The URL scan is suited to checking the behavior and compliance posture of an accessible site. Document generation uses a completed URL scan rather than accepting a site URL directly.

Available document selections include single, bundle, addon_security, addon_a11y, addon_schema, app_bundle, and submission_guide.

Limitations and notes

Local scanning and URL scanning produce reports; they do not automatically modify project files or website code. Document generation requires a scan ID from pageguard_scan_url, so it is not a standalone document-writing tool. Local scans work without credentials, but API-backed features require an account API key. The generated documents are described as AI-written legal compliance documents, so developers should determine whether additional legal review is appropriate for their use case.

Frequently Asked Questions about PageGuard MCP

PageGuard MCP is an MCP server that connects AI coding assistants to PageGuard privacy scanning. Its main tools scan local project files, inspect live website URLs for compliance issues, and generate legal documents from a previous URL scan. Local scanning needs no API key or network access; URL scanning and document generation use the PageGuard API.

Install it with an MCP configuration that runs `npx pageguard-mcp`. Claude Code can use a project or global MCP config, while Cursor and Windsurf provide MCP server configuration areas. The repository includes example server definitions for all three clients.

Yes, PageGuard MCP works with Cursor through its MCP Servers settings. Add a server entry that runs `npx` with `pageguard-mcp` as the argument, then configure `PAGEGUARD_API_KEY` if you need URL scanning or document generation.

URL scanning and document generation require `PAGEGUARD_API_KEY`; local scanning does not. The local tool reads the project’s package, configuration, and environment files without making network requests. `PAGEGUARD_API_URL` is optional and changes the API base URL.
