Side-by-Side Model Context Protocol Comparison
Codeinspectus vs Agent Bom
In-depth architectural comparison of the Codeinspectus and Agent Bom MCP servers. Compare execution transports, security boundaries, tool capabilities, quality scores, and ready-to-paste client installation snippets for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.
At a Glance & Executive Verdict
Codeinspectus
Security · Local stdio
Quality: 68/100 (Great) | Auth: No auth required
Agent Bom
Security · Local stdio
Quality: 56/100 (Good) | Auth: No auth required
Verdict Summary: Choose Codeinspectus if you need specialized Security tools running via a local process. Choose Agent Bom if your workspace requires Security integration with local subprocess execution. Both servers can be configured concurrently in your client's mcpServers manifest.
Which MCP Server Should You Choose?
Choose Codeinspectus when:
You need dedicated capabilities in the Security domain.
You prefer local stdio subprocess transport architecture.
Your security boundary fits: No auth required (Free / Open Source).
Local-first, zero-egress security scanner for AI-generated / "vibe-coded" JS/TS. Bundles Opengrep, Gitleaks & Trivy behind one CWE-keyed schema and adds AI-code-specific checks (client-side secret exposure, Supabase RLS, prompt-injection & LLM-output XSS sinks). No account, no telemetry.
AI supply chain security scanner with 18 MCP tools. Auto-discovers 20 MCP clients, scans dependencies for CVEs (OSV/NVD/EPSS/CISA KEV), maps blast radius from vulnerabilities to exposed credentials and tools, runs CIS benchmarks, generates CycloneDX/SPDX SBOMs, and enforces compliance across OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS, NIST AI RMF, and EU AI Act.

Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Codeinspectus Tools (7)
codeinspectus_scan
Run a full local security scan of a path: managed engines (Opengrep SAST, Gitleaks secrets, Trivy SCA/IaC/license), CodeInspectus's offline native Pub SCA, plus AI-code-specific checks (client-side secret exposure, Supabase RLS/inverted-auth, prompt-injection sinks, API-boundary failures, and explicit runtime-control misconfiguration). Returns CWE-keyed findings with fix recommendations, detected repository technologies, explicit native-pack execution counts, compliance tags, and three-state repository evidence for supported runtime controls. Also returns the V3 repository-trust contract with deterministic V3.1 source-integrity evidence for bidi controls, hidden/default-ignorable characters, Unicode tag and variation-selector payloads, and bounded mixed-script confusables. V3.2 additionally audits explicit AI attribution in source/git/media metadata and validates supported local C2PA assets with the official optional Content Authenticity Initiative library. Remote manifests and revocation endpoints are never fetched. Statistical-watermark detection remains explicitly unavailable. Fully offline — zero network egress at scan time. Never writes to your code or repo.
codeinspectus_setup
Inspect external-engine health and exact platform download sizes, save declined choices, or install selected Opengrep/Gitleaks/Trivy components after explicit confirmation. Plan is offline. Install writes only to ~/.codeinspectus, verifies immutable pins/publisher provenance, and never modifies the target repository.
codeinspectus_rescan
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Codeinspectus is categorized under Security and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Agent Bom belongs to Security using local stdio subprocess. Select Codeinspectus when you need capabilities focused on security and Agent Bom when you require tools for security.
Re-run a scan after fixes were applied and diff against a prior scan_id (or the most recent scan of the same path). Reports which findings are resolved, which remain, and which were newly introduced, plus fresh technology and native-pack execution coverage. Repository-trust artifacts are diffed separately with fail-closed resolved, remaining, introduced and not-rechecked states. Use this to verify approved fixes. Never writes to your code or repo.
codeinspectus_compliance_report
Produce a per-framework code-level control-coverage view for a prior scan (NIST CSF 2.0, ISO 27001:2022, SOC 2, CIS v8.1, Essential Eight, OWASP Web/LLM). Reports 'X of N code-visible controls have findings' with the code-visible subset as the explicit denominator. This is NOT a compliance audit, certification, or attestation — code-level evidence only.
codeinspectus_explain_finding
Return a deep explanation and full remediation plan for a single finding id from a prior scan: what the weakness is, why it matters, concrete fix steps, and references.
codeinspectus_generate_sbom
Generate a CycloneDX or SPDX SBOM for the target project using Trivy plus the first-party offline Pub lockfile inventory, with native Pub fallback when Trivy is unavailable. Writes the SBOM file to the chosen output path and returns its location and component count. Offline.
codeinspectus_list_rules
List the active detectors and engine versions, the CodeInspectus detection-database version and date, Trivy vulnerability-DB freshness, bundled Pub advisory-database provenance/freshness, and the custom CodeInspectus AI-code rules and native detector packs currently shipped.
Agent Bom Tools (6)
Auto-discovers 20 MCP clients and supports 15 package ecosystems
Detects CVEs using OSV, NVD, EPSS, and CISA KEV databases
Maps blast radius from vulnerabilities to exposed credentials and tools
Runs CIS benchmarks and compliance checks across 16 compliance surfaces
Generates CycloneDX and SPDX SBOM formats
Provides a unified graph model correlating static and runtime evidence
