Built for one thing. Does it well.

Aguara detects security issues in AI agent skills and MCP server configurations using static analysis. No network calls. No dependencies. Just rules and code.

100% Local

Single Go binary. No API keys, no cloud, no LLM. Your code never leaves your machine.

NLP Analysis

Goldmark AST parsing catches obfuscated attacks that regex-only tools miss. Markdown structure analysis and keyword classification.

Taint Tracking

Source-to-sink flow analysis detects data exfiltration paths across skill instructions and tool definitions.

YAML Rules

138+ built-in rules. Extensible with custom YAML. Override severity, disable rules, add your own detection patterns.

CI/CD Native

GitHub Actions and GitLab CI. SARIF output for code scanning alerts. Fail builds on severity threshold.

Deterministic

Same input, same output. Every time. No probabilistic scoring, no LLM variance. Reproducible results you can trust in CI.

Scan. Detect. Fix.

One command to scan your skills directory. Findings are ranked by severity with file locations and rule references.
