About Model Context Protocol (MCP)

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI assistants to securely access external tools and data sources. It provides a standardized way for AI models to interact with various services while maintaining security and control.

MCP servers act as bridges between AI assistants and external APIs, databases, or services. They handle authentication, data formatting, and provide a consistent interface for AI models to access external functionality.

Key Benefits:

  • Secure and controlled access to external tools
  • Standardized interface across different AI assistants
  • No need to share API keys with AI providers
  • Local execution for sensitive operations

Installation & Configuration

1
Add to your MCP configuration

Add the following configuration to your MCP settings file (usually mcp-config.json):

mcp-config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "semgrep": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "semgrep-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "SEMGREP_APP_TOKEN": "<your-semgrep-app-token>"
      }
    }
  }
}

2
Restart your AI editor

After adding the configuration, restart your AI-powered code editor to load the new MCP server.

Verification

Once installed, you can verify the server is running by checking your editor's MCP status or by asking your AI assistant to use the Semgrep functionality.

Usage Examples

Once installed, you can interact with Semgrep through your AI assistant. Here are some example prompts:

Example prompts:

  • "Help me search for information about..."
  • "Can you access my semgrep and run a security scan?"
  • "Please check the current status in Semgrep."
