Best for
  • Security teams to monitor company-wide agent supply chain risk
  • Developers to quickly assess security of their MCP servers and skills
  • Evaluating third-party MCP configs in sandboxed environments
  • Engineering teams scaling AI coding agents while controlling spend
  • Platform teams that need auditable, rollback-aware agent execution records
  • Organizations using multiple agents (Claude, Codex, Gemini) under one governed flow
Not for
  • Users needing stable programmatic output (CLI output is experimental and may change)
  • Production workflows depending on specific CLI output fields
  • Scanning non-stdio MCP servers (only stdio is supported)
  • Developers who just want a simple code-completion helper without run governance
  • Teams unwilling to accept local JSONL run records with HMAC signing
  • Environments without a supported adapter (Claude/Codex/Gemini CLIs, direct provider, or verifier-only)
Required permissions
  • Requires SNYK_TOKEN environment variable to call Snyk API
  • Executes commands defined in MCP configurations (stdio server startup)
  • Reads local agent configuration files (e.g., ~/.claude/skills)
  • Read/write access to the configured repo root (writable scope restrictable via --allow-path/--deny-path)
  • Ability to invoke the chosen agent CLI (Claude/Codex/Gemini, etc.) and its underlying model account
  • Local disk writes for run records, receipts, and share outputs (share/run-receipt., etc.)
  • Execution of user-configured verifier commands (e.g. npm test)
Risks and side effects
  • Scanning MCP configurations executes their commands, posing risk of malicious code execution
  • Skills, app names, and tool descriptions are shared with Snyk (usage implies consent)
  • CLI output is experimental and subject to change
  • Large-scale API usage may result in account blocking
  • Verifier commands are executed; poorly chosen verifier commands carry security risk despite preflight policy checks
  • Cost and token figures may be estimates (labeled with provenance) and should not be treated as settled accounting
  • Receipt integrity must be verified before use as trustworthy evidence; missing rollback evidence is flagged as EVIDENCE_BOUNDARY
  • Policy defaults come from martin.config.yaml and can be overridden by CLI flags; misconfiguration can loosen safety boundaries
