From the README

# MCP-Shield

MCP-Shield scans your installed MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers and detects vulnerabilities like tool poisoning attacks, exfiltration channels and cross-origin escalations.

## Usage

Run default scan:

```bash
npx mcp-shield
```

With Claude API key for enhanced analysis:

```bash
npx mcp-shield --claude-api-key YOUR_API_KEY
```

With a specific config file:

```bash
npx mcp-shield --path ~/path/to/config.json
```

With the `--identify-as` flag:

```bash
npx mcp-shield --identify-as claude-desktop
```

Get help:

```bash
npx mcp-shield -h
```

With a safe list of servers to exclude from scanning:

```bash
npx mcp-shield --safe-list "github,slack,whatsapp"
```

**Options:**

- `--path <path>`: Scan a specific path for MCP configuration files (`.mcp/*.json`, `claude_desktop_config.json`). If omitted, scans standard locations (`~/.config/.mcp`, `~/Library/Application Support/Claude`, `~/.continue`).
- `--claude-api-key <key>`: (Optional) Provide an Anthropic Claude API
