Sn1per MCP Server: pentest, recon and attack surface scanning

io.github.1N3/sn1per-mcpv0.9.0Other

Run scoped, authorized Sn1per pentest, recon and attack surface scans from AI agents; read findings.

The current version, v0.9.0, was published to the official MCP registry on 2026-10-17. It is distributed as sn1per-mcp on PyPI, filed under Other by this index, and declares 11 environment variables. Removals and unreachable sources are measured across every server this index tracks, contract drift across the servers that answer in consecutive snapshots; the index's current counts put this record in context.

Using Sn1per MCP Server: pentest, recon and attack surface scanning in Claude, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Cline, or Zed?

MCP tool contracts can change remotely with no version bump. The mcpindex gate pins each contract and HOLDs the call when it drifts-before your agent acts. Zero credentials. This is not the package install for this server itself (use Install this server for that).

Limits of this verdict
  • - Semantic screen only - the deterministic conformance probe has not run on this server
  • - Confidence is reported but not yet calibrated (v1)
  • - Screen reads the tool description, not the live behavior
  • - advisory
  • - registry description only no input schema
  • - screen model 8b

Semantic screen: an LLM judge reads the tool description for hidden instructions (status PARTIAL). A pass means the description is not lying, not that the tool is safe: a high-capability tool with an honest description still warrants caution. The deterministic conformance probe has not been run on this server yet, so the screen here is semantic-only. Posture: advisory. Confidences are reported but not yet calibrated (calibrated=false at v1). Full verdict history is not shown on this page.

Own this server? Test a description on the public screen → It is a separate check from the verdict above, so the two can differ.

That verdict was true at screening time (snapshot 2026-10-19).

Contracts can change after screening, with no version bump. The gate pins Sn1per MCP Server: pentest, recon and attack surface scanning’s tool contracts on first sight and holds any silent change before your agent acts - the check that keeps being true on Tuesday.

Cite this record

People vet a server before wiring it in. One line on your project site or docs answers that with an independent record: screening verdict, registry provenance, contract drift history. It stays current as new screens and drift events land.

Set to true to offer scan modes that run brute force, exploitation or injection testing. Off by default.

SNIPER_MCP_ENABLE_DESTRUCTIVE

Set to true to add the workspace delete and export tools; they ask the human to confirm. Off by default.

SNIPER_MCP_REDACT

Redaction of secrets in results. On by default; turn off only with a local model when raw values are required.
