Compare these two MCP servers to find which one fits your needs best.

CrowdStrike Falcon

by CrowdStrike

✓ Official
Semgrep MCP Server

by Semgrep

✓ Official
Description
Connects AI agents with the CrowdStrike Falcon platform for intelligent security analysis.
The official Semgrep MCP server lets an AI assistant run Semgrep — a fast, deterministic static analysis engine that semantically understands 30+ languages and ships over 5,000 security rules — directly against the code it is writing or reviewing, so you can "secure your vibe coding" without leaving Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or Windsurf. It exposes a focused tool surface: `security_check` scans code for vulnerabilities, `semgrep_scan` runs a scan with a given rule config, `semgrep_scan_with_custom_rule` applies a custom Semgrep rule you supply inline, `get_abstract_syntax_tree` returns the AST of a snippet so an agent can reason about code structure, `supported_languages` lists the languages Semgrep can parse, and `semgrep_rule_schema` fetches the latest rule JSON Schema for writing new rules. With a Semgrep AppSec Platform login and token, `semgrep_findings` pulls findings from your organization's cloud account. The server runs three ways — as a Python package via `uvx semgrep-mcp` (PyPI: semgrep-mcp), as a Docker container `ghcr.io/semgrep/mcp`, or against Semgrep's hosted endpoint at mcp.semgrep.ai — and supports stdio, Streamable HTTP, and SSE transports. Note: the standalone semgrep/mcp repository is now deprecated, with ongoing development folded into the main `semgrep` binary (semgrep/semgrep, under cli/src/semgrep/mcp), so future updates ship through the official Semgrep CLI itself.
