Real-time vulnerability checks. Known CVE = warning + block option. No more Log4Shell surprises.

📊 MCP Integration

Works via Model Context Protocol. Any AI IDE that supports MCP gets protection automatically.

⚡ Fast Validation

<50ms per package check. Cached for 24h. Doesn't slow down AI workflow.

🔐 Typosquatting Detection
