+ # Hound MCP
2
+
3
+ **The dependency bloodhound for AI coding agents.**
4
+
5
+ Hound is a free, open-source MCP server that gives AI coding agents a nose for supply chain security. It scans packages for vulnerabilities, checks licenses, inspects dependency trees, and detects typosquatting — with **zero API keys, zero config, and zero cost**.

12
+
13
+ ## Why Hound?
14
+
15
+ Most security tools require accounts, API keys, or paid plans. Hound uses only two fully free, unauthenticated public APIs:
16
+
17
+ - **[deps.dev](https://deps.dev)** (Google Open Source Insights) — package metadata, dependency trees, licenses, OpenSSF Scorecard
18
+ - **[OSV](https://osv.dev)** (Google Open Source Vulnerabilities) — CVEs, GHSAs, fix versions
19
+
20
+ No sign-up. No config. Just install and go.

24
+ ## Quickstart
25
+
26
+ ### Claude Code
27
+
28
+ ```bash
29
+ claude mcp add hound -- npx -y hound-mcp

32
+ ### Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf
33
+
34
+ Add to your MCP config file:
35
+
36
+ ```json
37
+ {
38
+ "mcpServers": {
39
+ "hound": {
40
+ "command": "npx",
41
+ "args": ["-y", "hound-mcp"]
42
+ }
43
+ }
44
+ }
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ **Config file locations:**
48
+
49
+ - Claude Desktop (macOS): `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
50
+ - Cursor: `~/.cursor/mcp.json`
51
+ - Windsurf: `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json`
52

67
+ ```
68
+
69
+ ---
70
+
71
+ ## Tools
72
+
73
+ Hound registers 6 tools in your MCP client.
74
+
75
+ ### `hound_vulns`
76
+
77
+ List all known vulnerabilities for a package version, grouped by severity with fix versions.
78
+
79
+ ```text
80
+ hound_vulns(name: "express", version: "4.18.2", ecosystem: "npm")
81
+ ```
82
+
83
+ ### `hound_inspect`
84
+
85
+ Comprehensive package profile — licenses, vulnerabilities, OpenSSF Scorecard, GitHub stars, and dependency count in one call.
86
+
87
+ ```text
88
+ hound_inspect(name: "lodash", version: "4.17.21", ecosystem: "npm")
89
+ ```
90
+
91
+ ### `hound_tree`
92
+
93
+ Full resolved dependency tree including all transitive dependencies, with depth and relation type.
94
+
95
+ ```text
96
+ hound_tree(name: "next", version: "14.2.0", ecosystem: "npm", maxDepth: 3)
97
+ ```
98
+
99
+ ### `hound_advisories`
100
+
101
+ Full advisory details by ID — works with GHSA, CVE, and OSV IDs.
102
+
103
+ ```text
104
+ hound_advisories(id: "GHSA-rv95-896h-c2vc")
105
+ hound_advisories(id: "CVE-2024-29041")
106
+ ```
107
+
108
+ ### `hound_typosquat`
109
+
110
+ Generates likely typo variants of a package name and checks which ones exist in the registry — surfaces potential typosquatting attacks.
111
+
112
+ ```text
113
+ hound_typosquat(name: "lodash", ecosystem: "npm")
114
+ ```
115
+
116
+ ### `hound_popular`
117
+
118
+ Scan a list of popular (or user-specified) packages for known vulnerabilities. Great for a quick ecosystem health check.
119
+
120
+ ```text
121
+ hound_popular(ecosystem: "npm")
122
+ hound_popular(ecosystem: "pypi", packages: ["requests", "flask", "django"])
123
+ ```
