+# lazaretto-mcp
+
+An [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server that lets an agent verify a
+skill, tool, or package before it installs it. It is a thin front end for the
+[Lazaretto](https://lazaretto.dev) API. It ships no detection logic and does
+nothing but make HTTPS requests, so it is easy to audit.
+
+## Tools
+
+### `check_lockfile` (free, no API key)
+
+Checks every exactly-pinned dependency in your lockfile against published
+malicious-package advisories. Reads `package-lock.json`, `yarn.lock`, or
+`pnpm-lock.yaml` from the working directory, so the agent never has to paste a
+lockfile through its context. One call covers the whole tree.
+
+An empty `malicious` list is an all-clear only when `unverified` is also empty.
+
+
+- **`known_bad_lookup`**: free, no key. Is a sha256 content hash a known-bad
+  artifact? Exact-hash match against an indicator store refreshed daily.
+- **`scan_artifact`**: fetches a target (npm package, GitHub repo, ClawHub
+  skill, raw URL, or inline text) without running it and returns a deterministic
+  verdict (`malicious`, `flagged`, `clear`, `error`) with evidence. A full scan
+  needs prepaid credits (set an `X-API-Key` header). Buy them at
+  https://lazaretto.dev/#pricing.
+
+Reports are signals with evidence, not a warranty. `clear` means no known-bad
+match and no rule fired. It is not a statement about risk.
+
+## Use it (hosted, zero install)
+
+The server is hosted at `https://lazaretto.dev/mcp`. Add it to any MCP client
+that supports remote (Streamable HTTP) servers. Nothing to install, no local
+process.
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "lazaretto": {
+      "url": "https://lazaretto.dev/mcp",
+      "headers": {
+        "X-API-Key": "your-prepaid-key (optional; known_bad_lookup is free)"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`known_bad_lookup` works with no key. `scan_artifact` needs credits: buy a bundle
+at https://lazaretto.dev/#pricing (an agent can also do this itself over x402 at
+`POST https://lazaretto.dev/v1/credits/topup`).
+
+## Self-host the stdio server (optional)
+
+If you would rather run it locally over stdio instead of the hosted URL:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/jamesdfinance-dev/lazaretto-mcp
+cd lazaretto-mcp && npm install
+LAZARETTO_API_KEY=your-key node index.mjs
+```
+
+`LAZARETTO_BASE_URL` overrides the API host (default `https://lazaretto.dev`).
+
+## License
+
+MIT. The Lazaretto service and its detection engine are separate and proprietary.
