step-security / dev-machine-guard

Scan your dev machine for AI agents, MCP servers, IDE extensions, and suspicious packages - in seconds.

Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does

What it does

Developer machines are the new attack surface. They hold high-value assets — GitHub tokens, cloud credentials, SSH keys — and routinely execute untrusted code through dependencies and AI-powered tools. Recent supply chain attacks have shown that malicious VS Code extensions can steal credentials, rogue MCP servers can access your codebase, and compromised npm packages can exfiltrate secrets.
