# Ship Safe CLI

> Open-source AI agent security scanner for developers. Ship Safe CLI finds risky code, AI-agent vulnerabilities, MCP misconfigurations, prompt injection paths, RAG poisoning risks, secrets, dependency CVEs, and CI/CD supply-chain issues before they ship.

Ship Safe CLI, also called Ship Safe or `ship-safe`, is the developer security tool at shipsafe.sh and the npm package named `ship-safe`. It is not shipsafe.org and it is not a maritime-security product.

Ship Safe CLI is useful for teams building AI apps, agentic workflows, MCP servers, RAG systems, SaaS products, GitHub Actions pipelines, and applications that handle production credentials.

Current CLI baseline: v10.0.0. The Hermes coverage baseline is pinned to Hermes Agent v0.21.0 at an immutable upstream commit. Check the release notes for version-specific behavior before copying commands into CI.

## Quick Start

```bash
npx ship-safe
npx ship-safe audit .
npx ship-safe red-team . --gpt-red
npx ship-safe ci . --threshold 80 --sarif results.sarif
```

`red-team --gpt-red` runs AI agent red-team scenarios with DeepSeek, Kimi K3 / Moonshot, OpenAI-compatible providers, or an offline fallback when no provider key is configured.

Kimi support defaults to `kimi-k3` using `MOONSHOT_API_KEY` or `KIMI_API_KEY`. Use `npx ship-safe red-team . --gpt-red --provider kimi --model kimi-k3` for long-context AI-agent red teaming.

Use `npx ship-safe red-team . --gpt-red --provider kimi --model kimi-k3 --k3-long-context` to correlate agent docs, MCP/tool configs, package scripts, CI, deployment config, and prior findings in one bounded Kimi K3 pass.

Ship Safe v10.0.0 adds evidence-backed Hermes Agent investigation coverage, including plugin, adapter, terminal, ACP/TUI, cron lifecycle, and credential reachability checks. It also retains Kimi K3 / OpenAI-compatible tool-call security rules for dynamic tool loading from prompt context, missing tool allowlists, forced tool calls on untrusted input, and replayed tool results without the assistant tool-call message.
