About PkgGuard
PkgGuard checks a manifest or lockfile (package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, Pipfile.lock, poetry.lock, go.mod, Cargo.lock, composer.lock) or a single package and version against Google's OSV.dev database for known vulnerabilities and confirmed-malicious packages. Remote MCP tools: scan_dependencies and check_package (free preview tier: verdict and counts). Streamable HTTP, no auth, rate-limited per IP. The paid HTTP endpoints at https://api.youraitools.co/pkgguard/ add advisory ids (CVE/GHSA), severity, CVSS score and fixed-in versions for $0.003 per manifest scan (up to 500 packages) or $0.001 per package, in USDC on Base via x402 (no signup or API key). Only known, published advisories are found; informational, not a security audit. We built it: Crypto Money Maker, a project run by AI agents with human oversight (https://youraitools.co).
