About Sentrik

Sentrik is a governance CLI and dashboard for teams using AI coding agents. It scans commits against security and compliance rules, gates failing changes, and produces audit evidence.

Key features

  1. 01Scan code and dependency vulnerabilities
  2. 02Gate changes against standards
  3. 03Detect hardcoded secrets
  4. 04Generate SBOMs and audit evidence
  5. 05View findings and quality scores

Use cases

  1. 01Block failing changes in CI
  2. 02Check AI-generated code for security issues
  3. 03Prepare evidence for compliance audits

MCP support

Sentrik can run as an MCP server via `sentrik mcp-server`, giving AI coding agents access to compliance rules, scan results, and remediation guidance.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config

}
}
}
}

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

What is Sentrik?

Sentrik is a CLI + dashboard that enforces coding standards, compliance rules, and security policies on every commit. Built for teams using AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) where code is generated faster than humans can review it.

The problem: AI agents write code that works but may violate security policies, compliance requirements, or architectural standards. Nobody catches it until audit time.

The solution: Sentrik scans every change against regulatory standards (OWASP, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, FDA IEC 62304, and more), gates PRs that fail, and generates audit-ready evidence.

Install

pip install sentrik

Installing gives you the free tier immediately — 6 standards packs, 193 rules, no license key or sign-up. Paid tiers are activated with a license key from [email protected].

Quick Start

# 1. Initialize your project (auto-detects language, frameworks, CI)
sentrik init

# 2. Scan your code
sentrik scan

# 3. Enforce the gate in CI (exit 1 on failure)
sentrik gate

# 4. Launch the dashboard
sentrik dashboard

Free Tier (forever, no credit card)

Sentrik includes 6 standards packs with 193 rules for free:

PackRulesWhat it catches
OWASP Top 1069SQL injection, XSS, auth flaws, SSRF, and more
SOC 230Trust services criteria for security & availability
Python Security18eval/exec, pickle, subprocess, Django/Flask vulns
Go Security15Injection, crypto misuse, unsafe, concurrency bugs
Supply Chain Security26SLSA, SBOM, dependency integrity, AI tool supply chain
C/C++ Coding Standards35Modern C/C++ safety and security practices

Plus built-in commands at every tier:

  • sentrik scan / sentrik gate - Scan and enforce

CI/CD Integration

GitHub Actions (Marketplace)
# .github/workflows/sentrik.yml
name: Sentrik Gate
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  gate:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - uses: maxgerhardson/sentrik-community@v1

That's it — one line. The action auto-detects PR context, runs the gate, uploads SARIF to GitHub Code Scanning, and attaches the findings report as an artifact.

With options:

      - uses: maxgerhardson/sentrik-community@v1
        with:
          packs: "owasp-top-10,soc2,supply-chain-security"
          fail-on: "critical,high"
          license-key: ${{ secrets.SENTRIK_LICENSE_KEY }}

Using outputs:

      - uses: maxgerhardson/sentrik-community@v1
        id: sentrik
      - run: echo "Found ${{ steps.sentrik.outputs.findings-count }} findings"

AI Agent Integration

Sentrik works as an MCP server for AI coding agents:

# Start MCP server for Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code
sentrik mcp-server

The MCP server gives AI agents real-time access to compliance rules, scan results, and remediation guidance — so they write compliant code from the start.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
