Kirin keeps your agent from misbehaving.

It validates connections and blocks unsafe behavior in real time, inspecting dependencies, extensions, and MCP connections and enforcing policy inline, before the agent acts, so you code fast and safe.

The risks Kirin mitigates

Environment integrity

AI assistants can slip in hallucinated packages. Kirin flags malicious code before it threatens developer environments.

Sensitive data

Prompt injections and oversharing risk exposing secrets. Kirin automatically redacts and guards sensitive data inside your agent.

Catch compromised MCP servers before they compromise your organization

Kirin inspects your MCP connections in real time, flagging misconfigurations, unauthorized access, and malicious activity before they put your organization at risk.

Stop vulnerable or malicious plugins at the source

Kirin continuously monitors IDE extensions and plugins, detecting vulnerabilities and blocking untrusted or risky components before they impact your workflow.

Frequently asked questions

They connect to MCP servers, install plugins, and pull packages, all of which can be exploited if unmonitored.

By validating MCP servers and extensions, scanning dependencies, and blocking unsafe actions in real time inside the agent.

No. Kirin applies policies invisibly, surfacing clear, actionable fixes without interrupting developer workflows.

Central dashboards track configuration drift, blocked actions, and vulnerabilities, turning assistant adoption into a governed process.
