    • Brief introduction to security challenges in MCP server environments
  2. Current State of the Art
    • Git for version control systems
    • Gap identification: lack of specialized MCP server security tools
    • Comparison with traditional API security approaches
    • Limitations of current solutions when applied to MCP servers
  3. Motivation
    • Growing adoption of MCP servers in development workflows
    • Unique security challenges posed by MCP architecture
    • Need for specialized security tooling
  4. Ethical Implications
    • Privacy considerations in MCP server interactions
    • Responsibility in securing developer-AI communications
    • Balancing security with accessibility and usability
    • Ethical considerations for AI-assisted development
