Microsoft GitHub Advisory MCP Server is an MCP server that queries GitHub Security Advisories from a locally cloned advisory database. It helps coding agents find advisories, list them, and retrieve specific records. The catalogue entries operate this server through its MCP tools.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/microsoft/github-advisory-mcpInstalling this writes the configuration, not the program: `node` runs a file from the repository, so clone it first and make the path in the command match where you put it.

A badge with what this costs and how it scanned, read live from this page, so it follows the numbers instead of freezing them. Markdown for a README, HTML for a documentation site or a project page.

advisory scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
{
"advisory": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"${workspaceFolder}/dist/index.js"
],
"type": "stdio",
"env": {
"ADVISORY_REPO_PATH": "${workspaceFolder}/external/advisory-database",
"ADVISORY_API_PORT": "18025"
}
}
}What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

advisory is an MCP server published in the GitHub repository microsoft/github-advisory-mcp (9 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. Its token cost is not measured: an MCP server costs its tool schemas, not its config file. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-14.
