From the repository
First, install the kubescape CLI and uv. Then add the following JSON configuration to your MCP settings in Claude Desktop or Cursor, adjusting the directory path to point to your local copy of the server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"kubescapeserver": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["--directory", "/Users/haji/mcp-servers/kubescapeserver", "run", "server.py"]
}
}
}
After configuration, the server’s tools become available and can be invoked via prompts (e.g., “scan image nginx”).
