PCI DSS MCP
About
PCI DSS v4.0.1 static-analysis MCP server for Go payment service codebases. 12 scanners detect PAN/CVV exposure, weak crypto, missing audit logs, vulnerable deps, TLS misconfig, auth weaknesses, plus CycloneDX 1.6 SBOM generation. Each finding maps to the exact PCI requirement. A

Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
PCI DSS MCPCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install via Docker (mount your Go source read-only) or go install github.com/shyshlakov/pci-dss-mcp@v0.6.2. Add the corresponding command to your MCP client configuration (e.g., pci-dss-mcp or the docker run command).
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

pci-dss-mcp
Static-analysis MCP server that detects PCI DSS v4.0.1 violations in Go payment service codebases. Every finding maps to a specific PCI DSS requirement number. Built for developers, QSAs, and CI gates.What it detects
12 scanners over Go source + configs, each mapped to PCI DSS requirements: | Tool | Detects | PCI DSS | |------|---------|---------| |scan_pan_data | PAN/CVV storage, masking, zeroing | 3.3.1, 3.4.1, 3.5.1 |
| check_encryption | weak hashes, hardcoded keys, plain HTTP | 6.2.4, 4.2.1 |
| check_tls_config | InsecureSkipVerify, weak MinVersion, prohibited ciphers | 4.2.1 |
| check_secrets_in_configs | API keys, passwords, connection strings in configs | 8.6.2 |
| check_error_handling | payment-handler error disclosure | 6.2.4 |
| check_auth_strength | hardcoded passwords, weak password policy, missing MFA | 8.3.1, 8.3.6, 8.4.2 |
| audit_log_coverage | missing/unstructured audit logs in payment handlers | 10.2.1 |
| check_data_retention | CVV/PAN without TTL, incorrect memory zeroing | 3.2.1, 3.3.1 |
| check_payment_page_scripts | CSP, SRI, nonce, FIM for payment pages | 6.4.3, 11.6.1 |
| check_dependencies | vulnerable go.mod deps via OSV.dev (offline mode supported) | 6.3.3 |
| generate_sbom | CycloneDX 1.6 SBOM with SPDX licenses | 6.3.2 |
| triage_findings | AI-assisted prioritization + file:line enrichment | (orchestrator) |
Plus generate_compliance_report (full multi-scanner report), update_vulnerability_db (refresh OSV cache), explain_requirement (PCI DSS lookup).
Quick install (Docker)
``json
{
"mcpServers": {
"pci-dss-mcp": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run", "-i", "--rm",
"--mount", "type=bind,src=/path/to/your/go/src,dst=/path/to/your/go/src,readonly",

`
src= and dst= mirror the same absolute path so the container sees your code at the same path your host uses.
Quick install (Go)
`
go install github.com/shyshlakov/pci-dss-mcp@v0.6.2
`
Then add {"command": "pci-dss-mcp"} to your MCP client config.
What pci-dss-mcp is NOT
- Not a replacement for broad SAST (Semgrep, CodeQL, gosec for OWASP-Top-10)
- Not a replacement for LLM-based code review
- Not a QSA replacement: static analysis covers ~6% of PCI DSS v4.0.1; a Qualified Security Assessor must sign off on the rest
