New scanner checks MCP agent servers for security flaws

A new tool has been developed to scan Multi-Agent Conversation Protocol (MCP) servers for security vulnerabilities before installation. The scanner, available at agentgraph.co, analyzes GitHub repositories for issues like hardcoded secrets, unsafe code execution, and dependency risks.
