gitleaks-mcp

name	gitleaks-mcp
description	Use when a task needs the local `gitleaksScan`, `gitleaksScanContent`, or `gitleaksHelp` MCP tools to scan repositories, directories, or inline content for exposed secrets.

Gitleaks MCP

Tool Surface

• gitleaksScan(target_path, no_git=False, timeout_sec=300)
• gitleaksScanContent(content, timeout_sec=120)
• gitleaksHelp(timeout_sec=5)

Argument Guidance

• target_path: repository or directory to scan.
• no_git=True: scan raw files/directories instead of relying on Git history/repo handling.
• content: inline text for quick single-buffer scans.

Notes

• Prefer gitleaksScan for a real folder or repo.
• Prefer gitleaksScanContent for short pasted material or generated text.
• Findings are already masked by the wrapper, so use the structured result fields rather than asking for the raw secret.
