g0Background check for AI agents
You wouldn't hire someone without a background check. Why would you deploy an AI agent without one?

What g0 does
Every background check answers three questions
You wouldn't hire someone without a background check.
Point g0 at any repo. It discovers every agent, maps every tool, and scores 12 security domains against OWASP, NIST, ISO, and EU AI Act. Every finding tells you what's wrong, where it is, and how to fix it.
$ g0 scan ./my-agentAnd that's not all
Everything else the background check covers.
Runtime enforcement
g0 proxy sits on live MCP traffic: deny, redact, coach, or alert on every tool call, with checksum-validated secrets and exact-data-match.
One-command guardrails
g0 protect installs proxy routing, known-malicious quarantine, and Claude Code hook enforcement. Dry-run first, fully undoable.
Red-team any agent
3,900+ adversarial payloads, a 4-level judge cascade, and CVSS scoring against a live agent, HTTP endpoint, or MCP server.
Signed AI-BOM
CycloneDX 1.6 inventory of every model, tool, agent, and MCP server. Content-addressed, so it diffs across releases.
Gate CI and PRs
SARIF, JUnit, and a sticky PR comment via the GitHub Action. Baseline gating fails only on findings new since your baseline.
Runs inside your IDE
g0 mcp serve turns g0 into an MCP server, so Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf can scan and vet servers from the chat.
g0 scans your code. Guard0 holds your whole org accountable.
