Semgrep vs agnix
Semgrep is an MCP server published by docker. Marketplaces we read that list it: 1 (Docker MCP Catalog). agnix is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by agent-sh. Marketplaces we read that list it: 1 (Claude Code: claude-plugins-community). As of our marketplace pass on 2026-10-13.

Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
Semgrep
MCP server for using Semgrep to scan code for security vulnerabilities.
agnix
Lint agent configurations before they silently fail. 414 validation rules across Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Cline, Windsurf, Roo Code, Amp, and Kiro - validates CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, SKILL.md, hooks.json, MCP server configs, and plugin manifests. Auto-fix included for safe issues; SARIF output for GitHub Code Scanning. Distributed as CLI (npm + Cargo), official GitHub Action (`agent-sh/agnix`), and IDE extensions for VS Code, JetBrains, Neovim, and Zed. Rules sourced from official specs, academic research on agent prompt design, and real-world failure patterns from production deployments. Mentioned in awesome-claude-code.
