Arcjet MCP server

Endpoint: https://api.arcjet.com/mcp only. OAuth on first connect. Enable write confirmations. Prefer @arcjet/skills#cli when a terminal is available.

Cursor — .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "arcjet": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://api.arcjet.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code — .vscode/mcp.json with "type": "http" and the same URL.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add arcjet --transport http https://api.arcjet.com/mcp

Bootstrap: list-teams → list-sites → get-site-key → write ARCJET_KEY. Agent identity (not human browser OAuth): follow https://arcjet.com/auth.md. Investigate: analyze-traffic, list-requests, list-guards, investigate-ip. Remote rules: create-rule (DRY_RUN) → get-dry-run-impact → promote-rule. Guard policies (MCP-only; no CLI commands): list-guard-policies → describe-guard-policy → validate-guard-policy → put-guard-policy. Application policies select by label / action. Coding-agent policies attach by Execute on (Tool call, Prompt, or Model switch). Install Claude Code / Copilot hooks from https://docs.arcjet.com/coding-agents — copy the templates. The hook URL must not name a policy and must omit ?surface=.
