Why Client-Side Scrubbing is Better

Native Stdio MCP Server

Plug @privacyscrubber/mcp-server directly into Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, or Cline config. AI agents invoke sanitization tools locally through JSON-RPC before context submission.

Production Log Debugging

Safely pass production server logs and SQL error dumps into Cursor Chat. PrivacyScrubber replaces IPv4/IPv6 addresses, JWT tokens, and user emails with consistent deterministic tokens.

Secret & Credential Masking

Prevents catastrophic credential leaks by catching AWS access keys, Stripe secret keys, and private SSH blocks before they enter LLM training or caching layers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the PrivacyScrubber MCP Server integrate with Cursor IDE?
Add "@privacyscrubber/mcp-server" to your cursor.json or cline_mcp_settings.json. The MCP server runs locally on your machine via stdio, exposing sanitize_text and detokenize_text tools that your AI agents use without any network transmission.
Is my codebase sent to external servers when using PrivacyScrubber MCP?
No. The PrivacyScrubber MCP server operates 100% locally on your machine using Node.js without any internet connection or telemetry. It is fully air-gapped and verified for offline development.
