Documentation
Full READMEVanta Plugin for Claude Code
This repository provides an official Claude Code plugin that connects Claude to the [Vanta MCP Server](https://help.vanta.com/en/articles/14094979-connecting-to-vanta-mcp), giving you access to Vanta's security and compliance tools directly inside your Claude Code sessions.
[!NOTE] Vanta’s remote MCP server is currently in beta and released to all customers. Before connecting, confirm the following: Vanta role: You must be a Vanta Admin. The MCP server is not currently accessible to non-Admin users. Access for non-admin users is coming soon.
Features
Vanta MCP Server
Claude Code automatically connects to Vanta's hosted MCP server for your region:
# US
https://mcp.vanta.com/mcp
# EU
https://mcp.eu.vanta.com/mcp
# Aus
https://mcp.aus.vanta.com/mcpThis gives Claude tools to:
- Remediate failing tests — list failing compliance tests, inspect which entities are out of scope, and get the context needed to fix them
- Manage controls — browse controls and their framework mappings, list associated tests, and access linked evidence documents
- Assess vendor risk — review vendors, run security assessments, manage risk attributes, and track compliance documentation
- Track vulnerabilities — surface vulnerable assets, and monitor remediation progress
- Govern policies — list, download, and upload policy documents across your compliance program
- Analyze compliance gaps — enumerate framework requirements and identify coverage gaps across SOC 2, ISO 27001, and more
Slash Commands
| Command | Description | | ---------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | | /vanta:fix-test <test-id or URL> | Fix a failing test by generating IaC changes and opening a PR | | /vanta:list-tests | Show failing tests prioritized by what you can fix from this repo |
