Brain Snyk Trivy CI

Configure Snyk + Trivy CI vulnerability scanning for Brain MCP servers, customer…

A ready-to-deploy CI security setup that pairs Snyk for dependency scanning with Trivy for container, IaC, and filesystem scanning, both wired into GitHub Actions with SARIF upload to the Security tab. It enforces severity thresholds so CRITICAL and HIGH vulnerabilities block the build, while keeping a disciplined ignore policy with mandatory expiry dates. The result: no vulnerable dependency or container image ships to production.

Shipping a CRITICAL CVE should be physically impossible, not merely discouraged. These six moves install Snyk and Trivy as hard merge gates, with severity discipline and expiring ignore entries so the wall never rots.

  1. Stands up two GitHub Actions workflows: a Snyk SCA job on pull request, push to main and a weekly Monday cron (so new CVEs in already merged code still get caught), and a Trivy job scanning filesystem, container image and IaC misconfig with a daily drift cron.
  2. Hardens the workflows themselves against supply chain attacks while building them: npm ci --ignore-scripts so postinstall malware never executes in CI, and action versions pinned to exact releases, never @main.
  3. Enforces the Pareto severity policy: CRITICAL and HIGH fail the build hard, MEDIUM becomes a warning comment, LOW and INFO go to the report only, so developers are never desensitized by 500 noise findings.
  4. Uploads SARIF results to the GitHub Security tab from both scanners, then posts a PR comment with a severity table, the top findings tagged by STRIDE category and concrete remediation steps.
  5. Manages false positives with discipline instead of silence: every .snyk or .trivyignore entry needs a CVE ID, a one line reason, an owner and an expiry of 90 days maximum, after which the finding fails the build again automatically.
  6. Locks the gate shut: branch protection requires both scan jobs to pass before merge, and the setup is verified by intentionally adding a known vulnerable dependency and watching the PR fail.

Who it's for

This wasn't forged for everyone.

  • Not for you if you'd rather rent a tool than own one.
  • Not for you if you want someone else to run your stack.
  • Not for you if you're happy guessing.
Still here? Good.

DevOps and security engineers who want an automated, layered CI gate that blocks vulnerable dependencies and container images before they reach production.

then this was forged for you.

Questions · still in the air

Catch what's on your mind.

the air is clear. nothing between you and the forge.
catch a spark: the forge will answer

  1. Is this tied to GitHub Actions, or can I run it in another CI?

    The wiring assumes GitHub Actions with SARIF upload to the Security tab. Snyk and Trivy themselves are portable scanners, but the ready-to-deploy gate as shipped is built for GitHub's pipeline, not GitLab or Jenkins out of the box.

  2. Two scanners sounds like double the alerts. Won't this bury me in noise?

    They don't overlap: Snyk handles dependencies while Trivy covers containers, IaC, and filesystem, so it's coverage, not duplication. Severity thresholds gate the build so only CRITICAL and HIGH stop a deploy, keeping the rest as visibility rather than blockers.

  3. If the build passes this gate, is my application actually secure?

    No: it scans known-CVE dependencies and your container and IaC layers, not your own application logic. A clean pass means no flagged vulnerable packages or images; bugs in the code you wrote are a separate gate entirely.

  4. How is it delivered?

    By email right after purchase: ready to run, downloaded instantly, no setup wait.

  5. One-time or subscription?

    A one-time purchase; no subscription or hidden fees. VAT (20%) is included.

  6. Can I get a refund?

    As a digital product, it can’t be refunded once downloaded. That’s why we show exactly what’s inside and who it’s for, right here.
