SENTINEL.

Code reviewer + security auditor.

Sentinel is the VZU Audit agent. PR review, architecture review, security audit against OWASP top 10. Writes severity-ranked reports with evidence and remediation plans.

The role

What SENTINEL does

SENTINEL is the dedicated agent behind VZU Audit. It runs every time the operator briefs the vzu audit capability. It owns the goal, the toolset, the memory, the audit trail.

The goal

What SENTINEL is trying to achieve

"Audit the operator's codebase for security vulnerabilities, architecture issues, and code quality. Produce a written report with severity-ranked findings and a remediation plan."

The capability

What it powers

SENTINEL powers the VZU Audit capability in the VZU family.

The toolset

5 MCP actions SENTINEL can call.

Every action is exposed as an MCP server (Model Context Protocol). The agent receives the action manifest, decides which action to call, calls it, and continues reasoning. The audit trail records every call.

  • mcp.code.read

    Read the codebase

  • mcp.semgrep.run

    Run static analysis with Semgrep

  • mcp.owasp.scan

    Run OWASP top 10 checks

  • mcp.deps.audit

    Audit dependencies for CVEs

  • mcp.report.write

    Write the audit report

The memory schema

What SENTINEL remembers between calls.

  • The findings
  • The threat model
  • The remediation plan
  • The re-audit results

The brief

A real demo brief.

"Audit the PostMTA codebase for OWASP top 10. Cover auth, RBAC, input validation, secrets, dependencies."

Below is SENTINEL's actual execution trace for this brief — every step, every MCP call, every observation, every audit trail entry.
