Sonatype Guide is automatable through its MCP server
Sonatype · saas · developer-toolsdevsecops
Sonatype Guide is automatable today through its hosted MCP server. guide.sonatype.com/mcp and the sonatype repository document https://mcp.guide.sonatype.com/mcp with Authorization Bearer and a personal API token from guide.sonatype.com. The README lists three tools: getComponentVersion, getLatestComponentVersion, and getRecommendedComponentVersions. They return vulnerability, license, and version guidance for a component. The repository's latest push was 14 January 2026. The Guide site still documented the same URL on 16 October 2026. The Guide API page says the API is REST for component and vulnerability search and shows a bearer call to https://api.guide.sonatype.com/users/me. It does not list the component routes on the page that was opened. Zapier, Make, Power Automate, and n8n were not opened. Computer-use viability is unassessed. The MCP server scores 6. The API scores 4. The MCP server is the best path because its three tools are the operations the public pages actually name.
Best path today: mcp · Overall automatability: 6/10
