SonarQube for AI coding agents
Testing & code quality · www.sonarsource.com
Official Anthropic-marketplace plugin with 10 skills (no bundled MCP server).
Automatically enforce SonarQube code quality and security in the agent coding loop — 7,000+ rules, secrets scanning, agentic analysis, and quality gates across 40+ languages. PostToolUse hooks run analysis after every file edit. Pre-tool secrets scanning prevents 450+ patterns from reaching the LLM. Slash commands give on-demand access to quality gate status, coverage, duplication, and dependency risks. Includes SonarQube CLI, MCP Server, skills, hooks, and slash commands.

Setup by agent
/plugin install sonarqube@claude-plugins-officialWe haven't verified a OpenAI Codex setup for SonarQube yet. If the vendor documents an MCP server, the MCP config generator gives you the right ~/.codex/config.toml (user) format. Config locations: Codex setup.
We haven't verified a Cursor setup for SonarQube yet. If the vendor documents an MCP server, the MCP config generator gives you the right .cursor/mcp.json (project) format. Config locations: Cursor setup.
We haven't verified a GitHub Copilot setup for SonarQube yet. If the vendor documents an MCP server, the MCP config generator gives you the right .vscode/mcp.json (workspace) format. Config locations: Copilot setup.
We haven't verified a Google Antigravity setup for SonarQube yet. If the vendor documents an MCP server, the MCP config generator gives you the right ~/.gemini/config/mcp_config.json (global) format. Config locations: Antigravity setup.
