Governance & visibility platform for MCP servers and AI agent connections.
Golf is a governance and visibility platform for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and AI coding agents operating within enterprise environments. It sits at the MCP layer between AI developer tools (such as Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Windsurf) and the data sources or services those tools connect to. IT and security teams deploy it to gain control over which MCP servers are running, who is connecting to what, and under what permissions. Core functions: - Enforce: Allows security teams to define and apply access policies at the MCP layer — controlling read vs. write permissions per MCP server, per team, per tool, and per data source — without requiring changes to developer workflows. - Discover: Automatically detects and classifies all MCP servers running in an environment, including shadow MCP servers that were deployed without formal approval. Produces an inventory catalog (approved, pending, shadow) that replaces manual tracking methods. - Audit: Logs every MCP connection with attribution, enabling security and compliance teams to answer questions about what is connected and who authorized it without manual reconstruction. Deployment options include on-premises, hybrid, and cloud, with the stated design goal that data does not leave the customer's environment. Setup involves connecting an identity provider and a SIEM, then deploying the MCP Control Plane. The platform targets IT and security teams at organizations where developers are actively using AI coding assistants with MCP integrations, and where governance of those connections has not been formally addressed.
