LowerPlane exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and others interact with your compliance data securely.

Overview

The MCP server provides read access to your compliance platform through 17 tools covering:
  • Compliance — readiness scores, gaps, framework status
  • Controls — list and inspect controls with implementation status
  • Policies — browse policies, versions, approval status
  • Tests — view test results, schedules, pass/fail status
  • Risks — risk register entries with scores and ownership
  • Evidence — collected evidence inventory
  • Personnel — employee directory
  • Vendors — vendor list with risk levels
  • Integrations — connected integrations and sync status
  • Training — course catalog and completion
  • Tasks — compliance task assignments
  • Incidents — security incident tracking

Authentication

The MCP server authenticates using your LowerPlane API key. Generate one from Settings > API Keys.
Your API key grants the same access level as your organization. Treat it like a password — do not share it publicly or commit it to version control.

Example Queries

Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant questions like:
  • “What is our overall compliance readiness?”
  • “Show me all controls that are not implemented for ISO 27001”
  • “Which policies are still in draft status?”
  • “List all critical and high severity test failures”
  • “What are our top risks by score?”
  • “Show vendors with high risk level”
  • “Which training courses have low completion rates?”
  • “List overdue compliance tasks”

Security & Permissions

  • The MCP server provides read-only access to your compliance data
  • All queries are scoped to your organization — no cross-tenant access is possible
  • API key permissions from Settings > API Keys apply
  • No compliance data is cached by the AI — it is retrieved fresh per request
  • All MCP requests are logged in your organization’s audit trail
The MCP server uses stateless HTTP transport. Each request is independent — no session data is stored between requests.
