What ggshield commands are available? First is quota, which checks how many API calls you have remaining for your GitGuardian workspace: ggshield quota As a rule of thumb, Starter plans include 10,000 API calls per month, and Business and Enterprise plans start at 100,000 calls per month. Next is config, which acts like the CLI control panel. ggshield uses YAML configuration to define how the CLI behaves, and you can tune it per repository.

In this video, I walk you step by step through the process of adding MCP servers to Google’s Antigravity. You’ll learn how they integrate with Antigravity and how to configure them correctly so everything runs smoothly.

Now that ggshield is installed, the next step is to authenticate it with GitGuardian so it can scan and talk to the API. The most common method is browser-based login: ggshield auth login This opens your browser and prompts you to sign in through the GitGuardian dashboard. It automatically generates an access token for you and stores it safely in your local configuration. By default, the token is scoped for secret scanning, which is what most people need. We’ll revisit scopes later.

Install ggshield the right way for your OS and get scanning in minutes. In this video, we walk through the most common installation paths for macOS, Linux, and Windows, plus container options if that’s your workflow: macOS: install with Homebrew, or grab the standalone.pkg from the ggshield releases page (no Python required, but you’ll update manually). Linux: install via Deb/RPM packages available on Cloudsmith. Windows: install via Chocolatey, or download the standalone.zip from the releases page (no Python required, but you’ll update manually).
