How do Apiiro and Wiz Code cover AI code and coding assistants?

Apiiro: Detects risk across AI coding agents, IDE extensions and MCP servers, works with Cursor, GitHub Copilot and Claude Code, and scans with AI SAST and AI SCA.

Wiz Code: Wiz Code plugins work in Claude Code and Cursor, and the AI-BOM inventories IDE extensions including Gemini Code Assist, GitHub Copilot and Cursor; discovery of MCP servers on developer machines is not described.

Assistants named on their public pages: Apiiro: Claude Code, Cursor and GitHub Copilot; Wiz Code: Claude Code, Cursor and GitHub Copilot.

Where do their controls run on the developer machine?

Apiiro: The Apiiro CLI brings the platform into the terminal and into AI coding assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor and Copilot; an endpoint agent and tamper resistance are not described.

Wiz Code: Runs as IDE scanning, agent plugins and pre-commit hooks that catch secrets, IaC misconfigurations and vulnerabilities before source control; no endpoint agent or tamper resistance is described.

How much control does the security team get?

Apiiro: Guardian Agent adds pre-commit prevention and secure prompt enrichment; policy to approve or block specific agents or MCP servers is not described in detail.

Wiz Code: Findings and the AI-BOM sit in the Wiz platform, with SAST rules mapped to the OWASP Top 10 for LLM and for Agentic Applications; policy to allow or block specific coding agents or MCP servers is not described.

How do they fit the developer's workflow?

Apiiro: Developer surface through the CLI, MCP and AutoFix; no free tier for commercial teams (AutoFix is free for open source maintainers).
