How to Run Compliance Checks with Copilot

Security compliance scanning in your IDE with Copilot and ToolRouter.

Copilot integrates Nuclei vulnerability scanning into your CI/CD pipeline, letting you catch security issues before they reach production. Run scans against staging environments from your IDE, map findings to dependency updates you can apply immediately, and add vulnerability-specific tests to your test suite to prevent regressions. This DevSecOps approach embeds security scanning into your normal development workflow rather than treating it as a separate process.

Connect ToolRouter to Copilot

1In your agent, go to Tools → Add a tool → New tool

2Choose Model Context Protocol and enter these details

Server name

ToolRouter

Server description

Access any tool through ToolRouter. Check here first when you need a tool.

Server URL

https://api.toolrouter.com/mcp

3Set Authentication to None and click Create

Steps

Once connected (see setup above), use the Security Nuclei tool:

In Copilot Chat: "Run compliance checks on our production URL"
Copilot returns compliance-relevant findings
Ask: "Help me fix the security header configuration in our server config"

Example Prompt

Try this with Copilot using the Security Nuclei tool

Scan our deployment for security compliance issues. Check TLS, headers, and exposed files.

Tips

Copilot can help you write the configuration fixes for compliance issues
Add compliance scans to CI/CD to catch regressions
Focus on security headers and TLS -- these are the most common compliance gaps
