Claude Code is a harness. MindFort is the pentester.
Security engineers and pentesters already use coding harnesses like Claude Code to read a repo, draft an exploit, and write a report. That still needs a person in the loop, and it is closer to codebase scanning than to a pentest. MindFort runs runtime penetration tests against your live products and services, proves every finding, and opens the patch pull request, starting at $199 a month.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about MindFort and Claude Code.
No. Claude Code helps you write code. MindFort pentests your live products and services.
With Claude Code, you run the session against a repo and judge the output. MindFort pentests the live product, proves each finding, and can open the patch pull request.
Yes, as an assistant. You still prompt it, approve commands, and assemble the evidence. MindFort runs that work for you.
No. It can debug a page when you ask. It doesn't run a scheduled pentest against your live products. MindFort does.
A code scan can flag something that looks reachable. It can't prove the bug works on your running app. MindFort only reports findings that it can exploit.
It can write a fix when you ask. It doesn't prove the issue, open a patch pull request, and re-test after you deploy. MindFort can.
MindFort starts at $199 per month. Claude Code is a subscription or token bill, plus the person who operates it. That doesn't include triage time from code-scan noise.
