Summary

Endor Labs explains core terms in agentic development: models, harnesses, hooks, skills, plugins, and MCP servers. It describes where each sits in the agentic development lifecycle and how each creates an AppSec entry point or attack surface. The post cites IDC's July 2026 DevSecOps and Application Security Survey, in which 79.6% of respondents reported at least a moderate reassessment of their AppSec tools due to code security capabilities from frontier AI companies.
