What Changes When Your Software Supply Chain Includes AI Writing Your Code?

The integration of AI into software development pipelines has significantly expanded the software supply chain attack surface. AI coding assistants, autonomous agents, and model context protocols (MCP) introduce new risks, such as malicious dependency suggestions, poisoned tool descriptions, and prompt injection attacks. Traditional security scanning is insufficient as threats now originate from models, agents, and their configurations, not just code artifacts.
