SecScan MCP
A remote MCP server for the SecScan hosted web application security scanner. It allows AI editors like Claude Code and Cursor to initiate black-box security scans, monitor scan status, retrieve graded reports with AI-generated fix prompts, and manage continuous monitoring for verified domains.
Endpoint and access
No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

scan_url — Scan a website
Start a SecScan security scan of a web application the user owns or is authorised to test. Returns a scan_id; most scans finish in under a minute — then call get_scan_status with wait_seconds, or get_report. Active tests (injection, XSS, SSRF…) run only on domains the user has verified; others get passive checks. Optionally also reads a GitHub repository's source (github_repo): any public one, or a private one the user connected at secscan.us. That only contacts GitHub, never the site. Each scan uses one of the user's free scans, plan scans or credits.

}get_scan_status — Check a scan
Status of a scan (queued, scanning, analyzing, complete, failed). With wait_seconds (max 60) it waits for the scan to finish and returns the full report as soon as it does.

}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}{
"readOnlyHint": true
}get_report — Read a scan report
The finished report for a scan: grade, what the scan tested and what it skipped (a clean grade says nothing about skipped areas, so say so), prioritised findings with fixes and evidence, and a fix prompt written for the user's AI editor. Findings come 25 per page, most severe first — pass offset for the next page, or min_severity (e.g. "high") to focus on what matters most.

},
"additionalProperties": false

"readOnlyHint": true
}list_recent_scans — List recent scans
The user's most recent scans with their status, newest first.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"properties": {
"limit": {
"type": "integer",
"maximum": 25,
"minimum": 1
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}{
"readOnlyHint": true
}list_verified_domains — List verified domains
Domains the user has proved they own. Only these receive active testing (injection, XSS, SSRF, access control); others get passive checks. Verify more at https://secscan.us/domains.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"properties": {}
}{
"readOnlyHint": true
}get_account — Scans left and plan
How many scans the user can still run — free scans, plan scans and credits — and their plan. Check this before starting several scans.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"properties": {}
}{
"readOnlyHint": true
}start_domain_verification — Start verifying a domain
Begin proving the user owns a domain, which unlocks active tests (injection, XSS, SSRF, access control) on its scans. Returns a file to publish on the site, or a DNS TXT record — an editor can usually add the file to the codebase and deploy it. Then call check_domain_verification. Calling it again returns the same token, so a record already published stays valid.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"required": [
"domain"
],
"properties": {

"minLength": 1,
"description": "The domain, e.g. example.com or https://example.com"
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}{
"idempotentHint": false
}check_domain_verification — Check a domain verification
Check whether the file or DNS record from start_domain_verification is live. On success the domain is verified and its next scan includes active tests. DNS changes can take a few minutes.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"required": [
"domain"
],
"properties": {

"description": "The domain passed to start_domain_verification"
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}{
"openWorldHint": true,
"idempotentHint": true
}list_monitors — List monitored sites
Sites under continuous monitoring: latest grade, last and next scan, uptime check, CVE alerts, new problems in the last scan and certificate expiry. Use the monitor id with monitor_scan_now.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"properties": {}
}{
"readOnlyHint": true
}add_monitor — Monitor a site
Put a site the user owns under continuous monitoring: hourly uptime checks, CVE matching, certificate alerts and regular rescans. Runs a full baseline scan straight away, which uses one of the user's scans exactly as in the app (free for plan holders). Returns the baseline scan_id for get_scan_status.

"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",

"minLength": 1,
"description": "The site to monitor, e.g. https://example.com"
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}{
"openWorldHint": true
}monitor_scan_now — Rescan a monitored site now
Run a full scan of a monitored site now instead of waiting for its schedule — e.g. to confirm a fix. Free for plan holders; otherwise uses one of the user's scans, as in the app. Takes the monitor id from list_monitors.
{
"type": "object",
"$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
"required": [

"properties": {
"monitor_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The monitor id from list_monitors or add_monitor"
}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}{
"openWorldHint": true
}dismiss_finding — Dismiss a false positive
Mark a finding as a false positive for this site, so future scans of it stop reporting it — the same as Dismiss in the app, and undoable there. ONLY use this after the user has confirmed the finding is wrong; never dismiss a real problem to improve a grade.

"type": "object",
