WHAT IT DOES

What scan_project_security does on Claude MCP Server Ecosystem

AI agents call scan_project_security to retrieve information from Claude MCP Server Ecosystem without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why scan_project_security is rated Low

Security scanning reads and analyzes project files/code to identify vulnerabilities without modifying anything. It's a read/analysis operation with no side effects. Medium severity because it may access sensitive source code, configurations, and secrets across a project, and scan results themselves could be sensitive if exposed to a malicious actor.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs scan_project_security safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Claude MCP Server Ecosystem, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For scan_project_security, this is the rule to start with:

scan_project_security Allowed

scan_project_security is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "scan_project_security": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Claude MCP Server Ecosystem, apply this rule, and every scan_project_security call is checked against it from then on.
