What scan_post_quantum does on FEDLIN Scanners
AI agents call scan_post_quantum to retrieve information from FEDLIN Scanners without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
domain | string | Yes | A bare public hostname to scan, for example example.com. No scheme, path, or port; IP literals and internal hostnames are rejected. |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why scan_post_quantum is rated Low
Even though scan_post_quantum only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs: an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
The rule that runs scan_post_quantum safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and FEDLIN Scanners, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For scan_post_quantum, this is the rule to start with:
scan_post_quantum is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect FEDLIN Scanners, apply this rule, and every scan_post_quantum call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about scan_post_quantum
Check whether a domain's TLS is using post-quantum (hybrid ML-KEM) key exchange. It is categorised as a Read tool in the FEDLIN Scanners MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
scan_post_quantum accepts 1 parameter: domain. Required: domain. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the FEDLIN Scanners MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for scan_post_quantum: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches FEDLIN Scanners. Nothing to install.
scan_post_quantum is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the scan_post_quantum rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for scan_post_quantum. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
scan_post_quantum is provided by the FEDLIN Scanners MCP server (https://mcp.fedlin.com/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
