What ssl_cert_info does on ScorpTech x402 API
AI agents call ssl_cert_info to retrieve information from ScorpTech x402 API 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
host | string | Yes | Hostname, host:port or URL (host is extracted). Public IPs allowed (no SNI). |
port | integer | — | TLS port: 443 (default), 465, 587, 636, 853, 993, 995, 5223 or 8443 |
Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
Why ssl_cert_info is rated Low
Even though ssl_cert_info 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.

The rule that runs ssl_cert_info safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and ScorpTech x402 API, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For ssl_cert_info, this is the rule to start with:
ssl_cert_info 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 ScorpTech x402 API, apply this rule, and every ssl_cert_info call is checked against it from then on.
Questions about ssl_cert_info
Inspect a live TLS certificate: subject, issuer, SANs, validity window, days to expiry, SHA-256 fingerprint, key type/size, full presented chain, negotiated TLS version/cipher, chain trust and RFC 6125 hostname match. Implicit-TLS ports 443/465/587/636/853/993/995/5223/8443. Price: $0.01 USDC per successful call (x402, Solana). Same tool over HTTPS: GET https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/v1/ssl-cert-info. It is categorised as a Read tool in the ScorpTech x402 API MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
ssl_cert_info accepts 2 parameters: host, port. Required: host. The full parameter table on this page comes from the server's own tool schema.
Register the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for ssl_cert_info: 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 ScorpTech x402 API. Nothing to install.
ssl_cert_info 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 ssl_cert_info 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 ssl_cert_info. 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.
ssl_cert_info is provided by the ScorpTech x402 API MCP server (https://scorptech.it.com/api/x402/mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
