WHAT IT DOES

What scan_surrounding_channels does on Ikuai

AI agents call scan_surrounding_channels to retrieve information from Ikuai 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_surrounding_channels is rated Low

Even though scan_surrounding_channels 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
