## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "netexec_scan",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why netexec_scan is rated High

NetExec (formerly CrackMapExec) is a well-known network exploitation/enumeration tool used in penetration testing. The 'scan' suffix suggests execution of a network scan or exploitation attempt. Given the offensive security context of this server, this tool likely executes netexec commands against targets, which constitutes active external operations.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'netexec_scan' combined with server context of 'MCP security tools' and sibling tools like 'ai_generate_attack_suite', 'advanced_payload_generation', and 'amass_scan'"

## Use case

AI agents invoke netexec_scan to trigger actions in Intellirecon Console. What it does depends on the arguments the agent supplies, and its effects often reach beyond the immediate call: builds kicked off, notifications sent, workflows started.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)

Verdict: **Rate-limited**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Intellirecon Console:

```json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "netexec_scan": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "netexec_scan_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```
