What rustscan_fast_scan does on Intellirecon Console
AI agents invoke rustscan_fast_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.
Why rustscan_fast_scan is rated High
RustScan is a network port scanning tool that executes active network scans against targets. Even without a description, the tool name strongly implies it runs RustScan to perform fast port scanning. This constitutes an Execute action with high blast radius, as it actively probes external systems.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'rustscan_fast_scan' references RustScan, a well-known fast port scanner used in security reconnaissance. Server context is a security recon console with sibling tools for scanning, payloads, and vulnerability assessment.

The rule that runs rustscan_fast_scan safely
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and Intellirecon Console, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For rustscan_fast_scan, this is the rule to start with:
rustscan_fast_scan stays usable, but rate-capped: a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect Intellirecon Console, apply this rule, and every rustscan_fast_scan call is checked against it from then on.
