# check_ssl_certificate Check if a domain has a valid SSL/TLS certificate and is reachable. Agent View of the PolicyLayer registry record for `check_ssl_certificate`. HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/check-ssl-certificate ## Facts - Tool: `check_ssl_certificate` - Server: GadgetHumans API Hub (`pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub.md - Install: `npx -y pypi:gadgethumans-api-hub-mcp` - Homepage: https://github.com/scotia1973-bot/api-hub - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 0 - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "check_ssl_certificate", "arguments": {} } } ``` ## Why check_ssl_certificate is rated Low This tool performs a passive read-only check of SSL certificate validity and domain reachability. It queries external services to retrieve information but does not execute arbitrary code, modify data, delete resources, or commit financial transactions. From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states it 'Check[s] if a domain has a valid SSL/TLS certificate and is reachable' — a query operation that retrieves certificate status information without modifying, executing code, or causing side effects." ## Use case AI agents call check_ssl_certificate to retrieve information from GadgetHumans API Hub without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches GadgetHumans API Hub: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "check_ssl_certificate": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on GadgetHumans API Hub (310) - `clean_whitespace` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/clean-whitespace.md - `gravitational_force_calc` — Destructive — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/gravitational-force-calc.md - `atbash_cipher` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/atbash-cipher.md - `caesar_cipher` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/caesar-cipher.md - `crawl_website` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/crawl-website.md - `electrical_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/electrical-calc.md - `evaluate_math` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/evaluate-math.md - `filter_data` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/filter-data.md - `fn` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/fn.md - `generate_password` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/generate-password.md - `hash_text` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/hash-text.md - `http_client` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/http-client.md - `ini_to_json` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ini-to-json.md - `matrix_operations` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/matrix-operations.md - `momentum_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/momentum-calc.md - `pressure_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/pressure-calc.md - `ratio_calc` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ratio-calc.md - `test_regex` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/test-regex.md - `web_scrape` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/web-scrape.md - `agent_memory` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/agent-memory.md - `generate_ulids` — Other — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/generate-ulids.md - `alternating_case` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/alternating-case.md - `amortization_calc` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/amortization-calc.md - `anagram_check` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/anagram-check.md - `analyze_tone` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/analyze-tone.md - `analyze_url` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/analyze-url.md - `angle_convert` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/angle-convert.md - `area_convert` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/area-convert.md - `ascii_table` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/ascii-table.md - `auto_loan_calc` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub/auto-loan-calc.md - …and 280 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/io-github-scotia1973-bot-api-hub.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
