Return when the last syscheck scan started and ended.
AI agents call get_syscheck_last_scan to retrieve information from Wazuh MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves timing information about a completed security scan (syscheck). It has no capability to modify, delete, execute, or affect any system state—it only returns metadata about when a prior scan ran. This is a straightforward read/query operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_syscheck_last_scan' and description 'Return when the last syscheck scan started and ended' indicate data retrieval with no side effects. The verb 'get' and 'return' are characteristic of read operations that query existing scan metadata.
