Perplexity

Trigger scans straight from your terminal session

SREs and DevOps engineers don't want to click buttons in a GUI. Claude Code uses `launch_scan` to initiate target audits directly from your command line. You can pipe this action into your deploy scripts or run it manually during an incident response. The terminal-only agent handles the API calls and keeps you updated.

Fetch vulnerability logs with this CLI MCP Server

Get raw security data fast. Claude Code calls `list_vulnerabilities` to dump active target vulnerabilities straight into your shell. This is perfect for quick audits. You can ask the agent to filter out low-severity bugs and only show the critical issues that need immediate patching.

Monitor active scan runs in your shell

Check the status of your security pipeline using `list_scans`. Claude Code queries your running jobs to show you what is currently being audited. No more polling a web UI to see if your security check finished. The agent fetches the list, tells you which scans are done, and helps you plan your next move.
