Perplexity

Headless security auditing

Pipe `list_issues` output directly into your CI/CD scripts to block builds with critical vulnerabilities. It automates your quality gates based on real scan data. Use `get_scan` to verify results after a pipeline run. You get instant feedback on whether your latest commit introduced new flaws.

Infrastructure inventory management

Run `list_targets` from your terminal to generate a current report of all scanned assets. This helps you maintain an up-to-date asset registry for compliance audits. It reconciles your active server list by calling `get_target` for specific details. You ensure every endpoint is accounted for in your security policy.

Operational scan tracking

Schedule `list_scans` checks via cron jobs to monitor your security posture over time. It provides the raw data needed for your internal security dashboards. Check `list_teams` to verify that your SRE team has the correct visibility into these scan results. You keep your organization aligned on risk.
