What is the HCL AppScan MCP Server?
The HCL AppScan MCP Server brings powerful application security testing capabilities directly to your AI agent. Seamlessly manage your security posture by monitoring vulnerabilities, tracking scan progress, and auditing your application inventory across HCL AppScan on Cloud (ASoC).
Key Features
- Inventory Management — List and search for applications in your security inventory to find their unique IDs.
- Vulnerability Tracking — Retrieve detailed lists of security issues found during scans, including severity and status.
- Scan Oversight — Monitor all performed scans and check the real-time status of active security tests.
- Dynamic Analysis (DAST) — Start new DAST scans for your web applications directly from your chat interface.
- Agent & Presence Monitoring — List available Presences (local agents) used for scanning internal applications.
- Real-time Insights — Get instant summaries of your security findings and prioritize remediation efforts.
Who is this for?
- Security Engineers — Quickly audit security findings across multiple applications without manual dashboard exports.
- DevSecOps Teams — Integrate security scan monitoring and initiation into your automated workflows.
- Compliance Officers — Monitor application security status and ensure all apps are regularly scanned.

Frequently asked questions
How do I get my AppScan API Key ID and Secret?
Log in to the AppScan on Cloud console, go to your User Profile (top right), and select API Keys. You can generate a new Key ID and Key Secret there.
Does this server support the EU region?
Yes, you can configure the APPSCAN_REGION environment variable to eu to connect to the European data center (eu.cloud.appscan.com).
Can I start a scan for an internal application?
Yes, provided you have an AppScan Presence (local agent) configured. You can use the list_presence tool to check their availability before starting a scan.
How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.
Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?
Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.
Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?
Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
