Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Automate a task

Put Nmap Online to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Nmap Online works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Nmap Online, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Nmap Online. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Nmap Online owners ask.

  • 01

    Do I need to install Nmap on my own computer?

    No. This MCP handles all the scanning and execution on the backend. You only need to connect your AI client.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

    You can use any MCP-compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 03

    How do I get higher usage limits?

    You can enter a HackerTarget API key within the MCP settings to increase your scanning limits.

  • 04

    Can I use this for DNS investigations?

    Yes. The MCP includes capabilities for forward DNS lookups, reverse DNS lookups, and subdomain discovery.

  • 05

    Is this MCP hosted?

    Yes. Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP, so it is ready to use immediately after you connect.

  • 06

    Is a HackerTarget API Key mandatory?

    No. HackerTarget allows a limited number of free daily scans without a key. For higher volume or commercial use, an API key is required.

  • 07

    Can I perform an aggressive Nmap scan?

    The nmap_scan capability in this server performs a standard service discovery scan. Aggressive flags are limited by the upstream API provider for safety and performance reasons.

  • 08

    What information does the GeoIP lookup provide?

    The GeoIP capability returns the country, region, city, and the Internet Service Provider (ISP) associated with the target IP address.
