What is the Port Scanner API MCP server?

TCP port scanning — check open ports on any host. x402 micropayment. That is what the port scanner api mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

The short version

Scan TCP ports on any host -- check open/closed status, response time. 16 common ports by default. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base L2) -- no API key, no signup, no rate-limit wall.

The tools it exposes

The server publishes 1 tool. What each one is for:

  • network_scan_ports — POST

Getting it running

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

How it compares

Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Port Scanner API's toolset — network_scan_ports — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Br0ski777; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Things to watch

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Port Scanner API to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 1 tool (network_scan_ports) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Port Scanner API directly.
