URL Malware & Phishing Scanner

security.ipqs.url_check
Read-onlyIdempotent

Scan any URL for malware, phishing, and suspicious content. Returns risk score, domain reputation, and HTTP status to protect agents from visiting malicious sites.

Instructions

Scan any URL for malware, phishing, suspicious content, adult content, spamming, and domain parking. Returns risk score (0-100), domain reputation, domain age, IP address, HTTP status. Protects agents from visiting malicious URLs (IPQualityScore)

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urlYesFull URL to scan for malware, phishing, and threats (e.g. "https://example.com/page")
strictnessNoScanning strictness 0-2 (0=least strict, 2=most aggressive)

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
resultNoTool response payload. Shape varies per tool — consult the tool description and inputSchema. May be an object, array, string, or number depending on the upstream provider response.
errorNoPresent only when the call failed. Includes error code, message, request_id, and any provider-specific extras.
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already indicate read-only, non-destructive, idempotent behavior. The description adds value by stating it protects agents from malicious URLs and lists returned fields (risk score, domain reputation, etc.), enriching behavioral understanding.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is two sentences, front-loading the action and key details. No redundant information; every sentence contributes value.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present, the description appropriately summarizes return values without redundancy. It covers the tool's role in security scanning adequately for agent decision-making.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Input schema has 100% description coverage for both parameters (url and strictness). The description does not add additional parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the action 'Scan any URL' and lists specific threats (malware, phishing, etc.), making the purpose unambiguous. It distinguishes itself from siblings like ip_check and email_check by focusing on URLs.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Usage context is implied by the tool name and description (scanning URLs for security threats). No explicit when-not or alternative tools are mentioned, but the domain is clear and siblings cover different entities (email, IP, phone).

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
