Anonymous scans are rate-limited at 10 per day per IP. An API key raises that to 100 scans per day per key — enough to monitor your own fleet of staging + prod domains from CI without hitting the wall.
No account, no email — just click the button. You'll
get a token that looks like ak_XXXXXXXXXX….
Present it as Authorization: Bearer <token>
on every POST /api/v1/scans call.
Key mints are themselves rate-limited at 5 per hour per IP — enough to recover from a lost token, tight enough that hoarding across the anonymous quota isn't practical.
Rather than hitting the REST API directly, grab an official client library. More languages follow.

from agentdisco import AgentDisco
with AgentDisco(token="ak_…") as client:
scan = client.submit_scan("https://your-site.example")
print(scan.id, scan.status)Get a signed JSON POST to a URL of your choice every time a scan of a host you registered completes. Useful for CI integrations, status-page updates, or pushing grade changes into your own dashboards.
Sign in, open your account, scroll to Scan webhooks, fill in the host you want to subscribe to + the receiver URL, and submit. We mint a 32-byte HMAC signing secret and show it to you exactly once — copy it into your receiver's secret store.
On every completed scan we POST a JSON body that looks like this:
POST https://your-receiver.example/agent-disco
Content-Type: application/json
X-Agent-Disco-Event: scan.completed
X-Agent-Disco-Webhook-Id: 019d...
X-Agent-Disco-Signature: sha256=...
{
"event": "scan.completed",
"scan": {
"id": "019d...",
"host": "your-site.example",
"grade": "B",
"score": 72,
"completedAt": "2026-04-25T10:00:00+00:00",
"statusUrl": "/api/v1/scans/019d...",
"resultUrl": "/report/your-site.example"
}
}
Every payload carries an X-Agent-Disco-Signature
header of the form sha256=<hex>.
Recompute HMAC-SHA256(secret, raw_body)
and compare in constant time:
# Python
import hmac, hashlib
def verify(body: bytes, signature: str, secret: str) -> bool:
expected = "sha256=" + hmac.new(
secret.encode(), body, hashlib.sha256,
).hexdigest()
return hmac.compare_digest(expected, signature)We expect a 2xx response within 10 seconds. Anything else (4xx, 5xx, timeout, DNS failure) is a delivery failure that retries 3× with exponential backoff. After 5 consecutive terminal failures we auto-pause the webhook — the row stays in your account but no further deliveries fire. Resume by deleting + re-creating it, or by ensuring the next attempt succeeds (the counter resets on any 2xx).
The scan.id in every payload is a UUIDv7
— its embedded timestamp lets your receiver reject
replays older than a window you choose (we recommend
5 minutes). The signature alone doesn't include a
nonce; if you need stricter replay protection,
discard payloads whose scan.completedAt
is older than your tolerance.
