http_headers

Pack: hackertarget · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/http_headers for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

“What headers does [site] return” / “what server runs [X]” / “check the security headers” / “does [site] redirect” — HTTP response headers fetched by HackerTarget, including status line, Server, redirect Location, and security headers such as HSTS and CSP. Use to fingerprint a stack or audit header hygiene without loading the page yourself.
