You are helping me build the following AI agent workflow.

## Goal
Qualys Security Bot for Slack: Start Qualys vulnerability scans or generate security reports directly from Slack using interactive modals with real-time status updates.

## Specification
- What it does: You can start vulnerability scans or generate security reports directly from Slack using interactive modals that show real-time status updates. This workflow parses your commands to execute Qualys actions via API without leaving the chat channel.
- Trigger: Run manually (Manual · on demand via Slack shortcut)
- Autonomy: Fully hands-off
- Expected setup effort: about an afternoon
- Tools/services involved:
  - Slack: User interface and notifications
  - Qualys: Vulnerability scanning and reporting
  - HTTP Request: API integration between Slack and Qualys

## Known pitfalls, handle each one explicitly in your implementation
1. Slack webhook URLs expire if not refreshed periodically, so store tokens securely and add a refresh mechanism to your auth layer.
2. Insecure direct object references may expose other users' scan data, so strictly validate that the requesting user has permission for the specific asset or report ID.
3. Large JSON payloads from Qualys can exceed Slack's message size limits, so paginate results or truncate detailed findings before sending the response.

## Reference implementation
https://n8n.io/workflows/2510 (workflow template)
Fetch and inspect this before building. If it matches my stack, adapt it;
if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools.

## Process requirements
1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and
   what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume.
2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack.
3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each.
4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data.
5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.
