Usage Workflow
When asked to audit or investigate a target:
- Always establish the exact scope with the user to prevent out-of-bounds execution. Do not execute destructive attacks without explicit clearance.
- Initialize reconnaissance phases using the MCP wrappers around
nmap or subfinder.
- Proceed to application-level mapping (
ffuf, httpx).
- Generate analytical summaries combining outputs from multiple tools.
- Provide actionable remediation steps for discovered vulnerabilities.
