FOR AUTHORIZED SECURITY TESTING ONLY — Only test systems you own or have explicit written permission to test.

Why Vibe Security?

Security testing used to mean installing five tools, learning each one's flags, writing config files, and manually correlating results. That's not how it should work.

Vibe security is the idea that security testing should be as easy as vibe coding made development — describe what you want, and the tool handles the rest. Fray embodies this:

• One command does everything — fray go runs recon, finds vulnerabilities, tests them, and generates a report. Zero config.
• You don't need to be a security expert — Fray picks the right checks and payloads based on what it discovers about your target.
• AI-native — built-in MCP server for Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor. Ask questions in natural language, get security answers.
• Smart, not noisy — adaptive cache learns across scans. Blocked payloads are never re-sent. Each run gets smarter.

Before Fray vs. With Fray

Traditional Security Testing	Vibe Security with Fray
Install 5+ tools (nmap, wafw00f, sqlmap, nikto, nuclei)	pip install fray
Learn each tool's flags and config formats	fray go target.com
Manually correlate findings across tools	Automatic pipeline: recon → test → report
Write custom scripts to chain tools together	Built-in: 35 checks, 12 deep scan modules, 7,400+ payloads
Read hundreds of pages of documentation	Zero config — smart defaults, interactive menus
Security expertise required	Built for anyone who ships web apps

Quick Start

pip install fray

The only command you need:

fray go https://target.com        # Full pipeline: recon → vuln test → report

That's it. Fray scans your target, identifies the tech stack and WAF, finds vulnerabilities, tests them, and generates an HTML report — all automatically.

Want more control? Use individual commands:

fray recon https://target.com          # 35-check reconnaissance
fray test https://target.com --smart   # Smart payload selection from recon findings
fray scan https://target.com           # Auto crawl → discover → inject
fray monitor https://target.com        # Continuous monitoring with alerts

Cloudflare R2 sharing (optional)

fray go --share uploads a sanitized recon snapshot to Cloudflare R2 and returns a public URL. Configure credentials once via fray sync --configure or drop a file at ~/.fray/cloud.json:

{
  "r2_endpoint": "https://ACCOUNT_ID.r2.cloudflarestorage.com",
  "r2_bucket": "fray-shares",
  "r2_access_key": "R2AKIA...",
  "r2_secret_key": "super-secret",
  "share_patterns": false
}

Or use environment variables (highest priority):

Variable	Description	Example
FRAY_R2_ENDPOINT	R2 S3 endpoint URL	https://abc123.r2.cloudflarestorage.com
FRAY_R2_BUCKET	Bucket name	fray-shares
FRAY_R2_ACCESS_KEY	Access key ID	R2AKIA...
FRAY_R2_SECRET_KEY	Secret key	super-secret

Run fray share --list --json anytime to view active shares with human-readable expirations.

Commands

Fray has 20 commands organized into 6 groups. Run fray --help or fray help for full details.

Core — Security testing workflow

fray go <url>              # ★ Full assessment: recon → smart test → report
fray recon <url>           # Reconnaissance & fingerprinting (35+ checks)
fray test <url>            # Test WAF with payloads (-c xss --smart --blind)
fray scan <url>            # Auto crawl → discover → inject (--bounty)
fray monitor <url>         # Continuous monitoring with alerts

fray <url> is a shortcut for fray go <url> — just point and scan.

Data — Reports & intelligence

fray report <sub>          # generate, company, waf, posture, diff, explain
fray intel <sub>           # feed, cve, poc-recheck, leak, osint, ct
fray auth <sub>            # session, solve, cred
fray export <sub>          # nuclei, ci

Manage — Configuration & data

fray init                  # Scaffold .fray.toml + auth profile + scope file
fray config                # .fray.toml configuration
fray plugin                # Plugin system
fray cache                 # Payload cache & stats (--dry-run for clear)
fray update                # Update payload database

Integrations

fray dashboard             # Web UI (live reload, timeline, diff)
fray mcp                   # AI assistant MCP server
fray completions           # Shell completions (bash/zsh/fish)

Utilities

fray todo list --json      # Internal TODO list (stored at ~/.fray/todo.json)

fray todo is an internal helper for maintainers — it never syncs or touches the repo. The --json flag now returns a structured payload with sorted items:

{
  "summary": {
    "total_count": 4,
    "pending_count": 3,
    "completed_count": 1,
    "showing_count": 3,
    "show_all": false
  },
  "items": [
    {"id": 4, "priority": "high", "status": "pending", "content": "..."}
  ]
}

This makes scripting straightforward (e.g., jq '.summary.pending_count'). Use --all to include completed items in both the summary and item list.

Learn & help

fray ask <query>           # Natural language query
fray learn [topic]         # Interactive security tutorial
fray doctor [--fix]        # Check environment & core imports
fray help [cmd] [--man]    # Full command guide (or man page)
