Pentool is a terminal-based (TUI) security toolkit for penetration testers and security researchers.
It combines HTTP interception, vulnerability scanning, automated attacks, and data analysis — all inside your terminal.
Fast, transparent, and built for real-world testing.

⚠️ Use a modern terminal emulator. Pentool's TUI relies on mouse support, true color, and modern rendering (built on the Textual framework). Legacy terminals (e.g. Windows cmd.exe) will render incorrectly. Recommended: Windows Terminal, iTerm2 (macOS), GNOME Terminal / Kitty / Alacritty / WezTerm (Linux). On Windows, running inside WSL gives the best experience.

✨ Features

  • 🌐 Proxy
    Intercept and modify HTTP/HTTPS traffic in real time. Manage scope, apply Match & Replace rules, capture WebSocket messages.

  • 🔄 Repeater
    Replay requests with any modifications. Save tabs between sessions and switch between scenarios instantly.

  • 💥 Intruder
    Run automated payload attacks with four strategies: Sniper, Battering Ram, Pitchfork, Cluster Bomb.
    Turbo Mode delivers 10× speed via Keep-Alive and connection pooling.

  • 🔍 Scanner
    Active and passive vulnerability analysis: SQLi, XSS, SSTI, LFI, RCE, SSRF, XXE, CORS, JWT flaws, and more.
    Smart context-aware payloads, WAF bypass, time-based and boolean-blind techniques.

  • 🕷 Spider
    Crawl targets automatically — collect pages, forms, API endpoints, and JS files.
    JavaScript rendering via Playwright is supported.

  • 🎯 Target / Site Map
    Build a site map from proxy traffic, manage testing scope, and filter hosts directly from the UI.

  • 🔐 Decoder · Comparer · Sequencer

    • Decoder — 19 encode/decode/hash operations with chaining support
    • Comparer — side-by-side diff with change highlighting
    • Sequencer — entropy analysis of tokens (sessions, CSRF, JWT) with FIPS tests
  • 🧩 Plugin System
    Extend functionality without touching the core. PRO plugins add advanced scanners, smart payloads, and report generators.

  • ⚡ Async Core
    Fully async engine handles thousands of concurrent connections and hundreds of requests per second.

  • 📦 One-line Install
    pip install pentool — no complex setup, works on Linux, macOS, and Windows (WSL).

  • 🆓 Open Source + PRO Extensions
    The base version is free and open. PRO extensions unlock exclusive features and support the project.
