🔒 Pentool — Professional TUI Web Pentesting Toolkit

🚧 Active Development — Public Demo/Beta. Core modules are stable and fully usable. PRO features are under active development. Feedback and bug reports are welcome.

🌐 Languages: English · Русский · 中文 · हिन्दी

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.

  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
