ravage 0.5.0

Autonomous web security research agent for controlled authorized targets

Ravage

Ravage is an evidence-first web security research agent for controlled, authorized targets. This package provides the ravage CLI and runtime modules.

The project is a pre-1.0 research alpha. Use it only on local fixtures, isolated labs, or systems you own and are explicitly authorized to assess. The active public CLI is localhost-first.

Source Checkout

The canonical development setup is the repository bootstrap:

scripts/bootstrap.sh
source .venv/bin/activate
ravage --version

The 0.0.1 PyPI package is a legacy preview. Until a newer tagged release is published, use a source checkout and record its exact commit when reporting results.

Active Commands

Run deterministic probes without model calls:

ravage scan brief.yaml --run-dir runs/local-scan --report

Run the model-driven agent after configuring a model route and adding a useful context.description to the brief:

ravage attack brief.yaml \
  --model-profile hosted-openai \
  --model-tier low \
  --allow-paid-models \
  --report

Inspect and verify a run:

ravage observe runs/<run-dir>
ravage audit verify runs/<run-dir>
ravage report runs/<run-dir> --brief brief.yaml

Use ravage --help and each subcommand's --help for the installed version.

External scanners such as nmap, sqlmap, katana, nuclei, and ffuf are not Python dependencies. From a source checkout, use scripts/install_tools.sh --method docker --execute, then run ravage tools check.

The optional browser extra adds Playwright support; install its Chromium runtime separately with playwright install chromium.
