Autonomous Cyber Reasoning System - Red Team & Blue Team AI agents

Spectrum – Red/Blue Team AI Framework

A dual‑mode autonomous security platform.
Run as Red Team to attack a target, or as Blue Team to monitor, detect intrusions and hot‑patch vulnerabilities.
Powered by Hugging Face (or AMD Cloud) models.

---

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10 or newer
• pip
• A Hugging Face account (hf.co) and an API token
• Git (optional – you can also download the ZIP)

---

Clone the project

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/spectrum.git
cd spectrum

If you downloaded a ZIP, extract it and open a terminal inside the extracted folder.

---

Install dependencies

Create and activate a virtual environment (recommended):

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate       # macOS / Linux
venv\Scripts\activate          # Windows

Install the required packages:

pip install -r requirements.txt

On macOS with Homebrew Python you may need:

pip install --break-system-packages -r requirements.txt

---

Configuration

API Provider & Token

On the first run, Spectrum asks which provider you want to use:

1. Hugging Face – you will be prompted for your HF_TOKEN.
2. AMD Cloud – you will be prompted for your AMD_API_KEY.

The token is saved in a .env file.
You can also create that file manually:

echo "HF_TOKEN=hf_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" > .env

(Replace hf_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with your actual token.)

Model selection (config.json)

The default models work out of the box.
You can change final_model_id (the main agent) and sentinel_model_id (the lightweight Blue Team watcher) inside config.json.

Example excerpt:

{
    "final_model_id": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Flash",
    "sentinel_model_id": "Qwen/Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct"
}

---

Run a vulnerable target (optional)

The project includes a deliberately vulnerable Flask application (lab.py).
Start it in a separate terminal to give the agents something to attack/defend:

python3 lab.py

It listens on http://127.0.0.1:4999 (or the port printed in the terminal).

---

Launch Spectrum

python3 main.py

You will see the Spectrum banner. Press Enter to continue.

Choose your mode

Select Operational Module:
  1. Red Team (Offensive)
  2. Blue Team (Defensive)
  3. Exit

---

Red Team Mode

1. Enter a target / objective, for example:
   Find the hidden flag on http://127.0.0.1:4999
2. The agent will plan, execute terminal commands, write scripts, and attempt to breach the target.
3. Ctrl+C to pause, then:
   • s – steer the agent (give an instruction)
   • p – pause and save the session
   • Enter – resume

---

Blue Team Mode

1. Enter the URL to defend, for example:
   http://127.0.0.1:4999
2. The Blue Team will:
   • Kill the existing server (if any) and restart it with logging enabled.
   • Start a Sentinel (small AI model) that watches the log file every few seconds.
   • When an attack is detected:
     • Record the attacker IP (in blocked_ips.txt).
     • Ask the main model to classify the attack.
     • Automatically patch the vulnerable code (SQLi, command injection, SSTI, etc.).
     • Restart the server with a fresh log.
3. Ctrl+C to pause, same steering options as Red Team.

Troubleshooting

• ModuleNotFoundError → run pip install -r requirements.txt again.
• API Quota Exhausted → wait a few minutes or switch to another model in config.json.
• Blue Team doesn't detect attacks → ensure the target was started with logging (the Blue Team does this automatically for lab.py).
• Terminal output looks broken → run main.py in a standard terminal; Rich formatting works best there.

Deployment (Hugging Face Spaces / Streamlit Cloud)

The repository includes app.py for Streamlit deployment and a Dockerfile for Docker Spaces.
Refer to the comments in those files for details.
