swarmhack-cli

Neural swarm-based penetration testing framework.

What's New in v0.2.0

• Runtime Modes: Choose between local (direct execution) or docker (containerized) mode
• OCSF 1.1.0 Reports: Industry-standard vulnerability reports with optimized JSON structure
• Prancer Portal Integration: Secure authentication with Prancer Portal
• Bundled Configuration: Default config file included - no manual setup required
• Multi-Platform Support: Linux, macOS, and Windows binaries

Installation

npm install -g swarmhack-cli

Or use npx:

npx swarmhack-cli --help

Configuration

SwarmHack includes a default configuration file (config/swarmhack.yaml) that is automatically used when running commands. You can override it by:

1. Using your own config file:

   swarmhack spawn --config /path/to/your/config.yaml --target "http://example.com"

2. Creating a local config in your project: Place config/swarmhack.yaml in your project root - it will be automatically detected.

3. Customizing the bundled config: Copy the bundled config to your project and modify it:

   cp $(npm root -g)/swarmhack-cli/config/swarmhack.yaml ./config/

CLI Usage

# Run SQL injection scan (local mode - default)
swarmhack spawn --agents sqli \
  --target "http://example.com" \
  --customer "your-customer" \
  --token "your-token"

# Run in Docker mode (isolated execution)
swarmhack spawn --agents sqli \
  --target "http://example.com" \
  --runtime docker \
  --docker-image "swarmhack/pentest:latest"

# Run multiple agents
swarmhack spawn --agents sqli,xss,csrf \
  --target "http://example.com" \
  --customer "your-customer" \
  --token "your-token"

# Run in Docker with custom image and volumes
swarmhack spawn --agents sqli \
  --target "http://example.com" \
  --runtime docker \
  --docker-image "myregistry/swarmhack:v1.0" \
  --docker-volume "/host/reports:/app/reports"

# List available agents
swarmhack agents list

# Check system health
swarmhack doctor

Runtime Modes

SwarmHack supports two runtime modes:

| Mode | Description | Use Case | |------|-------------|----------| | local | Run directly on host system | Development, CI/CD with pre-installed tools | | docker | Run inside Docker containers | Production, isolated execution, portable |

CLI Runtime Options

| Option | Description | |--------|-------------| | --runtime | Runtime mode: local (default) or docker | | --docker-image | Docker image to use (overrides config) | | --docker-container | Custom container name | | --docker-volume | Additional volumes (can be repeated) | | --docker-env | Environment variables (format: KEY=VALUE) |

Config File Runtime Options

# In config/swarmhack.yaml
runtime:
  mode: docker  # or "local"
  docker_image: swarmhack/pentest:latest
  docker_auto_remove: true
  docker_volumes:
    - /host/reports:/app/reports
  docker_env:
    CUSTOM_VAR: value
  docker_network: bridge
  docker_resources:
    memory: 1g
    cpus: "1"

Node.js API

const swarmhack = require('swarmhack-cli');

// Run a scan
const results = await swarmhack.scan({
  target: 'http://example.com',
  agents: ['sqli', 'xss'],
  customer: 'your-customer',
  token: 'your-token',
});

console.log(results);

// Check version
const version = await swarmhack.version();
console.log(version);

// Run any command
const result = await swarmhack.run(['spawn', '--help']);
console.log(result.stdout);

Supported Platforms

| Platform | Architecture | |----------|--------------| | Linux | x64, arm64 | | macOS | x64, arm64 | | Windows | x64 |

Docker Alternative

If npm installation fails, use Docker:

docker run --rm \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -v $(pwd)/reports:/app/reports \
  prancer/swarmhack:0.1.0 \
  spawn --agents sqli --target "http://example.com" \
  --customer "your-customer" --token "your-token"

Available Agents

| Agent | Description | |-------|-------------| | crawler | Web crawling and discovery | | sqli | SQL injection detection | | xss | Cross-site scripting | | csrf | CSRF vulnerabilities | | idor | Insecure direct object reference | | auth_bypass | Authentication bypass | | cmdi | Command injection |

OCSF Reports

SwarmHack generates reports in OCSF 1.1.0 format, the industry standard for security findings:

{
  "scan_info": {
    "scanner": { "name": "SwarmHack", "vendor": "Prancer" },
    "customer": "your-customer",
    "target": "http://example.com",
    "duration_formatted": "3m 11s",
    "summary": { "findings_count": 5, "crown_jewels_count": 12 }
  },
  "class_name": "Vulnerability Finding",
  "class_uid": 6001,
  "findings": [...]
}

Authentication

SwarmHack requires Prancer Portal authentication:

swarmhack spawn \
  --target "http://example.com" \
  --agents sqli,xss \
  --customer "your-customer" \
  --token "your-32-char-token"

Get your token from Prancer Portal → Settings → Access Tokens.

Requirements

• Node.js 16+
• Prancer Portal account (for --token and --customer)
