A workspace built around the real bug bounty workflow on HackerOne: choose a program, document scope, scan within boundaries, chain findings, and report in a format triagers accept fast. The 400+ generic pentesting arsenal and local VM lab are available as support — not the entry point.

# If the repository was cloned without submodules:
git submodule update --init --recursive
cd bugbounty
./bugbounty-hunter.sh new program-name
# Edit ../programs/program-name.md with the EXACT scope from the H1 policy
./bugbounty-hunter.sh scope target.com # must say "Scope OK" before proceeding
./bugbounty-hunter.sh full target.com # recon -> vuln -> brute -> secrets -> api -> report

Before submitting, read docs/hackerone-workflow.md (Hacktivity dedup, report quality, post-submission steps).
This lab integrates T3MP3ST as its offensive security engine — a multi-agent framework that turns your AI coding agent into a zero-day hunter.
# 1. Clone T3MP3ST into the lab (it's .gitignored, separate repo)
git clone https://github.com/DevCop95/T3MP3ST t3mp3st
cd t3mp3st && npm install && cd ..
# 2. Configure API keys
cp t3mp3st/.env.example t3mp3st/.env
# Edit t3mp3st/.env with your LLM provider key(s)
# 3. Start the server
./start-server.sh
# War Room → http://127.0.0.1:3333/ui/
T3MP3ST works without API keys by connecting your local AI agent (Claude Code, Codex, Hermes). In the War Room UI, open Settings and connect your agent — then describe targets in plain English.
All active scanning commands in bugbounty-hunter.sh verify scope against programs/*.md before touching the target. The passive Shodan CTL integration is optional and uses the pinned vendor/shodan_reconsx submodule when recons101x is not installed. Its hostnames are scope-filtered before any HTTP probing.
