***

Vigolium provides two complementary scanning modes:

- **Native Scan** (`vigolium scan`): **Fast, powerful, and flexible.** Deterministic, multi-phase scanning with 317 modules across content discovery, browser/SPA spidering, and active/passive audit, covering injection, access control, file/path, API/protocol, framework-specific, cloud/infra, and out-of-band (OAST) vulnerability classes.

- **Agentic Scan** (`vigolium agent`): **Thoroughly audits your codebase.** AI-driven scanning that autonomously plans attacks, selects modules, generates custom extensions, and triages results, combining [deep source-code audit](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium-audit) with autonomous and targeted vulnerability scanning.


## Installation

### Quick Install (Recommended)

```bash
curl -fsSL https://vigolium.com/install.sh | bash
```

### [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@vigolium/vigolium)

```bash
npm install -g @vigolium/vigolium
```

### Windows

The npm install above works on Windows. Alternatively, download
`vigolium_<version>_windows_amd64.zip` from the
[releases page](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium/releases), extract it, and
put `vigolium.exe` somewhere on your `PATH`.

> Windows ships as x64 only; on Windows ARM it runs under emulation. The shell
> installer above is POSIX-only, so `vigolium update` is not available on
> Windows — re-run the npm install or download the newer zip to upgrade.

<details>
<summary>Other method like Docker or Build from source</summary>

### Docker

```bash
docker pull j3ssie/vigolium:latest
docker run --rm j3ssie/vigolium:latest scan -h
```

### Build from Source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium.git
cd vigolium
make build         # build and install to $GOPATH/bin
```

Requires **Go 1.27+** and **bun 1.3.11+**. See [HACKING.md](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium/blob/main/HACKING.md#build-and-run) for prerequisites and build details.

## Key Features

### Native Scan

- **324 scanner modules**: 208 active (fuzzing) + 117 passive (pattern matching), covering OWASP Top 10 and beyond
- **Out-of-band testing (OAST)**: blind XSS/SSRF/command injection via interactsh callbacks with automatic payload correlation
- **Value-aware mutation**: classifies parameters by semantic type (integer, UUID, JWT, email) and mutates per intent
- **Multi-phase pipeline**: external harvesting, content discovery (Deparos), browser/SPA spidering (Spitolas), and audit, controlled by strategy presets and scanning profiles
- **Flexible inputs**: URLs, OpenAPI/Swagger, Postman, Burp Suite, cURL, Nuclei JSONL
- **Multi-session authentication**: inline sessions, session files, or full auth configs with login flows, token extraction, and IDOR/BOLA testing
- **JavaScript extensions**: custom modules and hooks via embedded JS engine with session-aware HTTP APIs
- **Scalable & reportable**: concurrent worker pool with per-host rate limiting, hybrid in-memory/disk/Redis queue, and self-contained HTML reports

### Agentic Scan

- **In-process olium runtime**: every agent mode runs on the native Go `pkg/olium` engine: turn-based loop, built-in tool registry, skills support, and pluggable provider drivers (no subprocess SDK pools)
- **Autopilot**: agent autonomously discovers endpoints, runs scans, and triages findings, with optional multi-specialist pipeline and session resume
- **Swarm**: master agent selects modules, generates custom JS attack extensions, runs code audit + SAST, executes scans, and triages results; targeted or full-scope (`--discover`), with `--diff`/`--last-commits` for change-focused runs
- **Source-audit drivers**: `audit`, `piolium`, and the unified `audit` dispatcher run foreground source-code audits sharing one finding schema and DB tagging
- **Query mode**: single-shot prompts for code review, endpoint discovery, and secret detection
- **Pluggable providers**: `openai-compatible` (default), `openai-codex-oauth`, `openai-api-key`, `openai-responses`, `anthropic-api-key`, `anthropic-oauth`, `anthropic-cli`, `anthropic-compatible`, `anthropic-vertex`, `google-vertex`. Same modes exposed over the REST API with SSE streaming and an OpenAI-compatible chat endpoint

## Quick Start: Native Scan

```bash
# Scan a single target (default: balanced strategy)
vigolium scan -t https://example.com

# Scan with a strategy preset
vigolium scan -t https://example.com --strategy deep

# Scan specific modules only
vigolium scan -t https://example.com -m xss-reflected,sqli-error

# Scan from an OpenAPI spec
vigolium scan -T openapi.yaml -I openapi

# Pipe URLs from stdin
cat urls.txt | vigolium scan

# Run a single phase directly
vigolium run discovery -t https://example.com

# Generate an HTML report
vigolium scan -t https://example.com --only discovery --format html -o report.html
```

See the [architecture overview](https://docs.vigolium.com/architecture/overview) for the full pipeline and the [strategies guide](https://docs.vigolium.com/native-scan/strategies) for strategies, profiles, and pace configuration. For a quick command reference, see [docs.vigolium.com/getting-started/cheat-sheet](https://docs.vigolium.com/getting-started/cheat-sheet).

## Server Mode

```bash
# Start API server with authentication
vigolium server -k my-secret-key

# Enable transparent HTTP proxy for traffic recording
vigolium server -k my-key --ingest-proxy-port 9003

# Auto-scan ingested traffic
vigolium server -k my-key --scan-on-receive
```

```bash
# Ingest traffic to a running server
cat urls.txt | vigolium ingest -s http://localhost:9002

# Ingest an OpenAPI spec
vigolium ingest -s http://localhost:9002 -i api.yaml -I openapi
```

See [running the server](https://docs.vigolium.com/server-mode/running-the-server) for server setup, [ingestion](https://docs.vigolium.com/server-mode/ingestion) for ingestion workflows, and the [API overview](https://docs.vigolium.com/api-overview) for the full REST API reference.

> **Proxy integrations**: forward live proxy traffic to a running Vigolium server with the [burp-vigolium](https://github.com/vigolium/burp-vigolium) extension for Burp Suite or the [caido-vigolium](https://github.com/vigolium/caido-vigolium) plugin for Caido. Both serve the same bridge protocol (`-B/--burp-bridge-url`, alias `--caido-bridge-url`), and ingested traffic is labelled with the proxy it came from.

## Authenticated Scanning

Vigolium supports multi-session authenticated scanning for IDOR/BOLA testing and privilege escalation checks:

```bash
# Inline session via CLI flag (name:Header:value)
vigolium scan -t https://example.com \
  --auth "admin:Cookie:session_id=abc123" \
  --auth "user:Cookie:session_id=xyz789"

# Load session(s) from a YAML/JSON file
vigolium scan -t https://example.com --auth-file ./admin-session.yaml

# Auth file with an automated login flow (token extraction, etc.)
vigolium scan -t https://example.com --auth-file ./login-flow.yaml

# Add custom headers (works with sessions)
vigolium scan -t https://example.com -H "Authorization: Bearer token123"
```

Auth files support static headers, bearer tokens, and automated login flows with token extraction from cookies, JSON responses, or headers. Preset examples are available in `public/presets/sessions/`. See the [authentication guide](https://docs.vigolium.com/native-scan/authentication) for the full guide.

> The `--auth` / `--auth-file` flags were previously named `--session` / `--session-file`. The old names still work as deprecated aliases.

## Agentic Scan

AI-driven scanning where agents autonomously plan, execute, and triage vulnerability assessments with the native scan engine underneath:

```bash
# Autopilot: autonomous AI-driven scanning (in-process olium engine)
vigolium agent autopilot -t https://example.com
vigolium agent autopilot -t https://example.com --source ./src --prompt "focus on auth bypass"
vigolium agent autopilot -t https://example.com --diff main...feature/auth   # diff-focused
vigolium agent autopilot -t https://example.com --intensity deep             # preset bundle

# Swarm: AI-guided targeted or full-scope vulnerability scanning
vigolium agent swarm -t https://example.com/api/users --vuln-type sqli
vigolium agent swarm -t https://example.com --discover                       # full-scope
vigolium agent swarm -t https://example.com --source ./src --discover        # source-aware full-scope
vigolium agent swarm --input "curl -X POST https://example.com/api/login -d '{\"user\":\"admin\"}'"

# Source-audit drivers (separate harness, do not route through olium)
vigolium agent audit --source ./src                                  # default: auto (audit, fall back to piolium)
vigolium agent audit --source ./src --driver audit --mode deep       # vigolium-audit only (claude/codex)
vigolium agent audit --source ./src --driver piolium --mode balanced # Pi-native (pi extension) only
vigolium agent audit --source ./src --driver both                    # audit then piolium, back-to-back
vigolium agent audit --source ./src --modes deep,confirm             # chain modes (same as --intensity deep)
vigolium agent audit --source ./src -S --output-dir ./audit-out      # throwaway DB + bundled HTML report
vigolium audit --source ./src                                        # top-level alias

# Direct olium access (TUI or headless)
vigolium ol                             # launch the olium TUI
vigolium ol --prompt "..."              # one-shot prompt (-p implies headless)
```

Agentic scan modes:
- **Autopilot**: autonomous scanning. CLI calls `pkg/olium/autopilot.Run` directly; the server adds vigolium-audit prep, auth setup, and a frozen context bundle around the same loop
- **Swarm**: AI-guided vulnerability scanning supporting targeted single-request and full-scope (`--discover`). Master agent analyzes inputs, selects modules, generates custom JS extensions, runs code audit and SAST, executes scans, and triages results
- **Audit**: source-code audit via `vigolium agent audit` — a unified dispatcher that runs the embedded **vigolium-audit** (claude/codex) and/or **piolium** (Pi-native) harnesses, selected with `--driver {auto|both|audit|piolium}` (default `auto`: preflight the audit leg and run it when the resolved `claude`/`codex` CLI is on PATH, the binary is embedded, and the chain has an audit-supported mode; otherwise fall back to piolium without launching audit. A mid-run audit failure surfaces rather than switching drivers). Separate harnesses; **do not** route through olium. Per-driver child rows under one parent AgenticScan with post-pass findings dedup. There is no standalone `agent piolium` subcommand — piolium runs via `--driver=piolium`

> **Standalone audit CLIs**: the agentic security audit also ships as standalone CLIs you can run independently of Vigolium: [vigolium-audit](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium-audit) (the harness behind `vigolium agent audit`) and [piolium](https://github.com/vigolium/piolium) (the Pi-native driver behind `vigolium agent audit --driver=piolium`).

See the [agent mode guide](https://docs.vigolium.com/agentic-scan/agent-mode) for the full guide.

## ⚡ Vigolium Cloud Console

A cloud-based solution for teams that want the power of Vigolium without managing infrastructure. Console is the **upgraded, fully-featured version of Vigolium**, led by an **advanced autonomous agent** that drives the whole engagement — reasoning about the target, choosing its own attack paths, and confirming what it finds — with hosted scanning and shared results layered on top of the open-source core, so you can focus on fixing vulnerabilities instead of maintaining tooling.

## JavaScript Engine

Run JavaScript/TypeScript code directly or write custom scan modules and hooks without recompiling:

```bash
# Execute inline JavaScript
vigolium js --code 'let r = vigolium.http.get(TARGET); console.log(r.status)' -t https://example.com

# Run a JS file with timeout
vigolium js --code-file ./my-script.js -t https://example.com --timeout 60s

# Manage extensions
vigolium ext ls                # list loaded extensions
vigolium ext docs --example    # browse API with code examples
vigolium ext preset            # install starter scripts
```

The JS engine exposes session-aware HTTP APIs for authenticated testing:

```javascript
// Create a persistent session with shared cookie jar.
// post() takes a string body — serialize objects yourself.
let session = vigolium.http.session();
session.post(
  "https://app.example.com/login",
  JSON.stringify({ user: "admin", pass: "secret" }),
  { headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" } }
);
session.get("https://app.example.com/dashboard"); // cookies auto-sent

// Automated login flow with token extraction
let authed = vigolium.http.login({
  url: "https://app.example.com/api/auth",
  method: "POST",
  body: JSON.stringify({ username: "admin", password: "pass" }),
  extract: [{ source: "json", path: "$.token", apply_as: "Authorization: Bearer {value}" }]
});

// IDOR/BOLA testing across multiple sessions
let results = vigolium.http.authTest({
  sessions: { admin: adminSession, user: userSession },
  requests: [{ method: "GET", url: "https://app.example.com/api/users/1" }]
});

// Multi-step authentication sequences
let result = vigolium.http.sequence([
  { url: "/csrf", extract: [{ source: "cookie", name: "csrf_token", as: "token" }] },
  { url: "/login", method: "POST", body: "csrf={token}&user=admin" }
]);

// Parallel request batching (race conditions, IDOR)
let responses = vigolium.http.batch([req1, req2, req3], { concurrency: 10 });

// CSRF token extraction
let csrf = vigolium.http.csrf("https://app.example.com/form");

// HTTP request replay with variations
let varied = vigolium.http.replay(rawRequest, [
  { headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer admin_token" } },
  { headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer user_token" } }
]);
```

## Repository Layout

The `platform/` directory contains external tooling, UI Dashboard and is not part of the core scanner. No changes should be made to it.

## Benchmarks

Vigolium is continuously benchmarked against intentionally vulnerable applications and also heavily tested against real-world targets through bug bounty and responsible disclosure programs.

- **Self-hosted (Docker):** [DVWA](https://github.com/digininja/DVWA), [OWASP Juice Shop](https://github.com/juice-shop/juice-shop), [VAmPI](https://github.com/erev0s/VAmPI), [crAPI](https://github.com/OWASP/crAPI), [Vulnerable Java App](https://github.com/DataDog/vulnerable-java-application), [Vulnerable Nginx](https://github.com/detectify/vulnerable-nginx), [OopsSec Store](https://github.com/kOaDT/oss-oopssec-store) (custom Next.js app)
- **External (hosted):** [Acunetix TestPHP](http://testphp.vulnweb.com), [Gin & Juice Shop](https://ginandjuice.shop), [Testfire](http://demo.testfire.net)
- **XSS & multi-vuln:** [BruteLogic XSS](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium/blob/main/test/benchmark/xss_scanner), [XBOW](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium/blob/main/test/benchmark/definitions/xbow) (XSS, SQLi, SSTI, LFI, SSRF, XXE, command injection)

Run benchmarks with `make test-canary` (Docker apps) or `make test-integration` (XSS).

## Development

```bash
make build          # build and install
make test           # run all tests (auto-installs gotestsum)
make test-unit      # fast unit tests (-short, no external deps)
make test-e2e       # E2E tests (requires Docker)
make lint           # run linter
make fmt            # format code
```

See [HACKING.md](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium/blob/main/HACKING.md) for the full build guide, codebase map, and module development guide.

## Security

Vigolium is an offensive security tool, and two parts of it are intentionally permissive: **agent mode runs with no sandbox** (the LLM has full shell, file, and network access on the host) and **extensions can run arbitrary commands**. Run agent mode in a disposable container/VM scoped to the engagement, and treat untrusted extensions like untrusted code. See [SECURITY.md](https://github.com/vigolium/vigolium/blob/main/SECURITY.md) before you start, and report vulnerabilities in Vigolium itself privately to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]).
