What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

A large structured penetration testing knowledge base containing 200+ skill methodologies covering recon, exploitation, lateral movement, and post-exploitation, plus curated dictionaries and payloads. Content is formatted to be executable by AI agents, making it usable both as human-readable cheatsheets and as machine-consumable security skills.

Use cases

• find wordlists for brute-forcing ssh or mysql services
• look up web exploitation methodology like SSRF or deserialization
• give an AI agent pentest skills for automated security testing
• study CTF web, pwn, and crypto challenge approaches
• reference Active Directory attack techniques like Kerberoasting
• get payloads for fuzzing and WAF bypass
• learn cloud and container escape techniques
• prepare for bug bounty recon and info gathering

When to choose

• you need a broad, structured reference of offensive security methodologies
• you are building AI agents that perform or assist with pentesting
• you want curated brute-force dictionaries and payloads in one place
• you practice CTFs or red teaming and want organized cheatsheets

When to avoid

• you need defensive-only security tooling or compliance checklists
• you want a runnable scanner rather than knowledge and dictionaries
• you require a formally licensed project (no license is specified)
• you need beginner-friendly tutorials rather than operational methodology
