A Python CLI tool that automates GitHub code searches using a curated list of dorks to find leaked secrets like credentials, private keys, and tokens in repositories. It can scan a single repo or all repos of a user/organization, including GitHub Enterprise instances.

Use cases

  • find leaked secrets in github repos
  • scan my organization for exposed credentials
  • audit github repositories for sensitive data
  • search github for leaked api keys and tokens
  • run github dorks for penetration testing
  • detect accidentally committed private keys

When to choose

  • you want an automated, dork-list-driven scan of GitHub repos for sensitive data
  • you need to audit your own or an organization's repositories for leaked credentials
  • you use GitHub Enterprise and want to search it for secrets

When to avoid

  • you need real-time secret scanning in CI or pre-commit hooks - use tools like gitleaks or trufflehog instead
  • you need polished output formatting or categorized dork results
  • you want broad platform coverage beyond GitHub
