A Python CLI tool that lets users add or remove Kali Linux repositories on other Debian-based systems (like Ubuntu) and install Kali Linux security tools via an interactive menu. It automates the otherwise manual process of sourcing Kali's tool repositories.
Use cases
- install kali linux tools on ubuntu
- add kali repositories to my debian system
- install all pentesting tools automatically
- remove kali repos before system update
- get metasploit and armitage on non-kali distro
When to choose
- you want Kali tools on Ubuntu or another Debian-based distro without reinstalling
- you prefer a simple menu-driven installer over manual apt repository setup
When to avoid
- you already run Kali Linux
- you need a maintained, actively updated toolchain (project is in maintenance mode)
- you are on a non-Debian system or cannot use Python 2.7
