## What it is
parameth is a Python command-line tool that brute-forces GET and POST parameter names on web endpoints by comparing response differences. It helps discover hidden parameters on scripts during web application reconnaissance.

## Use cases
- find hidden GET parameters on a php script
- brute force POST parameter names on a web endpoint
- discover unknown query parameters during bug bounty recon
- enumerate parameters from php source code with grep wordlists
- filter dynamic page noise when fuzzing parameters

## When to choose
- you need a simple, scriptable CLI to fuzz parameter names
- you are doing manual web app pentesting or bug bounty recon
- you want to extract candidate parameter names from PHP source

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool with active development or a license
- you want a GUI or automated scanner with full vulnerability coverage
- you need modern fuzzing features like rate limiting or wordlist mutation

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: penetration-testing, http-client, web-scraping
- domain: security, penetration-testing, web-development
- platform: python, cli, windows
- tags: parameter-bruteforce, bug-bounty, recon, get-parameters, post-parameters, linux, macos
