## What it is
Scilla is a Go-based command-line information gathering (recon) tool for penetration testers and bug bounty hunters. It enumerates DNS records, subdomains, open ports, and directories on a target.

## Use cases
- enumerate subdomains of a target domain
- scan a host for open ports
- perform DNS enumeration during recon
- find hidden directories on a web server
- gather attack surface info for a bug bounty target
- export recon results to json or html

## When to choose
- you need a single lightweight CLI covering DNS, subdomain, port, and directory enumeration
- you want a fast Go-based recon tool installable via brew, snap, or go install
- you are doing bug bounty or pentest reconnaissance from the terminal

## When to avoid
- you need full vulnerability scanning or exploitation, not just enumeration
- you require a GUI or web dashboard for recon workflows
- you need large-scale distributed scanning beyond a single host's capabilities
