PentestAgent

PentestAgent is an AI-powered penetration testing assistant that uses large language models to plan, automate, and execute security assessments against a target. It is distributed as Docker and Kali-ready images with built-in pentesting tools such as nmap, msfconsole, sqlmap, and hydra, and it provides a terminal UI to run tests in an isolated container. The tool is configurable to use OpenAI, Anthropic, or other LiteLLM-compatible providers via API keys and endpoints, enabling AI-driven vulnerability discovery and testing workflows.
