AGENTS.md agentsB

AGENTS.md is agent-read markdown (agents) from usestrix/strix.

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# Strix — Agent Guide

Strix is an open-source autonomous AI pentesting tool. This file is for AI coding agents that want to **use** Strix (run security scans) or **contribute** to it.

## Using Strix from an agent

Install the agent skills for step-by-step workflows:

```bash
npx skills add usestrix/strix
```

- `penetration-testing-with-strix` — run a headless pentest against code, URLs, domains, or IPs and read results (covers both run modes below)
- `managed-pentesting-with-strix` — drive the managed app.strix.ai platform via REST (no local Docker/LLM needed)
- `fix-security-vulnerabilities-with-strix` — remediate findings and re-run Strix to verify
- `ci-security-scanning-with-strix` — add PR scanning to CI/CD (self-hosted CLI or managed app)

Target-specific workflows built on the same engine:

- `application-security-testing` — whole-product AppSec review: pick the right test per asset, then rank the results
- `web-app-penetration-testing` — black-box pentest of a live web app or staging site
- `api-security-testing` — REST/GraphQL APIs and the OWASP API Security Top 10 (BOLA/IDOR, authz)
…
