AUTARCH Development Log

Project: darkHal Security Group - Project AUTARCH

Session 1 - 2026-01-14

Initial Request

User Prompt:

Hello claude. Today we are building the framework for the darkHal Security Group's "Project AUTARCH". Right now all need to do is setup the frameworks main menu's and the LLM intagration using llamacpp and llama-cpp-python (the python packages are installed). the core c files are https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp. The framework will be written in python and besides running the LLM and the agent its only other function is to load python modules that do the work. In other words, this application is just the front end. Lets start with the main menu. The main menu should have a ascii banner that says "AUTARCH" with a tagline that says "By darkHal and Setec Security Labs." On first launch the application auto runs the setup module (we need to create this as well). The setup module will setup the autarch_settings.conf. This module controls the llamacpp settings

    '/{}/profile',
    '/user/{}/profile',
    '/channel/{}',
    '/c/{}',
    '/p/{}',
]

Workflow:

User enters just the domain (e.g., example.com)
User provides a known-existing username for testing
System probes all 17 common patterns
Shows which patterns return 200/301/302 responses
User selects the working pattern to add
Site is saved to custom sites

Example Usage:

Domain: fakeadult.com
Test username: knownuser

Testing 17 common URL patterns...

Found 2 working pattern(s):

  [1] /user/{}            (OK)
      https://fakeadult.com/user/knownuser
  [2] /u/{}               (redirect 302)
      https://fakeadult.com/u/knownuser

  [0] Cancel

Select pattern to add: 1
Site name [Fakeadult]: FakeAdult
[+] Added 'FakeAdult' to custom sites
    Pattern: https://fakeadult.com/user/*

Detection Logic:

Uses 5-second timeout per pattern
HTTP 200 = confirmed working
HTTP 301/302 = working (redirect)
HTTP 404/other = not working
Auto-selects detection method based on response

Files Modified

File	Changes
modules/adultscan.py	Added auto-detect (~90 new lines)

New Components

Component	Purpose
`COMMON_PATTERNS`	List of 17 common URL patterns
`auto_detect_site()`	Interactive auto-detection wizard

Notes

Auto-detect requires a known valid username to test against
Some sites may have rate limiting that affects detection
Falls back to manual add if no patterns work

Session 1 (Continued) - Bulk Import Feature

User Request

lets also add a bulk list function where the user can add sites to custom.inf and then it scans for new sites using autodetect

Work Completed

13. Bulk Import from File

modules/adultscan.py - Updated to v1.3

Added bulk import that reads domains from a file and auto-detects patterns:

New Menu Option:

  Site Management:
  [A] Add Custom Site (manual)
  [D] Auto-Detect Site Pattern
  [B] Bulk Import from File        <- NEW
  [M] Manage Custom Sites
  [L] List All Sites

Bulk Import File: custom_sites.inf

File Format:

# AUTARCH Adult Site Scanner - Bulk Import File
# Add one domain per line (without http:// or https://)
# Lines starting with # are comments

example.com
another-site.net
subdomain.site.org

Workflow:

User adds domains to custom_sites.inf (one per line)
Run Bulk Import [B]
System reads domains from file
Skips already-added domains
Prompts for test username (e.g., "admin", "test")
Auto-detects URL pattern for each domain
Adds working sites to custom sites
Reports failed domains
Option to clear import file when done

Example Session:

Found 5 domain(s) in custom_sites.inf:
  - site1.com
  - site2.net
  - site3.org
  ...

Will scan 5 new domain(s)

Test username: admin

Scanning 5 domains...

[1/5] Scanning site1.com...
  [+] Added Site1: /user/{}
[2/5] Scanning site2.net...
  [+] Added Site2: /profile/{}
[3/5] Scanning site3.org...
  [X] No pattern found
...

Successfully added 4 site(s)

Failed to detect patterns for 1 domain(s):
  - site3.org
Try adding these manually with [A] or [D]

Clear import file? (y/n): y
[+] Import file cleared

Features:

Creates template file if not exists
Skips domains already in custom sites
Uses first working pattern found (efficient)
Reports failures for manual follow-up
Option to clear file after import

Files Modified

File	Changes
modules/adultscan.py	Added bulk import (~120 new lines)

New Components

Component	Purpose

Session 2 - 2026-01-15

User Request

lets add a new option to defensive 'My System'. When user selects this option it prompts the user to run the full system audit, save the info to system.inf, and scores your security. Then it shows the results as options. when the selects one, it offers to use the llm to auto fix the issue or shows you the options on how to do it manually. Lets also add a CVE database, not just for the system audit, but for other modules as well. For my system menu, have the application detect the system the application is running on and download the database. have the app use https://nvd.nist.gov/developers/vulnerabilities to get the info.

Session 2 (Continued) - Snoop Project Integration

User Request

i have it installed here... and the full database is BDfull

Work Completed

1. Snoop Database Decoding

The Snoop Project stores its database in a base32-encoded, reversed format. Decoded the full database:

Decoding Process:

# 1. Read base32 encoded file
db = file.read()
# 2. Decode base32
db_bytes = base64.b32decode(db)
# 3. Reverse bytes
db_bytes = db_bytes[::-1]
# 4. Decode UTF-8
content = db_bytes.decode('utf-8', errors='replace')
# 5. Reverse string
content = content[::-1]
# 6. Parse JSON
data = json.loads(content)

Results:

BDfull: 5,366 sites decoded
Saved to: /home/snake/dh_framework/data/sites/snoop_full.json (1.95 MB)

2. Snoop Parser Added

Added _parse_snoop() method to core/sites_db.py:

Snoop Data Structure:

{
  "SiteName": {
    "country": "🇺🇸",           # Emoji flag
    "country_klas": "US",      # Country code
    "errorType": "status_code", # Detection method
    "url": "https://site.com/user/{}", # URL template

Session 3 - OSINT Improvements

Overview

This session focused on improving the OSINT username scanning functionality:

Adding configurable thread settings
Fixing malformed site names
Improving false positive detection
Cleaning up garbage sites from the database

Part 1: OSINT Thread Settings

User Request

we need to add a threads setting for the OSINT search. For some reason it thinks my device has 50 threads. So lets add a option in the settings menu to adjust max threads and lets have the application default to 8

Work Completed

1. Added OSINT Configuration Section (core/config.py)

New Default Config Section:

'osint': {
    'max_threads': '8',
    'timeout': '8',
    'include_nsfw': 'false',
}

New Method:

def get_osint_settings(self) -> dict:
    """Get all OSINT settings as a dictionary."""
    return {
        'max_threads': self.get_int('osint', 'max_threads', 8),
        'timeout': self.get_int('osint', 'timeout', 8),
        'include_nsfw': self.get_bool('osint', 'include_nsfw', False),
    }

2. Updated OSINT Modules to Use Config

modules/recon.py:

Imports get_config from core.config
Reads thread count from config instead of hardcoded 50
Also uses config for timeout and NSFW settings

def __init__(self):
    self.config = get_config()
    osint_settings = self.config.get_osint_settings()
    self.scan_config = {
        'max_sites': 200,
        'include_nsfw': osint_settings['include_nsfw'],
        'categories': None,
        'timeout': osint_settings['timeout'],
        'threads': osint_settings['max_threads'],  # Was hardcoded to 50
    }

modules/adultscan.py:

Imports get_config from core.config
Uses self.max_threads from config instead of hardcoded 10

def __init__(self):
    self.config = get_config()
    osint_settings = self.config.get_osint_settings()
    self.timeout = osint_settings['timeout']
    self.max_threads = osint_settings['max_threads']  # Was hardcoded to 10

Updated Settings Menu:

  Settings
  ──────────────────────────────────────────────────

  [1] LLM Settings
  [2] Metasploit Settings
  [3] Database Management
  [4] Custom APIs
  [5] AUTARCH API
  [6] OSINT Settings          <- NEW

  [7] View All Settings
  [8] Run Setup Wizard

  [0] Back

OSINT Settings Submenu:

  OSINT Settings
  ──────────────────────────────────────────────────

    Max Threads:    8
    Timeout:        8 seconds
    Include NSFW:   No

  Thread setting controls parallel requests during
  username scanning. Lower values = slower but safer.

  [1] Set Max Threads
  [2] Set Timeout
  [3] Toggle NSFW Sites

  [0] Back

New Methods Added:

Method	Purpose
`show_osint_settings()`	Display OSINT settings menu
`_set_osint_threads()`	Configure max threads (1-100)
`_set_osint_timeout()`	Configure timeout (1-60 seconds)
`_toggle_osint_nsfw()`	Toggle NSFW site inclusion

4. Updated "View All Settings"

Now includes OSINT configuration in the full settings view:

  OSINT Configuration:
    max_threads         : 8
    timeout             : 8
    include_nsfw        : False

Files Modified

File	Changes
core/config.py	Added `[osint]` section defaults, `get_osint_settings()` method
core/menu.py	Added OSINT Settings menu (option 6), 3 new config methods
modules/recon.py	Import config, use `osint_settings['max_threads']`
modules/adultscan.py	Import config, use `self.max_threads` from config

Configuration File Format

New section in autarch_settings.conf:

[osint]
max_threads = 8
timeout = 8
include_nsfw = false

Usage

To adjust OSINT thread count:

Main Menu → Settings (99) → OSINT Settings (6) → Set Max Threads (1)

Recommended values:

Low-end devices: 4-8 threads
Mid-range devices: 8-16 threads
High-end devices: 16-32 threads

Notes

Default changed from 50 to 8 threads for safer scanning
Setting persists in autarch_settings.conf
Both recon.py and adultscan.py now use the same config
Timeout and NSFW toggle also configurable from the same menu

Part 2: Username Scan Improvements

User Request:

we need improve the false positive detection on the username scan, as well as scan sites alphabetically. It also appears we have a naming issue. we have lots of sites that just say forum_name instead of the name of the sites. Also there are missing sites. Did you filter and remove sites like imgsrc.ru when you imported data?

Investigation Results

Malformed Names: Found 3,409 sites with bad names:
- {username}.domain style names (placeholder not replaced)
- Forum_sitename patterns
- site_vb1, site_xf, site_phpbb duplicates (forum software variants)
imgsrc.ru: NOT filtered - exists in database (2 entries)
Sites ordered by rank, not alphabetically

Work Completed

1. Database Cleanup (core/sites_db.py)

Added cleanup_names() method:

Fixes {username} style names by extracting from URL domain
Fixes Forum_name patterns by extracting actual name
Removes duplicate forum software variants (_vb1, _xf, _phpbb, etc)
Merges renamed entries if name already exists

Cleanup Results:

Renamed: 3,171
Merged:  84
Deleted: 407
Total removed: 3,662 malformed entries
Sites remaining: 7,824

2. Alphabetical Sorting (core/sites_db.py)

Updated get_sites_for_scan() method:

Added sort_alphabetically parameter (default: True)
Sites now scanned A-Z by default instead of by rank
Query excludes malformed names automatically

def get_sites_for_scan(
    self,
    categories: List[str] = None,
    include_nsfw: bool = False,
    max_sites: int = 500,
    sort_alphabetically: bool = True  # NEW
) -> List[Dict]:

SQL Filtering:

AND name NOT LIKE '{%'
AND name NOT LIKE '%_vb1' AND name NOT LIKE '%_vb2'
AND name NOT LIKE '%_xf' AND name NOT LIKE '%_phpbb'
AND name NOT LIKE '%_mybb' AND name NOT LIKE '%_smf'
AND name NOT LIKE '%_ipb' AND name NOT LIKE '%_generic'

3. Improved False Positive Detection (modules/recon.py)

Expanded NOT_FOUND_PATTERNS (30 patterns):

Registration prompts ("this username is available")
Soft 404 indicators ("oops", "sorry")
Suspension/ban messages
Generic error page patterns
Title tag checks for 404/error

Expanded FOUND_PATTERNS (23 patterns):

Account age/dates
Activity statistics
Activity timestamps
Profile content indicators
Verification badges
Cam/streaming site patterns
Social profile patterns
E-commerce/creator patterns

Added FALSE_POSITIVE_URLS list:

FALSE_POSITIVE_URLS = [
    '/login', '/signin', '/signup', '/register', '/join',
    '/404', '/error', '/not-found', '/notfound',
    '/search', '/home', '/index', '/welcome',
]

Improved Detection Logic:

Username variation checking (underscores, hyphens, dots)
Better handling of short usernames (extra validation required)
Short page content checks for generic indicators
API/JSON endpoint confidence reduction
Search query parameter detection
Confidence capping at 100%
Higher minimum threshold (45% vs 40%)

Files Modified

File	Changes
core/sites_db.py	`cleanup_names()` method, `sort_alphabetically` param, malformed name filtering
modules/recon.py	Expanded patterns, FALSE_POSITIVE_URLS, improved detection logic

Site Count After Cleanup

Metric	Count
Total sites	7,824
Malformed names	0
imgsrc.ru entries	2 (not filtered)

Notes

No sites were filtered during import - imgsrc.ru and other adult sites are present
Forum software variants were removed as duplicates (one entry per forum is sufficient)
Alphabetical sorting makes progress easier to track during long scans
False positive detection now more robust with 30+ NOT_FOUND patterns

Part 3: Other Category Cleanup

User Request:

its seems like their is alot of garbage sites in the other category

Investigation

Found 6,462 sites (82%) in "other" category with many issues:

Russian forum farms (ucoz, borda, at.ua, clan.su)
Search URLs (not actual profile pages)
Dead/closed sites
Wiki user pages
Invalid domains (google.com, gmail.com)
Duplicate entries

Work Completed

1. Added `cleanup_garbage_sites()` Method

Disables low-quality sites:

# Russian forum farms
ucoz.ru, ucoz.net, ucoz.com, at.ua, borda.ru, clan.su, forum24.ru, mybb.ru, do.am

# Search URLs (not profile pages)
search.php?author=, /search?, action=search, memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile

# uCoz profile pattern
/index/8-0-

Deletes garbage:

# Dead sites
CLOSEDEAD, CLOSED, __DEAD, _DEAD

# Duplicate markers
__2, __3

2. Added `auto_categorize()` Method

Auto-categorizes sites based on name/URL patterns:

tech: github, stackoverflow, hackerone, etc.
gaming: twitch, steam, xbox, playstation, etc.
art: 500px, flickr, deviantart, etc.
forum: sites with forum/forums in URL
adult: pornhub, onlyfans, chaturbate, etc.
social: mastodon, minds, mewe, etc.
And more...

3. Added `remove_duplicates()` Method

Removes sites with identical URL templates.

4. Additional Cleanup

Disabled wiki user pages (/wiki/User:)
Disabled archive.org wayback URLs
Deleted invalid domains (google.com, gmail.com)
Disabled more search URL patterns

Results

Metric	Before	After	Change
Total sites	7,824	7,119	-705
Enabled sites	7,824	4,786	-3,038

New Methods in sites_db.py

Method	Purpose
`cleanup_garbage_sites()`	Disable Russian forums, search URLs, dead sites
`auto_categorize()`	Auto-categorize "other" sites by patterns
`remove_duplicates()`	Remove duplicate URL templates
`get_disabled_count()`	Get count of disabled sites
`enable_all_sites()`	Re-enable all disabled sites

Notes

Sites are disabled, not deleted (can be re-enabled)
"other" category now contains legitimate misc sites
Quality over quantity - 4,786 enabled sites vs 7,824 total
Use db.enable_all_sites() to restore all sites if needed

Session 3 Summary

Files Modified:

File	Changes
`core/config.py`	Added `[osint]` section, `get_osint_settings()`
`core/menu.py`	Added OSINT Settings menu (option 6)
`core/sites_db.py`	Added `cleanup_garbage_sites()`, `auto_categorize()`, `remove_duplicates()`, `cleanup_names()`, alphabetical sorting

Database Changes:

Metric	Original	Final
Total sites	8,315+	7,119
Enabled sites	8,315+	4,786
"other" category	82%	42%
Malformed names	3,409	0

Key Improvements:

Configurable OSINT thread count (default: 8)
Sites scanned alphabetically for easier progress tracking
30+ NOT_FOUND patterns for false positive detection
23+ FOUND patterns for profile validation
Auto-categorization of sites
Garbage site filtering (Russian forum farms, search URLs, wiki pages)

User Request

the username search still needs some tweaks. take a look at how social analyzer does it /home/snake/Downloads/OSINT/social-analyzer-main.zip and make ours more like that

Examined the social-analyzer codebase and identified key differences:

Detection System: Uses return: true/false pattern
- return: false + string found = user does NOT exist
- return: true + string found = user EXISTS
Rate Calculation: rate = (detections_passed / detections_total) * 100
Status Categories:
- good: 100% rate
- maybe: 50-100% rate
- bad: <50% rate
WAF/Captcha Detection: Filters Cloudflare and captcha pages
Random Delays: sleep(randint(1, 99) / 100) to avoid rate limiting
Retry Logic: Retries failed sites up to 3 times

Work Completed

1. Rewrote Detection System (modules/recon.py)

New WAF/Captcha Detection:

WAF_PATTERNS = re.compile(
    r'captcha-info|Please enable cookies|Completing the CAPTCHA|'
    r'checking your browser|just a moment|ddos protection|'
    r'access denied|blocked|security check|verify you are human',
    re.IGNORECASE
)

WAF_TITLE_PATTERNS = re.compile(
    r'not found|blocked|attention required|cloudflare|'
    r'access denied|security check|ddos|captcha',
    re.IGNORECASE
)

New Shared Detections (like social-analyzer):

SHARED_DETECTIONS = {
    'mastodon': [
        {'return': False, 'string': "The page you are looking for isn"},
        {'return': True, 'string': 'profile:username'},
    ],
    'discourse': [...],
    'gitlab': [...],
    'phpbb': [...],
    'xenforo': [...],
    'vbulletin': [...],
}

New Detection Logic:

Check NOT_FOUND_STRINGS (return: false patterns)
Check FOUND_STRINGS (return: true patterns)
Check if username in content/URL
Calculate rate as percentage
Determine status (good/maybe/bad)

2. Updated `_check_site()` Method

Key Changes:

Random delay: time.sleep(randint(5, 50) / 100)
Cloudflare detection via cf-ray header
WAF content pattern matching
Title extraction and analysis
Rate calculation: rate = (passed / total) * 100
Status determination: good (100%), maybe (50-100%), bad (<50%)
Retry logic for 5xx errors and connection failures (up to 2 retries)
Returns filtered status for WAF-blocked pages

Return Format:

{
    'name': site['name'],
    'url': url,
    'category': site.get('category', 'other'),
    'rate': '75.5%',      # Percentage
    'status': 'maybe',    # good/maybe/bad/restricted/filtered
    'title': 'Page Title',
    'is_tracker': False,
    'found': 5,           # Detections passed
    'total': 8,           # Total detections
}

3. Updated Display Logic

Real-time Output:

  [+] SiteName                https://site.com/user [100.0%]  (good - green)
  [?] OtherSite               https://other.com/user [65.5%]  (maybe - yellow)

Summary Categories:

Results Breakdown (social-analyzer style):
  Detected (good):     15
  Unknown (maybe):     8
  Bad (low rate):      3
  Restricted (403):    12
  Filtered (WAF):      5
  Tracker sites:       2

Files Modified

File	Changes
modules/recon.py	Complete rewrite of detection system, WAF detection, retry logic, rate calculation

Detection Patterns

NOT_FOUND_STRINGS (return: false):

user not found, profile not found, page not found
does not exist, no user, no such user
account has been suspended/deleted/banned
sign up, create an account, register now
there's nothing here, this page is no longer available

FOUND_STRINGS (return: true):

og:title, profile:username, user-profile
member-header, profile-header, user-info
followers, following, posts, joined
member since, last seen, last active
follow, subscribe, message

Feature	Before	After (social-analyzer style)
Detection	Regex patterns	String matching with return true/false
Confidence	0-100 score	Rate percentage
Status	High/Medium/Low	good/maybe/bad
WAF Detection	None	Cloudflare + captcha patterns
Delays	None	Random 50-500ms
Retries	None	Up to 2 retries
Filtering	None	Filtered status for WAF

Notes

Detection system now mirrors social-analyzer's approach
Rate calculation is more accurate than arbitrary confidence scores
WAF detection prevents false positives from Cloudflare pages
Random delays reduce rate limiting issues
Retry logic handles temporary failures
Filtered status clearly marks WAF-blocked results

Session 3 (Continued) - Verbose Output & Blackbird Import

User Request

you turned off username scan verbose results, make sure it shows realtime the site being scanned. Also import the sites from this application /home/snake/blackbird

Work Completed

1. Real-Time Verbose Output (modules/recon.py)

Added real-time progress display during username scanning:

# Show current site being checked (verbose)
print(f"\r{Colors.DIM}  [{checked}/{total_sites}] Checking: {site['name'][:30]:30}{Colors.RESET}", end='', flush=True)

Features:

Shows current progress counter [X/Y]
Displays site name being checked (truncated to 30 chars)
Uses carriage return \r for in-place updates
Dimmed color to distinguish from results
Clears line before printing final results

2. Blackbird Sites Import (core/sites_db.py)

Added import_from_blackbird() method to import sites from the blackbird OSINT tool.

Blackbird Data Format (wmn-data.json):

{
  "SiteName": {
    "main": "https://example.com",
    "uri_check": "https://example.com/user/{account}",
    "e_string": "not found",
    "e_code": 404,
    "m_string": "",
    "m_code": 200,
    "cat": "social"
  }
}

Import Method:

def import_from_blackbird(self, blackbird_path: str = '/home/snake/blackbird', verbose: bool = True) -> Dict[str, int]:
    """Import sites from blackbird application."""
    # Load wmn-data.json
    # Parse each site entry
    # Handle {account} placeholder -> {}
    # Handle name collisions by adding _bb suffix
    # Skip duplicate URLs

Name Collision Handling:

# Check if name already exists - if so, append source suffix
cursor.execute("SELECT id FROM sites WHERE name = ?", (name,))
existing_name = cursor.fetchone()
if existing_name:
    name = f"{name}_bb"  # Add blackbird suffix

Import Results:

First run: 77 new sites added, 573 skipped (URL duplicates)
After name collision fix: 91 additional sites added
Total from blackbird: 168 new sites

Files Modified

File	Changes
modules/recon.py	Added real-time verbose output in `_check_site()` loop
core/sites_db.py	Added `import_from_blackbird()` method

Database Statistics Update

Metric	Before	After
Total sites	7,119	7,287
Sources	9	10
Blackbird sites	0	168

Notes

Blackbird uses {account} as placeholder (converted to {})
Name collisions resolved with _bb suffix
Most blackbird sites already existed in database (from other sources)
Verbose output updates in-place without scrolling

Session 4 - 2026-01-15 (Continued) - Dossier Manager & NSFW Fix

User Request

in the OSINT section, lets add a new menu named Dossier. In dossier the options are Start New and View. What this module does is lets users view saved information from the recon module and lets you associate information such as the results from an email search and username search

Work Completed

1. Dossier Manager Module (modules/dossier.py)

Created a comprehensive OSINT investigation management system:

Menu Structure:

  Dossier Manager
  ──────────────────────────────────────────────────
  Saved dossiers: X

  [1] Start New Dossier
  [2] View Dossiers

3. Fixed NSFW Adult Site Detection

Issue: Adult sites like Chaturbate weren't appearing in results even with NSFW enabled.

Root Causes Found:

Inconsistent NSFW flags: 97 adult category sites had nsfw=0
Config not used: include_nsfw config setting wasn't being used as default

Fixes Applied:

Database Fix:

UPDATE sites SET nsfw = 1 WHERE category = 'adult'
-- Updated 179 adult category sites

Code Fix (modules/recon.py):

# Before: hardcoded default
include_nsfw = False

# After: uses config setting
osint_settings = self.config.get_osint_settings()
include_nsfw = osint_settings['include_nsfw']

Prompt Updated:

Now shows current config default (y/n)
Press Enter keeps default instead of overriding to 'n'

Session 4 (Continued) - Site Additions & Adult Site Fixes

User Requests

chaturbate.com should have user url like this https://chaturbate.com/fudnucker/ in the project directory add the sites from pred_site.txt also make sure imgsrc.ru is in the database chaturbate still isnt showing up. i think the issue is that a age confirmation appears

Work Completed

1. Fixed Chaturbate URL Format

Issue: Chaturbate URL was missing trailing slash.

Fix:

-- Deleted incorrect entry (no trailing slash)
DELETE FROM sites WHERE name = 'ChaturBate' AND url_template = 'https://chaturbate.com/{}'

-- Renamed correct entry
UPDATE sites SET name = 'Chaturbate' WHERE url_template = 'https://chaturbate.com/{}/'

Result: https://chaturbate.com/fudnucker/ (correct format)

2. Added Sites from pred_site.txt

Imported fanfiction and adult sites:

Site	URL Pattern	Category	NSFW
Fimfiction	`https://www.fimfiction.net/user/{}`	fanfiction	No
Inkbunny	`https://inkbunny.net/{}`	adult	Yes
ArchiveOfOurOwn	`https://archiveofourown.org/users/{}`	fanfiction	No
AdultFanfiction	`https://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/search/?&q={}&type=core_members`	adult	Yes
FanfictionNet	`https://www.fanfiction.net/u/{}`	fanfiction	No
Kemono	`https://kemono.su/artists?q={}`	adult	Yes

Notes:

Inkbunny was already in database
Created new "fanfiction" category
AdultFanfiction and Kemono use search URLs (direct profiles require numeric IDs)

3. Fixed imgsrc.ru Configuration

Issue: imgsrc.ru was categorized as "other" with nsfw=0.

Fix:

UPDATE sites SET category = 'adult', nsfw = 1 WHERE name LIKE '%imgsrc%'

Result:

Site	URL Pattern	Category	NSFW
imgsrc.ru	`https://imgsrc.ru/main/user.php?user={}`	adult	Yes
iMGSRC.RU	`https://imgsrc.ru/main/user.php?lang=ru&user={}`	adult	Yes

4. Added Age Verification Cookies

Issue: Adult sites like Chaturbate show age confirmation pages, causing scans to fail.

Solution: Added SITE_COOKIES dictionary with age verification cookies for 25+ adult sites.

New Code (modules/recon.py):

SITE_COOKIES = {
    'chaturbate.com': 'agreeterms=1; age_verified=1',
    'stripchat.com': 'age_confirmed=true',
    'bongacams.com': 'bonga_age=true',
    'cam4.com': 'age_checked=true',
    'myfreecams.com': 'mfc_age_check=1',
    'camsoda.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'livejasmin.com': 'age_gate=true',
    'pornhub.com': 'age_verified=1; accessAgeDisclaimerPH=1',
    'xvideos.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'xhamster.com': 'age_check=1',
    'xnxx.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'redtube.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'youporn.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'spankbang.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'eporner.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'rule34.xxx': 'age_gate=1',
    'e621.net': 'age_check=1',
    'furaffinity.net': 'sfw=0',
    'inkbunny.net': 'age_check=1',
    'hentai-foundry.com': 'age_check=1',
    'f95zone.to': 'xf_logged_in=1',
    'imgsrc.ru': 'lang=en; over18=1',
    'fansly.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'onlyfans.com': 'age_verified=1',
    'fetlife.com': 'age_check=1',
}

Implementation:

# In _check_site() method - add cookies based on domain
parsed_url = urlparse(url)
domain = parsed_url.netloc.lower()
for cookie_domain, cookies in self.SITE_COOKIES.items():
    if cookie_domain in domain:
        headers['Cookie'] = cookies
        break

5. Fixed Overly Aggressive WAF Detection

Issue: Chaturbate (and other Cloudflare-served sites) were being marked as "filtered" even when returning valid content.

Root Cause: WAF detection triggered on ANY Cloudflare-served site:

# OLD - Too aggressive
if resp_headers.get('server', '') == 'cloudflare':
    is_filtered = True

Fix: Only detect actual challenge/block pages:

# NEW - Check for actual challenge page content
cf_challenge_patterns = [
    'just a moment', 'checking your browser', 'please wait',
    'ray id', 'cf-browser-verification', 'cf_chl_opt',
    'enable javascript and cookies', 'why do i have to complete a captcha',
]
if any(p in content_lower for p in cf_challenge_patterns):
    is_filtered = True

# Only flag WAF patterns on short pages (likely error pages)
if self.WAF_PATTERNS.search(content):
    if content_len < 5000:
        is_filtered = True

Updated WAF Patterns:

# More specific - only actual challenge indicators
WAF_PATTERNS = re.compile(
    r'captcha-info|Completing the CAPTCHA|'
    r'cf-browser-verification|cf_chl_prog|'
    r'ddos protection by|verify you are human|'
    r'please turn javascript on|enable cookies to continue',
    re.IGNORECASE
)

WAF_TITLE_PATTERNS = re.compile(
    r'just a moment|attention required|'
    r'ddos-guard|security check required',
    re.IGNORECASE
)

Test Results

Username scan for fudnucker on adult sites:

Site	Status	Rate	URL
Chaturbate	maybe	60%	https://chaturbate.com/fudnucker/
AdultFanfiction	maybe	66.7%	Search results
BDSMLR	maybe	50%	https://fudnucker.bdsmlr.com

Chaturbate now successfully detected after all fixes applied.

Files Modified

File	Changes
modules/recon.py	Added SITE_COOKIES dict, cookie injection in requests, fixed WAF detection logic
data/sites/sites.db	Fixed Chaturbate URL, added fanfiction sites, fixed imgsrc.ru

Database Changes

Change	Count
Chaturbate URL fixed	1
New fanfiction sites	4
imgsrc.ru category/nsfw fixed	2
ChaturbateRU category fixed	1

Notes

Age verification cookies bypass consent popups without user interaction
WAF detection now only triggers on actual challenge pages, not CDN-served content
Fanfiction category created for fanfic sites (AO3, Fimfiction, FanFiction.net)
Sites using numeric IDs in URLs use search endpoints instead

Session 5 - 2026-01-19 - Username Scanner Improvements

User Request

we need to improve the username search. we are still getting a lot of false positives and missing alot of sites that should be a positive. Lets look at how a few differnt apps work, https://github.com/snooppr/snoop, https://github.com/OSINTI4L/cupidcr4wl

Research Conducted

Analyzed detection methods from two OSINT tools:

Snoop:

4 error types: message, status_code, response_url, redirection
Username validation (special chars, phone patterns, email extraction)
Retry logic with alternate headers
Exclusion regex patterns per site

CupidCr4wl:

Dual pattern matching: check_text (user exists) + not_found_text (user doesn't exist)
Three-state results: found (green), not found (red), possible (yellow)
Detection logic:
- If status 200 + check_text matches → Account found
- If status 200 + not_found_text matches → No account
- If status 200 + no matches → Possible account

Work Completed

1. CupidCr4wl-Style Detection Algorithm (modules/recon.py)

Rewrote _check_site() method with cleaner detection logic:

# Detection priority:
# 1. If not_found_text matched → NOT FOUND (return None)
# 2. If check_text matched + username in content → FOUND (good)
# 3. If check_text matched only → POSSIBLE (maybe)
# 4. If username in content + status 200 → POSSIBLE (maybe)
# 5. Nothing matched → NOT FOUND (return None)

Confidence Calculation:

if check_matched and (username_in_content or username_in_title):
    status = 'good'
    rate = min(100, 60 + (found_indicators * 10))
elif check_matched:
    status = 'maybe'
    rate = 50 + (found_indicators * 10)

2. Username Validation

Added validate_username() method:

@staticmethod
def validate_username(username: str) -> Tuple[bool, str]:
    # Checks:
    # - Not empty
    # - Min length 2, max length 100
    # - No invalid characters: <>{}[]|\^~`
    # - Email detection (offers to extract username part)

3. Site-Specific Detection Patterns

Added SITE_PATTERNS dictionary with tailored patterns for 20+ platforms:

SITE_PATTERNS = {
    'reddit.com': {
        'check_text': ['karma', 'cake day', 'trophy-case'],
        'not_found_text': ['sorry, nobody on reddit goes by that name'],
    },
    'github.com': {
        'check_text': ['contributions', 'repositories', 'gist-summary'],
        'not_found_text': ['not found'],
    },
    'chaturbate.com': {
        'check_text': ['broadcaster_gender', 'room_status', 'bio', 'following'],
        'not_found_text': ['http 404', 'page not found', 'bio page not available'],
    },
    # ... 20+ more platforms
}

Categories Covered:

Social: Reddit, Twitter/X, Instagram, TikTok, Telegram, Tumblr
Adult/Cam: Chaturbate, OnlyFans, Fansly, Pornhub, XVideos, Stripchat
Art: DeviantArt, ArtStation, Fur Affinity, e621
Gaming: Twitch, Steam
Dating: FetLife
Other: GitHub, YouTube, Wattpad

4. User-Agent Rotation

Added 6 different User-Agents for rotation:

USER_AGENTS = [
    'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 Chrome/120.0.0.0',
    'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 Chrome/119.0.0.0',
    'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 Chrome/120.0.0.0',
    'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:121.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/121.0',
    'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) Safari/605.1.15 Version/17.2',
    'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 Chrome/120.0.0.0',
]

5. Fixed Gzip Encoding Bug

Issue: Responses were returning garbled binary data.

Cause: Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate header caused servers to send compressed responses that urllib doesn't auto-decompress.

Fix: Removed the Accept-Encoding header:

# Before (broken):
'Accept-Encoding': 'gzip, deflate',

# After (fixed):
# Header removed - get uncompressed content

6. Database Pattern Updates

Updated detection patterns via SQL for major sites:

-- Reddit
UPDATE sites SET error_string = 'sorry, nobody on reddit goes by that name',
                 match_string = 'karma' WHERE url_template LIKE '%reddit.com/%';

-- Chaturbate
UPDATE sites SET error_string = 'HTTP 404 - Page Not Found',
                 match_string = 'live on Chaturbate!' WHERE url_template LIKE '%chaturbate.com/%';

-- GitHub, OnlyFans, XHamster, Pornhub, etc.

7. Fixed Chaturbate "Offline" False Positive

Issue: Offline Chaturbate streamers were being marked as NOT FOUND.

Cause: "offline" was in the not_found_text patterns, but offline streamers still have valid profile pages.

Fix: Removed "offline" from not_found patterns:

# Before (broken):
'not_found_text': ['offline', 'room is currently offline', 'bio page not available'],

# After (fixed):
'not_found_text': ['http 404', 'page not found', 'bio page not available'],

Test Results

Quick Scan (100 sites, username: torvalds):

Sites checked:    100
Time elapsed:     20.4 seconds
Found (good):     6
Possible (maybe): 16
Restricted:       7
Filtered (WAF):   2

Adult Sites Scan (50 sites, username: admin):

Sites checked:    50
Time elapsed:     14.7 seconds
Found (good):     9
Possible (maybe): 8

Chaturbate Verification:

fudnucker                -> good (100%)  ✓ Correctly detected
totally_fake_user_xyz    -> NOT FOUND    ✓ Correctly rejected

GitHub/Reddit Verification:

torvalds (GitHub)        -> good (100%)  ✓ 3 patterns matched
spez (Reddit)            -> good (100%)  ✓ 3 patterns matched

Files Modified

File	Changes
modules/recon.py	Rewrote detection algorithm, added username validation, site patterns, UA rotation, fixed gzip bug
data/sites/dh_sites.db	Updated detection patterns for major sites

Key Improvements Summary

Feature	Before	After
Detection method	Rate-based scoring	CupidCr4wl pattern matching
False positives	High	Significantly reduced
Chaturbate offline users	NOT FOUND	Correctly detected
Username validation	None	Length, chars, email detection
User-Agent	Single static	6 rotating agents
Gzip handling	Broken (garbled)	Fixed (uncompressed)

Notes

Detection now prioritizes not_found_text matches (if found, user definitely doesn't exist)
Site-specific patterns override generic fallback patterns
"offline" status on cam sites does NOT mean the profile doesn't exist
Removed gzip Accept-Encoding to ensure readable responses
Username validation prevents wasted requests on invalid inputs

Session 9 - 2026-02-03: MSF Module Search Fix

User Report

The issue we are having now is the metasploit modules do not show up in the offense menu, which means they are probably broken everywhere since the metasploit interface should be handling everything

Investigation

Initial Diagnosis

Verified Python module modules/msf.py loads correctly with CATEGORY = "offense"
Module appears in offense menu correctly
Issue was with actual Metasploit module searches returning empty or malformed results

Root Cause Discovery

Tested MSF interface search:

results = msf.search_modules('smb')
print(results[:5])

Output showed dictionaries with bytes keys:

{b'type': 'auxiliary', b'name': '...', b'fullname': 'auxiliary/admin/mssql/...'}

The code was trying to access r.get('fullname') but the actual key was b'fullname', causing None returns.

Work Completed

1. Added Recursive Bytes Decoding (core/msf.py)

Problem: Previous fix only decoded top-level dict. MSF searches return list of dicts where inner dicts still had bytes keys.

Solution: Added _decode_bytes() method to MetasploitRPC class:

def _decode_bytes(self, obj):
    """Recursively decode bytes to strings in msgpack responses.

    Args:
        obj: Object to decode (dict, list, bytes, or other).

    Returns:
        Decoded object with all bytes converted to strings.
    """
    if isinstance(obj, bytes):
        return obj.decode('utf-8', errors='replace')
    elif isinstance(obj, dict):
        return {
            self._decode_bytes(k): self._decode_bytes(v)
            for k, v in obj.items()
        }
    elif isinstance(obj, list):
        return [self._decode_bytes(item) for item in obj]
    elif isinstance(obj, tuple):
        return tuple(self._decode_bytes(item) for item in obj)
    else:
        return obj

Updated _request() method:

response_data = response.read()
result = msgpack.unpackb(response_data, raw=False, strict_map_key=False)

# Recursively normalize bytes to strings throughout the response
result = self._decode_bytes(result)

2. Fixed list_modules() API Method (core/msf.py)

Problem: list_modules() was calling module.list which doesn't exist in MSF RPC API.

Error observed:

MSFError: MSF error: Unknown API Call: '"rpc_list"'

Solution: Changed to use correct API method names:

def list_modules(self, module_type: str = None) -> List[str]:
    # Map module types to their API method names
    # The MSF RPC API uses module.exploits, module.auxiliary, etc.
    type_to_method = {
        "exploit": "module.exploits",
        "auxiliary": "module.auxiliary",
        "post": "module.post",
        "payload": "module.payloads",
        "encoder": "module.encoders",
        "nop": "module.nops",
    }

    if module_type:
        method = type_to_method.get(module_type)
        if not method:
            raise MSFError(f"Unknown module type: {module_type}")
        result = self._request(method)
        return result.get("modules", [])
    else:
        # Get all module types
        all_modules = []
        for mtype in ["exploit", "auxiliary", "post", "payload"]:
            try:
                method = type_to_method.get(mtype)
                result = self._request(method)
                modules = result.get("modules", [])
                all_modules.extend([f"{mtype}/{m}" for m in modules])
            except:
                pass
        return all_modules

3. Updated Agent Hal to Use Centralized Interface (modules/agent_hal.py)

Problem: Agent Hal was bypassing core/msf_interface.py and creating its own MetasploitRPC instance directly:

# OLD - Wrong approach
from core.msf import MetasploitRPC, get_msf_manager
manager = get_msf_manager()
self.msf = MetasploitRPC(
    host=manager.host,  # AttributeError: no such attribute
    ...
)

Solution: Updated to use the centralized interface:

def _ensure_msf_connected(self) -> bool:
    """Ensure MSF RPC is connected via the centralized interface."""
    if self.msf is None:
        try:
            from core.msf_interface import get_msf_interface
            self.msf = get_msf_interface()
        except ImportError:
            self.print_status("MSF interface not available", "error")
            return False

    # Use the interface's connection management
    connected, msg = self.msf.ensure_connected(auto_prompt=False)
    if connected:
        self.msf_connected = True
        self.print_status("Connected to MSF RPC", "success")
        return True
    else:
        self.print_status(f"Failed to connect to MSF: {msg}", "error")
        return False

4. Updated Agent Hal Module Execution Methods

Problem: Agent Hal was calling execute_module(type, path, options) which doesn't exist on MSFInterface.

Solution: Updated _execute_msf_module() to use run_module():

def _execute_msf_module(self, module_info: Dict):
    """Execute an MSF module based on LLM recommendation."""
    try:
        module_type = module_info.get('module_type', 'auxiliary')
        module_path = module_info.get('module_path', '')
        options = module_info.get('options', {})

        # Ensure full module path format (type/path)
        if not module_path.startswith(module_type + '/'):
            full_path = f"{module_type}/{module_path}"
        else:
            full_path = module_path

        print(f"\n{Colors.CYAN}[*] Executing {full_path}...{Colors.RESET}")

        # Use the interface's run_module method
        result = self.msf.run_module(full_path, options)

        if result.success:
            print(f"{Colors.GREEN}[+] Module executed successfully{Colors.RESET}")
            if result.findings:
                print(f"\n{Colors.CYAN}Findings:{Colors.RESET}")
                for finding in result.findings[:10]:
                    print(f"  {finding}")
        else:
            print(f"{Colors.YELLOW}[!] {result.get_summary()}{Colors.RESET}")

    except Exception as e:
        self.print_status(f"Execution failed: {e}", "error")

Updated quick_scan_target() similarly to use run_module().

All MSF operations now flow through core/msf_interface.py, ensuring fixes apply everywhere.

Overview

Complete rewrite of the MSF/Offense menu interface with new foundation libraries for option descriptions and module metadata. This session was split into two phases:

Phase 1a: MSF Settings Term Bank (core/msf_terms.py)
Phase 1b: MSF Module Library (core/msf_modules.py)
Phase 2: Offense Menu Rewrite (modules/msf.py v2.0)

Phase 1a: MSF Settings Term Bank

Created core/msf_terms.py - centralized definitions for all MSF options.

Structure

Each setting contains:

'RHOSTS': {
    'description': 'The target host(s) to scan or exploit...',
    'input_type': 'host_range',  # ip, port, string, boolean, path, etc.
    'examples': ['192.168.1.1', '192.168.1.0/24'],
    'default': None,
    'aliases': ['RHOST', 'TARGET'],
    'category': 'target',
    'required': True,
    'notes': 'For single-target exploits, use RHOST...',
}

Categories (14 total)

Category	Settings
target	RHOSTS, RHOST, RPORT, TARGETURI, VHOST, DOMAIN
local	LHOST, LPORT, SRVHOST, SRVPORT
auth	SMBUser, SMBPass, SMBDomain, HttpUsername, HttpPassword, SSH_USER, SSH_PASS, SSH_KEYFILE_B64
payload	PAYLOAD, ENCODER, EXITFUNC, PrependMigrate, AutoLoadStdapi
connection	SSL, VHOST, Proxies, TIMEOUT, ConnectTimeout
scan	THREADS, PORTS, CONCURRENCY, ShowProgress
session	SESSION, TARGET
database	DATABASE, DB_ALL_CREDS, DB_ALL_HOSTS
output	OUTPUT, VERBOSE, LogLevel
smb	SMBUser, SMBPass, SMBDomain, SMBShare
http	TARGETURI, VHOST, HttpUsername, HttpPassword, SSL
ssh	SSH_USER, SSH_PASS, SSH_KEYFILE_B64
execution	CMDSTAGER, WfsDelay, DisablePayloadHandler
file	FILENAME, RPATH, LPATH

API Functions

from core.msf_terms import (
    get_setting_info,       # Get full setting metadata
    get_setting_description, # Get just the description
    get_setting_prompt,     # Generate input prompt with default
    format_setting_help,    # Formatted help block for display
    get_settings_by_category, # Get all settings in a category
    get_common_settings,    # List of commonly used settings
    validate_setting_value, # Validate input value
    list_all_settings,      # List all setting names
    list_categories,        # List all categories
)

Validation Functions

def validate_setting_value(name: str, value: str) -> tuple:
    """Returns (is_valid, message)"""
    # Validates based on input_type:
    # - host: IP address or hostname
    # - port: 1-65535
    # - host_range: IP, CIDR, or range
    # - boolean: true/false/yes/no
    # - path: file path exists

Phase 1b: MSF Module Library

Created core/msf_modules.py - descriptions and metadata for common MSF modules.

Structure

Each module contains:

'auxiliary/scanner/smb/smb_version': {
    'name': 'SMB Version Scanner',
    'description': 'Scans for SMB servers and identifies the operating system...',
    'author': ['hdm'],
    'cve': None,
    'platforms': ['windows'],
    'arch': None,
    'reliability': 'excellent',  # excellent/great/good/normal/average/low
    'options': [
        {'name': 'RHOSTS', 'required': True, 'desc': 'Target IP(s) or range'},
        {'name': 'THREADS', 'required': False, 'desc': 'Concurrent threads'},
    ],
    'tags': ['smb', 'scanner', 'enumeration', 'windows'],
    'notes': 'Safe to run - passive fingerprinting...',
}

Module Count by Type

Type	Count	Examples
Scanners (auxiliary/scanner/*)	25	smb_version, ssh_version, portscan/tcp
Exploits	12	ms17_010_eternalblue, bluekeep, proftpd_backdoor
Post-exploitation	4	hashdump, local_exploit_suggester
Payloads	4	meterpreter/reverse_tcp, shell/reverse_tcp

API Functions

from core.msf_modules import (
    get_module_info,        # Get full module metadata
    get_module_description, # Get just the description
    search_modules,         # Search by name, description, tags
    get_modules_by_type,    # Get by type (exploit, auxiliary, etc.)
    get_modules_by_tag,     # Get by tag (smb, scanner, etc.)
    get_modules_by_platform, # Get by platform (windows, linux)
    get_module_options,     # Get module's key options
    format_module_help,     # Formatted help for display
    list_all_modules,       # List all module paths
    get_module_count,       # Count by type
)

Completely rewrote modules/msf.py from v1.1 to v2.0.

New Features

1. Global Target Settings

Pre-configure target settings before browsing modules:

self.global_settings = {
    'RHOSTS': '',   # Target IP/range
    'LHOST': '',    # Attacker IP (for reverse shells)
    'LPORT': '4444', # Listener port
}

Features:

Settings persist across module selections
Auto-filled when selecting modules
Domain-to-IP resolution with confirmation
Auto-detect LHOST from network interface

2. Module Browser

Category-based navigation:

MODULE_CATEGORIES = {
    'scanners': {'types': ['auxiliary/scanner'], 'color': Colors.CYAN},
    'exploits': {'types': ['exploit'], 'color': Colors.RED},
    'post': {'types': ['post'], 'color': Colors.MAGENTA},
    'payloads': {'types': ['payload'], 'color': Colors.YELLOW},
    'auxiliary': {'types': ['auxiliary'], 'color': Colors.GREEN},
}

Features:

Pagination (20 modules per page)
Two-column display for compact viewing
Combines library modules + live MSF modules
Navigation: [N]ext, [P]revious, number to select

3. Enhanced Module Details

Shows rich information from module library:

Full description with word wrapping
Author, CVE, reliability rating
Usage notes and warnings
Option to fetch live info from MSF

4. Streamlined Workflow

Set Target → Browse/Search → Select Module → Configure → Run

[1] Set Target     → RHOSTS, LHOST, LPORT, domain resolution
[2] Module Browser → Category → Page → Select → Details → Use
[3] Search         → Query → Results → Select → Details → Use
[4] Current Module → View options, set values, run
[5] Run Module     → Confirm and execute

5. Integration Points

# Uses term bank for help text
from core.msf_terms import get_setting_info, format_setting_help, validate_setting_value

# Uses module library for descriptions
from core.msf_modules import format_module_help, search_modules as library_search_modules, MSF_MODULES

Session 11 - 2026-02-14: Nmap Scanner & Scan Monitor

Overview

Added two new tools to the AUTARCH framework:

Nmap Scanner integrated into the OSINT/Recon module
Scan Monitor in the Defense module for detecting incoming port scans and brute-force attempts

1. Nmap Scanner (`modules/recon.py`)

Added [X] Nmap Scanner under the Tools section of the OSINT menu, with handler in run() and press-enter-to-continue support.

New Methods

_check_nmap() -> bool

Validates nmap availability via which nmap

nmap_scanner()

Submenu loop with 9 scan presets plus back option:

Nmap Scanner
──────────────────────────────────────────────────
  [1] Top 100 Ports       - Fastest common port scan
  [2] Quick Scan           - Default top 1000 ports
  [3] Full TCP Scan        - All 65535 ports (slow)
  [4] Stealth SYN Scan     - Half-open scan (needs root)
  [5] Service Detection    - Detect service versions (-sV)
  [6] OS Detection         - OS fingerprinting (needs root)
  [7] Vulnerability Scan   - NSE vuln scripts
  [8] UDP Scan             - Top 100 UDP ports (slow, needs root)
  [9] Custom Scan          - Enter your own nmap flags
  [0] Back

Prompts for target IP/hostname per scan
Custom scan option [9] allows user-provided nmap flags

Nmap Flag Presets:

#	Flags	Description
1	`--top-ports 100 -T4`	Top 100 ports
2	`-T4`	Quick scan (top 1000)
3	`-p- -T4`	Full TCP (all 65535)
4	`-sS -T4`	Stealth SYN
5	`-sV -T4`	Service detection
6	`-O -T4`	OS fingerprinting
7	`--script vuln -T4`	Vulnerability scan
8	`-sU --top-ports 100 -T4`	UDP scan
9	user-provided	Custom

_run_nmap(target, flags, description, timeout=300)

Validates non-empty target
Builds command: nmap {flags} {target}
Uses subprocess.Popen with stdout=PIPE, stderr=STDOUT for live streaming
Color-coded output:
- Green: lines containing "open" (open ports)
- Dim: lines containing "closed" or "filtered"
- Cyan bold: "Nmap scan report" header lines
Prints summary of all open ports found after scan completes
Offers to save full output to {target}_nmap.txt

Test Results

Tested Top 100 scan on 127.0.0.1:

Scan: Top 100 Ports
Command: nmap --top-ports 100 -T4 127.0.0.1

Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
  22/tcp   open  ssh
  53/tcp   open  domain
  80/tcp   open  http
  139/tcp  open  netbios-ssn
  443/tcp  open  https
  445/tcp  open  microsoft-ds
  631/tcp  open  ipp
  8000/tcp open  http-alt
  8080/tcp open  http-proxy
  8888/tcp open  sun-answerbook

Open ports found: 10

Scan completed in 0.05 seconds. Color coding, summary, and save prompt all working correctly.

2. Scan Monitor (`modules/defender.py`)

Added [8] Scan Monitor - Detect & counter incoming scans to the Defense menu, with handler in run() and press-enter-to-continue support.

New Imports

Added re, time, threading, datetime to the module imports.

New Methods

scan_monitor()

Setup and launch method
Checks tcpdump availability
Prompts for:
- Counter-scan enable (y/n, default y)
- Whitelist IPs (comma-separated)
Creates results/ directory if missing
Calls _monitor_with_tcpdump()

_monitor_with_tcpdump(counter_scan: bool, whitelist: list)

Core monitoring loop using tcpdump
Auto-detects local IPs to skip (127.0.0.1, hostname IP, all IPs from hostname -I)
Uses sudo tcpdump when not running as root (tcpdump requires packet capture privileges)
SYN-only filter: tcp[tcpflags] & tcp-syn != 0 and tcp[tcpflags] & tcp-ack == 0
Parses packets via regex: IP (\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)\.\d+ > [\d.]+\.(\d+):
Per-IP tracking dict with:
- ports: set of unique destination ports
- port_counts: dict of connection counts per port
- first_seen / last_seen timestamps
- alerted_scan: bool (one-shot alert)
- alerted_brute: set of ports already alerted
Detection thresholds:
- Port scan: 10+ unique ports within 30 seconds
- Brute force: 15+ connections to single port within 60 seconds
On detection:
- Red alert for port scans, yellow for brute force
- Appends to results/scan_monitor.log
- Launches _counter_scan() in daemon thread if enabled
Prunes stale tracker entries (>120s) every 5 seconds
Ctrl+C handler: kills tcpdump, prints summary (total packets, threats, IPs logged)

_counter_scan(ip, log_file)

Runs nmap --top-ports 100 -T4 -sV {ip} with 120s timeout
Parses open ports from output
Prints summary: [+] Counter-scan {ip}: N open ports (port,port,...)
Appends full nmap output to log file

Session 15 - 2026-02-15: Phase 4.8 — WireGuard VPN + Remote ADB

Initial Request

Integrate WireGuard VPN management from /home/snake/wg_setec/ into AUTARCH. Two purposes:

VPN server management — create/manage WireGuard clients from AUTARCH dashboard
Remote ADB for Android — phone connects via WireGuard tunnel, AUTARCH runs ADB tools remotely

Two connection methods over WireGuard tunnel:

ADB TCP/IP — native ADB over network (adb connect 10.1.0.X:5555)
USB/IP — Linux kernel protocol that exports USB devices over TCP via vhci-hcd module

Source Material

/home/snake/wg_setec/ — working Flask app (1,647 lines) with:

config.py — WG paths, subnet (10.1.0.0/24), keys, ports
wg_manager.py — key gen, peer add/remove, config gen, QR codes, status parsing
app.py — Flask routes (dashboard, clients CRUD, settings)

Work Completed

1. `core/wireguard.py` — WireGuardManager (~500 lines)

Singleton manager following core/android_protect.py pattern.

Constructor

self._wg_bin = find_tool('wg')
self._wg_quick = find_tool('wg-quick')
self._usbip_bin = find_tool('usbip')
self._data_dir = get_data_dir() / 'wireguard'
self._clients_file = self._data_dir / 'clients.json'

Config loaded from autarch_settings.conf [wireguard] section:

config_path, interface, subnet, server_address, listen_port, default_dns, default_allowed_ips

Subprocess Helpers

_run_wg(args) — runs wg binary, returns (stdout, stderr, rc)
_run_wg_sudo(args) — runs sudo wg ... for privileged commands
_run_cmd(cmd) — arbitrary subprocess wrapper
_run_adb(args) — runs adb binary via find_tool('adb')

Server Management

is_available() — checks if wg binary exists
get_server_status() — parses wg show wg0 for interface info, peer count
start_interface() / stop_interface() / restart_interface() — via sudo wg-quick up/down

Key Generation (adapted from wg_setec)

generate_keypair() — wg genkey piped to wg pubkey, returns (private, public)
generate_preshared_key() — wg genpsk

Client CRUD

get_next_ip() — increments last octet tracked in data/wireguard/last_ip
create_client(name, dns, allowed_ips) — generates keys, assigns IP, adds to live WG + config file + JSON store
delete_client(client_id) — removes from live WG + config + JSON
toggle_client(client_id, enabled) — enable/disable peer (add/remove from live WG)
get_all_clients() / get_client(id) — JSON store lookups
get_peer_status() — parses wg show for per-peer handshake, transfer, endpoint

Config File Manipulation

_add_peer_to_wg(pubkey, psk, ip) — sudo wg set with preshared-key via /dev/stdin
_remove_peer_from_wg(pubkey) — sudo wg set ... remove
_append_peer_to_config(...) — appends [Peer] block via sudo tee -a
_remove_peer_from_config(pubkey) — reads via sudo cat, removes block, writes via sudo tee
import_existing_peers() — parses wg0.conf [Peer] blocks + # Client: comments, imports to JSON

Client Config Generation

generate_client_config(client) — builds .conf with [Interface] + [Peer] sections
generate_qr_code(config_text) — QR code PNG bytes via qrcode + Pillow

Remote ADB — TCP/IP

adb_connect(client_ip) — adb connect {ip}:5555
adb_disconnect(client_ip) — adb disconnect {ip}:5555
get_adb_remote_devices() — filters adb devices -l for WG subnet IPs (10.1.0.*)
auto_connect_peers() — scans active WG peers (handshake < 3min), tries ADB connect on each

Remote ADB — USB/IP

usbip_available() — checks for usbip binary
check_usbip_modules() — lsmod | grep vhci_hcd
load_usbip_modules() — sudo modprobe vhci-hcd
usbip_list_remote(ip) — sudo usbip list -r {ip}, parses bus IDs and descriptions
usbip_attach(ip, busid) — sudo usbip attach -r {ip} -b {busid}
usbip_detach(port) — sudo usbip detach -p {port}
usbip_port_status() — sudo usbip port, parses attached virtual USB devices
get_usbip_status() — combined: available + modules loaded + active imports + port list

UPnP Integration

refresh_upnp_mapping() — reuses core/upnp.get_upnp_manager() to map port 51820/UDP

Singleton

_manager = None
def get_wireguard_manager(config=None):
    # Loads config from autarch_settings.conf [wireguard] section
    # Falls back to sensible defaults if section missing

2. `modules/wireguard_manager.py` — CLI Module (~330 lines)

Standard AUTARCH module: CATEGORY = "defense", run() entry point.

Menu with 18 numbered actions across 5 groups:

Server (1-4): status, start, stop, restart
Clients (10-15): list, create, view detail, delete, toggle, import
Remote ADB (20-23): TCP/IP connect/disconnect, auto-connect, list devices
USB/IP (30-35): status, load modules, list remote, attach, detach, list ports
Config (40-42): generate config, show QR (terminal ASCII), refresh UPnP

Helper methods:

_pick_client() — numbered selection from client list
_pick_client_ip() — input IP directly or select by number

3. `web/routes/wireguard.py` — Flask Blueprint (~200 lines)

Blueprint: wireguard_bp, prefix /wireguard/, all routes @login_required.

25 routes across 6 groups:

Group	Routes	Methods
Page	`/`	GET → render wireguard.html
Server	`/server/status`, `start`, `stop`, `restart`	POST
Clients	`/clients/list`, `create`, `<id>`, `<id>/toggle`, `<id>/delete`, `<id>/config`, `<id>/download`, `<id>/qr`, `import`	POST/GET
ADB	`/adb/connect`, `disconnect`, `auto-connect`, `devices`	POST
USB/IP	`/usbip/status`, `load-modules`, `list-remote`, `attach`, `detach`, `ports`	POST
UPnP	`/upnp/refresh`	POST

Notable: /clients/<id>/download returns .conf file as attachment, /clients/<id>/qr returns PNG image.

4. `web/templates/wireguard.html` — Web UI (~470 lines)

4-tab layout matching android_protect.html patterns.

Dashboard tab:

Status cards: interface running/stopped, endpoint, client count, USB/IP status
Server controls: Start/Stop/Restart buttons
Server info table: interface, status, public key, endpoint, listen port, peer count
Peers table: name, IP, status dot (online/idle/offline), handshake, RX/TX

Clients tab:

Create form: name, DNS (optional), allowed IPs (optional)
Clients table: name, IP, status, handshake, transfer, action buttons (View/Toggle/Delete)
Client detail section: full info table + Show Config/Download .conf/QR Code buttons
Config display with copy-to-clipboard

Remote ADB tab:

TCP/IP section: client IP dropdown, Connect/Disconnect/Auto-Connect buttons
Connected ADB devices table: serial, state, model
USB/IP section: module status cards, Load Modules button
Remote USB devices: client IP dropdown + List Devices, results table with Attach buttons
Attached ports table with Detach buttons

Settings tab:

Binary availability table (wg, usbip, vhci-hcd)
Import Existing Peers button
Refresh UPnP Mapping button

JS functions (~25): wgPost() helper, then wgServerStatus(), wgStartInterface(), wgRefreshPeers(), wgCreateClient(), wgViewClient(), wgDeleteClient(), wgAdbConnect(), wgUsbipAttach(), etc.

5. Integration Changes

web/app.py:

from web.routes.wireguard import wireguard_bp
app.register_blueprint(wireguard_bp)

web/templates/base.html: Added in System nav section after UPnP:

<li><a href="{{ url_for('wireguard.index') }}" ...>WireGuard</a></li>

autarch_settings.conf:

[wireguard]
enabled = true
config_path = /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf

Session 16 - 2026-02-15: Archon Android Companion App (Phase 4.9)

Overview

Created the Archon Android companion app framework in autarch_companion/. This is the phone-side app that pairs with AUTARCH's WireGuard VPN + Remote ADB system (Phase 4.8).

Name: Archon — Greek ἄρχων (ruler/commander), etymological root of "autarch" (auto + archon = self-ruler)

DashboardFragment — ADB & USB/IP Control

Key controls:

ADB TCP/IP toggle: setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555 && stop adbd && start adbd
USB/IP export toggle: usbipd -D to start USB/IP daemon
Kill ADB: stop adbd
Restart ADB: stop adbd && start adbd
Auto-restart watchdog: Handler posts every 5s, checks pidof adbd, restarts if dead
WireGuard status: reads ip addr show wg0 to check tunnel state

BBS Terminal — Veilid Integration Strategy

No official Kotlin/Android SDK for Veilid exists. Chose veilid-wasm in WebView:

BbsFragment.kt
  └─ WebView
      ├─ loads file:///android_asset/bbs/index.html
      ├─ JS: VeilidBBS class (placeholder)
      ├─ JS: command system (help, connect, status, about, clear, version)
      └─ @JavascriptInterface: ArchonBridge
          ├─ getServerAddress() → prefs BBS address
          ├─ getAutarchUrl() → "http://10.1.0.1:8080"
          ├─ getVeilidConfig() → bootstrap JSON
          └─ log(msg) → Android logcat

When VPS BBS server is deployed:

Bundle veilid-wasm WASM module in assets
Load in WebView via ES module import
Initialize Veilid core with bootstrap config
Connect to BBS server via DHT key
Route messages through Veilid's onion-style network

Theme

Network Discovery (added same session)

Added local network discovery so Archon can auto-find AUTARCH servers without manual IP configuration.

Server side — core/discovery.py (~280 lines):

DiscoveryManager singleton with mDNS + Bluetooth advertising
mDNS: uses zeroconf package to advertise _autarch._tcp.local. service with IP, port, hostname
Bluetooth: uses hciconfig/bluetoothctl CLI tools — sets adapter name to "AUTARCH", enables discoverable + pairable
BT security enforced: AUTH + ENCRYPT + SSP must be enabled before advertising starts
BT only activates if physical adapter present (hci0 in hciconfig output)
3 API routes: /settings/discovery/status, /start, /stop
Auto-starts on Flask app startup if [discovery] enabled = true

App side — service/DiscoveryManager.kt (~320 lines):

Three discovery methods, run in parallel:
1. NSD/mDNS — NsdManager.discoverServices("_autarch._tcp.") → resolves to IP:port
2. Wi-Fi Direct — WifiP2pManager.discoverPeers() → finds device named "AUTARCH" → connects → gets group owner IP
3. Bluetooth — BluetoothAdapter.startDiscovery() → finds device named "AUTARCH"
Listener callback pattern: onServerFound, onDiscoveryStarted, onDiscoveryStopped, onDiscoveryError
Auto-timeout after 15 seconds
Best server selection by method priority (MDNS > WIFI_DIRECT > BLUETOOTH)

UI Integration:

Dashboard: new "Server Discovery" card at top — status dot, method text, SCAN button
Auto-discovers on launch, auto-configures PrefsManager with found IP/port
Settings: "AUTO-DETECT SERVER" button runs discovery and fills in IP/port fields

Session 14 — 2026-02-28: MSF Web Runner, Agent Hal, Debug Console, LLM Settings Sub-Page

Phase 4.12 — MSF Web Module Execution + Agent Hal + Global AI Chat

Files Changed:

core/agent.py — added optional step_callback param to Agent.run()
web/routes/offense.py — added POST /offense/module/run (SSE) + POST /offense/module/stop
web/templates/offense.html — Run Module tabs (SSH/PortScan/OSDetect/Custom) + Agent Hal panel
web/routes/msf.py (NEW) — MSF RPC console blueprint (/msf/)
web/templates/msf.html (NEW) — terminal-style MSF console UI
web/routes/chat.py (NEW) — /api/chat SSE, /api/agent/run|stream|stop endpoints
web/templates/base.html — HAL global chat panel + MSF Console sidebar link
web/static/js/app.js — HAL functions (halToggle/Send/Append/Scroll/Clear) + debug console functions
web/app.py — registered msf_bp, chat_bp
web/static/css/style.css — HAL panel CSS, debug panel CSS, stream utility classes

Key technical details:

Module execution uses MSFInterface.run_module() → SSE streams output lines then {done, findings, open_ports}
Agent runs in background thread; steps accumulated in shared list polled by SSE stream every 150ms
HAL chat panel streams LLM tokens via ReadableStream pump (not EventSource — POST required)
Agent.run() step_callback overrides self.on_step for incremental streaming
MSF console uses run_console_command(cmd) → (ok, output) — not console_exec()
escapeHtml() is the correct global (not escHtml()) — bug found and fixed in offense.html

Phase 4.13 — Debug Console

Files Changed:

web/routes/settings.py — _DebugBufferHandler, _ensure_debug_handler(), 4 debug routes
web/templates/settings.html — Debug Console section with enable checkbox + test buttons
web/templates/base.html — floating debug popup with 5 filter mode checkboxes
web/static/js/app.js — full debug JS (toggle, stream, filter, format, drag)
web/static/css/style.css — debug panel dark terminal aesthetic

5 filter modes: Warnings & Errors | Full Verbose | Full Debug + Symbols | Output Only | Show Everything

Phase 4.14 — WebUSB "Already In Use" Fix

File Changed: web/static/js/hardware-direct.js

adbDisconnect() now calls await adbUsbDevice.close() to release USB interface
adbConnect() detects Windows "already in used/in use" errors, auto-retries once, shows actionable "run adb kill-server" message
Separate Linux permission error path with udev rules hint

Phase 4.15 — LLM Settings Sub-Page

Files Changed:

core/config.py — added get_openai_settings() method (api_key, base_url, model, max_tokens, temperature, top_p, frequency_penalty, presence_penalty)
web/routes/settings.py — added GET /settings/llm, POST /settings/llm/scan-models, updated POST /settings/llm for openai
web/templates/settings.html — replaced LLM section with sub-menu card linking to /settings/llm
web/templates/llm_settings.html (NEW) — 4-tab LLM config page

Local tab features:

Folder picker + Scan button → server-side scan for .gguf/.ggml/.bin files and safetensors model dirs
SafeTensors checkbox toggles between llama.cpp (full quantization/tokenizer params) and transformers backends
llama.cpp: n_ctx, n_threads, n_gpu_layers, n_batch, temperature, top_p, top_k, repeat_penalty, max_tokens, seed, rope_scaling_type, mirostat (0/1/2), flash_attn
Transformers: device, torch_dtype, load_in_8bit/4bit, trust_remote_code, use_fast_tokenizer, padding_side, do_sample, num_beams, temperature, top_p, top_k, repetition_penalty, max_new_tokens

HuggingFace tab: Token login + verify, model ID, provider selector (8 providers), custom endpoint, full generation params Claude tab: API key + model dropdown (all Claude 4.x) + basic params OpenAI tab: API key + base_url (custom endpoint support) + model + basic params

Session 15 — 2026-03-01

Phase 4.16 — Hash Toolkit Sub-Page

Files Changed:

web/routes/analyze.py — added import zlib, HASH_PATTERNS list (~43 entries), _identify_hash() helper, 6 new routes
web/templates/hash_detection.html (NEW) — 6-tab Hash Toolkit page
web/templates/base.html — added Hash Toolkit sidebar sub-item under Analyze

New routes:

GET /analyze/hash-detection → renders hash_detection.html
POST /analyze/hash-detection/identify → regex-based hash algorithm identification (hashid-style)
POST /analyze/hash-detection/file → compute CRC32/MD5/SHA1/SHA256/SHA512 for a file
POST /analyze/hash-detection/text → hash text with selectable algorithm (supports "all")
POST /analyze/hash-detection/mutate → append bytes to file copy, show before/after hashes
POST /analyze/hash-detection/generate → create dummy test files with configurable content types

HASH_PATTERNS coverage: CRC16/32, MD2/4/5, NTLM, LM, MySQL 3.x/4.x+, SHA-1/224/256/384/512, SHA3-224/256/384/512, BLAKE2b/2s, Keccak-224/256/384/512, Whirlpool, Tiger-192, RIPEMD-160, bcrypt, Unix crypt ($1$/$5$/6), scrypt, Argon2, PBKDF2, Cisco Type 5/7/8/9, Django PBKDF2, WordPress/phpBB, Drupal, HMAC-MD5/SHA1/SHA256

6 tabs in hash_detection.html:

Identify — paste hash → regex match → algorithm candidates with hashcat modes + threat intel links (VirusTotal, Hybrid Analysis, MalwareBazaar, AlienVault OTX, Shodan)
File Hash — file path → CRC32/MD5/SHA1/SHA256/SHA512 digest output
Text Hash — textarea + algorithm dropdown → hash output (supports "all" for every digest)
Mutate — append random/null/custom bytes to file copy → before/after hash comparison
Generate — create dummy files with configurable content (random/zeros/ones/pattern/custom) → hash output
Reference — static table of hash types with lengths and hashcat modes

Sidebar pattern: sub-item under Analyze with padding-left:1.5rem;font-size:0.85rem and └ prefix, matching Legendary Creator under Simulate

Bugfix — `modules/analyze.py` magic import

File Changed: modules/analyze.py

Changed bare import magic (line 13) to try: import magic / except ImportError: magic = None
Usage at lines 91-99 was already in try/except fallback — this just prevented the module from failing to load entirely

Bugfix — Debug Console server restart persistence

File Changed: web/static/js/app.js

_initDebug() now POSTs to /settings/debug/toggle to re-enable backend capture when localStorage indicates debug is enabled
Root cause: _debug_enabled in settings.py resets to False on server restart, but client-side localStorage persisted autarch_debug=1 — so the SSE stream started but no messages were captured

Bugfix — Android Protection Direct mode `'dict' object has no attribute 'strip'`

File Changed: web/templates/android_protect.html

apDirect() line 504: HWDirect.adbShell(cmd) returns {stdout, stderr, exitCode, output} object, not a string
Was passing whole object into raw dict → Python /parse route called .strip() on dict values
Fix: extract result.stdout || result.output || '' before storing in raw

Also hardened: web/routes/android_protect.py

_serial() now checks request.form (for FormData uploads like shield_install) and wraps in str() before .strip()

Session 16 — 2026-03-01: Threat Monitor Enhancement, Hal Agent Mode, Windows Defense, LLM Trainer

Phase 4.17 — Threat Monitor Enhancement (7-tab Threat Monitor)

Expanded the Threat Monitor from 4 tabs to 7, adding Network Intel, Packet Capture, and DDoS Mitigation capabilities.

Files Changed:

modules/defender_monitor.py — Added ~15 new methods + singleton get_threat_monitor()
web/routes/defense.py — Added ~25 new routes under /defense/monitor/
web/templates/defense_monitor.html — 3 new tabs (7 total), drill-down popups

New ThreatMonitor methods:

get_bandwidth() — bytes in/out per interface + deltas (PowerShell / /proc/net/dev)
check_arp_spoofing() — multiple MACs per IP detection (arp -a / ip neigh show)
check_new_listening_ports() — alert on new listeners since baseline
geoip_lookup(ip) — country/ISP/ASN via ipwho.is API
get_connections_with_geoip() — connection table enriched with geo data
get_connection_rate() — connections/sec trending
detect_ddos() — SYN flood / connection flood / bandwidth spike detection
get_top_talkers(limit) — top IPs by connection count
apply_rate_limit(ip, rate) / remove_rate_limit(ip) — per-IP rate limiting (netsh / iptables)
get_syn_protection_status() / enable_syn_protection() — SYN cookies
get_ddos_config() / save_ddos_config() — auto-mitigation config (data/ddos_config.json)
auto_mitigate() — auto-block offenders if thresholds exceeded
get_mitigation_history() / log_mitigation() — action log (data/mitigation_log.json)

New routes (under /defense/monitor/):

Monitoring: bandwidth, arp-check, new-ports, geoip, connections-geo, connection-rate
Packet Capture: capture/interfaces, capture/start, capture/stop, capture/stats, capture/stream (SSE), capture/protocols, capture/conversations
DDoS: ddos/detect, ddos/top-talkers, ddos/rate-limit, ddos/rate-limit/remove, ddos/syn-status, ddos/syn-enable, ddos/syn-disable, ddos/config (GET/POST), ddos/auto-mitigate, ddos/history, ddos/history/clear

7 tabs in defense_monitor.html:

Live Monitor — enhanced with bandwidth cards, ARP/port/DDoS counters, drill-down popups
Connections — existing, with clickable rows for connection details
Network Intel — bandwidth table, ARP spoof check, listening port monitor, GeoIP lookup, connections+GeoIP
Threats — existing threat list with drill-down
Packet Capture — interface selector, BPF filter, duration, start/stop, live packet SSE stream, protocol distribution, top conversations
DDoS Mitigation — detection status, top talkers, SYN protection toggle, rate limiting per IP, auto-mitigation config, mitigation history
Counter-Attack — existing

Drill-down popups (.tmon-overlay + .tmon-popup):

Click any stat in Live Monitor → modal popup with detailed data table
Connections popup with clickable rows → individual connection detail card
CSS added: .tmon-overlay, .tmon-popup, .tmon-popup-header, .tmon-popup-body, .tmon-stat-clickable, .tmon-detail-card, .tmon-row-clickable, .tmon-back-btn

Phase 4.18 — Hal Agent Mode + Module Factory

Wired Hal chat to the Agent system so it can create new AUTARCH modules on demand.

Files Changed:

core/tools.py — added create_module tool to ToolRegistry
web/routes/chat.py — rewritten to use Agent system with system prompt; agent-mode SSE streaming
data/hal_system_prompt.txt (NEW) — Hal's codebase knowledge (~2000 tokens)

create_module tool:

Validates category (defense/offense/counter/analyze/osint/simulate)
Validates code contains required module attributes (NAME, DESCRIPTION, VERSION, CATEGORY, def run())
Prevents overwriting existing modules
Writes to modules/{name}.py
Attempts importlib.util.spec_from_file_location to verify valid Python
If import fails, deletes the file and returns the error

Chat route rewrite:

Loads system prompt from data/hal_system_prompt.txt
Detects action requests → Agent mode vs simple chat
Agent mode: creates Agent(llm, tools), runs in background thread, streams steps via SSE
SSE events: thought, action, result, token, done, error

Phase 4.19 — Windows Defense Sub-Page

Files Created:

modules/defender_windows.py — Windows security module with firewall, UAC, Defender AV, services, SSH, NTFS, event logs
web/templates/defense_windows.html — multi-tab Windows defense UI

Files Changed:

web/routes/defense.py — added defense.windows_index route + Windows-specific API routes
web/templates/base.html — added Linux/Windows/Threat Monitor sub-items under Defense sidebar

Phase 4.20 — LLM Trainer

Files Created:

modules/llm_trainer.py — LLM fine-tuning module (dataset management, training config, adapter listing)
web/routes/llm_trainer.py — Flask blueprint for LLM Trainer page
web/templates/llm_trainer.html — LLM Trainer UI

Features:

Dataset management (create, list, delete JSONL datasets)
Training configuration (model, epochs, learning rate, batch size)
Adapter listing (LoRA/QLoRA adapters)
Training status monitoring

Refresh Modules Button

Files Changed:

web/templates/base.html — added "Refresh Modules" button in sidebar
web/static/js/app.js — reloadModules() function POSTs to /settings/reload-modules
web/routes/settings.py — POST /settings/reload-modules route calls MenuSystem.reload_modules()

Session 17 — 2026-03-02: System Tray, Dual-Exe Build, Installer Scripts, v1.5 Release

Phase 4.21 — System Tray Icon

Files Created:

core/tray.py — TrayManager class using pystray + PIL

Files Changed:

autarch.py — added --no-tray flag, tray integration in --web mode

TrayManager features:

Auto-generates dark circle icon with cyan "A" using PIL
Menu: status line, Start, Stop, Restart, Open Dashboard, Exit
Dynamic menu state (Start disabled when running, Stop/Restart disabled when stopped)
Uses werkzeug.serving.make_server for threaded Flask in background
SSL context passthrough for HTTPS
TRAY_AVAILABLE flag for graceful fallback on systems without pystray

Phase 4.22 — Dual Executable Build + Frozen Path Support

Files Created:

autarch_web.py — Windowless web launcher entry point (Win32GUI, no console window)

Files Changed:

core/paths.py — Frozen build support with dual-directory pattern
core/menu.py — Module loading scans both bundled and user module directories
web/app.py — Template/static paths resolve correctly in frozen (PyInstaller) builds

Frozen build architecture:

_FROZEN = getattr(sys, 'frozen', False) detection
_BUNDLE_DIR = Path(sys._MEIPASS) when frozen (read-only assets)
_APP_DIR = Path(sys.executable).parent when frozen (writable data)
New: is_frozen(), get_bundle_dir(), get_user_modules_dir()
get_config_path() copies bundled config to writable location on first run
Module loading: scans both get_modules_dir() (bundle) and get_user_modules_dir() (user), user overrides bundled

Phase 4.23 — Installer Scripts

Files Created:

installer.iss — Inno Setup script (lzma2, no solid compression for large files)
installer.nsi — NSIS script with MUI2, Start Menu, desktop shortcut, uninstaller

Files Changed:

autarch_public.spec — Rewritten for dual-exe build with MERGE/COLLECT, existence-filtered data files
setup_msi.py — Dual executables, LocalAppData install, model inclusion

PyInstaller spec details:

Dual Analysis: a_cli (autarch.py, console=True) + a_web (autarch_web.py, console=False)
MERGE() for shared library deduplication
Single COLLECT combining both executables
Existence filter: added_files = [(str(src), dst) for src, dst in _candidate_files if src.exists()]

Inno Setup details:

GGUF model stored with Flags: nocompression to avoid OOM (3.9GB, barely compressible)
SolidCompression=no prevents Inno from loading entire archive into memory
Model excluded from main recursive glob with Excludes: "_internal\models\Hal_v2.gguf"
GitHub release version excludes model (34 MB vs 3.9 GB)

Phase 4.24 — WebUI FOUC Fix

Files Changed:

web/templates/base.html — added inline critical CSS in <head>

Fix: Inlined dark theme colors, sidebar layout, and flex container styles directly in <style> tag before the external stylesheet <link>. Prevents flash of unstyled content (white background, unstyled sidebar) when the external CSS is delayed by self-signed cert negotiation or slow loading.

v1.5 Release

Release: https://github.com/DigijEth/autarch/releases/tag/v1.5

Assets:

AUTARCH_Setup.exe (34 MB) — Inno Setup installer, installs to %LocalAppData%\AUTARCH
AUTARCH_v1.5_Portable.zip (39 MB) — Portable build with autarch.exe + autarch_web.exe

Note: Hal AI model (Hal_v2.gguf, 3.9 GB) excluded from both downloads due to GitHub's 2 GB per-asset limit.

All 27+ pages tested — inline CSS + external stylesheet present, layout/sidebar/content structure verified on every route.

Session 18 - 2026-03-02

Phase 4.25 — Hal Chat Fix (Chat/Agent Dual Mode)

Problem: All Hal chat messages were routed through the Agent system (core/agent.py), which expects structured THOUGHT:/ACTION:/PARAMS: responses. Local GGUF models return plain conversational text, causing _parse_response() to fail with ValueError("No ACTION found") on every message. The agent retried 20 times, exhausted max steps, and returned Error: '"info"'.

Fix — Dual-mode routing:

Files Changed:

web/routes/chat.py — Split /api/chat into _handle_direct_chat() (streams tokens via llm.chat(stream=True)) and _handle_agent_chat() (existing Agent system). Mode selected by mode field in POST body ('chat' default, 'agent' for tools).
web/templates/base.html — Added toggle switch in Hal panel header (Chat ↔ Agent)
web/static/js/app.js — Added halAgentMode flag, halModeChanged(), passes mode in fetch body
web/static/css/style.css — Toggle switch CSS (.hal-mode-switch, .hal-mode-slider, .hal-mode-label)

Phase 4.26 — Agent Graceful Degradation

Problem: In Agent mode, models that can't follow the structured format would loop 20 times and error out.

Fix:

Files Changed:

core/agent.py — Added parse_failures counter. After 2 consecutive ValueError from _parse_response(), the agent cleans up the raw response (strips ChatML tokens) and returns it as a task_complete result instead of continuing to retry. First failure still gets one retry with format correction prompt.

Phase 4.27 — Frozen Build LLM Fix

Problem: Compiled exe reported llama-cpp-python not installed: No module named 'llama_cpp' because llama_cpp and llama_cpp_python were in the PyInstaller excludes list.

Fix:

Files Changed:

autarch_public.spec — Removed llama_cpp, llama_cpp_python, anthropic from excludes list
setup_msi.py — Same removal from excludes

Phase 4.28 — System Tray Icon

Problem: No .ico file existed — exe had no icon in Explorer/taskbar, and the tray icon relied on Pillow generating one programmatically at runtime.

Fix:

Files Changed:

autarch.ico (NEW) — Multi-resolution .ico (16-256px) created from icon.svg
icon.svg (NEW) — SVG source for the AUTARCH icon (anarchy-A in circle, cyberpunk neon style)
core/tray.py — Added _get_icon_path() to find .ico in both source and frozen builds. create_icon_image() now loads from .ico first, falls back to programmatic generation.
autarch_public.spec — Added icon=str(SRC / 'autarch.ico') for both exe targets, added .ico to data files
installer.iss — Added SetupIconFile=autarch.ico, UninstallDisplayIcon, IconFilename on shortcuts

v1.5.1 Release

Release: https://github.com/DigijEth/autarch/releases/tag/v1.5.1

Assets:

AUTARCH_Setup.exe — Inno Setup installer with icon
AUTARCH_v1.5.1_Portable.zip (51 MB) — Portable build

Version bumped in installer.iss, installer.nsi, setup_msi.py.
