Ahmed Allam 676738d8ff feat(models): refresh the recommended model list and docs examples
Add Claude Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.7 Flash, and Z.ai GLM-5.3 / GLM-5.3-Flash
to RECOMMENDED_MODEL_NAMES, add a Z.ai GLM frontier family so GLM-5.x is
accepted through OpenRouter and Novita routes, and drop the superseded
GPT-5.4, GPT-5.3-codex, Opus 4.8, Sonnet 4.6, Gemini 3.6 Flash, and
Qwen3.7 entries. Update the README, docs provider pages, quickstart, and
CLI hint strings to the same current models, including DeepSeek V4,
Kimi K3, and GLM-5.3.

title: "Introduction"
description: "Open-source AI hackers to secure your apps"
---
Strix are autonomous AI agents that act like real hackers—they run your code dynamically, find vulnerabilities, and validate them with proof-of-concepts. Built for developers and security teams who need fast, accurate security testing without the overhead of manual pentesting or the false positives of static analysis tools.

## Use Cases
- **Application Security Testing** — Detect and validate critical vulnerabilities in your applications
- **Rapid Penetration Testing** — Get penetration tests done in hours, not weeks
- **Bug Bounty Automation** — Automate research and generate PoCs for faster reporting
- **CI/CD Integration** — Block vulnerabilities before they reach production
## Key Capabilities
- **Full hacker toolkit** — Browser automation, HTTP proxy, terminal, Python runtime
- **Real validation** — PoCs, not false positives
- **Multi-agent orchestration** — Specialized agents collaborate on complex targets
- **Developer-first CLI** — Interactive TUI or headless mode for automation
## Security Tools
Strix agents come equipped with a comprehensive toolkit:
| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| HTTP Proxy | Full request/response manipulation and analysis |
| Browser Automation | Multi-tab browser for XSS, CSRF, auth flow testing |
| Terminal | Interactive shells for command execution |
| Python Runtime | Custom exploit development and validation |
| Reconnaissance | Automated OSINT and attack surface mapping |
| Code Analysis | Static and dynamic analysis capabilities |
## Vulnerability Coverage
| Category | Examples |
|----------|----------|
| Access Control | IDOR, privilege escalation, auth bypass |
| Injection | SQL, NoSQL, command injection |
| Server-Side | SSRF, XXE, deserialization |
| Client-Side | XSS, prototype pollution, DOM vulnerabilities |
| Business Logic | Race conditions, workflow manipulation |
| Authentication | JWT vulnerabilities, session management |
| Infrastructure | Misconfigurations, exposed services |
## Multi-Agent Architecture
Strix uses a graph of specialized agents for comprehensive security testing:
- **Distributed Workflows** — Specialized agents for different attacks and assets
- **Scalable Testing** — Parallel execution for fast comprehensive coverage
- **Dynamic Coordination** — Agents collaborate and share discoveries
## Quick Example
```bash
# Install
curl -sSL https://strix.ai/install | bash
# Configure
export STRIX_LLM="openai/gpt-5.6"
export LLM_API_KEY="your-api-key"
# Scan
strix --target ./your-app
```
