About Osmedeus
Osmedeus is a workflow engine for offensive security that automates the entire reconnaissance and vulnerability assessment pipeline. It chains together subdomain enumeration, port scanning, web crawling, screenshot capture, vulnerability scanning, and notification into configurable YAML workflows. Osmedeus manages distributed scanning across multiple machines, deduplicates findings, and stores results in a searchable database with a web UI. It integrates dozens of tools (subfinder, httpx, nuclei, nmap, etc.) into coherent automated pipelines that run continuously or on-demand. Designed for bug bounty hunters and penetration testers managing multiple targets simultaneously.
About reconftw
reconftw is an automated reconnaissance pipeline that chains together best-of-breed security tools into a comprehensive, single-command recon workflow. Running reconftw against a target domain triggers a full pipeline: subdomain enumeration, DNS resolution, port scanning, web probing, screenshot capture, technology fingerprinting, URL collection, parameter extraction, JavaScript analysis, vulnerability scanning, and nuclei template execution. The tool installs and manages all its dependencies automatically, making it one of the easiest ways to get a professional recon pipeline running. Configuration is done through a single profile file where you can enable/disable specific modules and set scope boundaries. reconftw outputs organized results in a structured directory format with separate files for each recon stage. With over 7,000 GitHub stars, it is one of the most popular recon automation frameworks in the bug bounty community.
