Mentalist

Mentalist is a graphical tool for custom wordlist generation. It uses a chain-based approach where you define a sequence of transformations: start with base words (from files, keyboard walks, or manual input), then apply processors like case manipulation, substitution (leetspeak), appending/prepending characters, and combining multiple word sources. The visual interface shows you exactly how words transform through each chain link, making it easy to build complex generation rules without memorizing hashcat or John the Ripper rule syntax. Mentalist can output generated wordlists directly as plaintext files, or export the generation rules in hashcat or John the Ripper format for use during cracking sessions. This makes it particularly useful for creating targeted wordlists for engagements where you have some knowledge of the target's password patterns or organizational password policies.
