Strix are autonomous AI agents that act just like real hackers - they run your code dynamically, find vulnerabilities, and validate them through actual exploitation. 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.
# Install
pipx install strix-agent
# Configure AI provider
export STRIX_LLM="openai/gpt-5"
export LLM_API_KEY="your-api-key"
# Run security assessment
