It operates as a multi-target port scanner, probing IP addresses, CIDR ranges, or hostnames in parallel, and automatically dispatches service-specific enumeration tools after port detection to gather detailed information about each open service. The tool distinguishes itself through a plugin-based scanning system that allows extending or replacing default port and service scans via a flexible plugin architecture. It provides real-time pattern-based output filtering, highlighting and extracting matching lines from command output using configurable regex patterns, and offers keyboard-driven verbosity control that lets users adjust the amount of live output displayed during a scan by cycling through detail levels without interrupting execution. All scan outputs, logs, and manual command suggestions are saved into a predictable folder hierarchy per target, organized for straightforward post-analysis. The documentation covers installation, configuration of plugins, and usage of the verbosity controls and pattern filtering features. ## Tags ### Security & Cryptography - [Reconnaissance Workflow Automation](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/security-cryptography/reconnaissance-workflow-automation.md) — Runs a full port scan and service enumeration pipeline against one or many targets with structured result storage. - [Regex Pattern Filters](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/security-cryptography/scan-filtering-tools/regex-pattern-filters.md) — Highlights and extracts matching lines from command output using global or per-scan patterns. - [Live Verbosity Controls](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/security-cryptography/vulnerability-scanning/scanning-template-libraries/automated-security-scan-triggers/scan-activation-controls/live-verbosity-controls.md) — Adjusts the verbosity of live scan output during execution using keyboard controls. ### Development Tools & Productivity - [Plugin Systems](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/development-tools-productivity/plugin-systems.md) — Allows extending or replacing default port and service scans through a flexible plugin architecture. - [Dynamic Verbosity Control](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/development-tools-productivity/logging-and-verbosity-tools/dynamic-verbosity-control.md) — Adjusts live scan output verbosity at runtime via arrow key input without restarting the scan. - [Scanning Plugin Registrations](https://awesome-repositories.com/f/development-tools-productivity/plugin-systems/custom-plugin-registrations/scanning-plugin-registrations.md) — Extends or replaces default port and service scans by creating or configuring plugins through a flexible plugin system.
