Hi everyone,

With the rise of AI agents and recent advancements in agentic research, my co-founder and I wanted to explore whether we could develop a tool to automate parts of penetration testing. This led to the creation of TARS a few months ago.

TARS is our attempt to automate parts of cybersecurity penetration testing using AI agents. Currently, we leverage CrewAI as our agentic framework and GPT-4 as our primary model. We've integrated tools that allow TARS to utilize Nettacker, RustScan, ZAP, Nmap, and web browsing via the Brave API & Selenium.

Recently, we decided to make TARS accessible to everyone without any restrictions, so we open-sourced TARS under the MIT license. We see the value in TARS's ability to generate general reports from surface-level scans and its potential to perform unique attacks based on the model you're using.

Since TARS is in early development and still experimental, we'd greatly appreciate your feedback.
