Inspiration

Penetration testing costs $15-50K per engagement. Solo developers, startups, and open source maintainers can't afford it. We asked: what if the Claude subscription you're already paying for could also be your security team?

Then we went further: what if two AIs fought each other over your code - one attacking, one defending and you could watch it happen in real-time?

What it does

Helios is an AI-powered security agent that autonomously finds, exploits, and fixes vulnerabilities. It features three modes:

  1. Adversarial Agents Arena - Two Claude instances battle in real-time. Red Agent scans your code, crafts custom exploits, and attacks a Docker sandbox. Blue Agent monitors logs, patches vulnerabilities, and deploys WAF rules. Swarm mode lets you pit multiple attackers against one defender.

  2. Supply Chain Attack Surface Analysis - Point Helios at multiple repos. It maps dependency relationships and identifies transitive attack vectors - vulnerabilities in one package that create exploitable paths in packages that depend on it. We tested this on Inkscape Web + django-cms and found 62 transitive attack vectors.

  3. Autonomous Scanner - Fast local scanning with static analysis, secret detection, dependency checking, and configuration auditing. Finds SQL injection, XSS, SSRF, path traversal, command injection, hardcoded secrets, and misconfigurations.
