Questions from the AI

When the AI needs something only you can answer, such as test credentials or an unclear scope boundary, a question card appears above the chat box. Pick an answer, type your own, or skip.

Questions from the AI

Sometimes the AI needs something only you can answer, for example:

test credentials for a login;
whether a host is inside the scope or not.

Instead of guessing, it asks you. A card titled Question from the AI appears above the chat box.

Answer a question

Do one of these:

Click one of the numbered answers to send it.
Type your own answer and press Send (or Enter).
Click Skip (or press Esc) to let the AI carry on with its default.

If you do not answer

The card shows how much time is left. You have 2 minutes.

If time runs out, the card closes and the AI carries on with the default shown under If you don't answer. Your run never sits waiting for you.

Answer from any screen

You can answer from the desktop app or the web console. Whichever answers first wins, and the card closes on both. See Desktop and web console in sync.

Good to know

Only share test credentials. Use accounts the program gives you for testing, never a real person's account.
Not sure about scope? Choose the safer answer, or check the program's page first. You can add what you learn to the program's Out of scope or Rules of engagement so the AI does not need to ask again. See Programs.

Rather not be asked?

Tell the AI to make its own decisions instead. See Go full mode.
