Start a Hunt from an Empty Chat

Start a Hunt from an Empty Chat

The quickest way to start on a new target. There is nothing to set up first.

Start a hunt

1. Open a new, empty chat.
2. In the Start a hunt card, enter the target, for example example.com.
3. Add scope notes if you have them. This is optional.
4. Click Start hunt.

XHack adds the target to Programs and starts mapping its attack surface.

Fill in the rest later

The target is now a program, so you can add its other details whenever you like: the out-of-scope list, rules of engagement and notes. Open Programs, select it and click Edit info. The AI reads these details before it hunts, so add them before a full hunt. See Programs.
