AI Summary

Strix v0.3.1 introduces headless CLI mode for seamless automation and CI/CD integration, multi-target scanning for full-stack assessments, and improved visibility with per-severity vulnerability breakdowns. The release also increases the default iteration limit to 300 for deeper scans and adds agent iteration limit warnings.

Key Highlights

  • Headless CLI Mode (--non-interactive) for automation, scripting, and CI/CD workflows
  • GitHub Actions / CI Integration to block vulnerable code from merging
  • Multi-Target Scanning to scan repos, URLs, APIs in a single run
  • Per-Severity Vulnerability Counts with color-coded completion summary
  • Increased default max_iterations to 300 for deeper, more thorough scans

New Features

  • Headless CLI Mode (--non-interactive) - runs without REPL, prints real-time findings, exits with non-zero code on vulnerabilities
  • GitHub Actions / CI Integration - use in automation pipelines to fail builds if vulnerabilities found
  • Multi-Target Scanning - scan multiple targets (repos, URLs, APIs) in one run for white-box + black-box assessments
  • Per-Severity Vulnerability Counts - color-coded summary of findings by severity
  • Agent Iteration Limit Warnings - internal warnings when agents near configured iteration limit
  • Increased Agent Iteration Limit - default max_iterations raised to 300 for deeper scans

Full Release Notes

## 🚀 Strix v0.3.1 — Headless Mode, Multi‑Target Scans & More

### Changelog

Strix v0.3.1 introduces headless CLI mode for seamless automation, multi-target scanning for full-stack assessments, and improved visibility into scan results with per-severity breakdowns and agent iteration guidance. This release also includes stability improvements and raises the default iteration limit to support deeper scans and more advanced workflows.

### 🔥 Features

#### 🧠 Headless CLI Mode (`--non-interactive`)
Run Strix without the REPL — perfect for automation, scripting, and CI/CD workflows.  
Prints real-time findings and exits with a non-zero code if vulnerabilities are found.

#### ⚙️ GitHub Actions / CI Integration
Strix can now be used directly in automation pipelines to block vulnerable code from merging.  
Add it to your CI with a simple GitHub Actions workflow that fails the build if vulnerabilities are found.

#### 🌐 Multi‑Target Scanning
Scan multiple targets in one run — repos, deployed URLs, APIs, etc.  
Useful for:
- White-box + black-box in one scan
- Dev/staging/prod comparisons
- Full-stack and cross-component analysis

#### 📊 Per‑Severity Vulnerability Counts
Completion panel now includes a color-coded summary of findings by severity.

#### ⚠️ Agent Iteration Limit Warnings
Strix now sends internal warning messages to agents when they're nearing the configured iteration limit — nudging them to wrap up gracefully. This improves agent reliability, avoids abrupt stops, and helps ensure cleaner scan completion.

#### 🔁 Increased Agent Iteration Limit
The default `max_iterations` is now set to **300**, allowing agents to run deeper and cover more complex targets without early termination. Enables longer-running assessments and more thorough exploration of large apps or multi-component environments.
