Trickest CLI

Execute Trickest workflows right from your terminal.

About

Trickest platform is an IDE tailored for bug bounty hunters, penetration testers, and SecOps teams to build and automate workflows from start to finish.

Current workflow categories are:

• Vulnerability Scanning
• Misconfiguration Scanning
• Container Security
• Web Application Scanning
• Asset Discovery
• Network Scanning
• Fuzzing
• Static Code Analysis
• ... and a lot more

Library

Trickest Library is a collection of public tools, Trickest scripts, and Trickest workflows available on the platform. More info can be found at Trickest workflows repository <- (Coming soon!)

Installation

Binary

Binaries are available in the latest release.

Docker

docker run quay.io/trickest/trickest-cli

Authentication

You can find your authentication token on the Token page inside the Trickest platform.

The authentication token can be provided through either a string flag --token, a file --token-file, or an environment variable TRICKEST_TOKEN.

The token supplied as --token or --token-file will take priority over the environment variable if both are present.

Usage

List command

All

Use the list command to list all of your spaces along with their descriptions.

trickest list

Spaces

Use the list command with the --space or --url flag to list the content of your particular space; its projects and workflows, and their descriptions.

trickest list --space <space_name>

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--space	string	/	The name of the space to be listed
--json	boolean	/	Display output in JSON format
--url	string	/	URL for referencing a space

Projects

Use the list command with the --project or --url option to list the content of your particular project; its workflows, along with their descriptions.

trickest list --project <project_name> --space <space_name>

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--project	string	/	The name of the project to be listed.
--space	string	/	The name of the space to which the project belongs
--json	boolean	false	Display output in JSON format
--url	string	/	URL for referencing a space

Note: When passing values that have spaces in their names (e.g. "Alpine Testing"), they need to be double-quoted.

GET

Use the get command to get details of a particular workflow (current status, node structure, etc.).

trickest get --workflow <workflow_name> --space <space_name> [--watch]

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--space	string	/	The name of the space to which the workflow/project belongs
--project	string	/	The name of the project to which the workflow belongs
--workflow	string	/	The name of the workflow
--run	string	/	Get the status of a specific run
--watch	boolean	false	Option to track execution status in case workflow is in running state
--json	boolean	false	Display output in JSON format
--url	string	/	URL for referencing a space

If the supplied workflow has a running execution, you can jump in and watch it running with the --watch flag!

Execute

Use the execute command to execute a particular workflow or tool.

trickest execute --workflow <workflow_or_tool_name> --space <space_name> --config <config_file_path> --set-name "New Name" [--watch]

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--config	file	/	YAML file for run configuration
--workflow	string	/	Workflow from the Library to be executed
--max	boolean	false	Use maximum number of machines for workflow execution
--output	string	/	A comma-separated list of nodes whose outputs should be downloaded when the execution is finished
--output-all	boolean	false	Download all outputs when the execution is finished
--output-dir	string	.	Path to the directory which should be used to store outputs
--show-params	boolean	false	Show parameters in the workflow tree
--watch	boolean	false	Option to track execution status in case workflow is in running state
--set-name	string	/	Sets the new workflow name and will copy the workflow to space and project supplied
--ci	boolean	false	Enable CI mode (in-progress executions will be stopped when the CLI is forcefully stopped - if not set, you will be asked for confirmation)
--create-project	boolean	false	If the project doesn't exist, create one using the project flag as its name (or workflow/tool name if project flag is not set)
--machines	string	/	Specify the number of machines. Use one value for default/self-hosted machines (--machines 3) or three values for small-medium-large (--machines 1-1-1)
--fleet	string	/	The name of the fleet to use to execute the workflow

Provide parameters using config.yaml file

Use config.yaml file provided using `--config`` flag to specify:

• inputs values
• execution parallelism by machine type
• outputs to be downloaded.

The structure of you config.yaml file should look like this:

inputs:   # Input values for the particular workflow nodes.
  <node_name>.<input_name>: <input_value>
machines: # Machines configuration by type related to execution parallelisam.
  small:  <number>
  medium: <number>
  large:  <number>
outputs:  # List of nodes whose outputs will be downloaded.
  - <node_name>

You can use example-config.yaml as a starting point and edit it according to your workflow.

More example workflow config.yaml files can be found in the Trickest Workflows repository. (Coming Soon ✨)

Continuous Integration

You can find the Github Action for the trickest-cli at https://github.com/trickest/action and the Docker image at https://quay.io/trickest/trickest-cli.

The execute command can be used as part of a CI pipeline to execute your Trickest workflows whenever your code or infrastructure changes. Optionally, you can use the --watch command inside the action to watch a workflow's progress until it completes.

The --output, --output-all, and --output-dir commands will fetch the outputs of one or more nodes to a particular directory, respectively.

Example GitHub action usage

    - name: Trickest Execute
      id: trickest
      uses: trickest/action@main
      env:
        TRICKEST_TOKEN: "${{ secrets.TRICKEST_TOKEN }}"
      with:
        workflow: "Example Workflow"
        space: "Example Space"
        project: "Example Project"
        watch: true
        output_dir: reports
        output_all: true
        output: "report"

Output

Use the output command to download the outputs of your particular workflow execution(s) to your local environment.

trickest output --workflow <workflow_name> --space <space_name> [--nodes <comma_separated_list_of_nodes>] [--config <config_file_path>] [--runs <number>] [--output-dir <output_path_directory>]

Flag	Type	Default	Description
--workflow	string	/	The name of the workflow.
--space	string	/	The name of the space to which workflow belongs

--files	string	/	A comma-separated list of file names that should be downloaded from the selected node

Output Structure

When using the output command, trickest-cli will keep the local directory/file structure the same as on the platform. All your spaces and projects will become directories with the appropriate outputs. If a module is among the downloaded outputs, a file will be created for each of its outputs.
