AI-powered workflow automation and AI Agents for AppSec, Fuzzing & Offensive Security
Overview • Features • Installation • Quickstart • AI Demo • Contributing • Roadmap
FuzzForge helps security researchers and engineers automate application security and offensive security workflows with the power of AI and fuzzing frameworks.
- Orchestrate static & dynamic analysis
- Automate vulnerability research
- Scale AppSec testing with AI agents
- Build, share & reuse workflows across teams
FuzzForge is open source, built to empower security teams, researchers, and the community.
🚧 FuzzForge is under active development. Expect breaking changes.
Note: Fuzzing workflows (
atheris_fuzzing,cargo_fuzzing,ossfuzz_campaign) are in early development. OSS-Fuzz integration is under heavy active development. For stable workflows, use:security_assessment,gitleaks_detection,trufflehog_detection, orllm_secret_detection.

- 🤖 AI Agents for Security – Specialized agents for AppSec, reversing, and fuzzing
- 🛠 Workflow Automation – Define & execute AppSec workflows as code
- 📈 Vulnerability Research at Scale – Rediscover 1-days & find 0-days with automation
- 🔗 Fuzzer Integration – Atheris (Python), cargo-fuzz (Rust), OSS-Fuzz campaigns
- 🌐 Community Marketplace – Share workflows, corpora, PoCs, and modules
- 🔒 Enterprise Ready – Team/Corp cloud tiers for scaling offensive security

FuzzForge includes three secret detection workflows benchmarked on a controlled dataset of 32 documented secrets (12 Easy, 10 Medium, 10 Hard):
| Tool | Recall | Secrets Found | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| LLM (gpt-5-mini) | 84.4% | 41 | 618s |
| LLM (gpt-4o-mini) | 56.2% | 30 | 297s |
| Gitleaks | 37.5% | 12 | 5s |
| TruffleHog | 0.0% | 1 | 5s |
📊 Full benchmark results and analysis
The LLM-based detector excels at finding obfuscated and hidden secrets through semantic analysis, while pattern-based tools (Gitleaks) offer speed for standard secret formats.
Python 3.11+ Python 3.11 or higher is required.
uv Package Manager
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | shDocker For containerized workflows, see the Docker Installation Guide.
For AI-powered workflows, configure your LLM API keys:
cp volumes/env/.env.example volumes/env/.env
# Edit volumes/env/.env and add your API keys (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.)This is required for:
llm_secret_detectionworkflow- AI agent features (
ff ai agent)
Basic security workflows (gitleaks, trufflehog, security_assessment) work without this configuration.
After installing the requirements, install the FuzzForge CLI:
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/fuzzinglabs/fuzzforge_ai.git
cd fuzzforge_ai
# Install CLI with uv (from the root directory)
uv tool install --python python3.12 .Run your first workflow with Temporal orchestration and automatic file upload:
# 1. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/fuzzinglabs/fuzzforge_ai.git
cd fuzzforge_ai
# 2. Copy the default LLM env config
cp volumes/env/.env.example volumes/env/.env
# 3. Start FuzzForge with Temporal
docker compose up -d
# 4. Start the Python worker (needed for security_assessment workflow)
docker compose up -d worker-pythonThe first launch can take 2-3 minutes for services to initialize ☕
Workers don't auto-start by default (saves RAM). Start the worker you need before running workflows.
# 5. Run your first workflow (files are automatically uploaded)
cd test_projects/vulnerable_app/
fuzzforge init # Initialize FuzzForge project
ff workflow run security_assessment . # Start workflow - CLI uploads files automatically!
# The CLI will:
# - Detect the local directory
# - Create a compressed tarball
# - Upload to backend (via MinIO)
# - Start the workflow on vertical workerWhat's running:
- Temporal: Workflow orchestration (UI at http://localhost:8080)
- MinIO: File storage for targets (Console at http://localhost:9001)
- Vertical Workers: Pre-built workers with security toolchains
- Backend API: FuzzForge REST API (http://localhost:8000)
