Why I Built It

Purpose and Scope

I built this project to deepen my understanding of search automation, validation pipelines, and practical anti-rate-limit strategies in security tooling.

Hardest Part

Technical Constraint

Designing adaptive query generation loops that keep discovery quality high while avoiding noisy searches and rate-limit pressure.

What I Learned

Post-build Reflection

I improved my skills in search strategy design, defensive request pacing, and building structured security tooling for repeatable analysis.

Key Features

Core Capability Set
