HackerGPT

HackerGPT is your indispensable digital companion in the world of bug bounty. Crafted with the unique needs of bug bounty hunters in mind, this AI-powered assistant stands at the forefront of hacking knowledge and assistance. Equipped with an extensive database of hacking techniques, tools, and strategies, HackerGPT is more than just an information resource—it's an active participant in your hacking journey. Whether you're a beginner looking to learn the ropes or a seasoned professional seeking deeper insights, HackerGPT is your ally in navigating the ever-changing landscape of hacking challenges.

How does HackerGPT work?

When you submit a question, it is transmitted to our server. We first check the authenticity of the user and determine their question quota based on whether they are a free or pro user. Next, we search our database for information that closely matches the inquiry. If we find a strong match, we integrate it into the AI's response process. We then securely send your question to OpenRouter for processing without sending any personal information. Responses vary depending on the module: Responses vary depending on the module:

• HackerGPT: A Mixtral 8x22B with a semantic search on our hacking data paired with our unique prompt.
• HackerGPT Pro: A Llama 3 70B with our unique prompt.
• GPT-4o: The latest and greatest from OpenAI, paired with our unique prompt.

What Makes HackerGPT Special?

HackerGPT is not just an AI that answers your hacking questions, it can also assist you in hacking using widely used open-source hacking tools. If you want to see all available tools, you can open the Plugin Store. Additionally, if you need a quick guide on using a specific tool such as Subfinder, select the tool and type /subfinder -h.

Below are some of the notable tools available with HackerGPT:

• Subfinder is a subdomain discovery tool designed to enumerate and uncover valid subdomains of websites efficiently through passive online sources.
• Katana is a next-generation crawling and spidering framework designed for robust, efficient web enumeration.
• Naabu is a high-speed port scanning tool, focused on delivering efficient and reliable network exploration.

Oh, and yes, you can effortlessly use these tools without typing complex commands — simply select the tool you want and describe in your own words what you need to do.

Along with these, there are more tools available with HackerGPT

Updating

In your terminal at the root of your local Chatbot UI repository, run:

npm run update

If you run a hosted instance you'll also need to run:

npm run db-push

to apply the latest migrations to your live database.

Important Note About Running HackerGPT Locally

The primary purpose of this GitHub repo is to show what's behind HackerGPT in order to build trust.

You can run HackerGPT locally, but the RAG system, plugins, and more will only work with proper and complex configuration.

Local Quickstart

Follow these steps to get your own Chatbot UI instance running locally.

You can watch the full video tutorial here.

1. Clone the Repo

git clone https://github.com/Hacker-GPT/HackerGPT-2.0.git

2. Install Dependencies

Open a terminal in the root directory of your local Chatbot UI repository and run:

npm install

3. Install Supabase & Run Locally

Why Supabase?

Previously, we used local browser storage to store data. However, this was not a good solution for a few reasons:

• Security issues
• Limited storage
• Limits multi-modal use cases

We now use Supabase because it's easy to use, it's open-source, it's Postgres, and it has a free tier for hosted instances.

We will support other providers in the future to give you more options.

1. Install Docker

You will need to install Docker to run Supabase locally. You can download it here for free.

2. Install Supabase CLI

MacOS/Linux

brew install supabase/tap/supabase

Windows

scoop bucket add supabase https://github.com/supabase/scoop-bucket.git
scoop install supabase

3. Start Supabase

In your terminal at the root of your local Chatbot UI repository, run:

supabase start

4. Fill in Secrets

1. Environment Variables

In your terminal at the root of your local Chatbot UI repository, run:

cp .env.local.example .env.local

Get the required values by running:

supabase status

Note: Use API URL from supabase status for NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL

Now go to your .env.local file and fill in the values.

If the environment variable is set, it will disable the input in the user settings.

2. SQL Setup

In the 1st migration file supabase/migrations/20240108234540_setup.sql you will need to replace 2 values with the values you got above:

• project_url (line 53): http://supabase_kong_chatbotui:8000 (default) can remain unchanged if you don't change your project_id in the config.toml file
• service_role_key (line 54): You got this value from running supabase status

This prevents issues with storage files not being deleted properly.

5. Run app locally

In your terminal at the root of your local Chatbot UI repository, run:

npm run chat

Your local instance of Chatbot UI should now be running at http://localhost:3000. Be sure to use a compatible node version (i.e. v18).

You can view your backend GUI at http://localhost:54323/project/default/editor.

6. Adding local user

1. Sign Up

Go to the login screen at http://localhost:3000

Fill in your email and password, then press Sign Up.

2. Confirm email

Access Inbucket, the email testing service, at http://localhost:54324.

Find the mailbox for the email you used to sign up. Review the received message and confirm your email.

Now you can use this user and password to login.

Hosted Quickstart

Follow these steps to get your own Chatbot UI instance running in the cloud.

Video tutorial coming soon.

1. Follow Local Quickstart

Repeat steps 1-4 in "Local Quickstart" above.

You will want separate repositories for your local and hosted instances.

Create a new repository for your hosted instance of Chatbot UI on GitHub and push your code to it.

2. Setup Backend with Supabase

1. Create a new project

Go to Supabase and create a new project.

2. Get Project Values

Once you are in the project dashboard, click on the "Project Settings" icon tab on the far bottom left.

Here you will get the values for the following environment variables:

• Project Ref: Found in "General settings" as "Reference ID"

• Project ID: Found in the URL of your project dashboard (Ex: https://supabase.com/dashboard/project/<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>/settings/general)

While still in "Settings" click on the "API" text tab on the left.

Here you will get the values for the following environment variables:

• Project URL: Found in "API Settings" as "Project URL"

• Anon key: Found in "Project API keys" as "anon public"

• Service role key: Found in "Project API keys" as "service_role" (Reminder: Treat this like a password!)

3. Configure Auth

Next, click on the "Authentication" icon tab on the far left.

In the text tabs, click on "Providers" and make sure "Email" is enabled.

We recommend turning off "Confirm email" for your own personal instance.

4. Connect to Hosted DB

Open up your repository for your hosted instance of Chatbot UI.

In the 1st migration file supabase/migrations/20240108234540_setup.sql you will need to replace 2 values with the values you got above:

• project_url (line 53): Use the Project URL value from above
• service_role_key (line 54): Use the Service role key value from above

Now, open a terminal in the root directory of your local Chatbot UI repository. We will execute a few commands here.

Login to Supabase by running:

supabase login

Next, link your project by running the following command with the "Project ID" you got above:

supabase link --project-ref <project-id>

Your project should now be linked.

Finally, push your database to Supabase by running:

supabase db push

Your hosted database should now be set up!

3. Setup Frontend with Vercel

Go to Vercel and create a new project.

In the setup page, import your GitHub repository for your hosted instance of Chatbot UI. Within the project Settings, in the "Build & Development Settings" section, switch Framework Preset to "Next.js".

In environment variables, add the following from the values you got above:

• NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL
• NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY
• SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY

You can also add API keys as environment variables.

• OPENAI_API_KEY
• OPENROUTER_API_KEY

For the full list of environment variables, refer to the '.env.local.example' file. If the environment variables are set for API keys, it will disable the input in the user settings.

Click "Deploy" and wait for your frontend to deploy.

Once deployed, you should be able to use your hosted instance of Chatbot UI via the URL Vercel gives you.
