Two modes in one CLI. Security Scan reads the code. Pen Test attempts the exploits against systems you authorise.
Security Scan read-only · self-serve Pen Test active · gated
Pick modules, set the agent’s permissions, optionally turn on exploit verification, run. Output is a markdown report — location, severity, cause, and fix direction for every finding it could ground in your code.
Free install. The first run opens a quick Cosine sign-up — the same login that runs Cosine’s coding agent — and new accounts start with 2M free tokens.
$ cd path/to/your/repo $ argusred → first run opens a Cosine sign-up — you start with 2M free tokens

Verify the findings.
Don’t just report a vulnerability — prove it. Turn on Exploit Verification and the agent attempts a safe reproduction of each finding after the initial report, so what lands in front of you is confirmed, not theoretical.
Docker — reproduction runs inside an ephemeral, isolated container spun up from your repo. Nothing touches your host; the container is torn down when it finishes.
