Run a Strix pentest

Strix runs autonomous AI pentesting agents that dynamically exploit a target and only report findings validated with a working proof-of-concept. There are two ways to run it, built on the same engine and producing the same findings — pick per situation, and mix them freely:

Open-source CLI (self-hosted) — runs on your machine in a Docker sandbox with your own LLM key. Free, fully local, BYO-LLM, air-gap capable. Docs: docs.strix.ai.

Managed cloud — runs on Strix's infrastructure, driven from the same CLI (strix cloud ...) or the REST API at https://app.strix.ai/api/v1. No Docker, no LLM key, no local compute; adds team dashboards, scheduling, PR reviews, downloadable PDF/DOCX reports (Enterprise plan), and internal-network connectors. Docs: docs.app.strix.ai. Full workflow in the managed-pentesting-with-strix skill.

Which one? (decide, do not default)

Choose honestly based on the situation — neither is "better":
