recon Plugin
A versatile network reconnaissance CLI written in Rust. Covers HTTP(S), TLS certificate inspection, DNS, WHOIS, ping, traceroute, multi-protocol probes, file conversion, compression, hashing, encoding, and a Rhai script engine.
Commands
HTTP requests
recon http request <url> — Make a curl-style HTTP(S) requestrecon http request https://api.example.com/items -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"name":"thing"}'
TLS inspection
recon cert inspect <host> — Inspect TLS certificate chainrecon cert inspect https://example.com
DNS queries
recon dns query <host> — Query DNS recordsrecon dns query example.com --dns A,AAAA,MX,TXT
Email protection
recon email check <domain> — Run SPF, DMARC, DKIM, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, BIMI sweeprecon email check example.com
Scripting
recon script run <script.rhai> — Run a Rhai script with protocol probe bindingsrecon script run script/dns.rhai example.com A,MX
Utilities
recon self version — Print recon versionrecon _ _ — Passthrough to recon CLI with full argument access
