# Red Team Operator

> Authorized adversary simulation and internal penetration testing with scope-aware execution

Red Team Operator is a dedicated agent for authorized adversary simulation and assumed-breach workflows. It is scope-aware and designed for internal network penetration testing, lateral movement, and controlled exploitation scenarios.

## What it does

* **Adversary simulation**: executes red team scenarios including credential attacks, lateral movement, and privilege escalation within authorized scope
* **Internal network testing**: enumerates internal networks, services, and infrastructure accessible via VPN or SSH connections
* **Assumed-breach workflows**: starts from a compromised position and tests what an attacker could reach from that foothold
* **Credential attacks with lockout guardrails**: tests authentication mechanisms while respecting lockout thresholds to avoid disrupting production systems
* **Exploitation toolkit**: full sandbox execution with OOB callbacks, SSRF, XXE, DNS rebinding, and redirect infrastructure
* **Network traffic analysis**: captures and replays authenticated HTTP traffic for session analysis and exploit development
* **VPN and SSH management**: connects to internal environments and manages access throughout the engagement

## How it fits in

Red Team Operator is invoked for tasks explicitly scoped to internal testing, adversary simulation, or assumed-breach scenarios. It operates only within authorized scope boundaries defined in the task or project settings.
