HackFast Chats: Full-Screen AI Assistant for Penetration Testing

Meet HackFast Chats — a dedicated workspace for back-and-forth pentest questions with project context, Tab mentions, and agent deploy built in.

A Chat Built for Pentesters, Not General Q&A

Most AI chat tools treat penetration testing like any other topic — no scope awareness, no scan data, no way to reference the credential you found ten minutes ago. HackFast Chats is different: a full-screen assistant on your project dashboard designed for the back-and-forth rhythm of an active engagement.

Key Features

  • Shared history: Same conversation threads as AI Insights on Attack Surface
  • Project attachments: Attach IPs and ports so replies stay grounded in scan data
  • Tab mentions: Reference saved people, credentials, IPs, and ports inline
  • Stronger analysis mode: Deeper reasoning for complex targets and exploit planning
  • Agent deploy: Confirm inline to run scans and enumeration on connected agents
  • Persistent sidebar: Reopen past conversations from the chat history panel

Starter Prompts That Actually Help

Chats includes curated prompts beyond generic "help me hack" requests:

  • "Prioritize which open ports to investigate first on this subnet"
  • "Suggest an attack path from external foothold to domain admin"
  • "What should I enumerate on port 8080 given this Tomcat banner?"
  • "Draft an executive summary of critical findings so far"

Educational: Chats vs. AI Insights

AI Insights lives inside Attack Surface — ideal when you are already reviewing a specific IP and want quick questions about attached ports.

Chats is the full-screen workspace for longer investigations, multi-target planning, report drafting, and exploit chain brainstorming. Use both; they share the same conversation history.

Your Pentest War Room

HackFast Chats gives you a persistent, context-aware AI partner that understands your project — not a blank chatbot starting from zero every time.
