3 New GitHub Repos for Bug Bounty Recon in 2026
1. Outrider Recon
Agentic recon and attack-surface management for authorized bug bounty and security testing.
https://t.co/aqijJGx6cj
Practical tip:
Use it to turn raw recon data into prioritized, evidence-backed leads instead of manually reviewing hundreds of findings.
2. OpenOSINT
AI-powered OSINT agent with CLI, interactive REPL and MCP support.
https://t.co/FqMWPZE75v
Practical tip:
Start with a permitted email or username and use its pivots to discover related public identities and accounts.
3. BountyRecon
Program-aware reconnaissance pipeline with SQLite state management, asset tracking, JavaScript monitoring and reporting.
https://t.co/dFfClkwaFI
Practical tip:
Use it when working across multiple authorized programs so historical assets and recon results remain organized instead of getting lost between scans.
2026 Recon Methodology:
Scope
→ Passive OSINT
→ Asset Discovery
→ Infrastructure Mapping
→ HTTP/JS Discovery
→ Prioritize Attack Surface
→ Manual Validation
→ Report
The goal isn't to run more tools.
The goal is to turn recon data into better hunting decisions.
Only use these projects against assets you are authorized to test.

Random 1AM question
How do you guys ensure your agent skills are updated & synced?
For example, I use https://t.co/Gh9iZxme4q as a base-line, on top of that I have my own checklist folder which consists of 60+ different vulnerability classes and their test cases + payloads curated from last 6-7 years. Plus I read a lot of articles, github repos, random writeups everyday. How do I ensure my agent is in the same page as me?
Recon is EVERYTHING in bug bounty 🎯
Before you run a single tool, understand the app:
1️⃣ Check the business. What does it actually do?
2️⃣ Google it, browse the app like a user
3️⃣ Watch videos, read Reddit posts
4️⃣ Learn the app in and out
Then bring the tools:
- Subdomain enum: subfinder, assetfinder, findomain, https://t.co/OUKa7k6rzJ, https://t.co/N9xpqrlKOM
- Live hosts: httpx
- URLs: waybackurls, waymore
- Full chain: reconftw, or build your own pipeline

WEB HACKING FULL COURSE is coming to YouTube.
I’m building the channel into a proper starting point for anyone who wants to get into web hacking, ethical hacking, bug bounty hunting, and application security without jumping straight into advanced stuff they don’t understand.
The course is being structured from the ground up web foundations, Linux basics, reconnaissance, Burp Suite, vulnerability discovery, manual testing, web application security, API security, and eventually the methodology behind actually finding and validating vulnerabilities. The idea is simple: learn the fundamentals, understand what you're doing, then build the practical skills on top of them.
I don't want the channel to be another place where you just copy commands from a screen and call it hacking. I want beginners to understand why they're running a tool, what the output means, what to investigate next, and how everything connects when assessing a real web application in an authorized environment.
WEB HACKING FULL COURSE will be uploaded completely on YouTube very soon. The playlist is already live, so you can start from the beginning and follow the progression as new episodes drop.
If you're starting your journey into Web Hacking, Bug Bounty, Pentesting or AppSec, this is going to be one of the main things I'm building the channel around.
Start from zero, build the fundamentals, learn to think like a security researcher.
Then start breaking applications ethically.
The playlist is already available.

🐀 Two things kill new hunters: testing blind, and testing the wrong bug class.
BountySkiller fixes both. Free, runs in your browser.
📚 Tool 1 — pulls every disclosed report that's actually getting paid: HackerOne hacktivity, PortSwigger, Intigriti, Project Zero, Assetnote + more. Filter by program, severity, keyword, min bounty.
🎯 Tool 2 — Hunt Buddy: paste a target profile, it tells you which bug classes you can even test, runs them, ranks the findings.
The honest part is built in: a module it can't run is marked SKIP, never reported as "clean." And it won't fire a single request outside the scope you define — it refuses to start without one.
Authorized, in-scope targets only. That's the job.
