Overview

Vigolium offers several ways to scan a target and get results in a single command without managing a persistent database. This is ideal for CI/CD pipelines, scripting, and quick ad-hoc checks.

​
Quick Scan with scan-url

The fastest way to scan a single URL. No database, no phases — just direct module execution: 
vigolium scan-url https://example.com/api/users?id=1
JSON output for scripting: 
vigolium scan-url -j https://example.com/api/users?id=1
With authentication and a POST body: 
vigolium scan-url \
  --method POST \
  --body '{"user":"admin","pass":"secret"}' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer tok123' \
  https://example.com/api/login
Run only specific modules: 
vigolium scan-url -m sqli -m xss https://example.com/search?q=test
Skip passive analysis for faster results: 
vigolium scan-url --no-passive https://example.com/api/data

​
Scanning Raw HTTP Requests with scan-request

Feed a raw HTTP request from a file or stdin: 
# From a file
vigolium scan-request -i request.txt

# From stdin (raw HTTP)
printf 'GET /api/users?id=1 HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: example.com\r\n\r\n' | vigolium scan-request

# From a curl command (auto-detected)
echo "curl -X POST -d 'user=admin' https://example.com/login" | vigolium scan-request
Override the target host when the request file lacks a full URL: 
vigolium scan-request -i request.txt --target https://staging.example.com

​
Piping Input from stdin

Both scan-url and scan-request auto-detect the input format from stdin: Plain URL: 
echo 'https://example.com/search?q=test' | vigolium scan-url
Curl command: 
echo "curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{\"id\":1}' https://example.com/api" | vigolium scan-url
Raw HTTP request: 
printf 'POST /api/login HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: example.com\r\nContent-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n\r\nuser=admin&pass=secret' | vigolium scan-request

​
Full Pipeline with --stateless

For a complete multi-phase scan without a persistent database, use the --stateless flag on vigolium scan. This creates a temporary database, runs all phases, exports results, and cleans up: 
vigolium scan --stateless \
  -t https://example.com \
  --format jsonl \
  -o results
This produces results.jsonl with all findings. Combine multiple output formats: 
vigolium scan --stateless \
  -t https://example.com \
  --format jsonl,html \
  -o results
This produces both results.jsonl and results.html.

​
Output Formats

​
Console (default)

Human-readable colored output to the terminal: 
vigolium scan-url https://example.com/search?q=test

​
JSONL

Machine-readable, one JSON object per line. Use -j or --format jsonl: 
vigolium scan-url -j https://example.com/search?q=test
vigolium scan-url --format jsonl https://example.com/search?q=test

​
HTML

Interactive report with ag-grid table. Requires -o to specify the output path: 
vigolium scan --stateless -t https://example.com --format html -o report

​
Multiple Formats

Comma-separate formats to produce several outputs at once: 
vigolium scan --stateless -t https://example.com --format console,jsonl,html -o scan-output

​
CI/CD Integration

Use --ci-output-format for clean, parseable output with no banners or color codes: 
vigolium scan --stateless \
  -t https://example.com \
  --ci-output-format \
  -o findings
This forces JSONL output and suppresses all decorative output.

​
Scanning from Various Input Sources

​
From an OpenAPI Spec

vigolium scan --stateless \
  --input api-spec.yaml -I openapi \
  -t https://api.example.com \
  --format jsonl -o results

​
From a Burp Suite Export

vigolium scan --stateless \
  --input export.xml -I burpxml \
  --format jsonl -o results

​
From a HAR File

vigolium scan --stateless \
  --input traffic.har -I har \
  --format jsonl -o results

​
From a Postman Collection

vigolium scan --stateless \
  --input collection.json -I postman \
  -t https://api.example.com \
  --format jsonl -o results

​
Tuning the Scan

Control concurrency and rate limits: 
vigolium scan --stateless \
  -t https://example.com \
  -c 100 \
  --rate-limit 200 \
  --format jsonl -o results
Use a scanning strategy preset: 
# Lightweight: fewer modules, faster
vigolium scan --stateless -t https://example.com --strategy lite -o results --format jsonl

# Deep: more modules, thorough
vigolium scan --stateless -t https://example.com --strategy deep -o results --format jsonl
Include the full HTTP response in findings for debugging: 
vigolium scan-url --include-response -j https://example.com/api/users?id=1

​
Examples

Quick check on a single endpoint: 
vigolium scan-url https://example.com/api/users?id=1
Full scan with JSON output in one shot: 
vigolium scan --stateless -t https://example.com --discover --format jsonl -o findings
Scan a curl command from clipboard: 
pbpaste | vigolium scan-url -j
Scan an API spec and export HTML report: 
vigolium scan --stateless --input openapi.yaml -I openapi -t https://api.example.com --format html -o report
