-CyberStrikeAI is an **AI-native security testing platform** built in Go. It integrates 100+ security tools, an intelligent orchestration engine, role-based testing with predefined security roles, a skills system with specialized testing skills, and comprehensive lifecycle management capabilities. Through native MCP protocol and AI agents, it enables end-to-end automation from conversational commands to vulnerability discovery, attack-chain analysis, knowledge retrieval, and result visualization—delivering an auditable, traceable, and collaborative testing environment for security teams.

 - 📱 **Chatbot**: DingTalk and Lark (Feishu) long-lived connections so you can talk to CyberStrikeAI from mobile (see [Robot / Chatbot guide](docs/robot_en.md) for setup and commands)
 - 🧑‍⚖️ **Human-in-the-loop (HITL)**: Chat sidebar to set approval mode and tool allowlists (listed tools skip approval); global list in `config.yaml` under `hitl.tool_whitelist`; **Apply** can merge new tools into the file and update the running server without restart; dedicated **HITL** page for pending approvals
 - 🐚 **WebShell management**: Add and manage WebShell connections (e.g. IceSword/AntSword compatible), use a virtual terminal for command execution, a built-in file manager for file operations, and an AI assistant tab that orchestrates tests and keeps per-connection conversation history; supports PHP, ASP, ASPX, JSP and custom shell types with configurable request method and command parameter.
+- 📡 **Built-in C2**: AI-oriented lightweight command-and-control—**listeners** (TCP reverse, HTTP/HTTPS beacon, WebSocket), **encrypted** beacon channel, **session** and **task** queues with persistence, **payload** helpers (one-liner / build / download), **SSE** live events, REST under `/api/c2/*`, plus unified MCP tools (`c2_listener`, `c2_session`, **`c2_task`**, `c2_task_manage`, `c2_payload`, `c2_event`, `c2_profile`, `c2_file`); optional **HITL** approval for sensitive operations and OPSEC-style controls (e.g. command deny rules). **Authorized testing only.**

 - **Vulnerability management** – Create, update, and track vulnerabilities discovered during testing. Filter by severity (critical/high/medium/low/info), status (open/confirmed/fixed/false_positive), and conversation. View statistics and export findings.
 - **Batch task management** – Create task queues with multiple tasks, add or edit tasks before execution, and run them sequentially. Each task executes as a separate conversation, with status tracking (pending/running/completed/failed/cancelled) and full execution history.
 - **WebShell management** – Add and manage WebShell connections (PHP/ASP/ASPX/JSP or custom). Use the virtual terminal to run commands, the file manager to list, read, edit, upload, and delete files, and the AI assistant tab to drive scripted tests with per-connection conversation history. Connections are stored in SQLite; supports GET/POST and configurable command parameter (e.g. IceSword/AntSword style).
+- **Built-in C2** – Create/start **listeners**, generate **payloads**, track **sessions**, enqueue **tasks**, and subscribe to **events** (SSE) from the Web UI or `/api/c2/*`. Agents and external clients use the C2 MCP tool family (including **`c2_task`**); when HITL is enabled, high-risk tasks can require human approval. Intended **only** for systems you are explicitly authorized to test.
 - **Settings** – Tweak provider keys, MCP enablement, tool toggles, and agent iteration limits.
 - **Human-in-the-loop (HITL)** – Sidebar sets mode and allowlisted tools (comma- or newline-separated); global list lives in `config.yaml` under `hitl.tool_whitelist`. **Apply** updates browser/server and can merge new tools into the file (**no restart**). **New chat** keeps sidebar choices; **HITL** nav shows pending approvals. Removing a tool in the sidebar does not remove it from the global list in `config.yaml`—edit the file if needed.

 - **Connectivity test** – Use **Test connectivity** to verify that the shell URL, password, and command parameter are correct before running commands (sends a lightweight `echo 1` check).

+### Built-in C2 (Command & Control)
+- **What it is** – A first-party, **AI-native** C2 stack: listeners accept implants (beacons), the server stores **sessions** and **tasks** in SQLite, pushes updates over an **event bus** (including **SSE**), and exposes everything through authenticated **REST** plus MCP.
+- **Listeners & transports** – `tcp_reverse`, `http_beacon`, `https_beacon`, and `websocket`; per-listener crypto keys; running listeners can be **restored after restart** when marked running in the database.
+- **Agent integration** – MCP exposes a small **C2 tool family** (listeners, sessions, **`c2_task`**, task management, payloads, events, profiles, files) so the same agent loop can orchestrate C2 alongside other tools; dangerous task types can go through the existing **HITL** bridge when your session policy requires it.
+- **Safety** – Use **only** in lab or **fully authorized** engagements; combine network isolation, strong auth, and HITL/allowlists as your policy demands.

 ### MCP Everywhere
 - **Web mode** – ships with HTTP MCP server automatically consumed by the UI.
 - **MCP stdio mode** – `go run cmd/mcp-stdio/main.go` exposes the agent to Cursor/CLI.

 - **Batch Task APIs** – manage batch task queues via `/api/batch-tasks` endpoints: `POST /api/batch-tasks` (create queue), `GET /api/batch-tasks` (list queues), `GET /api/batch-tasks/:queueId` (get queue), `POST /api/batch-tasks/:queueId/start` (start execution), `POST /api/batch-tasks/:queueId/cancel` (cancel), `DELETE /api/batch-tasks/:queueId` (delete), `POST /api/batch-tasks/:queueId/tasks` (add task), `PUT /api/batch-tasks/:queueId/tasks/:taskId` (update task), `DELETE /api/batch-tasks/:queueId/tasks/:taskId` (delete task). Tasks execute sequentially, each creating a separate conversation with full status tracking.
 - **WebShell APIs** – manage WebShell connections and execute commands via `/api/webshell/connections` (GET list, POST create, PUT update, DELETE delete) and `/api/webshell/exec` (command execution), `/api/webshell/fileop` (list/read/write/delete files).
+- **C2 APIs** – manage listeners, sessions, tasks, payloads, files, and events under `/api/c2/*` (e.g. listeners CRUD/start/stop, session sleep, task create/cancel/wait, payload build/download, event stream).
 - **Task control** – pause/resume/stop long scans, re-run steps with new params, or stream transcripts.
 - **Audit & security** – rotate passwords via `/api/auth/change-password`, enforce short-lived sessions, and restrict MCP ports at the network layer when exposing the service.
