The developer created 'In the Dark,' an open-source (MIT license) tool designed for authorized labs and CTFs, particularly TryHackMe environments. The tool scans targets and provides explanations for each open service, including what the service is, why it matters, and what to check next with actual commands (like gobuster and smbclient). Currently at version 0.1, it covers common services and uses only safe, allow-listed options to build commands as a guided workflow rather than a replacement for existing tools.
