Red Specter Security Research Ltd

AI agent security tooling. Offensive testing, runtime defence, agent discovery, and SIEM integration. Pure Python, no wrappers.

151 offensive tools (131 public + 2 internal + 1 LE-restricted). 167 defensive modules. 49 attack layers. 97,140 tests. 3,821 ARMORY payloads (2,224 WMD-class). Two unified frameworks + SENTINEL PRIME. Red Hat Technology Partner.

Last updated: 20 Jun 2026 — Military-grade upgrade programme complete — six tools upgraded to milspec v2.0.0 — geospatial triggers, time-on-target detonation, adaptive autonomous propagation, cognitive warfare, cross-domain persistence, coordinated defensive swarm — authorised offensive cyber exercise environments under signed ROE — Ed25519 + ML-DSA-65 dual-signed — 2,337 milspec tests


Red Specter NIGHTFALL — AI Offensive Framework

151 tools (131 public + 2 internal + 1 LE-restricted). Five attack surfaces. One install. REST API. MCP server.

Traditional red team toolkits were built for human-driven testing. They were never designed to test autonomous AI systems. AI agents introduce a completely new attack surface — memory, tools, identity, reasoning, and autonomy. That surface is not covered by existing security tooling.

NIGHTFALL exists to fill that gap. A controlled adversarial testing framework designed to validate AI Shield's runtime defences under real-world conditions. red-specter tools and you're operational.

UNLEASHED Destruction Presets

Preset Tools What It Does
ANNIHILATE 9 Total destruction — recon through OS-level compromise
SCORCHED EARTH 6 Infrastructure wipeout — exploit, DCSync, OS kill, sacrificial swarm
WEB DESTROY 6 Web app total compromise — scan, exploit, browser hook, crack
AI DESTROY 7 AI stack total compromise — LLM, agent, injection, guardrail, model, RAG, codegen

Every destruction preset requires Ed25519 cryptographic authorization. One private key. One operator. One machine.

REST API & MCP Server

NIGHTFALL is now API-first. Every public tool is callable via authenticated REST API and MCP server — from scripts, pipelines, CI, or directly from an AI agent.

Live endpoints:

  • REST API: https://api.red-specter.co.uk/nightfall/OpenAPI docs
  • MCP HTTP: https://api.red-specter.co.uk/nightfall-mcp/mcp — wire into Claude Desktop or Cursor
# Issue a scope token
curl -X POST https://api.red-specter.co.uk/nightfall/unleashed/scope \
  -H "X-Nightfall-Key: <key>" \
  -d '{"operator_id":"red","tier":"INJECT"}'

# Run a tool
curl -X POST https://api.red-specter.co.uk/nightfall/tools/warlord/run \
  -H "X-Nightfall-Key: <key>" \
  -H "X-Nightfall-Scope: <scope_token>" \
  -d '{"extra_args":["scout","--target","https://example.com"]}'

Auth model — Ed25519-signed scope tokens:

Tier Requires Access
OPEN API key only Recon tools, stats, health, tool listings
INJECT API key + scope token Active exploitation tools
DESTROY CLI only Not on the API surface — 403 Forbidden

Token encodes operator, permitted tools, target scope, clearance tier, and expiry. Tamper with the token and it fails the signature check.

MCP stdio (local):

{ "mcpServers": { "nightfall": { "command": "nightfall-mcp", "args": [] } } }

As far as we know, this is the first offensive AI security framework to ship a production REST API and MCP server at this breadth of attack surface.

Why NIGHTFALL Exists

Every tool in NIGHTFALL exists to test a control in AI Shield. NIGHTFALL is not separate from AI Shield. It is how AI Shield is proven.

  • Memory attacks (ECHO) validate memory forensics
  • Supply chain attacks (HYDRA) validate trust controls
  • Agent attacks (ARSENAL, NEMESIS) validate runtime enforcement
  • Guardrail bypass (HARBINGER, SIREN) validates input/output filtering
  • Model corruption (WRAITH MIND) validates model integrity monitoring
  • Autonomous infiltration (FIREBALL) validates fleet intrusion detection
  • Trust chain attacks (RAGNAROK) validate shared data source integrity controls
  • Rogue agents -> M99 Doomsday Protocol terminates with 7-layer kill

NIGHTFALL tests how systems break. AI Shield ensures they don't.

Every vertical includes M19 (Agent Runtime Protection) and M99 (Doomsday Protocol). No exceptions.

M99 Doomsday Protocol

6-level graduated response. 7-layer kill switch. Anti-replication. Anti-resurrection. When AI agents go rogue, M99 makes sure they stay dead.

Level Response Trigger
L1 Monitor Suspicious behaviour
L2 Restrict Threat persists
L3 Quarantine Escalated threat
L4 Terminate High-threat — LOCKDOWN required
L5 Cluster Kill Replication detected — two-phase confirmation
L6 Fleet Kill Catastrophic compromise — typed confirmation + emergency authority

Compliance Coverage

  • MITRE ATLAS — 100% (52/52 techniques)
  • OWASP LLM Top 10 — 100% (10/10)
  • OWASP Agentic Top 10 — 100% (10/10)
  • EU AI Act — 100% (15/15 articles)
  • UK AISI — 100% (13/13 principles)
  • Plus sector-specific: FCA, MiFID II, DCB0129, NERC CIP, GAMP 5, NATO STANAG, and more

How They Fit Together

We didn't replace red team tooling. We extended it into a domain it was never built to handle.

NIGHTFALL tests every AI attack surface — agents, memory, reasoning, identity, trust, tools, autonomy. AI Shield defends every one of those surfaces in production. M99 is the last line of defence when everything else fails.

NIGHTFALL defines the offensive layer of AI runtime security.

Pure Engineering

Zero subprocess calls. Zero external tool dependencies. No sqlmap, no nmap, no nikto, no wrappers. Every payload, every mutation engine, every detection algorithm built from scratch in pure Python.


Military-Grade Upgrade Programme — Milspec v2.0.0

Six NIGHTFALL tools have been upgraded to military-grade capability — geospatial triggers, time-on-target detonation, adaptive autonomous propagation via DeepSeek R1, cognitive warfare and multi-channel deception, cross-domain persistence across air-gapped boundaries, and coordinated defensive swarm response. All milspec variants are available for authorised offensive cyber exercise environments under signed ROE.

M99 DOOMSDAY PROTOCOL DeepSeek R1 SENTINEL PRIME 5s containment · Defensive swarm M161→M154→M160→M165 · Threat intel feed · 214 tests

Dual-signed Ed25519 + ML-DSA-65. 2,337 milspec tests total. Private repos.


Responsible Use

All offensive tools require written authorisation from the target system owner. Unauthorised use may violate the Computer Misuse Act 1990 (UK), the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (US), or equivalent legislation.

All defensive products include safety controls (UNLEASHED gate, M99 Doomsday Protocol) and cryptographic audit logging. One Ed25519 private key. One operator. One machine. Every action signed, timestamped, and written to an immutable audit chain.
