Cap creator launches Sandchest, an AI hacker that scans repos with abliterated models

richiemcilroy, creator of Cap, launched Sandchest, a tool that embeds an AI hacker in your team. It runs abliterated (safety-stripped) open models — the same kind attackers use — against your GitHub repos to find vulnerabilities before exploitation.

Workflow: install the GitHub app, pick repos, and it maps them for free (routes, auth checks, data stores). The first full deep scan is free; each finding lands on the exact code line with a step-by-step attack path, a runnable PoC, what the fix must and mustn't break, plus a copy-paste fix prompt with regression test for your coding agent. Findings are delivered as reviewed PR comments. The author says it has already found real vulnerabilities in multiple projects.
