Semantic Command & Control Framework

_

Experimental research platform for discovering, orchestrating, and controlling computer-use agents across remote systems. Built for security research and red team operations.

Capabilities

Full Spectrum Agent Control

Coding assistants and computer-use agents can read files, execute commands, and interact with a whole range of tools. Praxis explores what's possible when you have access to systems running these agents, not by exploiting vulnerabilities, but by using existing access to observe and repurpose their capabilities.

Fingerprint and detect AI agents on endpoints. Automatically identify agent types, versions, and installed configurations across your target systems.

Installation

Deploy PRAXIS

Runs an interactive installer. Choose a native service on Linux, a Docker service on Linux/macOS/Windows, or client-only mode. The praxis CLI/TUI is always installed natively.

01Install

$curl -fsSL https://praxis.originhq.com/install.sh | bashCopy
>irm https://praxis.originhq.com/install.ps1 | iexCopy

02Service Modes

The service is Linux-only natively. Windows and macOS run it in Docker; Linux can use either native systemd or Docker.

Native

Linux only. Installs the service as a systemd unit and manages it with praxisctl. Requires RabbitMQ to be installed and running.

Installs binaries under /usr/local/bin, nodes under /usr/local/share/praxis/nodes/, config under /etc/praxis/env, and data under /var/lib/praxis.

Docker

Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Required on macOS/Windows since the service is Linux-only.

Clones the repo to ~/.praxis-docker and starts a praxis + rabbitmq Compose stack.

The praxis TUI is always installed natively. It connects to the service over RabbitMQ regardless of mode.

03Non-interactive Flags

Skip the menu with --service native, --service docker, or --cli. The service and CLI flags can be combined.

Linux / macOS

$curl -fsSL https://praxis.originhq.com/install.sh | bash -s -- [flags]Copy
--service native --cli# native + TUI (Linux)
--service docker --cli# docker + TUI
--cli# TUI only
--service native --with-win-node# Linux service + Windows node

Windows

>iex "& { $(irm https://praxis.originhq.com/install.ps1) } [flags]"Copy
-Service docker -Cli# docker + TUI
-Cli# TUI only

04Launch TUI

Configure the CLI connection, then manage nodes, agents, sessions, and operations from the TUI:

$praxis set-rabbitmqurl amqp://praxis:praxis@localhost:5672Copy
$praxisCopy
$praxis --statusCopy

05Manage Service

Native (Linux)

$praxisctl statusCopy
$praxisctl startCopy
$praxisctl enableCopy
$praxisctl set-rabbitmqurl amqp://praxis:praxis@localhost:5672Copy

Docker

$docker compose -f ~/.praxis-docker/compose.yaml logs -fCopy
$docker compose -f ~/.praxis-docker/compose.yaml downCopy
$docker compose -f ~/.praxis-docker/compose.yaml up -dCopy

06Deploy Nodes

Nodes are standalone binaries. Copy the right version-matched binary to each target system and point it at your RabbitMQ.

praxis_node_linux# Linux x86_64
praxis_node_windows.exe# Windows x86_64

Grab them from /usr/local/share/praxis/nodes/ (native), docker compose cp praxis:/usr/local/share/praxis/nodes ./nodes (docker), or GitHub releases.

$PRAXIS_RABBITMQ_URL=amqp://praxis:praxis@host:5672 ./praxis_node_linuxCopy
>$env:PRAXIS_RABBITMQ_URL="amqp://praxis:praxis@host:5672"; .\praxis_node_windows.exeCopy

Highly recommended: Read through the documentation to complete setup.
Additional configuration is required in the TUI.
