- Open-kritt is an open-source, self-hosted AI vulnerability research platform.
- New Chinese documentation lowers the barrier for setup and configuration.
- The original project features 2,284 stars and runs on JavaScript.
- It uses parallel AI agents to analyze and validate code issues.
The open-source project open-kritt, originally created by Kritt-ai/open-kritt in JavaScript with 2,284 GitHub stars, now features a Chinese translation hosted at yangshun2005/open-kritt-cn released on October 14, 2026. This translation aims to help Chinese-speaking developers easily navigate the AI-driven security tool.
Aimed at security researchers and security-conscious developers, the platform lets users control their own prompts, workflows, model providers, and infrastructure. Unlike single large prompts that yield poor signal-to-noise ratios, open-kritt breaks research tasks into explicit assignments processed in parallel by multiple AI agents, merging the outputs into verified findings.

The Kritt team, led by researcher Blockian, reports earning over $1.5 million in bug bounties, describing open-kritt as the open-source distillation of their internal tooling. Providing documentation in Chinese removes the barrier where misreading configuration details could cost developers hours of troubleshooting.
Translating technical documentation for security tools is critical because misinterpreting threat models or setup instructions can introduce severe vulnerabilities. Native-language guides ensure that security parameters and restrictions are properly understood before deployment.
Prerequisites for running the tool include Git, Docker with Docker Compose, and Node.js version 20 or newer. Users can clone the repository, run the setup wizard to configure API keys, and launch the local stack, or utilize the headless CLI for server environments.

The translated guide highlights crucial security warnings, noting that the backend lacks application-layer authentication by default and should never be publicly exposed. Furthermore, agents run as root inside job containers, meaning users must run scans on dedicated Docker hosts when testing untrusted code.
