Description

Generates custom wordlists from character sets, lengths, and patterns for password-audit workflows. It is useful for authorized security testing where testers need controlled candidate lists.

Wordlist generation can support password attacks and can create huge files quickly. Use only with permission, avoid targeting accounts you do not own, and watch disk usage.
