🃏 The Joker Release: ENDj0K3R & Vibe Coding IDE (v1.0.0)

Welcome to the official release of The Joker! This release provides two powerful, AI-driven desktop applications built with Electron, React, and TypeScript.

Both applications are engineered to leverage local LLMs via LM Studio, ensuring your codebase, security logs, and conversations remain 100% local, private, and offline.

Below you will find the details for both .exe installers included in this release.


💻 1. The Joker - Vibe Coding IDE

A production-grade, AI-powered Desktop IDE built for "Vibe Coding." Simply describe what you want to build, and the application will scaffold, write, and debug the project for you.

✨ Key Features

  • Familiar VS Code-Style UI: A sleek, split-panel layout featuring a dynamic file explorer, Monaco-based code editor, and an integrated terminal.
  • Self-Correcting Autonomous Terminal: Powered by node-pty and xterm.js, the terminal does more than run commands. If an error occurs during a build or dependency installation, the AI automatically reads the terminal output, analyzes the stack trace, and applies the correct fix in real-time.
  • Persistent AI Copilot: A continuous chat interface that maintains context across your session, helping you generate code, explain files, and architect complex solutions.
  • Project Generation & Scaffolding: Describe your project, and the AI will automatically generate the directory structure, fetch and install the right dependencies (with intelligent fallbacks), and set up your environment.
  • Seamless Local AI: Connects directly to your local LM Studio instance via a built-in Setup Wizard. No API keys or cloud subscriptions needed.

Attached Asset: The_Joker_Vibe_Coding_IDE_Setup.exe


🕵️‍♂️ 2. The Joker - ENDj0K3R (Pentesting Edition)

A specialized build designed for security researchers and ethical hackers. It includes everything from the Vibe Coding IDE, but integrates a localized, TypeScript-native port of PentestGPT to act as your intelligent penetration testing co-pilot.

✨ Key Features

  • PentestGPT Architecture: Full feature parity with the core PentestGPT workflow, featuring dedicated Agent, Controller, and Session Management processes running locally.
  • Phase-Based Recon & Exploitation: The AI guides you through structured phases of a pentest (Information Gathering, Vulnerability Assessment, Exploitation, and Privilege Escalation) using specialized, battle-tested security prompts.
  • Automated Recon Tools: Features an integrated Web Scraping / Recon panel to quickly gather open-source intelligence and analyze target vectors.
  • Maximum Privacy: By routing all data through LM Studio, sensitive vulnerability data, payloads, and target environments are never sent to external APIs like OpenAI.
  • Ethical Guardrails: Features a mandatory, multi-checkbox Legal & Ethical verification modal to ensure responsible usage of the tool in authorized environments only.

Attached Asset: The_Joker_ENDj0K3R_Setup_1.0.0.exe


🚀 Installation & Setup

  1. Start LM Studio: Ensure you have LM Studio installed. Load your preferred model (e.g., Llama 3, Qwen, or Mistral) and click "Start Server" on the local server tab (usually http://localhost:1234).
  2. Download: Download the desired .exe installer from the Assets section below.
  3. Install: Run the setup executable and follow the standard Windows installation wizard.
  4. Connect: Upon launching the app, follow the Setup Wizard to connect to your LM Studio endpoint. Once the connection is verified, you are ready to begin!

⚖️ Legal & Ethical Disclaimer

The Joker - ENDj0K3R is intended strictly for educational purposes, authorized security auditing, and capture-the-flag (CTF) environments.
You MUST have written, explicit permission to test any target system. The developers assume no liability and are not responsible for any misuse, damage, or legal consequences caused by the utilization of this software.
