New Enhancements in v2.0.2:
1. Dynamic Status Messages:
Motivational Quotes: Displayed when the user levels up in age or strength (e.g., "You're a WiFi wizard in the making!").
Inactivity Messages: Shown when the agent undergoes decay due to inactivity (e.g., "Time to wake up, you're rusting!").
These dynamic messages are randomly chosen and help keep the user engaged, providing a personalized experience as they reach milestones or experience inactivity.
2. Quests System:
The plugin now includes a quests system where the agent can complete tasks for rewards.
Example quest: "Collect 10 WPA3 handshakes" with a reward of "⭐ Extra Star!"
Example quest: "Survive 100 epochs without decaying" with a reward of "🛡️ Resilience Badge."
Quests provide additional goals beyond epochs and handshakes, making the plugin more engaging and challenging for users.
3. Improved Age and Strength Titles:
The titles for both age and strength have been revised to be more interesting and engaging:
Age Titles: "Neon Spawn," "WiFi Outlaw," "Data Raider," etc.
Strength Titles: "Fleshbag," "Deauth King," "Handshake Hunter," etc.
These titles make the progression more varied and fun, allowing users to see their growth in a more exciting way.
4. Updated UI with Quests:
The UI now includes a section for quests, showing users their quest progress directly on the screen.
Completed Quests: Shows rewards for finished quests.
Active Quest Progress: Tracks how close the user is to completing their quests.
5. Quest Progress Tracking:
The plugin now tracks quest progress, showing completion percentages (e.g., "10% complete" for a quest based on handshakes or epochs).
Quests are saved as completed once the user achieves the required milestones, and rewards are automatically awarded.
6. Enhanced Data Management for Quests:
The plugin saves and loads the status of completed quests to ensure progress is maintained between reboots or sessions. This includes:
The completed quests list.
Other progress data such as epochs, handshakes, and network points.
This ensures that the user's quest progress is persistent, providing a more stable and reliable experience across sessions.
7. Updated Logging and Milestones:
The logging system has been maintained, and now includes milestone tracking for key intervals (e.g., every 100 epochs).
Milestones trigger UI updates with faces and messages to keep the agent engaged as they reach new achievements.
The plugin now includes advanced features like dynamic tuning, attack attempt tracking, a watchdog recovery system, improved logging, channel sanitization, and better error handling. These changes make the plugin more reliable, flexible, and effective in performing aggressive Wi-Fi probing and attacks.
What's New in Probenpwn 1.1.0:
Dynamic Parameter Tuning:
The dynamic_attack_delay method now adjusts the attack delay based not only on the client’s signal strength but also on the number of previous attack attempts for a given AP (Access Point). As the number of attacks increases, the delay between attacks decreases slightly, making the attacks more aggressive while preventing the system from overloading.
The delay is further randomized with random.uniform(0.9, 1.1) to prevent detection by automated systems that might look for consistent attack patterns.
Watchdog Thread for Recovery:
The plugin introduces a watchdog thread that periodically checks for the presence of the wlan0mon interface, which is essential for monitoring Wi-Fi networks. If this interface is missing (likely due to a Wi-Fi adapter crash), the watchdog attempts to restart the Pwnagotchi system automatically by running a systemctl restart command, providing a more robust recovery mechanism.
Tracking and Limiting Attack Attempts:
The plugin now tracks the number of attack attempts for each AP using a dictionary (attack_attempts). If an AP has been attacked more than a certain number of times, the delay for subsequent attacks is adjusted to prevent excessive and repetitive attacking, reducing the risk of detection.
This approach helps balance the aggressiveness of the attacks with performance considerations, ensuring that the plugin remains effective over extended periods.
Tracking Successful Handshakes:
The plugin now also tracks the number of successful handshakes captured per AP with the success_counts dictionary. Each time a handshake is successfully captured, the count for that AP is incremented. This can be useful for monitoring attack success rates and potentially adjusting attack strategies based on success frequency.
Improved Device Handling:
The handling of new and updated APs and clients is more refined. The plugin ensures that each device (AP or client) is only attacked if it's not on the whitelist. Devices are also tracked more effectively with better time management, ensuring that only recently seen devices are targeted.
The track_recent method tracks both APs and clients, with more granular control over when devices should be removed from the recent list based on activity.
Channel Sanitization:
The plugin includes a new sanitize_channel_list method, which ensures that only valid Wi-Fi channels (1-14 for 2.4 GHz and 36-165 for 5 GHz) are included in the scan list. This prevents attempts to scan invalid channels and ensures more efficient use of scanning resources.
Enhanced Logging and Error Handling:
The plugin now includes more detailed logging, especially around the dynamic attack delay, attack attempts, and handshakes. The logging makes it easier to monitor the plugin's behavior and diagnose issues.
It also improves error handling by catching and logging exceptions in key methods, ensuring that the plugin can gracefully handle unexpected issues without crashing.
More aggressive, simultaneous attacks thanks to multithreading, which allows you to target multiple APs and clients at once.
Dynamic attack delays based on signal strength, ensuring more efficient attacks and better targeting of weak or strong signals.
Greater handshake capture success rate through dual attacks (deauth + association) and a refined attack strategy that adapts to real-time conditions.
Full control over your attack strategy, including the ability to exclude specific networks and clients via whitelists.
Enhanced logging for better tracking of every handshake capture and attack attempt, providing deeper insights into your progress.
Added age_checkpoint method in plugin is a function that is called during the on_epoch event, which occurs periodically as your Pwnagotchi goes through its training or operating cycles. The purpose of this method is likely to trigger a status update or event notification when epochs are met.
With Version 2.0.1, your Pwnagotchi can now level up in style with achievements, new titles, and a decay system that keeps things exciting! Update now to track your progress and show off your milestones. 🎮🔥

Age, Strength, and Network Points Plugin for Pwnagotchi
Author: AlienMajik
Version: 1.0.4
License: MIT
Description
This Pwnagotchi plugin extends your Pwnagotchi’s user interface and functionality by adding three key stats:
Age (♥ Age): Tracks how many epochs your Pwnagotchi has lived.
Strength (Str): Indicates how much your Pwnagotchi has "trained," increasing every 10 epochs by default.
Network Points (★ Pts): Awards points based on the type of network handshakes your Pwnagotchi captures. Stronger encryptions yield more points, weaker encryptions yield fewer. The points are logged for your reference.
Network Points Scoring:
WPA3: +10 points
WPA2: +5 points
WEP/WPA: +2 points
Open/Unknown: +1 point
Each time points are awarded, an entry is appended to /root/network_points.log with the ESSID, encryption type, points gained, and the updated total.
All stats (age, strength, network points) are saved to /root/age_strength.json, ensuring that your Pwnagotchi remembers these values across reboots.
Features
Persistent Stats: Age, Strength, and Points survive restarts.
UI Integration: Displays stats directly on the Pwnagotchi screen.
Logging: Keeps a dedicated log file of network-related point gains.
Customizable: You can tweak increments and positions via config options.
The Neurolyzer plugin introduces a significant enhancement to the Pwnagotchi platform, aiming to augment the device's stealth and privacy capabilities. Its main function is to automate the randomization of the MAC address for the designated Wi-Fi interface. This action helps make the Pwnagotchi less visible to network monitoring systems, thereby decreasing its digital footprint within the networks it scans. The plugin offers several noteworthy features:
Varied Operational Modes: It introduces different modes of operation, including a 'stealth' mode. When activated, this mode triggers periodic changes to the device's MAC address, effectively masking its identity. This is particularly useful for operating within networks that are under strict surveillance.
Adjustable MAC Address Change Interval: The plugin allows users to customize how frequently the MAC address changes, providing control over the degree of stealth based on the user's needs.
User Interface Enhancements: Leveraging Pwnagotchi's existing UI framework, the Neurolyzer plugin offers immediate visual feedback on the device's screen. It displays the current mode of operation ('stealth' or 'normal') and the time until the next MAC address change. These interface elements are adjustable, enabling users to customize their display positions as needed.
Wi-Fi Interface Customization: Users have the flexibility to define which Wi-Fi interface the plugin should manage, catering to devices with multiple or unconventional interface names.
Seamless Activation/Deactivation: The plugin assesses its activation status upon loading, based on the configured settings, and commences its functions automatically if enabled. This feature allows for a hassle-free transition to stealth mode.
Comprehensive Logging: The Neurolyzer plugin meticulously logs key events and potential errors during its operation. This aids in monitoring the plugin's performance and simplifying troubleshooting processes.
In essence, the Neurolyzer plugin significantly bolsters the Pwnagotchi's capability for stealthy operations, ensuring users can engage in ethical hacking and network exploration with an enhanced level of privacy. Through its thoughtful integration with the Pwnagotchi ecosystem, the plugin elevates the device's functionality, aligning with the objectives of privacy-conscious users and ethical hackers.
