+This framework assists security researchers in utilizing AI to discover vulnerabilities, enhance testing, and improve cybersecurity practices. The goal is to make the digital world safer by enabling security professionals to conduct **more efficient and automated security assessments**.  
 
-HackingBuddyGPT helps security researchers use LLMs to discover new attack vectors and save the world (or earn bug bounties) in 50 lines of code or less. In the long run, we hope to make the world a safer place by empowering security  professionals to get more hacking done by using AI. The more testing they can do, the safer all of us will get.
+We strive to become **the go-to framework for AI-driven security testing**, supporting researchers and penetration testers with **reusable security benchmarks** and publishing **open-access research**.
 
-We aim to become **THE go-to framework for security researchers** and pen-testers interested in using LLMs or LLM-based autonomous agents for security testing. To aid their experiments, we also offer re-usable [linux priv-esc benchmarks](https://github.com/ipa-lab/benchmark-privesc-linux) and publish all our findings as open-access reports.

-The project originally started with [Andreas](https://github.com/andreashappe) asking himself a simple question during a rainy weekend: *Can LLMs be used to hack systems?* Initial results were promising (or disturbing, depends whom you ask) and led to the creation of our motley group of academics and professional pen-testers at TU Wien's [IPA-Lab](https://ipa-lab.github.io/).

 ## Build your own Agent/Usecase
 
 So you want to create your own LLM hacking agent? We've got you covered and taken care of the tedious groundwork.
 
 Create a new usecase and implement `perform_round` containing all system/LLM interactions. We provide multiple helper and base classes so that a new experiment can be implemented in a few dozen lines of code. Tedious tasks, such as
-connecting to the LLM, logging, etc. are taken care of by our framework. Check our [developer quickstart quide](https://docs.hackingbuddy.ai/docs/dev-guide/dev-quickstart) for more information.
+connecting to the LLM, logging, etc. are taken care of by our framework. 
 
 The following would create a new (minimal) linux privilege-escalation agent. Through using our infrastructure, this already uses configurable LLM-connections (e.g., for testing OpenAI or locally run LLMs), logs trace data to a local sqlite database for each run, implements a round limit (after which the agent will stop if root has not been achieved until then) and can connect to a linux target over SSH for fully-autonomous command execution (as well as password guessing).
