Workflow + Analysis
Cerebra keeps execution, documentation, enrichment, and analysis in one workspace, so the workflow does not break every time the task changes.
Workflow / Runbooks
Reusable command cards push directly into the active shell or pane instead of living in disconnected notes.
Workflow / AI Toolkit
The AI Toolkit can reason over the current workspace instead of acting like a generic detached chatbot.
Workflow / CyberViewer
Attack-flow graphs stay connected to runbooks and previews so the app captures both action and structure.
Workflow / Notes
Session notes, evidence, screenshots, code blocks, and procedures stay in the same app instead of fragmenting across tools.
Analysis / Intel
Enrich domains, URLs, IPs, and hashes from the same workspace instead of pivoting into a pile of browser tabs.
Analysis / RevEng
Map suspicious APIs to ATT&CK, triage binaries, deobfuscate content, and extract IoCs in the same workspace that holds the live session.
Analysis / Crypto
Decode JWTs, hash payloads, convert formats, and run utility transforms without copying data into random web tools.
Protocols
Network devices, servers, desktops, web consoles, and local shell work stay in one workspace instead of fragmenting across separate tools.
