./sif -u https://example.com -dirlist medium
# subdomain enumeration
./sif -u https://example.com -dnslist medium
# port scanning
./sif -u https://example.com -ports common
# javascript framework detection + cloud misconfig
./sif -u https://example.com -js -c3
# shodan host intelligence (requires SHODAN_API_KEY env var)
./sif -u https://example.com -shodan
# sql recon + lfi scanning
./sif -u https://example.com -sql -lfi
# framework detection (with cve lookup)
./sif -u https://example.com -framework
