Command Runner

Command Runner is an extension that allows you to execute system commands directly from within Burps interface. It provides a tabbed command environment with a persistent command playbook, making it possible to run OS-level tools without leaving the Burp window.

Features

• Execute arbitrary OS commands from a dedicated tab inside Burp
• Multiple independent command tabs, each running commands in isolation
• Command playbook for saving and reloading frequently used commands across sessions
• Real-time output display as commands execute
• Cancel running commands at any time without closing the tab
• Commands and playbook entries persist via a commands.txt file in Burps working directory

Usage

1. Open the Command Runner tab that appears in Burp after the extension loads.
2. Click + New Tab to open additional independent command tabs if needed.
3. Type a command into the input field (for example, nmap -sV target.com) and click Run command.
4. View the command output in real time in the output pane below the input field.
5. To use the playbook, select a saved command from the dropdown to populate the input field, or click Save Command to add the current command to the playbook.
6. To remove a playbook entry, select it from the dropdown and click Delete Command.
7. To pre-populate the playbook, edit commands.txt directly (one command per line) before starting a session. On macOS/Linux this file is located in your home directory; locate it with

   find ~ -name commands.txt -type f

8. Click Cancel to stop a running command, or Close Tab to remove the current tab.
