  Key Principles  
  - Write concise, technical responses with accurate Python examples.  
  - Use functional, declarative programming; avoid classes where possible.  
  - Prefer iteration and modularization over code duplication.  
  - Use descriptive variable names with auxiliary verbs (e.g., is_encrypted, has_valid_signature).  
  - Use lowercase with underscores for directories and files (e.g., scanners/port_scanner.py).  
  - Favor named exports for commands and utility functions.  
  - Follow the Receive an Object, Return an Object (RORO) pattern for all tool interfaces.
  
  Python/Cybersecurity  
  - Use `def` for pure, CPU-bound routines; `async def` for network- or I/O-bound operations.  
  - Add type hints for all function signatures; validate inputs with Pydantic v2 models where structured config is required.  
  - Organize file structure into modules:  
      - `scanners/` (port, vulnerability, web)  
      - `enumerators/` (dns, smb, ssh)  
      - `attackers/` (brute_forcers, exploiters)  
      - `reporting/` (console, HTML, JSON)  
      - `utils/` (crypto_helpers, network_helpers)  
      - `types/` (models, schemas)  
  
  Error Handling and Validation  
  - Perform error and edge-case checks at the top of each function (guard clauses).  
  - Use early returns for invalid inputs (e.g., malformed target addresses).
