Usage

To fetch archived URLs simply run it and specify the target host.

 $ curate <host>
 $ curate example.com

If you want to search for strings straight away in the output you can also specify your search term or regular expression by using the -r flag.

$ curate <host> -r <search term>
$ curate example.com -r example

List of search terms

Curate outputs the results into a curate.txt file which allows you to easily grep through the URLs for keywords. Here are some ideas for things to grep for in curate.txt.

  • admin
  • password
  • key
  • api
  • hmac
  • url
  • path
  • redir
  • php
  • id=

It is advisable to exclude images and stylesheets from your searches by piping everything into ‘grep -v’.
