@cap.js/cli

cli is a simple command-line interface for solving CAPTCHAs made with Cap. It's mainly designed for testing and when you need to solve these CAPTCHAs in a browser without JavaScript support.

❯ bunx @cap.js/cli

@cap.js/cli cli solver for cap challenges

Usage:
  $ bunx @cap.js/cli <challenges>

Options:
  <challenges>  The challenges to solve in
                format `salt:target`

Usage

To use cli, you need to pass the challenges to solve in the format salt:target, separated by a space. For example:

❯ bunx @cap.js/cli e455cea65e98b:dceb fb8d25f6abac:93f1 ...

@cap.js/cli 2 challenges

e455cea65e98b:dceb:9100
fb8d25f6abac:93f1:76570
...

The output format is salt:target:nonce, where nonce is the solution nonce. You can then turn this into JSON to send to the Cap server helper:

const input = "e455cea65e98b:dceb:9100\nfb8d25f6abac:93f1:76570";

console.log(input.split("\n").map((l) => l.split(":")));

[
  ["e455cea65e98b", "dceb", "9100"],
  ["fb8d25f6abac", "93f1", "76570"]
]

Generating the command

You can generate code to call cap.js/cli from the challenges using this:

const response = {
  "challenge": [
    [ "e455cea65e98b", "dceb" ],
    [ "fb8d25f6abac", "93f1" ],
    ...
  ],
  "token": "...",
  "expires": 1745343553913
};

const challenges = response.challenge.map((c) => c.join(":")).join(" ");
const command = `bunx @cap.js/cli ${challenges}`;

console.log(command); // bunx @cap.js/cli e455cea65e98b:dceb fb8d25f6abac:93f1 ...

Note

The code above doesn't validate if the challenges are valid and not potentially malicious. If you're getting the challenge list from an untrusted source, make sure to validate it before giving them to the user.
