Why we included this project

Pwnagotchi turns a Raspberry Pi Zero W into a small device that wanders around and collects WPA handshakes, using an A2C reinforcement-learning agent that tunes its own parameters against whatever networks it sees. The captures come out as PCAP files ready for hashcat, including PMKIDs and half or full handshakes, which is the whole point: instead of a game demo, you get a tool that improves at a real task. Security researchers and hobbyist pentesters use it to automate handshake collection cheaply, and multiple units can coordinate to split channels. Just remember it is only legal on networks you own or have written permission to test.
