Random bounds and cookie files behave as written
CLI v1.3.1•September 4, 2026
This release makes two flags of atra (Atrahasis CLI) do exactly what the command line says, and say so when they cannot.
- A bound the generator cannot use is refused, not guessed. A
{{random.number(min,max)}}bound that did not fit, or was not a number, used to fall back silently to the default range; a range written backwards,number(9,1), stopped the process; an emptyenum()sent an empty string. Each of these now stops the run before anything is sent, with a message that names the placeholder and the argument. A blank argument still means the default. -b @cookies.txtreads the file. The spelling the help promises sent the literal text@cookies.txtas the Cookie header and read nothing.-b cookies.txtread the file but also sent the path itself as a second Cookie header. One rule now:@pathnames a file, and so does a plain path to a file that exists; anything else is sent as the cookie string.- A file's cookies are sent once. They go through the cookie jar, matched against the request host, and a missing
@filestops the run and names the file.
A command that relied on a silently defaulted random bound will now stop and say which argument to correct. Nothing else needs to change.
