```bash
# Basic scan
strix --target https://example.com

# Authenticated testing
strix --target https://app.com --instruction "Use credentials: user:pass"

# Focused testing
strix --target api.example.com --instruction "Focus on IDOR and auth bypass"

# CI/CD mode
strix -n --target ./ --scan-mode quick

# Cap cost and per-agent turns
strix --target https://example.com --max-budget 25 --max-turns 300

# Force diff-scope against a specific base ref
strix -n --target ./ --scan-mode quick --scope-mode diff --diff-base origin/main

# Multi-target white-box testing
strix -t https://github.com/org/app -t https://staging.example.com

# API spec + live target (OpenAPI/Swagger file or Postman collection)
strix -t ./openapi.yaml -t https://api.example.com

# Postman collection pulled live by id (+ optional environment)
strix -t "postman://<collection-uuid>?env=<environment-uuid>"

# Targets from a file
strix --target-list ./targets.txt

# Extra files placed in the sandbox workspace
strix --target ./my-project --workspace-file ./wordlist.txt

add_action('wp_ajax_mvl_theme_install_base', 'mvl_theme_install_base');

function mvl_theme_install_base() {
    check_ajax_referer('mvl_theme_install_base', 'nonce');

    $plugin_url  = sanitize_text_field($_GET['plugin']);
    $plugin_slug = 'motors-car-dealership-classified-listings';

    $upgrader = new Plugin_Upgrader(new Motors_Theme_Plugin_Upgrader_Skin(['plugin' => $plugin_slug]));
    $upgrader->install($plugin_url);
    mvl_theme_activate_plugin($plugin_slug);
}
