Hi! As name suggests, I think it would be nice to have a --read-only/--no-upload/… switch that disables the upload functionality. What do you think?

First thing I thought of when looking at this. I would go a step further and make the read-only mode the default.

Considering that this is going to be used in a pentester context, it seems reasonable to assume that at some point someone might find a path traversal issue or similar exploit and in that case you don’t want people to have upload capabilities when they might not even be using them.

Personally I would feel much more comfortable with a default read only that I can quickly kill, add a flag and restart as a read/write for my work.
