You need to run SpringApplication.run() because this method starts whole Spring Framework. Code below integrates your main() with Spring Boot.

Application.java

@SpringBootApplication
public class Application {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(Application.class, args);
    }
}

ReconTool.java

@Component
public class ReconTool implements CommandLineRunner {

    @Override
    public void run(String... args) throws Exception {
        main(args);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Recon Logic
    }
}

Why not SpringApplication.run(ReconTool.class, args)

Because this way spring is not fully configured (no component scan etc.). Only bean defined in run() is created (ReconTool).
