OpenOSINT

What is OpenOSINT about?

OpenOSINT combines a large‑language‑model (Claude, GPT‑4, or local Ollama) with a curated set of 18 OSINT utilities (email lookup, username enumeration, breach checks, WHOIS, IP intelligence, sub‑domain discovery, Google dorks, paste searches, phone intel, Shodan, VirusTotal, Censys, AbuseIPDB, GitHub, DNS analysis, live dork search, and URL scraping). The AI decides which tools to invoke, chains their results, and produces structured markdown/PDF reports.

How to use OpenOSINT?

• Installation: pip install openosint (or pip install -e . from source).
• Interactive REPL: run openosint and type a target (email, username, domain, IP, name). The agent will ask follow‑up questions, run tools, and save a report.
• Direct CLI: openosint email target@example.com or any sub‑command such as openosint shodan 8.8.8.8.
• Web UI: pip install "openosint[web]" && openosint web – opens a browser‑based chat with streaming output and tool cards.
• MCP server: start the built‑in server (python -m openosint.mcp_server); all tools become available to any MCP‑compatible client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, etc.).
• Parallel mode: add --parallel to run complementary tools concurrently.
• Configuration: place API keys in a .env file (Anthropic, OpenAI, HIBP, Shodan, VirusTotal, IP2Location, etc.).

Key Features

• AI‑driven tool selection & chaining – no need to remember which command to run.
• 18 modular recon utilities covering identity, infrastructure, and threat data.
• Multiple AI back‑ends – Anthropic Claude (default), local Ollama, or any OpenAI‑compatible endpoint.
• Native MCP server exposing every tool to Claude or other agents without extra wrappers.
• Parallel execution via asyncio for faster investigations.
• Automatic reporting – markdown generated after each run; optional PDF via reportlab.
• Session history saved locally and browsable with openosint history.
• Web UI with light/dark mode, streaming chat, and result cards.
• Docker support and easy deployment via docker compose.

Use Cases

• Threat‑intelligence hunting – enumerate email‑linked accounts, check breaches, map infrastructure.
• Incident response – quickly gather OSINT on malicious IPs, domains, or file hashes.
• Red‑team/pen‑test reconnaissance – automate sub‑domain enumeration, service fingerprinting, and Google dork harvesting.
• Fraud or AML investigations – verify personal data across social platforms and breach databases.
• SOC automation – integrate the MCP server into security orchestration pipelines; agents can call tools programmatically.

FAQ

Q: Which LLM can I use? A: Claude (Anthropic) is the default, but you can switch to a local Ollama model (--provider ollama) or any OpenAI‑compatible endpoint (--provider openai).

Q: Do I need all external binaries installed? A: Only holehe, sherlock, sublist3r, and phoneinfoga are required as separate binaries. If a binary is missing, the corresponding tool returns a clear error while other tools continue to work.

Q: How are API keys managed? A: Create a .env file (copy .env.example) at the project root. Keys are loaded automatically via python-dotenv. Keys can also be exported as environment variables.

Q: Can I run OpenOSINT without any cloud API keys? A: Yes. Tools that rely on free public APIs (e.g., WHOIS, DNS, generate_dorks) work without keys. However, premium services like Shodan, VirusTotal, or IP2Location require their respective keys.

Q: Is the MCP server cross‑platform? A: The server is a pure‑Python script (mcp_server.py) and runs on any system with Python 3.9+ and the project's dependencies installed.

Q: How are reports stored? A: After each investigation, a markdown file is saved under reports/ with a timestamped filename. If reportlab is installed, a PDF copy is also generated.

Run a real OSINT investigation in your browser — bring your own Anthropic / OpenRouter / Ollama key, no signup.

pip install openosint

Quick Start

# Interactive AI REPL (default)
openosint

# Web interface
openosint web

# Direct tool (no AI)
openosint email target@example.com

Usage

Start the REPL and investigate any target — the agent decides which tools to run and chains them on findings:

openosint > investigate target@example.com

  -> generate_dorks('target@example.com')
  -> search_email('target@example.com')
  Found: Spotify, WordPress, Gravatar, Office365

  -> search_breach('target@example.com')
  Found in 2 breaches: LinkedIn (2016), Adobe (2013)

  -> search_username('johndoe99')   <- pivoted from email findings
  Found: GitHub, Reddit, Twitter

  Report saved -> reports/2026-05-11_14-32-11_report.md
