# OpenOSINT

> AI OSINT agent, MCP server, and framework chaining intelligence tools

OpenOSINT connects 20 investigation tools (like Holehe, Sherlock, Sublist3r, and AbuseIPDB) to natural-language AI agents. It can chain lookups across emails, usernames, IPs, and domains, compiling findings into structured markdown reports without manual tab switching. Available as a terminal REPL, local web UI, standalone CLI, and MCP server for tools like Claude Code and Claude Desktop.

- Check IP addresses for abuse scores, geolocation, and VPN or proxy usage

## Features

- Interactive terminal REPL that executes tools autonomously via Anthropic tool use
- 20 built-in intelligence tools covering email, username, breach, WHOIS, IP, DNS, and phone lookups
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for integration with Claude Desktop and Claude Code
- Local browser-based chat web UI with light and dark themes
- Direct CLI commands for running individual tool lookups without AI
- Support for local inference via Ollama as well as Anthropic and OpenRouter API keys
- Automatic generation and saving of structured markdown investigation reports

## Why it was saved

- [@bertoware, 6 June 2026](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZP-mkJBXkL/): Eliminates tedious manual tab switching and lookup chaining by letting an AI agent automatically search usernames across platforms, check registered emails, look up domains, and generate a structured report.
