OpenOSINT
Run agent-driven OSINT checks—email, breaches, IP, WHOIS, DNS, Shodan, GitHub, and more—while investigating threats, domains, or exposure before ship.
Overview
OpenOSINT is an MCP server for the Ship phase that provides 16 AI-assisted OSINT tools for email, breach, IP, WHOIS, DNS, Shodan, GitHub, and related intelligence lookups.
What is this MCP server?
- 16 OSINT tools covering email, breach, IP, WHOIS, DNS, Shodan, GitHub, and related lookups
- Dual surface: PyPI stdio MCP server plus AI agent REPL that requires Anthropic API key
- Optional keys enhance breach (HIBP), IP (ipinfo, IP2Location), and abuse reporting (AbuseIPDB) tools
- Version 2.15.2 on MCP server schema for standard agent registration
- Use for domain due diligence, infrastructure footprint review, and credential exposure awareness
- 16 OSINT tools documented in server metadata
- Package version: 2.15.2
- Transport: stdio via PyPI identifier openosint
Community signal: 589 GitHub stars.
What problem does it solve?
Solo builders lack a unified, agent-callable way to run OSINT during security review without juggling many APIs and terminal utilities.
Who is it for?
Technical indie builders who need repeatable domain, IP, breach, and GitHub exposure checks inside Claude Code or Cursor before or after launch.
Skip if: Non-technical users seeking one-click compliance certification, illegal surveillance, or teams unwilling to manage API secrets and ethical OSINT boundaries.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After installing the PyPI MCP server and optional API keys, your agent can execute consolidated OSINT tool calls to inform security, monitoring, and due-diligence decisions.
- Structured OSINT results across up to 16 tool endpoints per investigation
- Agent-ready domain, IP, DNS, and GitHub exposure summaries
- Inputs for ship security checklists and operate monitoring follow-ups

Security-focused MCP with 16 OSINT tools, not a generic web browser automation skill or passive uptime monitor alone.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is OpenOSINT for?
It is for solo and indie developers and security-curious builders who use MCP agents and need consolidated email, breach, IP, DNS, WHOIS, Shodan, and GitHub OSINT tooling.
When should I use OpenOSINT?
Use it during ship security review, competitor infrastructure research, or operate monitoring when you need structured open-source intelligence inside the agent workflow.
How do I add OpenOSINT to my agent?
Install the openosint PyPI package (v2.15.2) as a stdio MCP server in your client config, set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY for the agent REPL, and add optional keys like HIBP_API_KEY or IPINFO_TOKEN for enhanced tools.
