🕵️‍♂️ (2-in-1) Email & Username OSINT suite for deep data extraction just from a single Email/Username. Analyzes 465+ actively maintained scan vectors (175+ email / 290+ username) for security research, investigations, and digital footprinting.

A powerful 2-in-1 OSINT suite engineered for deep Email and Username Intelligence.

With 465+ total scan vectors—including 175+ email-integrated sites and 290+ username platforms—you can map digital footprints, analyze target behavior, uncover interests, full metadata of usernames and verify account registrations in seconds.

Go beyond account enumeration. WebVetted turns an email or username into a complete identity investigation with deep OSINT enrichment, breach intel, AI analysis, and an interactive identity graph.

• 🔎 Deep Email & Username OSINT: Look up email registrations and perform advanced username profiling across 465+ platforms.
• 👤 Rich Metadata Scraping: Scrapes avatars, bio descriptions, follower counts, UID numbers, seller statuses, and account attributes.
• 🔀 Cross-Scan & Pivot Engine: Mines handles, profile links, and exposed email addresses from initial scans, automatically pivoting across secondary target vectors.
• 🤖 Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server: Native AI agent integration for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Antigravity, and LLMs to run autonomous OSINT scans and recursive pivots.
• 🛡️ Hudson Rock Infostealer Breach Intel: Query infostealer malware breach logs using the --hudson flag for high-priority target correlation.
• ⚡ High-Throughput Parallel Engine: Powered by httpx and curl_cffi for maximum concurrency with automated TLS fingerprint impersonation.
• 🔀 Permutation & Alias Generator: Wildcard-based username variation generation to catch typosquatting or alternative aliases.
• 📂 Multi-Format Reports: Automated exports to PDF (with profile photos), JSON, and CSV for pipeline integration.
• 🌐 Advanced Proxy Pivoting: Built-in proxy rotation with protocol auto-detection (http, socks5) and pre-scan health validation (--validate-proxies).
• 🎨 Responsive Terminal UI: Dynamic progress tracking, self-adaptive category grids (-lu/-le), and clear status reporting.

# Upgrade pip and install user-scanner
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install user-scanner

# Optional: Install with MCP Server support for AI agents
pip install "user-scanner[mcp]"

# Create and activate virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: .venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1

# Install package
pip install user-scanner

# Run instantly without installing permanently
nix run github:kaifcodec/user-scanner/main -- --help

# Drop into a temporary shell with user-scanner active
nix shell github:kaifcodec/user-scanner/main

Scan a single username or email address across all available platform modules:

user-scanner -u johndoe             # Single username scan
user-scanner -e johndoe@gmail.com   # Single email scan

An email scan proves an account exists but rarely reveals a handle. --cross-scan mines exposed handles, profile links, and secondary email addresses from target profiles, pivoting into multi-pass reconnaissance across all matching platforms:

user-scanner -u johndoe --cross-scan                                  # Pivot from username scan
user-scanner -e johndoe@gmail.com --cross-scan                        # Pivot from email scan
user-scanner -e johndoe@gmail.com --cross-scan --cross-links verified # Platform-verified links only
user-scanner -u johndoe --cross-scan --cross-depth 2        # Follow links two hops deep

💡 For confidence scoring, link classification rules, and cost models, see docs/CROSS_SCAN.md.

Check if a target username or email address has been exposed in infostealer malware infection logs:

user-scanner -u johndoe --hudson             # Username malware log check
user-scanner -e johndoe@gmail.com --hudson   # Email malware log check

🖼️ To view output terminal screenshots and visual previews, see docs/EXAMPLES.md.

Scan specific categories or individual modules, or list available modules in a responsive grid:

user-scanner -u johndoe -c dev                # Developer platforms only
user-scanner -e johndoe@gmail.com -m github   # Single module check
user-scanner -u johndoe -m github,instagram   # Specific comma-separated modules

user-scanner -lu                              # List user categories & modules grid
user-scanner -le                              # List email categories & modules grid

Scan multiple targets from an input file (one target per line):

user-scanner -uf usernames.txt   # Bulk username scan
user-scanner -ef emails.txt      # Bulk email scan

# Export results to PDF, JSON, or CSV
user-scanner -u johndoe -f pdf -o report.pdf
user-scanner -u johndoe -f json -o results.json

# Verbose URL reporting and show all results (including not found)
user-scanner -u johndoe -v --all

# Rotate proxies with pre-scan validation check
user-scanner -u johndoe -P proxies.txt --validate-proxies

Connect user-scanner directly to AI coding assistants and LLM platforms via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This enables AI agents (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Antigravity, Open-WebUI) to autonomously investigate handles and emails, pivot on exposed profiles, and analyze digital footprints.

# Start the MCP server over standard I/O (stdio)
user-scanner-mcp

# Optional: Enable verbose logging to stderr
user-scanner-mcp -v

Add user-scanner to your client configuration (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or mcp_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "user-scanner": {
      "command": "user-scanner-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Integrate the User Scanner engine directly into your Python scripts:

import asyncio
from user_scanner.core import engine
from user_scanner.email_scan.shopping import etsy

async def main():
    # Engine validates target against module and returns Result object
    result = await engine.check(etsy, "test@gmail.com")
    print(result.to_json())

asyncio.run(main())

💡 For complete Python API documentation and batch category checking examples, see docs/USAGE.md.

Web platforms constantly update authentication flows. Maintaining over 465+ scan modules requires around-the-clock commitment to keep the suite reliable and free for the cybersecurity community.
