Access and privacy
Access: Free
Open-source repository on GitHub. Local or self-hosted use may require API keys, accounts, models, or other third-party services.
Privacy sensitivity: Moderate
Infrastructure, case, or research queries may be logged by GitHub, APIs, model providers, or target services. Minimize identifiers and review scope.
Responsible use
- Read which modules are passive and which actively query or scan targets.
- Document scope before running automated collection.
- Store case data securely; these platforms often keep everything they collect.
