Run

TerminalAgent

Through ot mcp, an agent calls run_tool with this; ot asks you before anything that goes online or touches a target. Set it up: ot mcp install claude (or cursor, vscode, codex, gemini).

{"tool":"osintverse-community/unfurl","target":"https://www.google.com/search?q=osint&ei=Lp4pYNHzE4mn5NoP8pKTqAw","input_type":"url"}

Or just say: "Run osintverse-community/unfurl on https://www.google.com/search?q=osint&ei=Lp4pYNHzE4mn5NoP8pKTqAw with OTInstaller." The registry's read-only MCP server at api.otinstaller.com/mcp can find tools without installing anything.

ot run osintverse-community/unfurl url:https://www.google.com/search?q=osint&ei=Lp4pYNHzE4mn5NoP8pKTqAw --format table

ot install osintverse-community/unfurl

Python wheel, run in a read-only container (Docker optional with --native) · no network · no key · up to 1 min. The first ot run installs the tool after asking once. The example value is the registry's own test input, so this command has run. Drop --format table for JSON.
