username-permutations

v0.1.0Verified publisher

Generates likely usernames from a person's name to search with username tools

Community-packaged from github.com/osintverse-community/username-permutations: the registry's community pins the upstream release; the tool is its authors' work. Maintain that project? Claim this package.

Run

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/username-permutations","target":"Ada Lovelace","input_type":"name"}

Or just say: "Run osintverse-community/username-permutations on Ada Lovelace with OTInstaller." The registry's read-only MCP server at api.otinstaller.com/mcp can find tools without installing anything.

ot run osintverse-community/username-permutations --name "Ada Lovelace" --format table
ot install osintverse-community/username-permutations

Docker image in a read-only container · 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.

username-permutations

Turns a person's name into the usernames they are likely to use (ada.lovelace, alovelace, lovelace_ada, …), so you can check them with a username search tool. Runs offline and contacts nothing.

ot run osintverse-community/username-permutations --name "Ada Lovelace" --extra 1815

Each result is a username entity with the pattern that produced it. Confidence is always low: these are guesses to check, not findings.

Inputs

Input Required
name yes Full name; accents are folded to ASCII
extra no A year, number or nickname appended to the most common patterns

Next steps
