## What it is
A curated list of open-source OSINT tools for the dark web, organized by category: search engines, onion link discovery, onion link scanning, and dark web crawlers. It is primarily a link collection pointing to external projects rather than software itself.

## Use cases
- find tools to search the dark web for osint investigations
- discover crawlers for scraping onion sites
- find tools to check if onion links are online
- research dark web threat intelligence resources
- compare dark web search engine options
- get started with tor-based osint tooling

## When to choose
- you want a curated starting point for dark web osint tooling
- you need to discover multiple tools across search, scanning, and crawling categories
- you are researching the dark web osint ecosystem

## When to avoid
- you need a single ready-to-run tool rather than a list of links
- you want software with a license, releases, or support from this repository itself
- you need production-grade dark web monitoring out of the box
