OnionSearch is a Python 3 CLI script that scrapes URLs from multiple .onion search engines such as Ahmia, Phobos, and Deeplink. It supports Tor proxying, engine selection/exclusion, CSV field output, and parallel scraping via multiprocessing.

Use cases

  • scrape urls from onion search engines
  • osint research on dark web sites
  • search tor hidden services from the command line
  • collect .onion links across multiple dark web search engines
  • export onion search results to csv
  • run dark web searches through a tor proxy

When to choose

  • you need to query many .onion search engines at once from a script or terminal
  • you want a lightweight pip-installable OSINT tool with CSV output and multiprocessing

When to avoid

  • you need a GUI or a general-purpose web crawler
  • you cannot run a Tor proxy locally
  • you need actively maintained support for specific engines that frequently change
