## What it is
Skiptracer is a Python-based OSINT web scraping framework that aggregates paid and free lookup services to enumerate target information such as phone numbers, emails, and usernames. It provides a menu-driven CLI for passive reconnaissance.

## Use cases
- find information associated with a phone number
- look up email addresses linked to a person
- enumerate usernames across services for OSINT
- passive reconnaissance during a pentest
- scrape public lookup sites from the command line

## When to choose
- you need a free, scriptable OSINT scraping tool for passive recon
- you want a menu-driven CLI to query multiple lookup sources at once

## When to avoid
- you need maintained software with active support - the project moved to GitLab and is no longer supported here
- you need Python 3 compatibility - the migration is incomplete
- you need guaranteed accuracy from paid lookup services

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
