## What it is
TorBot is a Python CLI tool for OSINT on the dark web, crawling .onion sites over the Tor network and building link trees. It can save crawl results as JSON, visualize link relationships, and check whether onion links are live.

## Use cases
- crawl onion sites for osint research
- map link trees of dark web sites
- check if an onion link is live
- save crawled dark web links as
- visualize relationships between onion pages
- gather page titles and descriptions from hidden services

## When to choose
- you need to crawl or enumerate .onion sites for intelligence gathering
- you want a scriptable Python tool for dark web reconnaissance
- you need link-tree visualization of onion site structure

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose surface web crawler
- you require a polished GUI-first OSINT suite
- you cannot or will not route traffic through the Tor network
