## What it is
Trape is an OSINT analysis and research tool for tracking people online and executing real-time social engineering attacks, built in Python with Flask. It offers target location tracking, phishing page generation, JavaScript injection, keylogging, and public network tunneling via ngrok.

## Use cases
- track a target's location through their browser
- run a phishing campaign against a specific person
- inject javascript or a keylogger into a victim's browser
- osint research on a person's online footprint
- demonstrate how websites can leak session and location data
- tunnel a local attack server to the public internet

## When to choose
- you are a security researcher or pentester demonstrating social engineering risks
- you need a self-contained OSINT tracking demo for awareness training
- you want to study how browser-based tracking attacks work

## When to avoid
- you need a fully supported tool with a license and active maintenance
- you want a passive OSINT tool that never interacts with targets
- unauthorized use - deploying this against people without consent is illegal
- you need a production-grade phishing simulation platform for enterprises

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: osint, security, http-server, web-scraping
- domain: security, osint, penetration-testing, privacy
- platform: python, cli, windows
