# osintverse-community/greynoise

Looks up an IP address in GreyNoise to see whether it is internet background noise or a known benign service

## Install and run

```sh
ot install osintverse-community/greynoise
ot run osintverse-community/greynoise ip:1.1.1.1
```

The first `ot run` installs the tool after asking once. New to `ot`? See https://otinstaller.com/docs/getting-started.

From an AI agent, through ot's MCP server (`ot mcp`):

```
run_tool {"tool":"osintverse-community/greynoise","inputs":{"ip":"1.1.1.1"}}
```

## Inputs

| Name | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `ip` | ip | yes |  |  |

## Outputs

Finds: ip, organization, other.

- `organization`: Known owner of a benign service
- `other`: Noise and RIOT classification

## What a run does

- Does not contact the target.
- Does not collect personal data.
- Needs an account (it logs in, or uses an account or API key of yours).
- Does not notify the target.
- Usually takes about 5 seconds.
- Connects to the internet.

An agent needs the person's consent before running this tool, because it uses the person's own account or API key. See https://otinstaller.com/docs/agents#consent.

## API keys

- `GREYNOISE_API_KEY` (required, free tier): Your GreyNoise API key (a free Community key works) Get one at https://viz.greynoise.io/account/api-key

Store a key with `ot keys set NAME`; it stays in the OS keychain.
