Domain investigation playbook
DNS, subdomains, certificates, history and look-alikes of a domain, passively first
intermediate
Finds a domain's subdomains passively from dozens of public sources
Community-packaged from github.com/projectdiscovery/subfinder: the registry's community pins the upstream release; the tool is its authors' work. Maintain that project? Claim this package.
Run
Through ot mcp, an agent calls run_tool with this; ot asks you before anything that goes online or touches a target. Set it up: ot mcp install claude (or cursor, vscode, codex, gemini).
{"tool":"osintverse-community/subfinder","target":"otinstaller.com","input_type":"domain"}Or just say: "Run osintverse-community/subfinder on otinstaller.com with OTInstaller." The registry's read-only MCP server at api.otinstaller.com/mcp can find tools without installing anything.
ot run osintverse-community/subfinder d:otinstaller.com --format tableot install osintverse-community/subfinderDocker image in a read-only container · network allowed · no key · up to 10 min. The first ot run installs the tool after asking once. The example value is the registry's own test input, so this command has run. Drop --format table for JSON.
ot? Install it in one linecurl -fsSL https://get.otinstaller.com/ot | shot release for your machine from GitHub Releases.checksums.txt, and the Ed25519 signature on that file against the key built into the script.ot in /usr/local/bin or ~/.local/bin. Nothing else is written.

The same bytes on every install; ot pulls by digest, never by tag.ot checks the same identity before every install and refuses another signer.ot pulls the same digest from the mirror and checks the same signature.{

This repository packages github.com/projectdiscovery/subfinder for the OTInstaller Registry as osintverse-community/subfinder. The tool is the work of its authors, under the MIT license; this repository only holds the manifest and release workflow.
Report problems with the tool upstream, and problems with the packaging here. If you maintain the upstream project and want to publish it yourself, open an issue or run ot claim osintverse-community/subfinder: the package is transferred to you.
The Dockerfile here builds the upstream release at a pinned version, and the otinstaller release workflow builds, signs and publishes the image.

DNS, subdomains, certificates, history and look-alikes of a domain, passively first
subfinder finds subdomain. Tools that take those:
Alternatives to subfinder that also take a domain; ot auto runs every installed one on the same value.
Checks a domain's SPF, DMARC, MX, BIMI and DNSSEC records and reports problems
Finds registered look-alike domains for phishing, typosquatting and brand impersonation
Enumerates a domain's DNS: standard records, SRV services, zone transfer checks and DNSSEC
Gets every known URL of a domain from the Wayback Machine, Common Crawl, OTX and urlscan
Gathers emails, subdomains, hosts and IPs for a domain from public search engines and datasets
