otlite is the no-Docker edition of OTInstaller for Linux and macOS: [install it](https://otinstaller.com/otlite) with `curl -fsSL https://get.otinstaller.com/otlite | sh`.

## Run it

| Input | otlite command | Toutatis receives |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Username | `otlite run toutatis -- u:johndoe` | `toutatis --username johndoe` |

Arguments after `--` that aren't typed inputs go to the tool unchanged.

## Before you run it

- **Dual-use.** otlite prints this before installing it: You are solely responsible for how you use these tools and for complying with all applicable laws. Use them only on targets you are authorized to investigate.
- **Needs a login or API key.** Set it up before the first lookup; batch runs skip it unless you pass `--include-credentialed`.

## What a run leaves

- `results/toutatis/johndoe/<time>_toutatis_johndoe_<run id>.txt`
- `results/toutatis/johndoe/<time>_toutatis_johndoe_<run id>.meta.json`
- `results/toutatis/johndoe/<time>_toutatis_johndoe_<run id>.envelope.json`

The envelope is the same shape for every tool: the tool and version, the input, timing, exit code and status, the emails, domains, IP addresses and URLs found in the output, and the output file's path, hash and size. `otlite results --tool toutatis` lists saved runs, `otlite extract toutatis` pulls out indicators and `otlite diff toutatis johndoe` compares the two latest runs.

## With other tools

Batch runs skip it: needs API keys or setup; pass --include-credentialed.
