Maigret MCP server automates OSINT username searches across numerous platforms, providing formatted reports while prioritizing security through input validation and safe command execution.
The Maigret MCP server offers a reasonable level of safety due to its input validation and safe command execution practices. However, the need for write access to a reports directory and reliance on Docker introduce some risk. It's safe for automated username searches when used responsibly and ethically, but risky if used for malicious purposes or without proper understanding of its limitations.
Performance depends on the number of sites being searched and the speed of the target websites. Searching all sites can be time-consuming. Consider using tags to filter sites for faster results.
The primary cost is the computational resources required to run the Docker container. There may be indirect costs associated with API usage if Maigret relies on paid APIs in the future.

The Maigret MCP server offers a reasonable level of safety due to its input validation and safe command execution practices. However, the need for write access to a reports directory and reliance on Docker introduce some risk. It's safe for automated username searches when used responsibly and ethically, but risky if used for malicious purposes or without proper understanding of its limitations.
Autonomy is limited by the scope of the tools, which primarily focus on information gathering. The agent can automatically search for usernames and parse URLs, but it cannot perform any destructive actions.
Production Tip
Ensure the MAIGRET_REPORTS_DIR has appropriate permissions and sufficient disk space for storing reports.
Maigret collects publicly available information associated with usernames and URLs from various online platforms.
Using Maigret is legal as long as you only collect publicly available information and comply with the terms of service of the platforms you are searching. It's crucial to respect privacy and data protection laws.
If installed globally via npm, use `npm update -g mcp-maigret`. If running from source, pull the latest changes from the repository and rebuild.
Maigret may find email addresses if they are publicly associated with the username or URL being searched. However, it is not specifically designed for email address harvesting.
Maigret supports txt, html, pdf, json, csv, and xmind output formats.
Use tags to filter sites and limit the scope of the search. Avoid searching all sites unless necessary.
Check the Docker logs for errors, verify the MAIGRET_REPORTS_DIR is correctly configured, and ensure your user has write permissions to the reports directory.
