### Install with OTinstaller (Linux)
[OTinstaller](https://github.com/OSINTVerseHQ/OTinstaller) is a third-party tool manager that installs the `torbot` PyPI release into its own virtualenv. It is not maintained by the TorBot team, so please report problems with it [on the OTinstaller tracker](https://github.com/OSINTVerseHQ/OTinstaller/issues).
```sh
pipx install otinstaller
otinstaller init
otinstaller install torbot
# url:... is passed to TorBot as -u; the other flags go through unchanged
otinstaller run torbot -- url:https://example.com --depth 2 --visualize table
```

### Run the CLI
```sh
python main.py --help
