Built with Next.js, MapLibre GL, FastAPI, and Python. 40+ toggleable data layers, including SAR ground-change detection, Telegram OSINT (public channel previews geoparsed onto the map), a server-side recon toolkit (DNS, WHOIS, sanctions, BGP, IP sweep, and more), supply-chain risk overlays, and malware/C2 + CISA KEV cyber threat feeds. Multiple visual modes (DEFAULT / SATELLITE / FLIR / NVG / CRT). Right-click any point on Earth for a country dossier, head-of-state lookup, entity-graph expansion, and the latest Sentinel-2 satellite photo. ShadowBroker has no accounts, product telemetry, or analytics; the dashboard talks to your self-hosted backend. Sensitive recon and Shodan queries never hit third-party APIs from the browser — they are proxied through the backend with SSRF guards and local-operator auth. The OpenClaw / agent command channel exposes the same recon backends plus full telemetry search — no separate API integration required.

Designed for analysts, researchers, radio operators, and anyone who wants to see what the world looks like when every public signal is on the same map.

A surprising amount of global telemetry is already public — aircraft ADS-B broadcasts, maritime AIS signals, satellite orbital data, earthquake sensors, mesh radio networks, police scanner feeds, environmental monitoring stations, internet infrastructure telemetry, and more. This data is scattered across dozens of tools and APIs. ShadowBroker combines all of it into a single interface.

The project does not introduce new surveillance capabilities — it aggregates and visualizes existing public datasets. It is fully open-source so anyone can audit exactly what data is accessed and how. ShadowBroker does not include product telemetry, analytics, or accounts. Operator-supplied keys stay in your local deployment, but live OSINT features necessarily make outbound requests to the public data providers you enable or query.

ShadowBroker includes an optional Shodan connector for operator-supplied API access (SHODAN_API_KEY) and a Recon Toolkit panel for keyless OSINT lookups. Both run server-side only: the browser calls your self-hosted /api/osint/* and /api/tools/shodan/* routes; outbound requests are made by the backend after SSRF validation. Recon requires local-operator access (same trust model as layer toggles and admin routes). Shodan results render as a separate map overlay and remain subject to Shodan’s terms of service.

• Track Air Force One, the private jets of billionaires and dictators, and every military tanker, ISR, and fighter broadcasting ADS-B. Air Force One and all of the accompanying Presidential/Vice Presidential planes are highlighted and monitored from the moment they leave the ground.
• Connect an AI agent as a co-analyst through ShadowBroker's HMAC-signed agentic command channel — supports OpenClaw and any other agent that speaks the protocol (Claude, GPT, LangChain, custom). The agent gets full read/write access to all 40+ data layers, compact cross-layer search (search_telemetry, search_news), the full recon toolkit (osint_lookup for IP/DNS/WHOIS/sanctions/CVE/etc.), entity-graph expansion, pin placement, map control, SAR ground-change, mesh networking, and alert delivery. It sees everything the operator sees and can take actions on the map in real time.
• Communicate on the InfoNet testnet — The first decentralized intelligence mesh built into an OSINT tool. Obfuscated messaging with gate personas, Dead Drop peer-to-peer exchange, and a built-in terminal CLI. No accounts, no signup. Privacy is not guaranteed yet — this is an experimental testnet — but the protocol is live and being hardened.
• Right-click anywhere on Earth for a country dossier (head of state, population, languages), Wikipedia summary, and the latest Sentinel-2 satellite photo at 10m resolution
• Click a KiwiSDR node and tune into live shortwave radio directly in the dashboard. Click a police scanner feed and eavesdrop in one click.
• Watch 11,000+ CCTV cameras across 6 countries — London, NYC, California, Spain, Singapore, and more — streaming live on the map
• See GPS jamming zones in real time — derived from NAC-P degradation analysis of aircraft transponder data
• Monitor satellites overhead color-coded by mission type — military recon, SIGINT, SAR, early warning, space stations — with SatNOGS and TinyGS ground station networks
