Do everything you'd normally do using VirusTotal's web page with this tool.


Welcome to the VirusTotal CLI, a tool designed for those who love both VirusTotal and command-line interfaces. With this tool you can do everything you'd normally do using VirusTotal's web page, including:

  • Retrieve information about a file, URL, domain name, IP address, etc.
  • Search for files and URLs using VirusTotal Intelligence query syntax.
  • Download files.
  • Manage your LiveHunt YARA rules.
  • Launch Retrohunt jobs and get their results.

And much more: https://virustotal.github.io/vt-cli/doc/vt.html

Snap maintainer notice:

This is NOT an official distribution of the VirusTotal CLI, refer to the snap's own issue tracker for support:

https://gitlab.com/brlin/vt-cli-snap/-/issues

The upstream preferred vt command is not available by default, you can set it up manually by running the following command in a text terminal:

 sudo snap alias vt-cli.vt vt


To scan files under storage mounted under the /media, /run/media, and the /mnt directories, you need to connect the snap to the removable-media snapd security confinement interface by running the following command in a text terminal:

 sudo snap connect vt-cli:removable-media
