cemaxecuter f980e2e76d Add distributed agent architecture for multi-node signal intelligence
Features:
- Standalone agent server (intercept_agent.py) for remote sensor nodes
- Controller API blueprint for agent management and data aggregation
- Push mechanism for agents to send data to controller
- Pull mechanism for controller to proxy requests to agents
- Multi-agent SSE stream for combined data view
- Agent management page at /controller/manage
- Agent selector dropdown in main UI
- GPS integration for location tagging
- API key authentication for secure agent communication
- Integration with Intercept's dependency checking system

New files:
- intercept_agent.py: Remote agent HTTP server
- intercept_agent.cfg: Agent configuration template
- routes/controller.py: Controller API endpoints
- utils/agent_client.py: HTTP client for agents
- utils/trilateration.py: Multi-agent position calculation
- static/js/core/agents.js: Frontend agent management
- templates/agents.html: Agent management page
- docs/DISTRIBUTED_AGENTS.md: System documentation

Modified:
- app.py: Register controller blueprint
- utils/database.py: Add agents and push_payloads tables
- templates/index.html: Add agent selector section

Features

  • Pager Decoding - POCSAG/FLEX via rtl_fm + multimon-ng
  • 433MHz Sensors - Weather stations, TPMS, IoT devices via rtl_433
  • Aircraft Tracking - ADS-B via dump1090 with real-time map and radar
  • Vessel Tracking - AIS ship tracking with VHF DSC distress monitoring
  • ACARS Messaging - Aircraft datalink messages via acarsdec
  • Listening Post - Frequency scanner with audio monitoring
  • Satellite Tracking - Pass prediction using TLE data
  • ADS-B History - Persistent aircraft history with reporting dashboard (Postgres optional)
  • WiFi Scanning - Monitor mode reconnaissance via aircrack-ng
  • Bluetooth Scanning - Device discovery and tracker detection
  • Spy Stations - Number stations and diplomatic HF network database

Installation / Debian / Ubuntu / MacOS


**1. Clone and run:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/smittix/intercept.git
cd intercept
./setup.sh
sudo -E venv/bin/python intercept.py

Docker (Alternative)

git clone https://github.com/smittix/intercept.git
cd intercept
docker compose up -d

Note: Docker requires privileged mode for USB SDR access. See docker-compose.yml for configuration options.

ADS-B History (Optional)

The ADS-B history feature persists aircraft messages to Postgres for long-term analysis.

# Start with ADS-B history and Postgres
docker compose --profile history up -d

Then open /adsb/history for the reporting dashboard.

Open the Interface

After starting, open http://localhost:5050 in your browser. The username and password is admin:admin

The credentials can be change in the ADMIN_USERNAME & ADMIN_PASSWORD variables in config.py


Hardware Requirements

Hardware Purpose Price
RTL-SDR Required for all SDR features ~$25-35
WiFi adapter Must support promiscuous (monitor) mode ~$20-40
Bluetooth adapter Device scanning (usually built-in) -
GPS Any Linux supported GPS Unit ~10

Most features work with a basic RTL-SDR dongle (RTL2832U + R820T2).

Not using an RTL-SDR Device?
Intercept supports any device that SoapySDR supports. You must however have the correct module for your device installed! For example if you have an SDRPlay device you'd need to install soapysdr-module-sdrplay.
GPS Usage
gpsd is needed for real time location. Intercept automatically checks to see if you're running gpsd in the background when any maps are rendered.
