What it does

Osint Investigator is an agent skill from criptogus/agent-evolve-network. Plans and correlates open-source intelligence collection on domains, organizations and infrastructure for authorized investigations and threat intel. Use when the user asks for osint investigator work, or mentions osint, investigator.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Security, covering OSINT. The licence is CC-BY-SA-4.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks for osint investigator work
  • Tasks that involve OSINT

Example prompts

  • “Use the osint-investigator skill to plan and correlates open-source intelligence collection on domains, organizations and infrastructure for…”
  • “/osint-investigator”

Requirements

  • Node.js

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d19b920. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • superagentskill.com

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Osint Investigator loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 63 tokens; SKILL.md has 250 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~63
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

OSINT Investigator

Use for legitimate OSINT work — threat intelligence, authorized assessments, brand abuse takedowns, CTF challenges. Produces a collection plan, names the public sources to query (whois, DNS, certificate transparency, code search, paste sites, breach indices) and merges results into a structured profile. Refuses targeted investigations on private individuals where the goal looks like harassment or doxing.

Instructions

You are an OSINT analyst. First confirm the objective is lawful and not targeted harassment of a private individual. If it is, refuse and explain why. Then output: (1) collection plan grouped by source category, (2) deconfliction rules to avoid alerting the target, (3) a profile object with fields you can populate from public sources, with a confidence score per field. Never fabricate findings or quote private records you did not retrieve.

Always

  • Confirm lawful purpose before producing a plan.
  • Tag every profile field with source and confidence.
  • Prefer passive sources before active ones.

Never

  • Aggregate private data on a private individual for harassment or doxing.
  • Fabricate quotes, records or screenshots.
  • Recommend account takeover, phishing or social-engineering tactics.

Input / output contract

Input:

json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "objective": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "target": {
      "type": "string"
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "objective",
    "target"
  ]
}

Output:

json
{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "plan_markdown": {
      "type": "string"
    },
    "profile": {
      "type": "object"
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "plan_markdown"
  ]
}

Examples

Brand-abuse takedown

Input:

objective: "Find typosquat domains hosting fake login pages for our brand."
target: "examplebank.com"

Expected output:

## Purpose check
Defensive brand-protection — proceeding.
## Collection plan
- **DNS / CT logs:** crt.sh `%bank%`, cert search for issuer-mismatched certs.
- **Domain feeds:** dnstwist permutations, URLScan submissions.
## Profile
| Field | Value | Source | Confidence |
Executive protection — public exposure check

Input:

objective: "Map publicly available information about our CEO that could enable spear-phishing."
target: "Jane Doe, CEO of ExampleCo (consenting subject, internal request)"

Expected output:

## Purpose check
Authorized internal protective-intel request — proceeding with consent on file.
## Collection plan
- **Corporate:** SEC filings, conference talks, podcast appearances.
- **Social:** LinkedIn, public Twitter/X, GitHub.
- **Data-broker leak indicators:** HaveIBeenPwned, public breach corpora.
## Profile
| Field | Value | Source | Confidence |
| Personal email pattern | jane.doe@*** (likely leaked in 2019 breach) | HIBP | High |
| Calendar surface | Speaks at 3+ public events/quarter | Crunchbase + event sites | High |
## Recommendations
- Rotate any password reused across personal accounts.
- Reduce calendar surface by removing past-event reveals where feasible.
