conducting-external-reconnaissance-with-osint

conducting-external-reconnaissance-with-osint is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from RobotFlow-Labs/skills-repo. It costs 96 tokens per session (2,626 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

An external reconnaissance guide using OSINT, or open-source intelligence, to map an organization's internet-facing systems from public information. It covers sources such as DNS records, certificate logs, search engines, and social media.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to collect and organize public information about domains, certificates, online services, and related accounts during authorized security assessments.
Why use it?
It helps identify an organization's public attack surface without directly connecting to its systems. This can reveal assets and information that need review before security testing.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

conducting-external-reconnaissance-with-osint scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/agent.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
