Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00043 | $0.02999 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.01499 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00600 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00300 |
Grade A, and why
osint-tool-catalog scanned grade A with 0 findings 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.
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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

OSINT tool catalog
What this skill does
Produces a categorised catalog of open-source intelligence tools relevant to a journalist's investigation, with practical guidance on what each tool does, when to use it, and what its limitations are.
When to use this skill
- You are starting an investigation and need to know which OSINT tools exist for a specific task (geolocation, account analysis, corporate records, satellite imagery, etc.)
- You know the general category of tool you need but not the specific name or where to find it
- You want a reference list of tools organised by investigation type, to keep on hand for your newsroom
- You are training a colleague or intern on OSINT methods and need a structured starting inventory
What you need to provide
Required: The type of investigation or the category of tools you need (e.g., "geolocation tools," "corporate ownership research," "full catalog for a newsroom reference sheet") Optional: The specific platform or data type you are working with (e.g., "Telegram account analysis," "ship tracking," "Chinese corporate records"); your skill level (beginner, intermediate, advanced); whether you need free tools only or can use paid services
How the Assistant Approaches This
-
Identifies the investigation category or categories relevant to the request. If the user asks for a full catalog, covers all categories. If they ask for a specific domain, focuses there.
-
For each category, lists the most reliable and widely used tools. Provides: tool name, URL (when it is a web tool or has a stable homepage), what it does in one sentence, free vs. paid status, and a practical note on what it is good at and where it falls short.
-
Groups tools by investigation domain, not alphabetically. Domains: geolocation and mapping, account and identity analysis, satellite and aerial imagery, facial recognition and biometrics, archiving and preservation, transport tracking (maritime, aviation, rail), corporate and financial research, document and metadata analysis, network and infrastructure analysis, social media monitoring. Adds domains as needed if the investigation warrants it.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

osint-tool-catalog is a skill published in the GitHub repository ur-grue/autopunk-media-skills (32 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 2,999 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-04.

Resolve entities across an investigation's documents into a Neo4j graph after a mandatory human review gate.

entity-crossref
Cross-reference an investigation's resolved entities against the investigator's own corpus (FOSS default, zero external data) and, opt-in, sanctions/PEP watchlists, using a local yente + OpenSearch stack.
