analyzing-browser-forensics-with-hindsight

analyzing-browser-forensics-with-hindsight is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Youngmaidainon/Agent-Level-Up. It costs 95 tokens per session (2,825 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of analyzing-browser-forensics-with-hindsight, MIT.

A procedure for collecting browser activity from Chrome-based browsers such as Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi. It combines records such as history, downloads, cookies, saved logins, and extensions into a timeline.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for incident response, insider-threat investigations, and other cases where investigators need to review web activity and export the results as XLSX, JSON, or SQLite.
Why use it?
It helps investigators reconstruct what happened when browser data is spread across many database files and record types.

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

analyzing-browser-forensics-with-hindsight 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/agent.py, scripts/process.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.

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.

Analyzing Browser Forensics with Hindsight

Overview

Hindsight is an open-source browser forensics tool designed to parse artifacts from Google Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers (Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera, Vivaldi). It extracts and correlates data from multiple browser database files to create a unified timeline of web activity. Hindsight can parse URLs, download history, cache records, bookmarks, autofill records, saved passwords, preferences, browser extensions, HTTP cookies, Local Storage (HTML5 cookies), login data, and session/tab information. The tool produces chronological timelines in multiple output formats (XLSX, JSON, SQLite) that enable investigators to reconstruct user web activity for incident response, insider threat investigations, and criminal cases.

When to Use

  • When investigating security incidents that require analyzing browser forensics with hindsight
  • When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
  • When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
  • When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8+ with Hindsight installed (pip install pyhindsight)
  • Access to browser profile directories from forensic image
  • Browser profile data (not encrypted with OS-level encryption)
  • Timeline Explorer or spreadsheet application for analysis

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.
