OSINT Recon
Open Source Intelligence investigation and reconnaissance workflows.
how to use
/osint-recon
Apply OSINT methodology to the current investigation.
/osint-recon <target-type>
Plan an OSINT investigation for username, domain, email, or organization.
when to apply
Reference these guidelines when:
- investigating usernames or email addresses
- performing domain intelligence gathering
- conducting threat intelligence research
- analyzing social media footprints
- mapping organizational structure
- participating in OSINT CTF challenges
investigation methodology
OSINT Cycle
- Planning: Define objectives, scope, legal constraints
- Collection: Gather raw data from open sources
- Processing: Clean, normalize, deduplicate data
- Analysis: Correlate findings, identify patterns
- Dissemination: Report findings with confidence levels
- Feedback: Refine collection based on gaps
Evidence Classification
| Level | Description | Example | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Confirmed | Multiple independent sources | Username + email + profile photo match | |
| Probable | Strong single source or partial corroboration | Username match + similar bio | |
| Possible | Single weak source | Username exists on platform | |
| Doubtful | Contradictory or unreliable | Common username, no distinguishing info |
username enumeration
Sherlock-Style Patterns
Key Tools
- Sherlock: Username enumeration across 400+ sites
- WhatsMyName: Web-based username search
- Namechk: Domain + username availability
domain intelligence
DNS & WHOIS
Technology Fingerprinting
- Wappalyzer: Browser extension for tech stack detection
- BuiltWith: Historical technology data
- Shodan: Internet-connected device search
- Censys: Certificate and host search
email intelligence
Email Verification Patterns
Tools
- theHarvester: Email, subdomain, name harvesting
- Hunter.io: Email pattern discovery
- HaveIBeenPwned: Breach exposure check
dark web intelligence
CTI Feed Sources (from DeepDarkCTI)
| Source Type | Examples | Use Case | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paste sites | Pastebin, GhostBin | Credential leaks, data dumps | |
| Forums | Monitored via threat intel platforms | Threat actor discussion | |
| Marketplaces | Tracked by law enforcement | Compromised data sales | |
| Telegram | Public channels | Real-time threat chatter | |
| Discord | Public servers | Community threat intel |
CTI Integration Pattern
social media analysis
Profile Analysis Framework
- Account metadata: Creation date, follower/following ratio, posting frequency
- Content analysis: Topics, sentiment, language patterns
- Network analysis: Connections, group memberships, interactions
- Temporal analysis: Activity patterns, time zones, posting schedules
- Cross-platform correlation: Matching profiles across platforms
OSINT Workflow Template (from Obsidian OSINT Templates)
data correlation techniques
Entity Resolution
Pivot Points
- Username → email → real name → address
- Domain → IP → other domains (reverse DNS)
- Phone → social media → real identity
- Image → EXIF data → GPS coordinates → other photos
integration with the operator's environment
| Component | Integration | |
|---|---|---|
memory MCP server | Store entities, relations, observations as investigation graph | |
security-auditor agent | Automate reconnaissance for security assessments | |
PostToolUse hook | All OSINT commands logged in audit.log | |
sequential MCP | Step-by-step reasoning for complex correlations | |
CoreMind security layer | Hash chain audit trail for investigation activities |
Using Memory MCP for Investigations
