What it does

This skill gives an AI agent a reference playbook for gathering publicly available information about companies, people, competitors, and technologies. Once installed, the agent follows a structured collection cycle, uses tiered source reliability ratings, builds targeted search queries, pulls out named entities and relationships into a simple knowledge-graph format, and flags significant changes between snapshots such as leadership changes or acquisitions. It is prompt-only guidance: it describes methods and does not itself run code or fetch anything.

Great for

  • Market or competitor researchers who want a consistent OSINT methodology
  • Analysts building structured notes on companies and people from public sources
  • Students learning how open-source intelligence work is organized

Skip it if

  • Surveillance or tracking of private individuals, since person-tracking queries can enable stalking or harassment; check legal and ethical limits first
  • Legal, financial, or investment decisions without independent verification, because the source-tier and sentiment scoring are heuristics, not validated methods

Try asking

  • “Plan an OSINT collection cycle on a competitor and list the sources to check by reliability tier”
  • “Build search queries to find a company's revenue, leadership, and partnerships”
  • “Extract entities and relationships from these articles into a knowledge-graph JSON structure”
  • “Compare this week's competitor snapshot against last week's and flag critical changes”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Pair it with a web search or browsing tool so the agent can actually gather sources; the skill alone only supplies method.
  • Ask the agent to label each finding with its source tier and confidence level so claims can be checked.
  • Limit research to companies and public topics, and avoid compiling personal profiles of private individuals.
