geo-sleuth from assafkip/investigators-copilot is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Geolocate or chronolocate a photo with tool-verified reasoning, then route every output into the case's EV-NNNN evidence chain. Companion to the upstream Oldcircle/geo-sleuth agent skill (MIT): its scripts do metadata, OCR, reverse image search, sun/shadow math, OSM corridors, DEM skylines and street-view ranking. Use when: "where was this photo taken", "geolocate this image", "when was this taken", "chronolocate", "find the location of this picture". NOT for: identifying a person in a photo…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# geo-sleuth (Investigators Copilot companion)
Adapted from https://github.com/Oldcircle/geo-sleuth (MIT, see `NOTICE.md`). This
file does NOT vendor the upstream scripts. It tells you how to install them, the
rules that make their output defensible, and how to land every artifact in the
case's evidence chain under `.claude/rules/evidence-capture-protocol.md`.
## 0. Gate before you start
- **Purpose check.** If the photo shows a private residence, a minor, or a person
who is not a case target, stop and ask the founder what the location is for.
Upstream's own rule: never use it to find people who have not agreed to be found.
- **Register the photo first.** A client-provided photo becomes an EV item before
any analysis touches it:
```bash
bash skills/osint/scripts/ingest-client-document.sh <photo> <slug> screenshot_only \
--case <case> --provided-by "<who>"
python3 skills/osint/scripts/extract-intake.py --case <case>
```
A photo found online is captured by URL instead:
`bash skills/osint/scripts/capture-evidence.sh <url> <slug> --case <case>`.
Run geo-sleuth on a COPY (`cp` the EV original into a scratch dir). Never write

How to install
mdr add assafkip/investigators-copilot/geo-sleuth@sha256:f225a78ca00740d4The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.04abae1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
