- Deep-dive a subject's social media presence — profile metadata, follower and mutual network, content analysis, and posting-time pattern of life across Instagram, Facebook, X/Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn, Reddit, Telegram and… Use when profiling a social account, mapping someone's associates, inferring a subject's timezone or routine from their posts, or archiving a profile before it is deleted.
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
# Pattern of Life from Socials Pattern-of-life analysis turns scattered public posts into a model of where someone is, when, and with whom. It is the most abusable technique in this repo: the same method produces a due-diligence report and a stalking dossier. The difference is authorization and scope, not tradecraft. The beginner error is collecting posts instead of analysing them — screenshots of a feed are not intelligence. Work four layers: account metadata, network, content, temporal behaviour. The first and last are the two everyone skips, and the two the subject can't curate. ## Step 1 — Authorized scope Read [../../ETHICS.md](../../ETHICS.md), then write down before opening a single profile: - **Subject** — the account(s) and the real-world entity you believe is behind them. - **Objective** — the question that ends the investigation. "Pattern of life" is not one. "Does this vendor's EU lead actually live in the EU" is. - **In / out of bounds** — explicitly. Minors, uninvolved family, home address, health, religion, sexuality and immigration status are out unless the objective requires them and you can defend that. …

How to install
mdr add tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit/pattern-of-life-from-socials@sha256:40e1cc9f5a6e7ae8The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.402f6b7, 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.
