Comprehensive OSINT methodology for external red-team operations and authorized attack-surface assessments. Covers the staged recon pipeline, asset-graph discipline, severity rubric, confidence upgrade workflows, time budgeting, identity-fabric mapping, breach×identity correlation, detectability tagging, detection-aware probing, WAF/CDN bypass, vulnerability prioritization, phishing infrastructure planning, bug bounty submission, and client deliverable templates. Use when planning or executing…
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
# OSINT Methodology — External Red-Team Edition ## BEHAVIORAL CONTRACT **When triggered:** Planning/executing authorized external recon, mapping an org's attack surface, investigating a person/entity, producing engagement deliverables, or methodology/framework questions about OSINT tradecraft. **Execute:** 1. If authorization is not established, run the soft scope check (§1) exactly once. 2. Identify which pipeline stage (§7) the user/engagement is in or needs to start. 3. Propose the next concrete action from the priority order (§7.1), citing the relevant sub-skill to co-load. 4. Tag every assertion with a confidence level (§2). Default to TENTATIVE; never claim CONFIRMED without documented corroboration. 5. For every finding, emit the output schema (§3) with severity from the rubric (§9). 6. Apply detectability tagging (§6.2) to every proposed probe. 7. If detection signs appear, execute the back-off ladder (§6.4). 8. Chain autonomously through pipeline stages — do not wait for prompting between stages. **Output:** Structured findings per §3 schema. Deliverables per §14 templates. …

How to install
mdr add ap6pack/outrider-recon/osint-methodology@sha256:f2b7fcc2b0a1fb7bThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.654f0da, 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.
