- useosintUseOSINT/SkillsEntry point for open-source intelligence, investigation and verification work. Routes any identifier — a name, phone number, email address, username, domain, company, photo, crypto address, tail number or IMO — to the right investigation workflow, after setting an authorised scope. Use when asked to investigate, research, verify, vet, check out, look up, background-check, trace, attribute or find someone or something; when a request involves due diligence, KYC or KYB, counterparty or vendor risk, sanctions and PEP screening, AML, fraud, business email compromise, verifying a supplier before payment, recruitment or marketplace scams, insider threat, executive protection, attack-surface review, journalism or fact-checking; or when someone asks "who is this", "who owns this", "is this real", "where did this come from" or "where do I start".

- intellectual-propertycbrock84/headcountCovers what the organization owns and what it is only borrowing — trademarks and clearance, copyright and work-for-hire, patents and trade secrets, open-source license obligations and copyleft reach, and IP terms in customer, contractor and AI-tool agreements. Use this to check whether a name is usable, establish that you own work you paid for, decide how to handle a license obligation in a dependency, or respond to an infringement claim.Other★ 2.1K

- account-researchanthropics/knowledge-work-pluginsResearch a target company and optionally a specific contact - company overview, recent news, likely priorities, and fit against your ICP. Cross-references existing CRM records. Use when the user asks to "research [company]", "look into [company]", "prospect research on [company]", "look up [person]", "intel on [prospect]", "who is [person] at [company]", or "tell me about [company]" when the company is a prospect rather than an existing account.OfficialScience★ 32.8K
- entity-researchmoonlight-lupin/agent-skillsUse when the user says "research this company / person", "background check on X", "any negative press / adverse media on X", "who owns / who runs X", "is X sanctioned / sanctions check on X", "vet this vendor / counterparty / candidate / partner", or "entity search" — deep background research on an entity (a company OR a person) into a cited dossier: identity & background, ownership & key management, adverse / negative media, public sanctions-list name-match signals, PEP indications from public research, and litigation / regulatory history. It RESEARCHES and COMPILES with sources; it is NOT a compliance/AML/CDD determination and NOT a sanctions or PEP clearance — a sanctions-list or PEP signal is a SIGNAL to escalate to a human compliance function, never a "clear" or "block". Research a person only for a legitimate purpose and only from public information.Science★ 112
