OSINT Social Analyzer Skill

Cross-platform username investigation using social-analyzer. Searches 1000+ platforms and returns a natural language summary of findings.

Setup (first run only)

pip3 install social-analyzer --break-system-packages

Verify it works:

python3 -m social-analyzer --username "testuser" --top 10 --output json --filter "good"

Running an Investigation

python3 -m social-analyzer 
  --username "{USERNAME}" 
  --metadata 
  --output json 
  --filter "good" 
  --top 100

Deep lookup (slower, more thorough)

python3 -m social-analyzer 
  --username "{USERNAME}" 
  --metadata 
  --extract 
  --output json 
  --filter "good,maybe" 
  --top 300

Platform-specific lookup

# Specific websites
python3 -m social-analyzer --username "{USERNAME}" --websites "youtube twitter instagram tiktok github"

# By content type
python3 -m social-analyzer --username "{USERNAME}" --type "music"

# By country
python3 -m social-analyzer --username "{USERNAME}" --countries "us uk"

Multiple usernames (variants)

python3 -m social-analyzer --username "{NAME1},{NAME2},{NAME3}" --metadata --top 100

Parsing and Summarizing Results

After running the command, parse the JSON output and produce a conversational summary — do NOT dump raw JSON to the user.

What to extract from results

From each detected profile: - website — platform name - url — direct link - rate — confidence score (0–100) - status — "good" / "maybe" / "bad" - metadata.name — display name if available - metadata.bio — bio/description if available - metadata.followers — follower count if available

Summary format (conversational, natural language)

Structure the response like this:

找到 [N] 个账号,以下是主要发现:

**高置信度账号(rate ≥ 80):**
- GitHub (rate: 95): github.com/username — 显示名 "John",有 234 个 follower
- Twitter (rate: 88): twitter.com/username
- Instagram (rate: 82): instagram.com/username — 简介:摄影爱好者

**中等置信度(rate 50–79):**
- Reddit (rate: 65): reddit.com/u/username

共扫描了 100 个平台,[M] 个请求失败(网络超时等),不影响主要结果。

Confidence tiers

  • rate ≥ 80 → 高置信度,几乎确定是同一人
  • rate 50–79 → 中等,值得关注但需人工确认
  • rate < 50 → 低,通常跳过,除非用户要求显示全部

Handling Edge Cases

No results found:

在扫描的 100 个平台中未找到该用户名的公开账号。可能原因:用户名拼写不同、账号已删除、或平台设置了隐私保护。

Command takes too long (>5 min): Reduce scope: --top 50 or specify --websites explicitly.

pip install fails:

pip3 install social-analyzer
# or
pip install social-analyzer --user

Rate limiting from platforms: Some platforms block rapid scanning. Use --mode slow for more polite requests:

python3 -m social-analyzer --username "{USERNAME}" --mode slow --top 50

Privacy & Ethics Reminder

This tool only accesses publicly available information.

Always remind the user: - Results are public data only — no private messages, emails, or passwords - Intended for legitimate use: self-auditing, security research, journalism, law enforcement support - Do not use to stalk, harass, or violate anyone's privacy - Different jurisdictions have different laws around OSINT — use responsibly

Include a one-line reminder at the end of every investigation summary:

Chinese Platform Lookup (cn_lookup.py)

For Chinese social media platforms, use the dedicated script instead of social-analyzer.

Supported platforms

平台 覆盖情况 备注
Bilibili 哔哩哔哩 ✅ 用户名搜索 + 主页信息 最可靠
知乎 Zhihu ✅ 用户名/URL token 搜索 需精确匹配
微博 Weibo ⚠️ 移动端降级搜索 仅存在性检测
小红书 / 抖音 / 微信 ❌ 不支持 强制登录,无公开接口

Running cn_lookup

python3 skills/osint-social/scripts/cn_lookup.py "{USERNAME}"

When to use cn_lookup vs social-analyzer

  • User mentions Chinese platforms, Bilibili, 知乎, 微博 → use cn_lookup.py
  • User mentions username is Chinese or used on Chinese internet → run both
  • General global lookup → use social-analyzer only
# Step 1: Global platforms
python3 -m social-analyzer --username "{USERNAME}" --metadata --output json --filter "good" --top 100

# Step 2: Chinese platforms
python3 skills/osint-social/scripts/cn_lookup.py "{USERNAME}"

Then combine and summarize both outputs together in a single natural language response.
