SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It enables teams to perform supply chain investigations on open-source repositories by coordinating evidence collection, hypothesis formation, and structured reporting, reducing time to containment and improving confidence in findings.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • 7-phase multi-agent investigation framework adapted from RAPTOR, covering GitHub Archive, Wayback Machine, GitHub API, local Git analysis, IOC extraction, evidence-backed hypothesis formation and validation, and final forensic report generation.
  • Integrated evidence store and chain-of-custody records to ensure traceability across all phases.
  • Structured final reporting templates to facilitate reproducible investigations and responsible disclosure.

Quick Start

Initialize an OSS Forensics investigation workflow for a target repository.

FAQPage Schema
How do I investigate open-source supply chain compromises in a Git repository?

To investigate open-source supply chain compromises, this Skill coordinates multi-source evidence collection and hypothesis testing across GitHub, Wayback, and local Git data. It maps compromises by detecting force-push erasures, deleted issues, and extracting IOCs within a defined investigation window.

What is the best way to detect force-push erasures and deleted issues in GitHub repositories?

Detecting force-push erasures and deleted GitHub issues is achieved by cross-referencing GitHub API data with Wayback Machine and archival records. The Skill forms and validates evidence-backed hypotheses to confirm whether erasures occurred during the specified investigation window.

Can I extract IOCs and generate forensic reports from open-source repositories?

Yes, you can extract IOCs and generate structured forensic reports from open-source repositories. The Skill outputs a final report containing an evidence registry and chain-of-custody records to ensure traceability and support reproducible investigations.

Does this supply chain investigation approach prevent hallucinated evidence?

Yes, this supply chain investigation approach enforces strict anti-hallucination guardrails and evidence provenance. It uses an integrated evidence store and chain-of-custody records to ensure all extracted IOCs and mapped compromises remain traceable to their original sources.

How do I map supply chain compromises using Wayback Machine and GitHub archival data?

Mapping supply chain compromises with Wayback Machine and GitHub archival data involves a 7-phase multi-agent framework. This framework coordinates evidence collection from multiple sources, validates findings, and outputs a structured forensic report with an evidence registry.

What is needed to start an open-source forensics investigation for supply chain security?

To start an open-source forensics investigation for supply chain security, you initialize the workflow for a target repository. The Skill then coordinates multi-source evidence collection across GitHub and Wayback Machine, requiring no additional dependencies to begin the 7-phase process.
