OpenPlanter — Investigation Methodology Skill

Epistemic framework for cross-dataset investigation, entity resolution, and evidence-backed analysis. Extracted from the OpenPlanter recursive investigation agent and enriched with professional OSINT tradecraft (Admiralty System, ACH, FollowTheMoney schema, intelligence cycle methodology).

Claude Code already has the tools. This skill provides the methodology.

When to Use

• Cross-referencing heterogeneous datasets (corporate registries, campaign finance, lobbying, property records, contracts)
• Entity resolution across datasets with inconsistent naming
• Building evidence chains with provenance and confidence tiers
• Structured OSINT investigations requiring epistemic discipline
• Any analysis where claims need to trace to cited source records
