What this skill does


# Domain Intelligence — Passive OSINT

Passive domain reconnaissance using only Python stdlib.
**Zero dependencies. Zero API keys. Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.**

## Helper script

This skill includes `scripts/domain_intel.py` — a complete CLI tool for all domain intelligence operations.

```bash
# Subdomain discovery via Certificate Transparency logs
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py subdomains example.com

# SSL certificate inspection (expiry, cipher, SANs, issuer)
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py ssl example.com

# WHOIS lookup (registrar, dates, name servers — 100+ TLDs)
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py whois example.com

# DNS records (A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME)
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py dns example.com

# Domain availability check (passive: DNS + WHOIS + SSL signals)
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py available coolstartup.io

# Bulk analysis — multiple domains, multiple checks in parallel
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py bulk example.com github.com google.com
python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/domain_intel.py bulk example.com github.com --checks ssl,dns
```

`SKILL_DIR` is the directory containing this SKILL.md file. All output is structured JSON.

## Available commands

| Command | What it does | Data source |
|---------|-------------|-------------|
| `subdomains` | Find subdomains from certificate logs | crt.sh (HTTPS) |
| `ssl` | Inspect TLS certificate details | Direct TCP:443 to target |
| `whois` | Registration info, registrar, dates | WHOIS servers (TCP:43) |
| `dns` | A, AAAA, MX, NS, TXT, CNAME records | System DNS + Google DoH |
| `available` | Check if domain is registered | DNS + WHOIS + SSL signals |
| `bulk` | Run multiple checks on multiple domains | All of the above |

## When to use this vs built-in tools

- **Use this skill** for infrastructure questions: subdomains, SSL certs, WHOIS, DNS records, availability
- **Use `web_search`** for general research about what a domain/company does
- **Use `web_extract`** to get the actual content of a webpage
- **Use `terminal` with `curl -I`** for a simple "is this URL reachable" check

| Task | Better tool | Why |
|------|-------------|-----|
| "What does example.com do?" | `web_extract` | Gets page content, not DNS/WHOIS data |
| "Find info about a company" | `web_search` | General research, not domain-specific |
| "Is this website safe?" | `web_search` | Reputation checks need web context |
| "Check if a URL is reachable" | `terminal` with `curl -I` | Simple HTTP check |
| "Find subdomains of X" | **This skill** | Only passive source for this |
| "When does the SSL cert expire?" | **This skill** | Built-in tools can't inspect TLS |
| "Who registered this domain?" | **This skill** | WHOIS data not in web search |
| "Is coolstartup.io available?" | **This skill** | Passive availability via DNS+WHOIS+SSL |

## Platform compatibility

Pure Python stdlib (`socket`, `ssl`, `urllib`, `json`, `concurrent.futures`).
Works identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows with no dependencies.

- **crt.sh queries** use HTTPS (port 443) — works behind most firewalls
- **WHOIS queries** use TCP port 43 — may be blocked on restrictive networks
- **DNS queries** use Google DoH (HTTPS) for MX/NS/TXT — firewall-friendly
- **SSL checks** connect to the target on port 443 — the only "active" operation

## Data sources

All queries are **passive** — no port scanning, no vulnerability testing:

- **crt.sh** — Certificate Transparency logs (subdomain discovery, HTTPS only)
- **WHOIS servers** — Direct TCP to 100+ authoritative TLD registrars
- **Google DNS-over-HTTPS** — MX, NS, TXT, CNAME resolution (firewall-friendly)
- **System DNS** — A/AAAA record resolution
- **SSL check** is the only "active" operation (TCP connection to target:443)

## Notes

- WHOIS queries use TCP port 43 — may be blocked on restrictive networks
- Some WHOIS servers redact registrant info (GDPR) — mention this to the user
- crt.sh can be slow for very popular domains (thousands of certs) — set reasonable expectations
- The availability check is heuristic-based (3 passive signals) — not authoritative like a registrar API

cupynumeric-migration-readiness

Included

Pre-migration readiness assessor for porting NumPy to cuPyNumeric. Use BEFORE substantial porting work begins when the user asks whether code will scale on GPU, whether they should migrate to cuPyNumeric, which NumPy patterns transfer cleanly, what must be refactored before porting, or mentions pre-port assessment, scaling analysis, or refactor planning. Inspect the user's source code, look up NumPy usage, cross-reference the cuPyNumeric API support manifest, and distinguish distributed-scaling-friendly patterns from blockers such as unsupported APIs, scalar synchronization, host round-trips, Python/object-heavy control flow, shape/data-dependent branching, and in-place mutation hazards. Produce a verdict of READY, LIGHT REFACTOR, SIGNIFICANT REFACTOR, or NOT RECOMMENDED, with concrete refactor pointers.

token-optimizer

Included

Reduce OpenClaw token usage and API costs through smart model routing, heartbeat optimization, budget tracking, and native 2026.2.15 features (session pruning, bootstrap size limits, cache TTL alignment). Use when token costs are high, API rate limits are being hit, or hosting multiple agents at scale. The 4 executable scripts (context_optimizer, model_router, heartbeat_optimizer, token_tracker) are local-only — no network requests, no subprocess calls, no system modifications. Reference files (PROVIDERS.md, config-patches.json) document optional multi-provider strategies that require external API keys and network access if you choose to use them. See SECURITY.md for full breakdown.
