WAR.DIRECT is a non-commercial, open-source intelligence (OSINT) aggregation platform co-built by Rishi Khiani and Claude (Anthropic) during a time of active conflict. We do not seek to profit from this in any way. All content is sourced from publicly available data only — news RSS feeds, open-source flight tracking APIs, publicly broadcast TV streams, and published media reports. No classified, confidential, or leaked material is used on this platform. Strike data is labeled as "reported" and based on published news. Casualty figures are presented as ranges from named sources . AI-generated analysis is clearly labeled and should not be treated as authoritative. We do not guarantee accuracy…from war.direct

I built a real-time OSINT dashboard pulling 15 live global feedsMar 2026 · github.com · ▲312Sup HN, So I got tired of bouncing between Flightradar, MarineTraffic, and Twitter every time something kicked off globally, so I wrote a dashboard to aggregate it all locally. It’s called Shadowbroker. I’ll admit I leaned way too hard into the "movie hacker" aesthetic for the UI, but the actual pipeline underneath is real. It pulls commercial/military ADS-B, the AIS WebSocket stream (about 25,000+ ships), N2YO satellite telemetry, and GDELT conflict data into a single MapLibre instance. Getting this to run without melting my browser was the hardest part. I'm running this on a laptop…
I built an OSINT tools directory2025 · r00m101.com · ▲53I work on R00M 101, a Reddit-based OSINT profiler. While building it, I realized most open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools are scattered across GitHub, outdated blog posts, or random Discords. So I put together a public-facing directory of 100+ OSINT tools used by analysts, journalists, and security folks, free, filterable, and categorized by risk, platform, and use case. The idea was to make something useful and no-friction. Built with static HTML + SQL backend + a lot of caffeine. Would love feedback on how to improve the UX or tool curation. If anyone wants to contribute tools or help…
